Motorway service station car park congested, could not leave in time

Fuzzy_2

I am just putting my appeal letter together to Parking Eye; I am unsure at this stage whether to mention the congestion in the car park, or just go with the template on the sticky, and not mention mitigating circumstances.
The reason I hesitate is that the template letter has some inflammatory phrases and I don't know whether that is helpful at this stage; surely a polite letter is more likely to illicit a more favourable response; or am I just being naïve here?

You can leave out the 'rant' element, without detriment to the appeal. You could put in a final paragraph about the congestion, but you need to talk about 'the driver', no 'me, myself or I'.

other avenues of complaint ....

The BBC recently ran two programs on private parking

they often do follow ups so it might be worth a letter/email

Patrick Troy who runs the BPA also asked for emails to improve the BPA so perhaps an email to him might be nice

to let them know your views .........

Even consider the local papers Dail Mail as they may well run a story for you.

The government has just finished a consultation period , so your MP might be interested.
