You said mini van, what do you mean? I'd assumed that was like a people carrier, or do you mean one of the small car sized vans?
Even if it's a transit sized van, if you hired it privately, that doesn't make it a commercial vehicle. Not that it matters; they can't charge you anything as there's no loss.
If you felt like causing trouble, you could email them from a different address asking what constitutes a commercial vehicle, as a neighbour mentioned a clause and you occasionally have a work van.
If you can then prove that it's not a commercial vehicle by their own admission, it's another point to add to the PoPLA appeal.0 -
