PAYING A PCN AND CHALLENGING A PCN

Paying a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) issued by a Civil Enforcement Officer (CEO)
•The Date of the offence is day 1.
•The council should receive a payment by day 28 otherwise it may issue a Notice to Owner.
50% Discount Payment will be accepted if received by day 14.
Acceptance of Discount Payment after day 14 is at the council’s discretion.

Paying a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) issued by Post
•The Date of the offence is day 1.
•The council should receive a written challenge to the PCN by day 28 but ideally day 14.
50% Discount Payment will be accepted if received by day 14 (day 21 for offences detected on camera).
Acceptance of Discount Payment after day 14 / day 21 is at the council’s discretion.

In Both Cases:

Some people who receive a PCN will not be able to respond to it in time. If this happens for any reason you should inform the council immediately.

If you do nothing, the council may enforce payment as debt recovery through the County Court.

SERVICES

At (no Win No fees) Ticket Appeal we look at each case individually and appeal accordingly. if your appeal is rejected you don't pay us a penny. And we will advise you further if its advisable to pay the fine or carry on with the appeal.


When we win your appeal then payment of £10 is to be made either via pay pal, direct bank deposit/bank transfer or uncrossed postal order.



The parking ticket appeal process is difficult, lengthy and confusing. Most people (or company) don’t appeal; those that do have limited success. We can help by formulating and sending  appeals against PCNs on your (or company's) behalf.



We can save you (or company) money. Depending on the number of PCNs you receive and the type of offences, it’s likely we can save you a lot of money.

Send us your testimonial and we will add it to the site
