Is it worth me appealing to POPLA?

Long time no reply, but just wanted everyone in this forum to know I successfully appealed and POPLA cancelled the ticket. Thanks everyone for your advice and help.0

On what basis did they cancel, GPEOL or no contract. You should now post details on all the notice boards, and raise the matter at the AGM if you are a leaseholder. If you are renting, let your landlord know.
FWIIW, if you had parked in one of my spaces I would have let your tyre down.You never know how far you can go until you go too far.0 -
Hi Could anyone help?
I've had 2 tickets this summer from PCN company from a private parking company Totalling £200
I paid for parking every day I was on holiday andsomehow kept my tickets
Ticket Fine 1. shows I underpaid by 20p i I paid £3 rather than £3.20
Ticket Fine 2. shows I paid in full and then some but I typed my registration in wrong 1 digit was incorrect.
I appealed to the Company, with photocopies
Ticket Fine 1. this was rejected by the Private company
Ticket Fine 2. They said they'd discount the fine to £20 but feel in principle this just isn't right
My question really is it worth going through the POPLA website. if so could anyone give me some advice
Much appreciated if you can
Many Thanks0 -
You need to start a new thread of your own please. One case only per thread.
Put the full name of the parking company in your new thread, then advice will come through. You're a bit vague at the moment on who issued the ticket.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

I'm so distraught, I wasn't well and parked in the range disabled bay, needed the loo as I have medical problems, I am diabetic and have fibromyalgia both make you forgetful, I'm nearly 62, memory problems, I forgot to put my blue badge up, I wasn't even aware I was in a parking site you have to pay in, anyway that day I wasn't well came from an appoint that was stressful at my clinic, I even forget my shopping at the range and had to go back in to get it, I left it on the tills, when I got home I noticed a parking charge stuck on my windscreen, 11.00. - 1105. The loos are way up the lift and at back of store, I could never have got there and back and shopped within 5 mins of receiving this charge. £100. Oh my where do I find that sort of money, I suffer with mental health problems and this is tipping me over the edge, I have written to the range they say this is to stop unauthorised use of their car parks (but I was a customer that day), I have written explaining to ukcps that I don't have to give the name of the driver but explained what happened. No reply. What can I do please help? Should I borrow £100 I'm devastated, my memory is awful I was being tested for dementia at one point but I'm ok, just all my meds making me confused and my illnesses making me forget things.0
