You can only add to the existing thread, so no matter what you do, it will stick it last.

I would add the name of the hospital to the title.

Hi all,
Today, yes sunday! my father received another parking fine from the same hospital Princess Alexandra Hospital Harlow Gggggrrrrrrr.
Again I will go through the same process.
The cameras do not pick up the BLUE BADGE. Yes its registered and we are all aware that blue badge holders can park free.
So so annoying!!!!
Just a heads up
Best regards Kg

Disabled people

A disabled person is a holder of a valid Blue Badge attending hospital as a patient or visitor or is a disabled person employed by the hospital trust.

Disabled patients and visitors receive free parking for the duration of their attendance at, or visit to, the hospital. Disabled employees receive free parking while at the hospital for purposes relating to their employment.

Plan A with hospitals is to contact PALS and demand (politey) that they get it cancelled. It isn't one of those hospitals where you have to register your blue badge at reception us it?

hi Le Kirk,
Blue badge registered. Emailed PALS this morning see the reply they sent me..
Their car park cameras only pick up registerings not clearly displayed Blue Badges!
As you can see I have been here before so will go thriugh the same process again Ggrrr
Also my father parked there last week as a follow up to my mothers treatment so no doubt another ticket post.
Clearly this is not a good system to catch non payers as it clearly does not work when it comes to Blue Badge holders.

Tell them you are not "appealing" but complaining and they cannot ditch their responsibilities. Refer them to the NHS  parking principles here

...and in particular, quote these words from that 'parking principles' document:-
