I am not an expert on Private Parking, which I think this may be, since you posted it here.... Pls clarify IS it private parking or Council?
If private then suggest you look at the next thread or here. http://www.logiclaw.co.uk/pages/PJ.html
Private schemes are almost unenforceable, as far as I know, --- as I said - v little, and they rely on bullying and threats to gain the revenue.
Otherwise YOU have a LEARNING CURVE ahead........under the old RTA 1991, a PCN must be served in hand or on the screen.
IF not then you can file a representation - appeal against improper service.
The New Tma came into force a few days ago, and your thread sugegsts this was some time ago...
If this is NOT a private scheme, then go here.

and call TEC the number is there, and ask IF the debt is registered, and WHY did you not get a notice of debt registration and appeal form?
THEN download the form N244, P2 / P3 the same, TEC are helpful. And file an appeal, and the bailiff process should be stopped pending a council decision.
If the council reject your appeal then you can ask for it to come to the local county court. Keep watching the process at TEC, and warn/ write..... the bailiffs to stay away while an appeal is pending, otherwise they break the law.
All that is free.
If it is private, then I am not the expert, suggest you clarify this more, perhaps scan the PCN, and let others here see it.
