PCN code 71: parked in an electric vehicles' charging place during restricted hours without charging
What this contravention code means, and how to appeal it · Off-Street
Code 71 means the council or TfL recorded your vehicle as parked in an electric vehicles' charging place during restricted hours without charging. If you paid but it wasn't recorded, or the car park's signage didn't make the terms clear, that's worth challenging.
Full description on the ticket: “Parked in an electric vehicles' charging place during restricted hours without charging.”
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.
