G24

I received a G24 parking ticket last week and was wondering if I should pay this or ignore it?

    If you'd read the newbies thread you'd know the answer to that but it boils down to:

    More money than sense = Pay

    Otherwise don't pay :)

    You do NEITHER ! Never pay but never ignore.

    Await the Notice to Keeper ( you may already have this as I'm not aware that G24 do windscreen tickets ) and then send the following as your appeal :

    Dear G24,

    This is an appeal against the charge issued to the vehicle with the registration XXXXXX, charge reference XXXX.

    It is the registered keepers assertion that :

    1. The charge is not a genuine pre-estimate of loss.
    2. The signage does not conform to the BPA CoP to which G24 has committed.
    3. G24 has no authority to issue charges over the land in question.

    As such the charge is rejected. You should now either cancel said charge or provide a POPLA code for the registered keeper to appeal to the independent adjudicator.

    Any further correspondence other than confirmation of cancellation or a POPLA code will be considered harassment and could result in legal action being taken against you.

    Yours,

    Print name ( don't sign ).
