The Deep - Quite frankly, your post is irritating at best. If you can delete it that'd be great.
What do you find irritating about TD's advice in trying to help you?Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Apart from the fact it's copied and pasted into pretty much every thread I've read so far? It might not be so irritating if the post was worded in a way that bore any relevance to my specific questions...0

I have to say that its not the best way to get informed advice from a forum by criticising one of the forum regulars and asking him to delete posts ....
I hope you are aware that the forum regulars are all volunteers who devote their time for free.........
Have a quick look to see how many posts per day come in .......
if all the members had to spend time answering to the letter every single post put up , then little would get done . Most regulars will have sets of saved text that they will rely on to save time ... I certainly do .
Please remember how easy it is to take or give offense when using such internet mediums.
Good luck and a merry xmas

As a forum regular I do get concerned over such comments which can make me think I might need to tread carefully with this poster! So what do I do? Move on and help someone else. There are already too many needing help; and I already spend too much of my free time dealing with the problems of others. I don't need any extra sh1te.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum.

I think TD is one of those 'bots' that generates random phrases which are supposed to help an OP but somehow miss the mark.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
So yeah...cocked up!
I thought you had to wait until you received the letter and then appeal. Letter was written ready to send for the appeal, but now presume the letter can't be sent it as the appeal time (21 days) has passed?
That's right. I like salmosalaris' latest suggestion here for IPC firms:

But do not then bother with IAS. JUST first appeal, just to make the points shown.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

I had a letter with the AOS code of practice points listed in it. It's vey similar to the one salmosalaris has posted in the other thread.
As I understand it now UKCPS LTD are not registered with the BPA (I have just checked the BPA website).
If I send the original letter (template from parking cowboys) would it just be ignored - knowing now that they are not registered with the BPA?
A copy of this is below...Withoutprejudice, except as to costsParking Charge Notice - Notice to Keeper *******
This letter is a formalchallenge to the issue of your Parking Charge Notice - Notice to Keeperas set out in thecurrentBPA Ltd AOS Code of Practice B.22

I should be grateful for specific answers to all questions raised. Inthis respect I remind you of the obligations set out in the current PracticeDirection on Pre-Action Conduct.
I dispute your claim for the reasons set outbelow. Please note that although I dispute the whole basis of the parkingcharge, my main concern is its disproportionate and punitive level.

(i) Damages for trespass

(iii) A contractual sum
2. Your loss.

Your Parking Charge Notice - Notice to Keeper simply mentions UKCPS Ltd.Please tell me who is the actual creditor making this £100 parking chargedemand. I need to know exactly who is making the claim and in what capacity.
4. Ownership of premises.
Please tell me who owns the car park as I wish to send them a copy of this letter.

Please ensure that the photographsshow the terms and conditions in a clear and legible manner. Please provide mewith a diagram showing the locations and layout of those signs at the car park.Alsoprovide evidence that the wording is in plain and intelligible language and insufficiently large print as to be legible to a driver at the car park’s entrypoint.
7.Summary
I look forward to receiving your acknowledgement within 14days and as there are no ‘exceptionalcircumstances’ your comprehensive reply within 35 days (in accordance withthe BPA AOS Code of Practice B.22.8). I will then beable to make an informed decision as to how I deal with your Parking ChargeNotice – Notice to Keeper.

He told you where he got it from.
It's the cowboys who put all that in their suggested appeal, not the poor OP looking for help!0 -
ok I with rephrase the comment.
OP please do more research OR read the comments on this thread , this company is a member of the IPC , so any reference to the BPA or POPLa is a waste of time .
you will want the ability to refer back thru your paper trail if this ends up in the small claims court , so be careful what you write and make sure you have the legal means to produce those document's in front of a judgeSave a Rachael
