Free Traffic Legal Advice

Thanks Dave

I cannot see how to edit the post. But there must have been multiple cars doing the same over the past few months, because the express set down is a a trap.

Once you are on the road heading towards it you cannot stop, turn around or escape. You are, I suspect they argue, committing to a contract. But it is one that you do not intend to enter into willingly and from which you cannot escape.

I hear you and that was my understanding, but I lost a court case as the RK. I seem to recall the T&Cs stated that the RK was ultimately liable. It was a while ago, though.

We paid to park in the green car park, but Mrs Vizard directed me the wrong turn-off from the roundabout and we headed towards drop-off. Once on that road it was one way, the earlier wider part had a coach on it. So we could not turn round and had to drive past drop off to the exit barrier.

At the barrier there was no response from the help button. We had no means of payment in the car, because we didn't expect to pay for anything until we were in the terminal. I also felt that paying would signal agreement that we were prepared to pay. After five minutes of trying the help button I could see no airport staff to speak to, so I tailgated another car out of the adjacent barrier.

A fine has been issued. I appealed stating the above and received a response completely ignoring what I has said. It said that by entering the drop-off lane we'd accepted the T&Cs and must pay. They also said that the fact I could exit via a barrier means the call button was working on the adjacent exit.... err okay.

I can evidence that we had paid in advance for the green car park. Their CCTV will show that we didn't stop or use the drop-off.

I cannot appeal again, it is POPLA or wait for litigation.

Is POPLA worth a shot? A quick Google suggests they tend to favour the parking companies.

QUESTION: DOES THERE NEED TO BE OBSERVATION TIME?

I still cannot get them to show, but those are the codes.

I am not in a position to re-edit the original photos, but if my reg no and the PCN no are relevant I will do so at a later date. There remain however good reasons why I would particularly prefer not to reveal my reg no. Less so the PCN number.

There are issues with Ringgo, I reported them a week or so ago. Basically I cannot extend sessions without losing the remaining time on the session.

So I wait until expiry now before renewing. But today I had no signal for about ten minutes and by the time I renewed it was +12 minutes and I got a PCN in that time.

Is there any scope for an appeal here?

I also note that there was no observation time, it is 0 minutes, is there meant to be?

What happens to the payment that I subsequently made? I made it in good faith but received no benefit from it.

I've tried to upload the ticket, but I get an error message.

Cheers
