I am just letting you know about my dealings with popla, myself and a friend both got a parking charge for the same day and time, we both appealed and my friends appeal was accepted and mine was rejected by popla, just showing the inconsistency of their decisions, popla would not look at my friends appeal when dealing with mine so i am hoping if it gets to court they will look at both appeals and find in unjust to charge one person and not the other.

Hi I recieved a parking 'fine' from the parking eye back in the summer for 'not paying for my parking' although during the 13minutes I spent in the car park I was trying to download the parking app to pay for the parking, which my phone did not want to do so I then gave up and left the car park.
I obviously desputed this, twice, then with POPLA who decided that I was in the wrong and had to pay up, despite the car park not actually having any signs which state the time in which you have to buy a ticket or leave.

So I ended up paying £100 for 13minutes in a car park which I didn't even use, because I thought I had no choice.

I just wondered if anyone knew if there was anyway I can get my money back??
as now I have read the page re. Never paying private parking fines.

Any advise or should I just suck it up and get over it??

IT would be best if you started your own thread, not hijack an article discussion.
