Double Dip Cheltenham Spa Railway Station

RunningBlind

I have been sent a 'double dip' PCN by APCOA, (October 2025); nothing unusual in circumstances, in/out to drop-off train passenger in morning; returned evening in/out to pick-up; in/out both times within minutes, no waiting around.

I've read the "Newbies" thread (thanks to all for information there), prepared draft appeal, but would like advice on the following, if anyone has suggestions:-

Plan A

1. Is there any point in contacting the landowner to assist cancelling the PCN?  Its difficult enough to find who is the landowner (landholder) in this instance & I feel unlikely to get a response before appeal deadline.  I do intend to submit a formal complaint.
2. Does the PPC have to disclose who the landowner is (evidence request in Appeal)?

Plan B Appeal to PPC

1. Any reason not to submit asap?  I am in day 11.
2. I am proposing to request all ANPR vehicle images for relevant day in addition to the 2 used to construct the PCN.  There should be at least 2 more images (morning exit & evening re-entry).
3. Any reason not to state the vehicle was elsewhere and not parked on the car park, PPC has made a mistake, etc.,?

Many thanks.

No reason to wait and no reason not to state the vehicle was elsewhere and not parked on the car park, PPC has made a mistake. However it's a good idea not to admit to driving.

Penalty Notice or Parking Charge Notice?
