3:IPC will bin your letter

Stop being so negative Freddie, your comments do not help. What the IPC may or may not do is of little consequence. The only way the PPC will get a cent is by taking the matter to court. They have threatened so to do, call their bluff,

The OP needs to be pro-active, start a paper trail, ask questions, get an adjudication, ask more questions. If the OP can show that the IPC/PPC have acted unreasonably, highhandedly, in a threatening or bullying manner, or have misrepresented the position then they have shot themselves in the foot.

Have to agree with TD!

ok , in a real world yes


but lets look at in practice:


you send a letter to the DVLA , they will not investigate , and say we will forward your problem's to BPA or the IPC , the BPA and the IPC clearly state they are a trade body , cannot deal with the general public and cannot intervene between a PPC any yourself.


the IPC , is judge , jury and debt collector , they make money from the PPC and by collecting monies from you , even if you are in the right.


negativity , is due to experience in the real world.


by all means send letters , the DVLA will accept your letter and wrongly pass it on , instead of acting , the IPC will just laugh and ask you for money.

I think you miss the point Freddie. We all know that the various bodies will do jack it's about creating a scenario where court action becomes unreasonable.

For the benefit of casual readers court should always be the last resort. Even when a claim has been issued the court will attempt to divert to an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). The IPC run a recognised ADR for parking. If a motorist makes legitimate attempts to access the ADR and is denied then the parking company is acting unreasonably.

Courts have been known to refer back to the ADR even when motorists have missed all the appeal deadlines. Furthermore if one party acts unreasonable the court can be generous with costs against that party.

What is being suggested is the creation of a paper chain showing the motorist has made every legitimate attempt to access the ADR and thus make the likelihood of court action diminish significantly due to unreasonableness.

I don't think the courts care either.
They operate as a business these days and PPC work is easy money for them and good regular income.

ok , do the paper trail if you think it might get to court , personally I think you might be singled out for "extra" crap , as they may have to fulfil there threats .


The IPC are not fit for purpose , they admit that to there members that they will stop 80% of appeals getting to there tame "adjudicator's" , and simply say "appeal dismissed" , pay up with there debt collectors hat on.


the whole IPC stinks (but we knew that)

Ukcps are fairly litigatious but don't like a fight. They tend to cherry pick easy cases. Anything that can mark you out as being awkward tends to put them off and complaint to anybody and everybody marks you as awkward.

I am shocked at that, recently have helped someone fight these guys and it was much easier than expected, as long as you follow the templates and advice in the newbie sticker.

One letter sent and we had the old 'as a gesture of goodwill...' letter. No POPLA appeal, just a request for the code.
