CPM ticket for "Not Displaying a Valid Permit" - NEW?

Dee140157

The forum has 100% success rate with forum assisted POPLA appeals.
I love the fact that the parking notice is immediately above the clamping notice. You do know clamping is illegal for private parking companies do t you. That picture is priceless and should win at POPLA alone with nothing else! (But don't try that)

Yes wait for NTK and use appeal in newbie thread. If it gets rejected the come back for POPLA appeal help. You have a gold dust of a picture there with the daft conditions and the clamping sign together!

It would be even better if you get some way of showing how high it is too! The back of a non related person stood next to it would give an idea.

Once I receive the letter from the private parking company and appeal against it. How will I know if my appeal has been won or not? If it gets rejected will I have to pay the fine?

Do I file the appeal now or wait for the letter to come and THEN appeal?

This is of course NOT a fine, and no you won't have to pay. The answer, again is:

The Newbies thread tells you. Please read it - I wrote it to answer such questions as we can't possibly answer every single person individually just shouting 'heeeeeelp' when the answer is the same for all. I even wrote a template for newbies like you to use, suits EVERY case, but you won't be appealing yet will you? Please, read the Newbies thread, learn what to do and calm down while you await the first letter.

Should not that sign mention v.a.t.?

Hi guys I have received a letter now entitled "formal demand" from UK Car Park Management (CPM) asking me to pay the now £100.00 charge.

I have read the newbie sticky and from what I understand, I am now supposed to copy and paste the template appeal onto word, print it off and post it to the appeals address given at the back of the letter? Is this correct and if so, can I expect them to reply back saying the charge is cancelled? I also wanted to know what I should do with those photographs I have taken and if they can help me at all.

thank you,
I'm actually really stressed about this, more so than I thought I was.

So you have now received the NTK.

now is the time to send off the appeal as per post 1 of newbie thread.
At this stage you don't need to do anything else.

Within 5 weeks you should hear back with either a cancellation of PCN, or more likely a rejection of appeal.

At that point you will put together your POPLA appeal, which will include the photos you have as evidence. You will need to look at examples from post 3 of the newbie thread . Do this whole you are awaiting the probable rejection as this gives you time to get your head around what is said next.

The forum has a virtual 100% success rate with POPLA appeals, so you will not have to pay a penny.

Can you show us the letter please? What differences or omissions have you found when comparing it to paragraph 8 of the POFA (don't panic it's EASY to read, in bullet points and the Act is linked in the Newbies thread). Please take time to compare the letter as you will feel more empowered, I suspect, if you aren't having to be spoon-fed what's wrong with it. Simply a game of 'spot the difference' needed. You will also understand your POPLA appeal much better at the second stage if you have spotted for yourself why that letter might not establish 'keeper liability'.

Just to add we've looked at this 'formal demand' letter on another thread, and it's not compliant:

So have you sent your POPLA appeal yet? Hope you haven't decided to ignore or pay the silly thing! You are about to win at POPLA if you send an appeal based on our examples (in the Newbies thread 'How to win at POPLA' in post #3 of that sticky) and include the fact the NTK isn't compliant with Schedule 4 so there's no keeper liability (that part of your appeal must show the omissions which is easy as I've shown them in the link!).

Hello,

I've just received a letter from CPM saying they've rejected my appeal. It's been such a long time since this situation occured I'm honestly lost as to what to do right now. I was really reassured reading your posts on this thread but I am honestly quite nervous and upset again. am I right in thinking I can appeal to popla and everything will be fine? Even so, I don't have a clue what and how to do it. Any help would be truly appreciated. Thank you!

anyone? please?
