I moved house in August and booked a parking bay suspension outside my house to allow for my car and the removals lorry to load up. I made a preliminary booking for the suspension for 3 days. I included my car registration number in the application but of course didn't know the registration number of the removals firm's lorry. Before payment was due I realised I would only need the suspension for two days so I rebooked the suspension. In the vehicle registration section I put - registration numbers not yet known. I accidentally forgot to re-enter my own registration number. I paid for the suspension. On the removal day, as my property was going into storage I needed to use my own car for moving heavy plant pots as living plants can't go into storage. XAt 7.20am on the first day of the removals I came downstairs to find that my car had been ticketed at 7.18am. The bay suspension was from midnight, but the resident's parking in the zones I lived in does not become active until 9.00am. I challenged the PCN with the local council explaining that it was my own car, needed for the removals. They have rejected this appeal, even though I provided the evidence that I did include the vehicle registration number on the earlier document. This seems crazy. They didn't ticket the removals lorry and they didn't have the registration number for that. I have stated that it was my car and that I needed it for removals. On what grounds can I make a formal representation? What are my chances of success? £35 parking fine is not a huge amount of money but it's the principle. I really don't feel that I should pay the parking charge after paying around £150 for the suspension of the bay for my own house move.
