Can you imagine a PPC losing a PoPLA case because of non compliant signage and refunding those penalised their money.

Indeed, and that just shows the hypocrisy of Patrick Trouserfire: he's been banging on for years about having private tickets put on the same statutory basis as council ones but it's clear from the BPA's lamentable failure to enforce its (relatively feeble) Code of Practice he's not interested in the responsibilities and regulations that come with council tickets.

A prime example is the Aldi/Parking Eye car park in Dunstable. PE were found to be wrongly ticketing non-Aldi customers, many (I presume) paid up. Nobody got refunds.
