Hi All,
Quick question. As far as I understand, a date of service means the day is was served, in the case of a printed PCN and for one sent by post, it is 2 days later.
If a Notice to Owner makes reference to a PCN and gives the same day as 'Date of Service' as the day of the alleged contravention, is it possible for the council to state that the PCN was sent by post, or does the date on the NTO clearly prove that that is not the case?
Basically, I got a NTO and I did not receive a PCN at the time or by post. I am writing that to the council but am concerned that they will lie and say the PCN was sent by post. Will the date of service mentioned on their NTO prove that it was definitely not a PCN by post?
Thanks
Mo
