SIP Parking Charge Notice- Appeal assistance required!

lightwood345

I received a parking fine letter on the 7th of September for a parking charge on the 28th of July. The time states 4:58:45pm- 19:00:01. It states the appeal window is closed and I can’t find any other way of getting in contact with them besides letters. The fine is £115, the reason for my appeal is, I used an app called ‘RingGo’ and have a receipt for purchasing a ticket. My ticket was valid from 5pm til 8am the next day. And it would have taken me a minute or so to purchase the ticket. Does anyone have any ideas whether the appeal will be valid and if so, how can I go about this. Btw this is the first letter I have received so I don’t think it’s fair that I have only received one letter and that’s after the appeal window is closed.

Its definitely not a fine, its a Parking Charge Notice PCN letter from SIP PARKING, an IPC AOS company 

Its not £115 either, it's typically £100 or less, never more than £100 to start with , check the signs !

SIP are extremely unlikely to cancel the PCN 

What is the allegation on the letter. ?  Non payment. ? Unpaid tariff time. ?  Taking too long to pay. ?

You could try an emailed complaint with a copy of the RingGo charge receipt , I suspect that it will be rejected 

I would suspect that SIP issued a windscreen PCN to the driver on the day in question and got no reply ( regardless of whether the driver found it on the vehicle or not. )

You could definitely post an appeal letter with proof of the RingGo receipt included 

Fairness never comes into it, it's currently an unregulated industry, despite parliament trying to regulate it

You are to late to appeal
do nothing now unless you get a court claim

Ignore it all. Keep all the letters together.

Come back if you get a court claim from SIP which you must not ignore.
