1st appeal rejection.

Hi
Just had my first appeal rejected by UK PC. Looks like they have sent me a standard rejection letter.
Basically I parked on a free retail type car park. However I parked in a poorly signed 'staff only' part near Nando's and was issued a 'pcn' on the grounds that I did not display a permit. Part of my appeal is based on, as they did not offer me to park then no contract was concluded and therefore this must be civil trespass.


I am looking for some advice before I write my POPLA appeal- can I state that this is a civil trespass, as their rejection letter is heavily worded around breach of contact?
Thanks in advance

  • Just use all the standard POPLA appeal points that can be found from the NEWBIES sticky. If they are claiming breach of contract, then no GPEOL is a sure fire winner. You may also want to add something around "if it's trespass then UKPC cannot make a claim as they are not the landowner."
