Is this a valid ticket or unfair?

I have received a ticket. This signed to me suggested that between 10-4 you have to pay, which I did via the proper methods. But at 16.18 I received a ticket. Am I right to challenge this ticket?

  • No idea from that description.
    Where was this? 
    Who issued the PCN?
    What was the actual reason given on the PCN?
    What exactly did the signage say?

    Apologies, there should have been a picture of the signage attached. See below. I parked at 14.20 and paid for parking until 4pm via the phone line.

    As this is a council matter,  please post your query over on the FTLA parking forum website after reading their posting requirements first,  to get the correct advice

    The yellow bit at the top of the sign says No Parking from 4pm to 7pm.
    If you were parked there at 1618, that's 18 minutes into the prohibited period.
    Agree you should try FTLA for this.
