Stoke-on-Trent parking penalties and how to deal with a PCN

The council's parking payment service asks drivers to select the type of ticket being paid, and the payment form requires the reference number shown at the top or bottom of the penalty notice. A driver disputing a notice must use the council's penalty charge notice process rather than treating a free period as permission to overstay.
