    We hope they won't send one - you are waiting for something that may never come - that's the point of appealing around day 25, to make them forget to move on to any NTK.

    Then they have to reply to your appeal by November sometime, ages yet. Just make sure you appeal as explained in the NEWBIES thread at the right time.

    You don't want the NTK to ever arrive so that you get a winning appeal point at PoPLA.

    The NEWBIES thread tells you to appeal, how to appeal (the appeal is actually written for you) and when to appeal.
    It also tells you why to appeal around week three. The nearer to day 28 the better, but do not miss the appeal deadline. Day 26 online is ideal. If online option is not offered, then day 22 by post from a Post Office, first class and get a free proof of posting.

    You must be very close to the date you should be appealing. Don't miss the opportunity.
    This information really is given in the NEWBIES thread. Please take the time to read it, re-read it, digest it, and follow the tried and tested process.

    The advice to ignore has not been given on this site since the law changed in 2012.

    Hi all. Just received my reply from Parkwatch. Unfortunately its a Refusal of appeal however they are saying they will persue the registered keeper. What can i do now.


    Parking Charge Notice: Ref 0000XXX
    VRM: NX09XXX
    Issue Reason: Parking on cross hatching
    Location: Arena Shopping Park, Coventry, CV6 6AS
    Dear Mr Shah,
    After reviewing the information provided within your appeal letter and the photographic evidence that was
    taken in support of the issued PCN, and although we have taken into consideration the mitigation that you
    have provided we have decided that the parking charge was correctly issued for failing to comply with the
    parking conditions at the Arena Shopping Park, Coventry, CV6 6AS that are clearly displayed throughout this
    location. The area in which you parked your vehicle is not a designated parking bay.
    Please note, if the driver is not identified by the registered keeper within 28 days of their reminder notice, the
    registered keeper will be pursed for the parking charge notice.
    You now have a number of options;
    1. Pay the Parking Charge Notice at the prevailing price of £60.00 within 14 days. Please note that after
    this time the Parking Charge Notice will rise to £100.00
    2. You have now reached the end of our internal appeals procedure; however, you have the right to
    make an appeal to POPLA – The Independent Appeals Service at popla.co.uk. Please be advised that if
    you opt for independent arbitration of your case, the Parking Charge Notice will increase to £100.00
    should the case be decided in our favour. Please quote verification number 3312956XXX.Note: you
    have 28 days in which to appeal to POPLA from the date of this letter. By law we are also required to
    inform you that Ombudsman Services (https://www.ombudsman-services.org/)provides an alternative
    dispute resolution service that would be competent to deal with your appeal. However, we have not
    chosen to participate in their alternative dispute resolution service. As such should you wish to appeal
    then you must do so to POPLA, as explained above.
    3. If you choose to ignore this letter we will seek to recover the monies owed to us via our debt recovery
    procedures and may proceed with Court action against you.
    Yours Sincerely
    Appeals Coordinator
