parking eye Newport Pagnell

Mojoworking

Hi all. I've read the sticky. I'm sorry to ask but is it really just using the template you have done or does it need to be personalised? I don't understand and feel really stupid and if I had the money would just pay to make it all go away. Also reading this and knowing it will go to popla is a worry. We had broke down and I just didn't think about parking. Any advice gratefully received. Sorry for being a nuisance.

You use the template exactly as is, and send it off through the post from the post office with a free proof of postage, and electronically as well. All you do is add name, address, date and ticket number, and that is it.

ideally do it yourself

if not , use parkingticketappeals to do it for you (google it) for a small charge

hoohoo

If you broke down, let parkingeye know in the appeal. They are usually quite reasonable about things like this

Thank you everyone so much for replying. I will keep you informed.

Should I add a sentence "the trailer that was being towed by the car when it entered the services was deemed unroadworthy by the AA and was put on a box trailer to be transported."

Or just leave it.

We had been planning to go camping.

Thank you again.

put whatever you feel is mitigating circumstances but as the third party (so using words like you used and not implying who was driving)

BUT

make sure you add it as an extra point below the ones in the template , making use the ones in the template are in there and above it

so as point 4) or 5) if you have another point 4)

4) the car broke down and ...........

5) the trailer that was being towed by the car when it entered the services was deemed unroadworthy by the AA and was put on a box trailer to be transported

Hi all. So 2 letters arrived today.one getting on for four sides and quoting HHJ Maloney QC and how he ruled in favour of parking eye. The rest stating that my questions were of a generic nature - surely not! And to pay up.

The 2nd letter said if you had vehicle difficulties then give evidence. I can I've got the paperwork from the breakdown company but they then indicate the driver. Do I photocopy and tippex out names or leave it in. Thanks for your time and help all it os really appreciated x

Your best bet is to go straight to post 3 of the Newbie thread and click on the blue words How to win at POPLA. Find the most relevant template and use it to form your appeal. You do not need to send further evidence to the PPC.

If they have not issued you with a POPLA code, then email them to say that you have told them all you wish to in your appeal and that they should either accept it and cancel charge or reject and issue POPLA code.

They know they are breaking the BPA code off practice with a delaying tactic such as this.

Also complain to BPA, details in post 6 of newbie thread that they have failed to respond to your appeal with either a cancelation or a POPLA code.

Do they though? I could be barking up the wrong tree but don't the AA just say 'customer name' which would merely put that person as an occupant of the car who phoned up for their breakdown service? An AA member can get help in any car they are a passenger in of course, not just when driving.

I would just try emailing PE a copy with the name covered with a little piece of paper when you take a picture of it on your phone. That could be sent tomorrow and then if you wait a week (NO MORE) you'd know whether the case is cancelled or not without needing POPLA.

Send the email to:

[EMAIL="enforcement@parkingeye.co.uk"]enforcement@parkingeye.co.uk[/EMAIL]

State which PCN and car reg it refers to and the date of the letter you are replying to of course. And just say:


Further to your letter, here is my evidence that the car was indeed broken down. As I already told you, the trailer that was being towed when the car entered the services was deemed unroadworthy by the AA. If I do not hear from you within one week - by Friday 4th July at the latest - that the PCN has been cancelled after all, I intend to take the matter straight to POPLA. The appeal will be made on the basis that your charge is not a genuine pre-estimate of loss nor 'commercially justified' and that you do not own the Services and that your signage fails to meet the requirements under the TRSGD2002 for Motorway Service Area traffic signs. I am sure you will decide to cancel the unjustified 'charge' but you have a week to confirm and to save yourselves another POPLA fee.

Thanks for getting back to me. My techy skills aren't the best so I've photocopied and am posting tomorrow as I need to get my proof of posting. Thank you again x

OK but only get a free 'certificate of posting' slip from the PO. NOT Recorded Delivery, not signed-for to a PPC, they won't sign...
