Can’t pay for parking?

Parked in an NCP car park in Manchester and upon leaving tried to pay at the machine which said registrations were captured by CCTV, but when I entered my registration it came up blank. I’ve tried the ‘Pay Later’ online service, but again it does not recognise the number plate. You have 24 hours to pay or you get a PCN. Are they likely to manually review the footage the ANPR has failed to identify?

  • Take screen shots of everything that shows you are unable to make a payment, and then if a tickets does appear, you have proof for an appeal.   You should also have taken a photo of the machine not letting you pay as you left the car park, but you'll know next time.
