    Hello

    I'm looking for some help.

    I got a PCN letter in a supermarket car park saying I was there for over 3 hours (photo of entering and exiting) which is not true. I'm now beyond the "allowable time" to get a discounted "fine"

    Can somone help me with how to deal with this?

    thanks
    Can you be a bit more specific? Are you saying that you were not there for the full period Are you saying that you left and returned but the middle images of you leaving and returning are missing?

    Correct I was not there the full period they claim.

    Just checking  -  why is it not true  -  were two visits made, perhaps by two different drivers?

    I was not there for the period they claim.

    As advised - just use the Template appeal and DO NOT use the words "I was not there" nor anything about "I" or "me" because Horizon ones are dead easy to win, as long as you appeal as keeper. Not driver.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    For sanity their "portal" is asking for many personal details, which I dont wish to submit, on the appeal page which appears needing input. There are 8 options for "representation reason" - which is to be selected?

    Thank you.

    Of course you put your name & address in. They already have it! You are just responding.

    Obviously just tick a box that doesn't say "I".

    There are two options: I am DVLA keeper or Keeper (not DVLA), which?

    Is it your name on the vehicle's V5C (logbook)?
