I think it is fair to say that the BB was not clearly
displayed..... and even the most sympathetic of adjudicators
would struggle should it come to that.
Barring any technical issues with the PCN I would be thinking on
an apologetic plea for discretion, in a rush with a nadgy two
year old with special needs, clean forgot to check the BB was
clearly displayed..... here is a copy of the BB.... ensure you
confirm that the little one was with you.
Many councils have a one strike policy with BB holders and this
sort of error and will cancel the first time so worth asking in
the discount period.... they should re-issue the discount even
if they say no.

I'm happy to do as you suggest. I figured out what i have been
doing wrong online (I've been entering "B" "0" (as in the number
zero) but it should be "B" "O" as in BO[LOTON]. However, when i
try to go further it now tells me "Unfortunately you are unable
to appeal this charge at this time" - even though it is not yet
two weeks. Any advice?

You are on day 12 so don't lose time trying to fix web link.
Email addy on back of PCN....use that.
Ensure you include PCN number and your name and address

For Dancing Dad - cp8759 - Incandescent (forgive me for anyone I
have missed).
Big thank you to you all, as the council have agreed to waiver
the PCN. Here is there response...
"Thank you for your correspondence regarding the above mentioned
Penalty Charge Notice.
The Council allows individuals one cancelled penalty charge
notice when they have incorrectly displayed a disabled badge. On
future occasions, please ensure that the disabled badge is
displayed with the front facing forward showing the expiry date
from
the outside of the vehicle.
As you have produced a copy of your badge with your challenge I
am able to waive the penalty charge notice on this occasion.
Please ensure that the disabled badge is displayed correctly, as
subsequent notices may not be cancelled."
Thank you again!

That'll do nicely..well done.
Now please learn from this...no conkers, hats or sunglasses. LOL
For what it is worth, I now have one of those wallets that hold
the BB and timeclock...keeps them together and makes it easier
to open and put on dash

I will indeed learn, and whilst I have been putting off getting
the wallet you are right to lead me in that direction. I will
follow, thanks again.
