National Parking Control Ltd - rejected my appeal

hi, I was parked at the gym in a disabled bay and forgot to display my blue badge, slipped my mind on two days in a row. I recieved a ticket in the POST (I never received a yellow ticket on my car), approx 10 days from the incident. I appealed it using the template but it was rejected.

National Parking Control Ltd are not BOPA members but I am not sure about IPC, what can I do? Shall I ignore or do I have to pay

    Have you approached the gym to get it cancelled?

    That’s from the parking company, not from the gym. If the car park belongs to the gym they can cancel the parking tickets. That is by far the easiest route.

    Complain to the gym manager and attach a copy of the Blue Badge.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Read the NEWBIES thread for all stages.  

    We do our best to point you in the right direction but we are here in our own time and can't answer on a hundred threads a day about what happens and what to ignore and theoretical future options that the sticky thread more than covers already.  This is why we have the resource of the NEWBIES thread.

    No-one pays.
