I have received this morning a Penalty Charge Notice for entering and stopping in a box junction in “Eastern Bay Link Road, Splott.”
No idea where that it is but I’m obviously bang to rights.
A lovely final gesture from Cardiff to me.
See you all at Ashton Gate.
I just got notification of a £100 fee (reduced to £60 if paid within 28 days) for spending 2 hours and 40 minutes in a motorway services area on my way back from the Peterborough away game. Expensive snooze. It would haved been cheaper to stay in an hotel!Quote:

Isn't there a 14 day window to issue the notice? If so aren't they out of time?Quote:

It was then that I noticed the $115 ticket that was given out at 4:51pm. Towed after 9 ****ing minutes. Bullshit!
I assume that the PCN is from a company like Parking Eye.Quote:

There was also no material loss for the Service Station for you overstaying by 40 mins.
They'll likely withdraw the PCN but if not then request a POPLA reference number and go through their appeals process. You'll find templates to use on pepipoo forums.
The legal timeline for issue is normally backed by statute so police or LA issued. Yours will be from a private parking company.Quote:

They did a 1st class job concerning a parking eye type of ticket I received in March relating to an incident 5 years previously. Cost me £40 and within 24hrs had a letter in the post saying the [£360] bill had been cancelled.
I should add this had reached the Court stage, so it was critical they got it right !
Absolute contempt being shown to motorists from many local councils at the moment. Will get worse too as many more parking spaces are removed. It's a serious stress for many people and often very unfair
We must be leading the world in this new revenue grabbing industry ( taxing by the back door ) your politicians are gladly exploiting the poor and rich , I do feel sorry for those on tight budget strings these fines would hurt .
No speeding fines since 2006, then 2 in a week, £9 for speeding in the roadworks Berlin Autobahn, the £95 for speeding in the roadworks around Antwerp. Bit imbalanced!
£9 was probably for going too slow on the autobahn.Quote:

Easy money, but I may try to appeal it.
A car parked near us has "DO NOT PARK HERE" scratched with a key I guess right across its bonnet, I assume by an angry neighbour. Extreme.
The counterpoint to that is I remember someone posting on here that they left their car parked near the ground overnight and when they went back to get it the next day someone had replaced a missing windscreen wiper for them.Quote:
