    NO, of course you give your name and address!

    you give them your name , address VRM etc , as KEEPER

    the point is you dont admit to who was driving , yoiu dont tick any boxes saying who the driver was , you do this around day 18 , if sending by post get a free cert of posting at the PO COUNTER , if online select KEEPER

    Thanks very much for the advice. I will contact them tomorrow first thing using the methods on the back of the PCN following the advise given. I will keep everyone posted about what happens

    No, not tomorrow. Around day 18 for IPC companies as explained in the NEWBIE thread. You are playing a long legal game and you need to tip the scales in your favour, well tip them a bit anyway.

    Not too soon, not too late, and never reveal the driver's details. Don't be surprised or worried if/when it is rejected. It's part of "the game."

    Just a sec.

    The parking event was today - so a windscreen ticket, yes?

    I assume the Motability vehicle is registered to someone's home address rather than the organisation supplying the vehicle?

    Please resist any temptation to phone them under any circumstances!!! Everything in writing or email.

    Yes, hence the advice to wait before appealing.

    The OP should also be complaining to the retailer about a breach of the Equality Act (assuming the MiL was with them at the time.)

    Good, and do not appeal too early or it suggests the appellant might be the driver if they fire off the appeal too fast.

    Day 17 or 18 is fine, about right.
