    and what will be the outcome if 3500 people complain to Nicola Mullaney , or the CSA ?

    nothing absolutely nothing ...

    I dispute your cynicism PG. Anyone with a passing acquaintance with Governmentspeak will recognise the foreboding contained in the IPSA statement.

    What has the Child Support Agency got to do with it?

    The ISPA are fully aware of the turbulent time ahead. The BPA who just think Wright Hassall are just solicitors are dreaming. Wright Hassall also have turbulent times ahead which will cost them dearly, both financially and their reputation. Most here will say that their reputation has been shot to bits anyway

    Wright Hassall? Right shambles!


    Wright Hassall decisions have started to come in.

    The first problem is that WH appear to have shot the gun - motorists still have one day to add to their appeal evidence. The second problem is that some motorists have not received the initial WH letters, so the decision has come out of the blue. The third problem is that the WH assessor is not named...most likely for reasons which will become obvious. The fourth problem is that the assessment does not take the appeal points into account. The fifth problem is that the judgments are exceedingly short and do not even properly consider the appeal points they do cover. Obviously the BPA have not paid Wright Hqassal enough for them to spend more than 5 minutes writing up their appeal judgment.

    Prankster Note

    The POPLA appeals process is now descending into farce. You get what you pay for, and on the above evidence the BPA have paid for a substandard, incompetent service, which is biased towards the operators and therefore demonstrably unfair.

    ISPA are currently monitoring the appeals process and have appointed two people to check appeals, so if you have any problems either with the procedures or with the quality and competence of the Wright Hassall assessors you should contact ISPA with your complaint.

    The ISPA have appointed two people to check appeals ???

    It's just like children being monitored and confirms that the ISPA do not trust Wright Hassall either ,,,,, who does ?

    It will now depend on the results as to whether the ISPA remain as a credible organisation or fall into the cesspit with the BPA.

    The decision to employ Wright Hassall by the BPA firmly rests on the shoulders of the CEO, one Patrick Troy. As Parking Eye are probably the BPA's biggest customer, it must be queried ... has PE been involved in this farce ?

    As far as Troy is concerned, his decision making must be called to task.
    He should resign his position as it is now untenable.
    At the very least, he should now be monitored.

    Monitored by who ? You seem to be under the misapprehension that the BPA is some form of regulator or public body ? It is a private members club run by its members for its members . The purpose of its existence is to give a pastiche ( albeit very thin ) of control to an uncontrolled "industry".

    Never said that, as an association with a CEO, Troy is responsible for the actions of what you say " a private members club"
    Everybody knows they are not a regulator ?? God forbid if they were

    With respect you did say "At the very least he should now be monitored" - but moving swiftly on...

    To turn one of your oft used phrases back on you "but newbies here might not know that".

    The way the BPA behave coupled with the way the press fawn over them one would be forgiven for thinking that they had some sort of regulatory function.

    Shame really as its difficult to imagine members of the press traipsing all the way to Knutsford for tea in a chipped mug and a bacon butty for a quiet word with the Milky Bar Kid (I know its Knutsford as opposed to Warrington so you do get a serviette with the butty). Nowhere near as genteel as Haywards Heath and a chat with Trouserfire. One would probably enjoy an Earl Grey and prosciutto on wholegrain (crusts off) served on a doily.

    Same old bullsh1t though.

    We forget, at our peril, that both of these organisations have in their gift access to the the golden goose - DVLA data. Heaven forbid it was something important.
    My very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016). :(

    For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com

    Ah, my reference was to the comment "You seem to be under the misapprehension that the BPA is some form of regulator or public body ?"

    Hilarious comments:) Great for newbies to understand the jokers

    Yes, the DVLA DATA ... another disgusting story

    However, we are talking about Wright Hassall and their appointment by the BPA. Whoever would have thought that such a poor decision would then involve the ISPA to oversee this farce.
    As the Prankster says "Wright Hassall? Right shambles!"

    Your comments above completely sums up two organisations that are now defunct

    Is there any actual text for these (I assume) appeal rejection letters?

    It will be interesting to see if WH now want to test their appeals with a nice trip to the courts ? ;)
