NCP PCN - LEASE CAR

marco1495

Hi guys, 

I was hoping you could help me with a charge received by NCP. 

To cut it short, this is my error, I was going to pay for the parking after the stay by using the "Pay later" NCP offers though I sadly forgot. 

I was panicked when I received the charge today and responded to them before reading the helpful posts on here sadly. I accepted responsibility and said it was my error but I had to leave early due to an emergency and because of this forgot to pay for the parking within the time period. I asked they consider this and allow me to pay what I should have done initially.

Please see the below information: 

DATE OF INCIDENT: 28/08/21

DATE OF SENDING THIS NOTICE: 16/09/21

PAY BY DATE: 14/10/21

Only other relevant thing I can think of is we received the PCN through our Lease holder as the car is a lease. Though to confirm, when I appealed I did give my name and address, so I think I have snookered myself here. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I answered you in your other thread , so this is a duplicate , so should be ignored 🙃🙃🙃

Oh no I thought I put this in the right place! Haha. 

Please can you direct me to the Lease section this should go to?

This would've been so easy to beat if only you hadn't panicked.

Almost every single parking company can be easily beaten when a leased or hired car is involved and the driver's identity is not divulged.

Hi Keith, 


Thanks for getting back to me. 

I know, I'm kicking myself as we speak. Is there anything that can be done? 

The letter is dated as 16/09 but the incident was on 28/08. Does it factor into it that they sent it after 14 days? 

We also didn't receive it until today as it was sent on via our lease company.

Irrelevant if you admitted to driving !! 😭😭😭

As Redx says.

It is also irrelevant because they are allowed extra time to get your name and address from the lessor.

As explained in POFA as I said in your duplicate thread , and the bottom of the first post in the newbies FAQ sticky thread near the top of the forum in announcements , in the various advice posts by member Edna basher. 😁😁😁😆

I did not ask you to open a second discussion thread , just to read the newbies FAQ sticky thread
