Westminster windscreen ticket.Restricted street? No unloading.No road markings.Wrong postcode??

Foolmethrice

Hi, need some help with this situation..

We have recently received a windscreen ticket on 15/06/2024 around 21:40pm for : CODE 02 - parked or loading/unloading in a restricted street where waiting and loading/unloading restrictions are in force.

However..

1. The online postcode for Clifford st (Westminster) is W1S 2LG. The street address on the tickets says Clifford st (E1). If this is the case then this ticket is incorrect.

2. Clifford st ( Westminster, London ) is a one way street. There are no visible restricted/unloading signs for a driver approaching the street at night from one of the side entrances to the middle of the one way Clifford street.

3.There are no yellow line road markings on this street or nearby UNLOADING/RESTRICTED signs until you exit the vehicle and walk in and around a certain direction. On foot you have to be very observant as they are at the end of the street and very confusing. 

4. The vehicle is parked outside of the timezones of the parking time posts.

5. The ticket was appealed within the 14 days, online and a rejection reply was sent to email. The COUNCIL did not state the postcode error on the issued windscreen ticket.

6. Having just received the rejection letter there are under 14 days to pay discounted amount or appeal.

Is there an admin error here on the ticket, and can this ticket be fought effectively?
