    Hi all,

    Is this a bit long winded? I adapted one from the suggested template on here and a few bits from other websites too?

    Thanks :)

    Nothing new. Their "evidence" is full of holes. There are several threads containing rebuttals to PPC evidence; search for rebuttal and you'll find something you can use to send to POPLA to kill off their nonsense.

    Hi @bod1467, thanks I will have a search. I had sent an appeal to Popla, so this is there counter argument.

    They have submitted costs and arguments to my points, so will have a look to see what I can now respond with (presuming my response will be looked at?)

    Their response to my appeal was 5 pages! I am a little jittery now that they are going to win

    Thanks :)

    They're not going to win.

    Post up the list of 'losses' that go to make up their £100 odd charge, and we'll tear it to shreds for you.

    UKPC win? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

    Their GPEoL calculation will mostly consist of staff costs that are normal business costs. Any costs relating to POPLA appeals cannot ever be a genuine PRE-estimate of loss ... they can never assume that 100% of people who receive tickets will appeal to POPLA. (The reality is at most 2%).
