Scam Parking Text Alert – Please Stay Vigilant

We continue to receive reports of fake text messages claiming to be parking fines issued by Wychavon District Council.

Please note: Wychavon will never send parking fines by text message. All genuine Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) are issued on paper and placed directly on your vehicle. If you receive a message, do not click any links and do not share personal information.

How to check if a parking notice is genuine:

  • Real Wychavon PCNs cost £50 or £70, reduced to £35 or £25 if paid within the discount period.
  • Official PCN numbers always begin with WH or ZW.
  • Private parking companies (e.g., supermarkets, retail parks) may issue their own notices, but they cannot text you, as they do not have access to your phone number.

Need to check with us?
If you’re unsure whether a notice is genuine, you can contact us when our offices reopen:
Telephone: 01386 565009
Opening hours: Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm

Stay safe: please stay alert and share this information with friends, family, and neighbours to help protect others from scams.

Information on parking services, including how to find and pay for parking, apply for resident permits, and access electric vehicle charging is available here. You’ll also find details on parking fines and appeals, as well as public toilets and street cleaning.
