Car parking before 5pm - appeal
« Reply #15 on: »
Following on from my first post, I have appealed the 2nd and 3rd notices and awaiting a response.

How should I go about the first notice which has had an appeal already rejected? The letters make it seem I can appeal as normal again rather than going through popla? TIA

What was your appeal for the charge for 3/5? And did you identify yourself as driver to who I assume would be the warden?

I hadn't come here for advice so my appeal was not the best and yes I'd identified myself as the driver. I said that as the charges are 5pm to 8am I didn't have to pay basically.

I have received these 2 now. Hoping for a third. Does this mean someone is likely looking at the sign and then actioning further?

It's just their standard boilerplate to acknowledge receipt of your appeals and to make clear they'll respond.

Although somewhat Venal, PE are probably the most professional of the PPCs, however they do reject practically every appeal and force you to POPLA, that's a rare **** up on signage by them as the signage absolutely only requires those visiting to register and there are no restrictions on non visitors pre 5pm from it's strict wording.  A cancelation by PE is an outside chance, but at POPLA should be easier.

The first ticket where I outed myself as the driver has been rejected. Should I submit the above better written appeal which I used on my 2nd and 3rd ticket on my popla appeal? And should I just follow the process on the back of the notice for the popla appeal?

Use the POPLA appeal for all of them, add this to the other two as well as any POFA items.

Spend the time to spell out why your parking wasn't in breach and include the sign in the appeal.  Some POPLA assessors aren't too bright so you need to spoon feed them.

Dear Sirs,

I am appealing this parking charge notice. I am appealing on the grounds that the driver did not breach any of the terms of parking as advertised by the signage on the site.

Your parking charge notice alleges that the driver incurred a charge by "either not purchasing the appropriate parking time or by remaining at the car park longer than permitted". The signage at the site (a copy of which is attached) states that tariffs only apply between 5pm-8am Monday-Friday, and all day Saturday and Sunday. As the car was not parked during these times, no tariff was due. Additionally, the signage does not specify a maximum stay outside of the periods when parking tariffs apply.

Accordingly, the alleged breach did not occur, and the parking charge is not due. You should therefore kindly cancel this charge.

Sent this for the 2nd and 3rd notices. The 2nd notice has been cancelled. Planning in sending this to popla. Is it worth mentioning they've find me 3 times under similar circumstances?

What's a pofa item?

Look up other POPLA appeals and start again!

That's about 1/5 the size it should be.
