    When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
    We don't need the following to help you.
    Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

    Well that is the usual standard PCS letter which is not POFA2012 compliant so can only be aimed at a driver. It will be interesting to see how PCS respond to the template appeal - and I suspect you will need to gear up to complain to the BPA about this in the end. Can't see it being a simple matter of getting a POPLA code, even though it should be, so I wouldn't spend time yet on the POPLA appeal drafting.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    - I am not sure what "post a broken link" means but please feel free to let me know if this is not the way to do it.

    Apologies for the jargon - a broken link is the phrase used for exactly what you did for the photobucket info - to get round the problem that Newbies can't post the full (unbroken) link yet

    Not surprised to receive today letter from DR+ dated 7th April demanding charge of £150 while nothing received from Parking Collections Service regarding my appeal to their NtK sent 12th March - cert. of posting held.
    I will send to DR+ the dispute/cease and desist letter referring them back to PCS with no further contact with me. (BTW the DR+ letter refers to the creditor as "ANPR Parking Services").
    I will also send letter to PCS referring to my appeal dated 11th March to their NtK (enclosing a copy) and demand a POPLA code or cancellation of invoice. Should I also send anything to ANPR Parking Services? - no address on NtK!!
    I did not email the original appeal to PCS - would it be any good emailing them, as well as posting, the letter demanding POPLA code and copy of appeal?
    Emails to BPA and DVLA in due course.
    I hope I am doing what is required, but anything else I need to do please advise. Many thanks for all the excellent help/advice on this forum.

    you restate the dispute and appeal with anpr as they were the ones issuing the original charge , not PCS , and not DR+ either

    the others are debt collection or back office services acting on behalf of anpr

    a cease and desist letter to both collection services

    complaints with copies of correspondence etc to bpa and dvla

    I think a complaint email to the BPA should be the priority.
