LCP Harlesden Plaza Popla Appeal

Coupon-mad

Gobsmackingly awful decision. Obviously ignore this drivel. Of course someone in NI does not pay this!

You could have ignored it all along but we actually thought POPLA would get the appeal points. Worry ye not. Ignore it now.

Is ISPA still around to complain to?

Note a degree in 'Creative Writing'. Maybe should have done the 'Creative Reading and Understanding' Course.

Utterly appalling decision, exposing perfectly the total inexperience and lack of knowledge of the private parking issue, as minimum wagers continue to give ridiculous and totally shallow decisions that expose non-liable motorists to on going hassle and grief, for up to 6 years.

If any harassment case ultimately comes forward as a result of such spurious (and that's a kind descriptor) adjudications, the adjudicators must be charged with providing their reasons for such utter rubbish.

The signage at Harlesden Plaza has been found wanting before, by this service of POPLA and old POPLA, both. Do they have no consistency?

We had a case there just a month or two ago - I think on this forum - where the Assessor decided the case on the signs not being clear, most not mentioning the charge nor telling drivers how the ANPR data would be used. But she thinks they are clear, then...

Thanks I really appreciate your comments, It's clear POPLA has become somewhat corrupted over the last few years based on their recent decisions. I'll keep the thread up to date with any future correspondence and we'll see how this pans out!

As of today I've received the typical "you lost your appeal, pay us or else" template and having done some research on the subject of NI Keeper with England PCN there has been universal agreement that LCP must pursue in N. Irish court (which they won't of course).

The most frustrating part of all is the fact LCP have another unsuccessful appeal to quote in future cases.

The fact that the driver is a resident of Northern Ireland is irrelevant. The 'crime' was committed in England where POFA 2012 applies so the keeper can be held liable even if they live in NI. The PPC will have to chase the keeper for the debt through NI courts of course which is unlikely.
