Receipt Shows Payment
If you have proof of payment (receipt, app confirmation, bank statement), you cannot be charged for non-payment.
Legal basis
The charge cannot arise when the parking fee was paid. No breach of contract.
How to identify this in your case
Locate parking receipt, app screenshot, or bank statement showing payment at the correct time and location.
Sample appeal wording
I am providing evidence of payment for parking at this location on the date in question. [ATTACH EVIDENCE]. As can be seen, payment was made at [TIME] for parking until [END TIME]. The alleged contravention at [TIME] is incorrect as I had a valid paid session. This PCN has been issued in error and should be cancelled immediately.
Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
