ParkingEye pretends not receiving my challenge letter

I would attach them. PE won't want to show the discrepancy!

Good appeal but change the following:



It has also been widely reported that some parking companies have provided “witness statements” instead of the relevant contract. There is no proof whatsoever that the alleged signatory on behalf of the landowner has ever seen the relevant contract, or, indeed is even an employee of the landowner. [STRIKE]I require, if such a witness statement is submitted, that it is accompanied by a letter, on landowner’s headed notepaper, and signed by a director or equivalent of the landowner, confirming that the signatory is, indeed, authorised to act on behalf of the landowner, has read the relevant terms of the contract and is qualified to attest to the full limit of authority of the parking company[/STRIKE]Therefore a signed witness statement is unacceptable.

You've contradicted the first two paragraphs -firstly wanting the actual contract and then saying signed witness statement will suffice - giving Parking Eye the opportunity just to provide the witness statement.

And alter this bit:


The £100 charge asked for far exceeds the cost to the landowner, as the car park is free in the first 15 minutes for motorists to drop off/pick up hotel customers, afterwards it is £1/per hour. [STRIKE]The car park had ample remaining capacity and no physical damage to the landowner was caused by this incident.[/STRIKE] The car park had ample remaining capacity and thus no financial loss or damage was sustained by the landowner by any alleged breach.

Thanks everyone. POPLA has allowed my appeal.


ParkingEye did not even bother to send them any evidence this time.


Strange? Or they are clever now to save them some paper and postage?


Cheers!:beer:


Below the message from POPLA:


"It is the Appeallant's case that the parking charge notice was issued incorrectly.


The operator has not produced a copy of the parking charge notice, nor any evidence to show a breach of the conditions of parking occurred, not any evidence that shows what the conditions of parking , in fact, were.


Accordingly I have no option but to allow the appeal.
