       Newham - code 12 - Parked in residents bays without valid permit
       - Manor Park Road E12

       Hi all, need your help with this PCN that was issued on Friday.
       PCN

       Summary
       I was visiting my parents with my husband and had parked outside
       their house. My husband remained in the passenger seat as he was
       on a work call and I went inside to use the laptop and login to
       activate a digital visitor permit. My husband had seen the CEO
       approach the vehicle typing in the reg and walk past. The CEO
       then returns a few minutes later with the ticket already printed
       and slaps it on the windscreen. My husband confronts the CEO and
       explains that I am inside trying to purchase a visitor permit
       but fell on deaf ears as it had already been issued. The PCN was
       issued/printed at 10:06 and I managed to purchase the permit at
       10:10.
       I feel this is grossly unfair, especially given the fact that I
       was trying to purchase a visitor permit from the outset. My
       husband was still in the vehicle and my parents front door was
       wide open. It was sneaky of the CEO to print the ticket away
       from the vehicle to avoid being challenged!

       Time is always allowed to obtain any parking ticket, including a
       virtual visitor permit, so you should submit representations
       that your wife was inside the house obtaining a visitor permit.
       Make sure to include a printout of the permit.
       Don't expect them to cancel straightaway. You are submitting an
       informal challenge, and councils ruthlessly game the system by
       refusing virtually all informal reps, knowing that if they do,
       most people then just cough up, not wanting to risk the full
       penalty at adjudication.

       [member=1339]sc2509[/member] I see the PCN is at £65.00 which
       suggests you challenged it and the council issued one of their
       standard fob-off letters?
       In which case please show us what you sent, and the council's
       response.

       So i received a rejection letter by email on 19th April,
       following my informal challenge on 21st March:

       I had my laptop stolen so don't have a copy of the challenge
       that I made, would I be able to request this from the Council?
       But I basically made the points above, and provided a copy of
       the permit receipt. Still waiting for the NTO to come through
       the post.

       What tosh they write ! What on earth are you supposed to do when
       arriving at a house in the zone with no permit, other than
       obtain a visitor permit. As I said before, time is allowed to
       obtain parking tickets, visitor permits, discs for disc zone
       parking, etc. I would have no hesitation in taking this to
       adjudication, as clearly their staff don't even know the law
       they purport to enforce.

       This should be easily winnable at the tribunal but the council
       will almost certainly refuse to cancel at the NTO stage.
