Re: PCN - Incorrect Parking Location (1 digit)

Hey all,
Received the NOR, which I was supposed to post a few weeks ago
but procrastianted heavily, as expected ignored reasons i
mentioned in my appeal from the previous post - See attached.

As I was checking I noticed I may have gone over the 28th days
to respond to appeal in the tribunal, which I did today
(14/01/26), letter was dated 17/12/25 - Can someone confirm if
I'm ok or they'll now increase the charge by 50% or if that +2
day rule applies that I've only heard being mentioned on this
forums, as it was a letter received.?
For now I've appealed with no extra reasoning other then stating
that same reasons as before - Is there anything else I can add
or counter based on the NOR response above?

If London Tribunals has accepted your appeal request, then only
the full PCN penalty is payable if you lose.

It let me submit the appeal and got a automated case ref, but I
would have thought the appeal could still be submitted past the
28 days, but the the council will increase the fine - unlesss
its one or the other, ie if past appeal will not work and you'll
get increased fine.

The council will be informed of your appeal, and then must
immediately cease any further enforcement action.

I was reading a tips and news post on SkyNews on how to avoid
and appeal tickets, which mentioned a lot of the points from
these forums that I've learnt.
On similar cases with incorrect digits etc, they had suggested
things like dyslexia could be used and they would have to
overturn without any proof. Would the same apply for
ticks/touretttes, ie I have ticks, which could have contributed
to the wrong digit being typed etc)

It will be interesting if the adjudicator finds they did not
address your point about the statutory guidance.

Yep, got a date for adjudication 9th July,.
Hoping that the statuary guidance ground to go in my favour, as
the sky news article also said that BPA (British Parking
Association) say the same that on minor errors the tickets
should be cancelled, although I assume thats more for private
parking.
I just need to decide if I add the bit around my ticks or if
it'll be seen as 'why am I adding it now'

You can't rely on up something like that in the appeal as you've
not given them a chance to consider it but it could add weight
to adjudicator if you highlight the 7-digit code being more
prone to mistakes.
