Hi All,
One of our vans got ticketed whilst unloading on non-restricted double yellow lines. We appealed with supporting evidence but this got rejected because the van was near a junction. Can anyone see anything incorrect about the council's letter before we pay? Cheers. |

yeh when i used to get tickets on my leased van, the lease company would send me the ticket details (and charge £20 for the privilege). I would then get the charge reversed once I won the appeal.
hopefully a letter to the "head of parking" will stop us needing to pursue it that far? |

Regardless, you need to get in touch with the leasing company ahead of time. Some leasing companies are known to simply pay the penalty and then demand that you pay, rather than following the proper procedure to transfer liability. You need to ensure that if an NtO is served on the leasing company, they appeal it on the basis that they are a leasing company and the vehicle is on lease to your friend. Providing the leasing company does this, the NtO will be cancelled and a new NtO will be sent to your friend, which eliminates the risk of the leasing company paying or messing up the procedure. -------------------- If you would like assistance with a penalty charge notice, please post a thread on https://www.ftla.uk/index.php

And make sure that the leasing company has the right details for your mate, current address etc. Right load of muppets these lot are, can't answer the question so just trot out the same company line... If this goes to adjudication, sting them for costs, even if they enter a Do not Contest. |
