Rejection letter late, so no POPLA

laertes

Hi All

I appealed a Private Parking Charge Notice by email earlier this year. I got the automated response.
The next communication was over two months later and it informed me that as my appeal had been rejected and I had refused to pay and had decided not to go to POPLA ( Parking On Private Land Appeals ), then court proceedings etc would follow.
I wrote to the issuer asking where the rejection letter was as I had received nothing since my initial appeal.
They then sent a copy of the rejection letter and a POPLA code.
I appealed to POPLA. POPLA rejected my appeal as it was over 28 days after the rejection even though I explained the late arrival of the rejection letter.

I had thought my initial appeal had been successful as I had heard nothing for so long.

Any pointers / opinions / similar experiences?
