Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Dart charge - paid but incorrect reg entered
« on: June 02, 2026, 01:59:35 pm »
I gave them a call and they let us off - just had to pay the charge for the correct registration. Apparently it happens all the time. I shall be paying any charges in the future but yes maybe we should consider a Dart charge account.

Thanks everyone!

Hello all,
The dart charge was paid but the registration was entered incorrectly. 0 used instead of O

This has happened before - last time I, as registered keeper, called dart charge and the penalties were cancelled. Are they likely to be as happy to help as before as it's a second offence? I should say that I was not the driver on either occasion.It is genuine mistake.

Many thanks

hi, I wrote to them using the template you kindly provided on April 4th. There was no suggestion in the letter I had received from APCOA rejecting my original appeal that I had to appeal to POPLA using a specific form.
So I sent the appeal on April 8th - using snail mail and then received the reply posted above about a week later.

Apologies! Here is the letter I received in response to my appeal



The form is 10 double sided pages.

I have received nothing else from POPLA or APCOA.

Many thanks

Another update!
I appealed to POPLA and received a letter back asking me to use an enclosed appeals form either by post or online. But to reply by April 27th. I decided to appeal online and started this today. I entered the verification code and received a message that the code was no longer valid.
This is odd as I have not exceeded the 28 days from the date of the APCOA rejection letter which was March 31st.
So I guess that now I have to write to POPLA and APCOA with a complaint about the appeals process.
Is there any particular provision of the Parking Code I can use?
Many thanks

Update - I was going to ignore the debt recovery letters as advised. But yesterday I received a letter from APCOA refusing my appeal, giving me a POPLA code for a further appeal and offering me the £60 payment option. Which is odd considering I have now had 2 debt recovery letters.
Should I appeal to POPLA? Or just keep ignoring!

Letter below.

Many thanks for your help.

Hi all,
My appeal was ignored so I didn't get an option to appeal to POPLA.  I have now received a demand for payment from Debt Recovery Plus. Do I ignore these or do I have to reply?

Letter posted below

many thanks

Private parking tickets / APCOA Penalty Notice

Hi all,
I have received, as registered keeper, the Penalty Notice below from Apcoa. I was not the driver at the time.

Can I just appeal on the basis that I was not the driver and I am not therefore liable?

many thanks

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Bus Lane Code 34J - The Broadway Wimbledon LB of Merton
« on: August 29, 2023, 05:37:23 pm »
Hi,
A PCN has been received from Merton for bus lane contravention - The Broadway Wimbledon.
I see that there are a couple of threads regarding this particular bus lane.
The driver approached having passed the station, not from Hartford Road, so did drive past the blue Bus Lane sign but didn't see it or the white line on the road.
The signage on the road is poor but it wasn't dark and it wasn't raining as in the other situations.
I attach the PCN.
In view of the above, is it worth appealing as I would only be appealing on the grounds of the poor signage of the bus lane itself.
TIA
