Wrong plate same car

Posts: 2 Newbie

Hi, My daughter recently changed her plate to a private plate & when she went to park for free on the road with the Ringo app because she had not updated her private plate she selected her original number plate , received the PCN challenged it provided her documents as it was very recent for the change over (within 2 weeks) they have refused the to cancel. Surely it's an hour free parking regardless the vehicle is the same one & they are refusing on the basis its the drivers responsibility to ensure correct details are entered . This seems unfair as it's a minor error car parking was free anyway..... what to do please
