Parking Charge from MET

Hi all,

Wonder if someone could help me out with this...

I received a PCN from MET through the post back in April. I sent an appeal to them which got rejected. Since then however I've ignored all their letters and threats - as per the old advice on this site.

After receiving a new letter the other day though from Zenith Collections who are offering me a "reduced settlement" of £79.99 (down from £150) I checked MSE again and have seen all the new advice saying to appeal. I've obviously left it more than 28 days since appealing to MET so I presume I can't appeal through POPLA now?

I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on what i should do now?

Thanks

    Have a read through that first. If there are any questions afterwards, come back.

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
