Should I ring back up and insist or just allow the appeal to happen?0

I have to disagree with KIL - IF ( and it's a BIG if ) the PPC has provided any evidence then you should get it. This sounds like the PPC have thrown in the towel and you will get a default decision in your favour."The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis." - Dante Alighieri0

It looks like this will win on default Hardworker1234
The PPC should send an evidence pack (wrong info provided by POPLA).
One case I helped with - the PPC failed to send any evidence in to POPLA not even the parking charge notice - so after about 3 weeks late than their "hearing" date, the news was received that the appeal upheld.
(I felt quite cheated in actual fact as I wanted to hear the assessor's opinion on the appeal raised)
DON'T BOTHER CHASING POPLA FOR THEIR EVIDENCE - NOT WORTH IT WAIT AND SEE. PCN(NW) WONT DARE TAKE THIS ANY FURTHER.0 -
Wait and see - and if for some daft reason you don't win the appeal you can then email a complaint that you never got the evidence. If you are desperate to chase it up don't do it by phone! Email POPLA and say 'where is my evidence pack from PCN(NW); have you received yours?PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Reasons for the Assessor’s Determination
The Operator issued a parking charge notice (‘PCN’) for parking in a disabled
bay without displaying a valid disabled (‘blue’) badge. The Operator submits
that a parking charge is now due in accordance with the clearly advertised
terms of parking which required vehicles parked in disabled bays to display a
valid blue badge. The Operator provided photos of site signage and a copy
of a contract for the enforcement of parking restrictions.
The Appellant disputes that the PCN was properly issued. Amongst other
grounds, it is the Appellant’s case that the Operator does not have the
authority of the landowner to enforce the PCN as alleged.
That the Appellant parked in a marked disabled bay without displaying a
valid blue badge is not disputed. The Appellant submitted that the Operator
had no authority to enforce such a restriction. Upon examination of the
evidence presented by both parties I make the following findings:
1) The terms and conditions signage produced by the Operator required
display of a valid blue badge whilst parking in a disabled bay;
2) The contract between the Operator and the landowner specifies the
conditions / restrictions on parking control or enforcement operations
at the site in question as: “permit holders only during college hours /
vehicles must be in designated spaces at all times”;
3) There is no evidence that the Operator had the authority on behalf of
the landowner to issue a parking charge for failure to display a blue
badge whilst parking in a disabled bay.
I accordingly I find that the PCN was not properly issued.
The appeal is allowed on this ground alone.0 -
Well done! - The Assessor's name would have been nice to know - though probably Hardworker won't be back to tell us that.
So POPLA did receive the paperwork after all - looks like HW didn't get his copy.0 -
