The point is that you appeal giving a name and address, not saying who was driving, in order to STOP them remembering to get your data from the DVLA. To make them forget that bit, reply to your appeal rejecting it and time themselves out to issue any NTK.

Hmmm, perhaps I could use a made up name then? John Smith etc.

So, if the letter arrives there tomorrow or Friday that should hopefully then stop them remembering to get my data from the DVLA, they will probably almost systematically reply with a rejection, and hopefully by day 56 no NTK will have been received so if in the future any LBC is received I can go to Court to point out their non-compliance of POFA2012.

That's the point! That's why we recommend doing this at this time (keep proof of posting, a free certificate of posting from the PO Counter, 1ST CLASS, staple it to your copy of your letter, as proof. NOT RECORDED DELIVERY - NOTHING TRACKED/SIGNED FOR, NONONO.

OK - I will attach a 1st class stamp and hand it to someone behind a PO counter after requesting a free certificate of posting.

Do not phone them up, do not email them if this is not offered on the PCN. Stop trying to re-invent the wheel - we know what we are doing. So yes, a name and address of the keeper IS at the top of the letter.

OK, I will not telephone them.

Whilst the thought had occurred to me before, re other cases, we would not recommend that...lies have a habit of coming back to bite people.

Yes exactly, doing the appeal this way creates an issue (hopefully) because their clerk in 'appeals' will assume it's a driver appeal - hence a lot of PPCs then believe there is no need to get DVLA data - yet you will not have said who was driving (so they should get DVLA data anyway!).

We'll see if it works, it does with small firms lots of the time. No NTK is fatal for them.

The PPC have written back.

"Thank you for your letter of appeal received on 27/10/2016. We have spoken to LYPFT and they have advised me they have informed you of this cancellation.

Please use this letter as confirmation of this cancellation."

Case closed, I think.
