    Search the forum for 'Zenith' and you see your letters and advice everywhere confirming they are junk mail. Zenith being another letter-head of DRP; everyone gets the same letters.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Start your own thread if unsure how to appeal, but first read this information:

    ...that's stored on my favourite links under the words 'posted umpteen times'!

    Yes they are legal, however it doesnt mean u need to pay.

    So do a simple appeal to smart on any basis you like , keep it short and sweet,

    in the mean time read up here https://www.parkingcowboys.co.uk/popla that will show u how to win at the independent appeal service afterwards

  • Hi, can anyone please advise me or update me on the "smart parking" PCN notices at present. Do they now have themselves sorted out legally, or is the advice still to ignore all PCN letters.
    Many thanks.
