PLA appeal, if someone could have a look and see if it's OK to send, and any edits I need to make. Thank you in advance.

You need to edit the whole post into your own thread - You clearly agreed not to hijack threads as part of your signup!

I have read through the newbie sticker but I am still not sure how to proceed so I hope it's OK to post a query here..

You clearly agreed to not hijack threads as part of your signup, so you already know posting here is not-on and if you had bothered to actually read the thread, Post Five would have made things absolutely clear.

Firstly I know its stupid but I did not appeal or reply to letters. Everyone in our new block of flats gets a ticket a week! Somone has 20! Most have said PCM are only following up the ones they appealed and not all of them so I stupidly ignored every letter I got!

I now have official (stamped) claim letter and I have already extended by 14 days. I wish I saw this forum sooner! Instead, in my extra 14 days I saw a solicitor who said because I didn't have the original PCNs, he could not do anything but make an offer. I bought the lease, the signage in parking area and the letters and he did not look at any of it!

Background of my case - 4 visitor bays were blocked off for work carried out in a new builds garden. I had my visitor permit on show and parked not in a bay, but somewhere out of the way. I received 5 tickets in total and they are taking me to court for £1,000. Since then, the landowners have increased visitor parking bays by a further 15-20 - they must have realised there was a shortage!

I have to send my defence by this friday and don't even know if I have anything to stand on!

Also not good, my solictor told me to make offer of half so he sent an email on my behalf saying "without accepting liability" we offer you £525. They rejected and said minimum they would accept is £800!

Please help!!!!

you need to start a NEW THREAD Using the red button top left of this forum, copy and paste the above query into it, then you will get bespoke advice in the replies

(whereas you wont get any advice at all when you post in this information only thread)

post #2 of this actual thread deals with court cases, please read it, because you will be directed back to it from your "new thread"

You do! Stop offering money, for the love of God. That was terrible advice, IMHO.

Saeed v Plustrade will be relevant to your defence. Spaces can't be offered on the one hand then taken away on the other, and what you describe with increased visitor bays supports your position. So, get some photos and (once you have this defence in) ask the Managing Agent in writing or by email, why the 4 visitor bays were blocked off and what residents using visitor permits were meant to do at the material time, given the recent significant increase in bays proving that more were necessary, not less.

We know you know why the 4 bays were blocked off, but this is about getting evidence and a paper trail, for Witness Statement stage, later. You need in writing what happened about the 4 missing bays, and when (ask for dates and ask why visitors were denied bays for such a period of weeks).

Read & adapt Johnersh's ''own space'' defence from post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQS thread - top of this forum - and start your own thread, showing us your version based on that one (you can use a lot of it).

Your neighbours need to wake and up and smell the coffee - and mainly KICK OUT THE SCUMBAGS.
