So I have emailed the questionnaire regarding the six year old ticket and Im awaiting the court date I imagine now.
As mentioned earlier, I have received a second PCN from very recently where I wasnt the driver and which occurred at the end of Jan 2018. I sent the appeal and have today received an email rejecting my appeal
This is what they have to say
We refer to your appeal in respect of the above Charge Notice (CN) received on *********.
Having considered the points you have raised and reviewed our records, we are unable to accept your appeal. Our
main reason(s) for this decision are as follows:
The signs at the car park make it clear that the land is private property and that a Charge of £100 will be levied if
vehicles park outside of the Terms and Conditions displayed. The signs state that a valid Pay & Display ticket must
be purchased and clearly displayed in the vehicle parked. The above detailed vehicle was seen parked and
displaying a ticket which had expired and was therefore invalid. The expiry time was clearly displayed on the front of
the ticket purchased. Motorists should ensure that they check the expiry time before leaving their vehicle parked, as it
is their responsibility to ensure that they are able to return to their vehicle before the stated time, or else to purchase
more time if thought necessary. The vehicle parked after the expiry of time of the Pay & Display ticket purchased and
you became liable for the Charge advertised.
We note that you have declined to name the driver of your vehicle at the time of the incident in question. It is
important that we make you aware that in this case we may pursue you as the registered keeper of the vehicle for
the outstanding Charge, as per Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (PoFA) .
The notice sent to you clearly states: Please be warned: that if, after the period of 28 days beginning with the day
after the Issue Date of this Notice, the amount of the unpaid Parking Charge specified in this Notice has not been
paid in full and we do not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, we will
have the right to recover from the registered keeper, any unpaid balance of the Parking Charge. This Notice will be
deemed to have been received by you on the second working day after the Issue Date stated above unless the
contrary is proved.
We have fully reviewed this case and we are satisfied that the Charge Notice was correctly issued. We are unable to
accept the mitigating circumstances raised in your representations, your appeal is therefore rejected and the charge
will stand; photographic evidence which supports this can be viewed at

What you should do next. Either
1. Pay the Charge Notice (CN): In order to settle the Charge, the payment of £60.00 to reach us by 16/03/2018 or
£100.00 to reach us by 30/03/2018 must be made. Failure to pay this charge within the stated times, may result in
Debt Recovery Action being taken and further costs up to an additional £60 being incurred.
Payments can be made online at
www.myparkingcharge.co.uk by following the links for "Pay Now", or over the
phone by calling 0845 226 9138 by using a valid Credit or Debit Card.
OR:
2. Appeal to the Independent Appeals Services (IAS): If you believe this decision is incorrect, you are entitled to
appeal to the IAS. In order to appeal, the IAS will need the following information (which is also contained in the
subject header of this correspondence).
Please could someone advise what the next step with this one is?
Many thanks once more
