Met parking ticket

Whoa!!!! What a welcome to the MSE forum. "Troll", "scum", what nice people you are, and just because my post didn't agree 100% with your previous advice.
For the record, I am not an employee of a PPC, and never have been, but please don't get distracted by that.
The issue here is pbc has no grounds for an appeal or if he/she does, this hasn't been included in the post. They admit to overstaying the maximum time. So, come on experts, in this case what should the appeal be based on? This website talks about unfair parking tickets, why do you think this one is unfair?
There are countless grounds for appeal. If you are not a PPC troll, then you obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Please read the POFA 2012 regulations. There are over 100 different paragraphs, all of which have to be complied with. Please read the BPA CoP. Another 100 or more. Please read the laws on contract, and previous court decisions. Finally, please read up on previous POPLA decisions. Don't offer advice until you have some idea of the complexity of the issues involved. You can however offer money. If you are prepared to cough up the parking charge on behalf of the OP because you think the charge reasonable I'm sure we would all find that acceptable.Dedicated to driving up standards in parking0 -
pbc states "We stayed over our allotted time". No mention of anything else, just an admission of guilt. If there are further details perhaps these could be posted (so long as they wouldn't prejudice the case). We could all then work on better information.
In their absence, I repeat my 2 questions, what basis should the appeal be made on? and why do you think the ticket is unfair?
I think a lot of motorists who have been caught out in similar ways would be interested to here the answers.
Perhaps you should read a few of the thousands of threads about PPC scams and do a bit of your own research instead of high jacking this thread where a legitimate poster is asking for help!0 -
So AndyWest just pops up out of nowhere and starts spouting rubbish. Of course he's a PPC troll. Why would he sign on here otherwise?
I like this bit from him:- "just an admission of guilt.". So tell us troll, what law has the OP broken to be deemed "guilty".What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0 -

Can you not read or something or was your vision blurred when I called PPCs scum? Not an employee - but proud arrogant owner of a protection racketeer PPC firm maybe?
''Hmmmm how come there have been MET cases won at POPLA then? We have one such example on the POPLA decisions thread; read it and you may learn something.''
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
