Hi all, I received the PCN below for not parking in a marked bay. Where do I stand with complaining about this ? I thought I’d parked in a bay, admittedly it wasn’t marked out but the space where I parked was the exact same size as a parking bay. I’ve had a look and there is a whole row of 7 cars that are parked on different coloured paving slabs but they aren’t actually marked bays. How was I supposed to know that where I was parking wasn't classed as a bay ? Thanks in advance mark

Where do I stand with complaining about this ? The parking company and the 'independent' appeal service won't help you. So first of all complain to the retail centre but that will go one of two ways - either they'll help you or simply say you have to deal with the parking company. Ultimately, this is something that would need to be argued at court - we can't see a lot from the pictures but if it is unclear where the bays are then you have a good chance. Is this the location?

Hi Jlc, yes this is the location, I was parked where the lee is a bin on google maps. It also shows where there is a row of unmarked bays. I’ve just noticed that there is an area marked out no parking, so this makes it even more deceiving where I parked 🤷🏼♂️

'Marked bays' is tenuous to me.
If that area wasn’t to be parked in then it should have the yellow box with 'no parking' too! Looks like a honeypot area to me where they will issue many many tickets... -------------------- RK=Registered Keeper, OP=Original Poster (You!), CoFP=Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty, NtK=Notice to Keeper, NtD=Notice to Driver
