PCN 'No parking outside of a marked bay' on 18/10

Copy of additional photos uploaded on their payment portal: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-pN_m8Re2fBbZ91OU4w7QghVe3cPJgWI?usp=drive_link
They have the driver's identification in an entry log. Sadly, the driver lacks a sense of humour as shown in the thread posted yesterday

Given the driver's identification on entering the car park and the additional photos that they have uploaded on the payment portal, do I need to customise the blue text of the template? The main argument is that the car park area was littered with leaves and the bay markings were not visible.
Another point to note is that the black car next to the vehicle in question was parked at an angle so the driver had to park a bit more to the right. I'm not sure of its relevance.

I'm trying to identify who to contact for Plan A but it's unlikely as the Indian Visa Centre at Hounslow doesn't entertain any contact outside a pre-booked in-person appointment and that is only for applicants. I'll call their phone line tomorrow when they open.
The photo uploaded on Google Drive for the parking restrictions was visible.
Parking was paid using the sippi parking app and it's receipt is in the transaction history.0 -
Just ignore UKCPM. There's no appeal.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Not even the first appeal? Is the argument about fallen leaves not strong enough?0
-
No argument is strong enough with IPC AOS members , they only want money, not platitudes or excuses
What are you expecting to achieve by the act of appealing. ?1 -
I gathered from the newbies thread that the next step is to appeal with the blue text from the template but I’m now confused by the comment to ignore and not appeal, sorry.0

Appeal as keeper if you feel that you must, using the blue text template, but expect a rejection
Your choices are appeal or ignore, bearing in mind that plan A is actually the best option for obtaining a cancellation1 -
It's quite obvious that drivers are now expected to be road sweepers, where are the marked bays they refer to?
