I'm getting lots of confused information about how if i my appeal against a ticket for staying 7 minutes over (I'm going to dispute GPEOL) fails I cannot go through POPLA as I have to go through the IAS which always turns appeals down - I can't find any info in the newbies section - help anyone?

basically you are correct, but the NEWBIES section does cover IAS appeals, albeit its either appeal and generally lose the appeal, or ignore
ie:- its not as straightforward as a popla appeal , which is why they have changed over to the IPC and IAS , along with all the other to**ers that cannot win these matters by reasonably fair , independent means
plenty of recent forum thread discussing this topic, IAS appeals etc
IAS appeals are bespoke so you wont find any templates for this, hence why you dont find a great deal, there is nothing to find
they have a pompous , arrogant , dismissive "adjudicator" who expects everybody that appeals to be a trained barrister , if not they lose
the choice as to what you do is yours to make , appeal and probably lose, or ignore completely for 6 years, only dealing with any LBC or any MCOL
that is assuming this is for england and wales of course (not Scotland or N Ireland)0 -

The appeal could be a bit like a POPLA appeal - saying the usual 'charge is not a genuine pre-estimate of loss because it's a free car park and no damages were suffered...etc'. But you would have to attach evidence about everything you say. e.g. if you weren't driving you 'could' win the appeal, by sending a copy of BOTH SIDES of the Notice to Keeper showing that they are only relying on the 'possibility the keeper was the driver' and not the POFA 2012. You would have to spell that out like you are talking to a 10 year old. Then say there can be no keeper liability and you were elsewhere and here's the proof (attach a witness statement signed and dated by someone else and witness statement signed and dated by you as well saying where you were).PRIVATE 'PCN'?

I have done my MET Parking Services appeal and it's been refused and I am in the process of the POPLA appeal. I have read all the stuff and taken on board lots of points (multi-page appeal, base on my previous MET appeal) and I would like to know: Is it a good idea to add this paragraph below. I am writing on behalf of the owner of the vehicle, not the driver, and the driver has not been named. Indeed I have not made it clear that I was not the driver when the charge was issued. Is it a good idea or should I refrain. I am trying to load up the contractual issue which I thought had a lot to go for it.
"I was not the driver and refuse to pay any charge on behalf of the driver.
On the day the MET ticket was issued, I was not driving the car. There is no contract of any kind between me and MET or McDonalds. I refuse to pay the charge.
"
Please comment of you can.
Many thanks,

Not sure why you're posting this on an Excel/IAS thread. Have you got one of your own?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.
