Parking Charge - Britannia Parking
Hi,
Can't believe I'm back here with another PCN to Keeper this time from Britannia Parking.
I just have a quick question:
This is for a carpark in Glastonbury where we bought a ticket from a machine but were approx 1/2hr late returning to the car.
My question though relates to the timing on receipt of this PCN.
The date of contravention was 17/02/26
The date of issue of the notice is 23/02/26
However, I have only just received this in the post today 4/3/26; this is later than the 14 day window from the date of contravention but I have no real proof of this as the envelope is not date stamped.
It would be my word against theirs but do I have any recourse on this at all?
Advice appreciated - thank you

That was given in time; if it was issued on 23/02/26 it is deemed delivered two days later. You can check here: -

I have a quick question please before I appeal this PCN having just received a final reminder.
I can't visit the car park as it is 2hrs away unfortunately.
We paid with a credit card and so it shows a payment to Britannia on the date, so there is a proof of payment.
We also have the original purchased ticket.
We paid for 3hrs but were over time by 29 mins.
The actual PCN simply shows the time the car entered the carpark and the time it exited. It doesn't show anywhere that we exceeded our ticket at all. It simply says:
" As the motorist has contravened the terms and conditions detailed on the signage, a Parking Charge has been issued."
Is this sufficient or are they meant to detail the minutes we have exceeded the ticket by?
Thanks for help

Show us both sides of that NTK.
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

I wouldn't bother to appeal. Better to ignore it and defend a claim (as long as you don't go moving house without telling them).
