This has been dragging on a while now so i'm after some advice, here's the background.
This is a company lease car, they pay all PCN's immediately then inform the driver, they have been no help with this at all, just stating it's their company policy to pay immediately etc.
My wife was driving not me, happened back in May but still trying to argue it, it was Manchester Oxford St. bus gated area, not disputing she drove there, just the fact I got 2 identical PCN's (apart from the PCN numbers) same date, time and photo.
When I got the 2 PCN's email from the lease company, I immediately filled in the MCC appeal form online. Got a reply by letter (after 3 weeks, sent to lease company not me) stating already paid so nothing to appeal, no notice of rejection of appeal, etc etc. Basically fobbed off and ignored the fact there are 2 tickets for same offence.
Sent 3 further emails to MCC representations email address, only replies I get are acknowledgements of my email then nothing.
Tried ringing a number I was given but it just rings and rings, never answered.
Also faxed my continued complaints about having 2 tickets for same offence.
The leasing company charges me a £10 admin fee (+VAT) for each PCN, so it has cost me £84 for a £30 bus lane ticket so far (already paid immediately as mentioned).
I've read that 2 tickets issued for same offence is illegal, is this correct?
I'm only trying to get 1 of them squashed but if I have a case for getting both of them squashed, even better. I assume something along the lines of a technical system fault therefore both can be dismissed?
Thanks
