Parking Charge Notices

The whys and the whens (and how to get them paid)

Take a breather, there's no rush to pay for parking before you board your train! Our ANPR car parks are pay on exit, so you can forget about flustered beginnings to your trips an pay when you return.

Unfortunately, if you do not pay, we have to issue Parking Charge Notices. We don’t like doing it, but it’s the only way to keep things fair. So here’s a bit more information about the policy, to help ensure you don’t get one. And if you have received one, then it should help explain why.

Why are Parking Charge Notices issued?

A Parking Charge Notice (PCN) means any document which issued to the motorist by private parking companies for parking violations on private land.

Parking Charge Notices are typically issued for various infractions such as:

  1. Overstaying the allowed parking time.
  2. Parking without a valid permit or ticket.
  3. Parking in designated areas like disabled bays without authorization.
  4. Failure to adhere to parking regulations displayed on signs within the parking area.

If you receive a PCN please bear in mind that the reduced amount of £60 is valid for 14 days as stated on your initial Parking Charge Notice. After this time, the Parking Charge will increase to £100.

You will not get points on your driving licence, however if the PCN is not paid the case will be passed to debt collection agency to peruse the payment and it will lead to additional charges.

All of the information that you will needs for your PCN will be on the letter you receive, and on FAAC Mobility Services website here.
