PCN code 22: re-parked in the same parking place
What this contravention code means, and how to appeal it · On-Street
Code 22 means the council or TfL recorded your vehicle as re-parked in the same parking place or zone within one hour after leaving. A valid permit or payment that simply didn't show, or signage that wasn't clear at the time, is a real basis to challenge this rather than pay it.

Letter after the code, like 22c?
A letter after the number narrows down the exact circumstances: c means buses only, f means free parking bay, g means motorcycle bay, l means loading place, m means parking meter, n means red route, o means blue Badge holder, p means pay & display, s means shared use bay, v means voucher, 1 means electric vehicles bay, 2 means goods vehicle loading bay, 8 means zero emission capable taxis only, 9 means electric vehicle car club bay. We factor the exact suffix into your letter automatically.
Can I appeal this?
Yes. This is a statutory Penalty Charge Notice from a council or TfL, not a private charge, so you have a formal right to challenge it before it escalates into a Charge Certificate.
