Excel

I have just received a Notice to Owner from Excel for being parked longer than the maximum period in a retail park with the outstanding amount shown as £100. They say a PCN was issued but there was not one on my car and I have not received one through the post.
They also claim photographic evidence although this has not been sent.
Do I appeal or just ignore this notice?

    I don't know that you'd experience 'peril', but yes don't appeal.

    If you feel you really must respond (as I did to Parking Eye; I really felt that they needed to have their own a**e handed to them), state 'THIS IS NOT AN APPEAL' in your correspondence and address is to general enquiries/information rather than appeals.

    General advice is don't bother contacting though. I had the amusement of two really badly construed personal replies, but the rest have just been generic templates.

    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.
  • Thanks for the advice. I will stick it out.
