    Easy when you know how, and it's non-POFA!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

     Hey, silly question but how did you calculate the 19 days? Based on the image you shared

    - date of incident was 14/10 
    - Data of notice was 22/11 

    which means notice was sent 39 days after the incident, minus 14 days of POFA notification, so the number of days by which the period has been exceeded is 25. 

    Sorry I've received a similar letter and trying to reuse your template. 

    My date of incident was 28/10 and date of sending the notice was 30/11 - based on my calculations the number of days by which the 14day period has been exceeded is 19. Is that right?

    Not if there was a windscreen PCN on the day.

  • Agreed @Coupon-mad, although this didn't apply to myself or Kellen I believe.
  • I have adapted some of the appeals that others have made on this forum and am thinking of submitting the following for my appeal. Any thoughts?

    Dear Sir/Madam
    Appeal against Parking Charge Notice (PCN) no. LG7132058

    I dispute your 'parking charge', as the keeper of the vehicle. I deny any liability or contractual agreement and I will be making a complaint about your predatory conduct to your client landowner, Gatwick Airport Ltd, as well as to my local MP.

    I contest and appeal this ‘parking charge’, on the grounds that you have failed to comply with Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012; the issue date of your PCN was 19 days later than the day after which the specified period of parking ended, and not within 14 days as required in paragraph 9 of the aforementioned Act. Therefore, keeper liability does not apply. There will be no admissions as to who was driving, and no assumptions can be drawn.

    You must also include a close up actual photograph of the sign that you contend was at the location on the material date, including evidence that it was properly illuminated on the date and time in question.

    Yours sincerely,

    *******

    I have just used this to contest a NTK for South Terminal drop off last month. They issued it outside the 14 day window for ANPR fines under POFA. 

    On the picture evidence provided they also edited the image by placing a solid black box on the cars front window so I was also unable to see who was driving. What else have they edited in the images?

    NTK cancelled! Thank you
