Just had an appeal held up against KPS for a parking ticket in Mousehole.

I had bought a ticket and placed it on my dashboard but it had blown off in between placing it there and closing the door.

My grounds for appeal were simple;

- I had bought a ticket so KPS had not lost any revenue;
- The car park is on the see front, so its forseeable that there is going to be windy;
- KPS do not provide sticky labels to the tickets so I can fulfill my part of the contract of "displaying" the ticket
- The car park is not lit at night - so I was unable to see whether it was there or not.


POPLA held up the appeal on the first point - the burden off proof is on the operator to determine what losses they had incurred... as they hadnt lost anything the case was held up in my favour )


POPLA does work.... it took a few months but the site was easy to use and process v straightforward.

I have just been ticketed for the exact same reason, the ticket I purchased must have flipped over when I closed the door (is really windy in Mousehold today) and I didn't realise - but £100 fine.. for that??? Having read your post I am going to appeal. Any pointers?

yes

1) start your own thread instead of hijacking old ones , thanks

2) read the sticky thread for NEWBIES at the top of this forum

3) its not a fine , its a parking charge notice invoice (an invoice for a pcn)

cheers
