If they do that will be ace, cos then I will just remove my permit permanently and quote the same stuff time after time in my appeals to them.............0 -
Eventually it would be worth their while (they think) to take it all the way. No-one has yet tried the crap shoot that a county court may yet be.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

Isn't it a shame no provisions have been made for costs? This means a justifiable grievance cannot be pursued and the company made to pay or their incompetence.
I got £100 from Glasgow City Council for not cancelling their ticket on a initial appeal, waiting until the Parking Adjudicator got involved. True, this wasn't private parking - but if it is good enough for one, it's good enough for the other.0 -
I think IF the victim appeals to the PPC on one appeal point and to POPLA on another it would be difficult for POPLA to side with the victim as the appeals differ surely? I think you will need to appeal to the PPC on all aspects and then send POPLA the whole appeal you sent to the PPC with a covering letter stating the chain of events. :idea:
Who knows for sure - the website does not mention it so I would say they would not expect anyone to appeal on different grounds to them as apposed the PPC.....0 -
Why ? if you make a defence on a small claim you are not just restricted to that one thing. If you make an appeal to patas you can add further details from the council appeal you make. Plus other things may change from what you said to the parking company to a popla appeal.Excel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?0 -

But that's exactly what happens all the time with real PATAS and other local adjudication appeals in the real world with Council tickets.
Understandably, people fire off a naive, desperate knee-jerk first appeal and then when rejected by a Council, they do some internet digging and maybe take advice from a forum like pepipoo if they are smart. Then in the end the final PATAS appeal bears no relation to the original one whatsoever.
And PATAS do not have a problem with that so why should POPLA? It's human nature.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Also, POPLA should simply be judging your case on its own merits, not concerning itself with what you did or didn't tell the PPC.Je Suis Cecil.0

100% agree that is what happens and my concern is POPLA may not take this into account - IF they have BPA members adjudicating appeals. Only time will tell I suppose....0 -
They are supposed to be independent by the way, there is no chance that they will have bpa members having input, I mean that would be silly, it would be like the bpa owning popla - oops
