Southwark to refund recipients of bus lane PCNs issued under the
wrong act!
By: Hippocrates Date: August 6, 2025, 4:47 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Having threatened them with Judicial Review, they have now
stated this:
1. How many code 34 j PCNs have been issued under the London
Local Authorities
and Transport for London Act 2003 Act?
10,422 have been issued on an incorrect template
2. How much revenue has been raised?
None - they are all to be cancelled and refunded or £485,220.00
which is to be
refunded
3. When was this wording introduced?
The incorrect template was copied over the bus lane template on
12 February
2025, the correct bus lane template was put back in place on 12
June 2025.
**************
I have written confirmation from one officer that their PCNs
were correct! If I went into the classroom and described
Beethoven as a Baroque composer, I would be given my P45:
Southwark Parking Services Admail 4197 London SE1 1ZW T: 0344
800 2736 E: parking@southwark.gov.uk
Notice of Rejection of Representations - Road Traffic Act 1991
(as amended) London Local Authorities Acts 1996 (as amended)
CCTV - Bus Lane Contravention
Dear (Mr Bond)
Thank you for your recent representations made in connection
with the issue of the above penalty charge notice (PCN).
We have carefully considered what you say but we have decided
not to cancel your Penalty Charge Notice (PCN).
We sent you a PCN because our camera evidence shows your vehicle
in a bus lane at a time when only buses are allowed there.
The bus lane is enforced at all times.
You stated that the contents of the payment website is unhinged.
We are satisfied that the payment website is satisfactory and
provides all required information.
Whilst we acknowledge you stated that the notice was issued
under the wrong act; this is incorrect.
I have contacted one newspaper already.

Thanks mrm! More to follow...............The dearly departed
Nigel Wise is looking down favourably, I hope, on my humble
efforts I am sure. I miss him. 8) He got Richmond to refund a
million and the parking manager sacked. The guy who took over,
Stephen Hardy, was a model parking manager who actually listened
and applied common sense. I formed a good friendship with him
and he subsequently moved to Epsom - but I made it quite clear
that I was a "poacher" and not a "gamekeeper" as Nigel would
say.

De nada. Story should be in the press tomorrow. If one divides
the figure to be paid back by the number of rate payers, I
reckon it works out at £1.58 per household, not including the
cost of sending out fake PCNs and fake notices of rejection.
485,220.00 divided by 306,400.

Great work mr Hippo 👏

Thanks. [member=7]mrmustard[/member] has done a wonderful blog
on this for which I am most grateful - he and I go back a few
years.
I wanted to use more "sexy" language and, to bastardise
Aristotle's syllogism i.e. if A=B and B=C then A=C, I suggested
this:
Fake tickets=Fake Notices of Rejections=Real money. 8)
The buck stops with the Parking Manager and not APCOA. Whoever
it is should resign. I will be suing them, if necessary, for my
costs in terms of educating them, having had the effrontery to
write that I was incorrect.
It is wholly unacceptable that an unpaid parking campaigner and
representative at the London Tribunals should have to educate
such incompetent staff who hold positions of power in that they
issue defective documents, including notices of rejection,
which threaten people to pay the council. Following the story of
last year in which I won a case against them (2240143117), they
changed the wording to its correct version and then, for some
reason, changed it again to the wrong Act! So, from June 12th,
they have now produced four versions! This is an utter disgrace
and heads should roll.
More to follow: this is just the tip of the iceberg.
