Ok, I will certainly give it a go then, thank you.Can I check - does receiving debt collector letters affect your credit score or anything similar? I am up for a re-mortgage in about 18 months and obviously don't want anything like this to impact that.

Not offended! Completely understand and agree.POPLA appeal has not yet been submitted as I thought I'd come here first this time rather than acting out of haste.Any tips on how to best appeal to them?Thank you.

1. Wording wasn't saved unfortunately, but essentially it was explained that a ticket was purchased and there was an accidental overstay of 20/25 mins. Explained the situation as to why, i.e. organising wake, provided evidence to confirm the same and also provided evidence of all other parking tickets usually purchased via app (I know they don't take in to consideration, but I was acting in emotion, not rationality).2. Yes.3. No. It was complete user error. Explained mental health has been severely impacted by loss of loved one.I'm aware there's probably not much that can be done in this instance given how the initial appeal was raised, unfortunately I was not aware of this very helpful forum. My biggest issue in honesty is the fact they're demanding £100 as the first letter(s) were ignored, when they were in fact never received.

Hi,ECP PCN dated 13/09/25 in Newbury town centre. Final notice letter received a few weeks ago advising as the first letter(s) hadn't been responded to, the discounted price was no longer available and £100 was payable.A ticket was purchased and went over by circa 20/25 minutes, as was in the process of organising a wake for someone very close, so the time wasn't been kept an eye on as diligently as usual.PCN was appealed on 28/10/25 - evidence of organising the wake were sent across, along with explaining no initial letters were ever received.Understandably they aren't interested in the personal reasons as to why the ticket went over, but in response to the appeal, no acknowledgement was given to the fact that the initial letter(s) weren't received.Uploaded response letter and picture of parking sign. Any advice much appreciated.
