MET Parking at McDonalds

Big_Ells

Wrote, emailed and tweeted McDonalds, they didn't reply to any, looks like they don't care.
I could just say the driver told the manager they were going to be there longer, but that would be false.

Should I send this now or wait till the day before my case is to be heard? Do I have to send a copy to MET?

The date your case will be 'heard' is an estimate only. If your rebuttal is complete and ready (it looks ok to me) there's no strategic benefit in delaying sending to POPLA. You might miss the estimated date if you leave it too close to the wire.

Let POPLA send to the PPC if they think it necessary.

Ok thanks will send it now

Write some mean stuff on their facebook page, they hate that.

Dragging this up, but I still have not had a decision from POPLA
I got a couple of letters on the 10th October saying due to the PE vs Beavis it had been put on hold and I should hear by the 9th November. Nothing from POPLA or MET since then.

Should I chase POPLA or just let it go? Is there a time limit on decisions? This was all done on the old POPLA system.

Still being 'dealt with' by the BPA. Their plan to engage a new adjudication supplier for the backlog of cases from the previous POPLA organisation has come under severe criticism. A furore blew up a few weeks ago; all has now gone quiet again!

There's no one for you to contact about this, so a question of sitting tight!

Thank you Umkomaas, seems like a right mess!

Have you always been a master of the understatement? :rotfl:

Keep us posted if you get any movement on your case once the bath plug is pulled out.

As well as taking the bath plug out, they’ll also need to put an extra large dose of Mr. Muscle down the plughole to unblock the drain

Big Ells - check out the thread on this Forum called “Free the 4000”.

On 8th December, the BPA wrote to some of the “4,000” – details of their letter are included in Post #51 by salmosalaris.

Before Christmas we wrote to the BPA to advise them that at this stage we were not satisfied with the BPA's proposal to appoint an independent service provider to act as it if were POPLA and which would only partially consider an appellant’s case.

We are still awaiting the BPA’s full response to our letter.

I see from your thread that you have at least one winning POPLA appeal point (i.e. the Operator's non-complaint Notice to Hirer). I recommend that you e-mail the BPA to make it clear that you reasonably require that the whole of your case is properly considered, rather it just being restricted to the point upon which "Old" POPLA (incorrectly) decided to adjourn.
