What evidence for POFA Compliance

In defence I would…

I received the NTK below. POFA paragraph doesn't seem to be included. Although the date of notice is 5th Aug, I didn't actually receive it until 19th Aug (after 25 days), but I guess it doesn't really matter here. Anyways, for the initial online appeal with Britannia, should I add the POFA non-compliance argument to the…

Ready to Defend! Southgate Park MET McDonalds
Hi. Our MET debacle has now gone on and on since August 2024! I emailed them (on behalf of my wife - who is the registered keeper of the vehicle) to try and get them to see sense.
