Excel Parking fine

That is to Excel, if they reject, then they are offering the discount.
If it goes to the IAS after, no discount.
As you are in time with Excel, then your husband needs to appeal as keeper stating he was at work at the time and was not in the car park.
They will probably ask your husband to name the driver which he will not and then Excel has to prove who the driver was.
Do not talk to excel or give any further info that they already have which is the Keeper and address ... that's all they know and it must stay that way
Ok, I feel like it's becoming a little clearer now. Or maybe not(??) Am I right in thinking the following:
Hubby, in the first instance, appeals to Excel claiming that he was at work. (Is everyone in agreement that if he appeals to Excel telling the truth (that it was his wife, his disabled MIL, a misunderstanding over a BB, and a till malfunction in Toys R Us) that it will get us nowhere?)
Then, when this gets rejected, we then send the IPC template letter?
I'm sorry if I'm coming across as stupid, but I've carefully re-read all the responses (whilst checking the acronym sticky thread) and I'm still confused as to what we send to whom and when.
The PCN asks us to email them (Excel). Lots of advice on here has told me to send the IPC template - but do I send that to Excel?!
I'm still so confused by it all.0 -
Do Excel REALLY NEVER drop a charge after an appeal? What about all the people who accidentally key in the wrong reg plate? I'm staggered that we really will get nowhere with our explanation of what actually happened. I must be very naive.0

It is confusing, so much so that even the government don't understand.
Yes your hubby appeals simply stating the fact that he as keeper was at work elsewhere at the time.
Simple and end of. You still have cards to play but as far as Excel are concerned, the Keeper was elsewhere.
You need to see how they will play their cards.
The IPC/IAS template is for IPC only and NOT for Excel.
A simple email to Excel.
Remember, Excel addressed this to the Keeper and the reply comes from the keeper with a statement that he was elsewhere.0 -
Perfect, thank you.
Anybody know the odds on Excel reading his "appeal" that says he knows nothing about it as he was at work, and them not pursuing it any further?
Also, will his email to Excel saying that he was at work considered to be "an appeal"? (And therefore giving us the option to pay £60 if they throw it out).0 -
Not sure what you're advising here, BG? Why not for Excel, they're IPC AOS members?The IPC/IAS template is for IPC only and NOT for Excel.
The more the OP tries to 'explain' to Excel, the more danger of a slip up.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

As with all the parking scammers, their aim in life is to say NO, most of us think they do not read it anyway.
They only want money, valid reasons don't count.
However, the courts are waking up to their scam and in particular the so called solicitors they use.

So are you suggesting I DO send the IPC template to Excel as my appeal?
This is why I'm so confused. I feel like different people are saying different things.
The Notice from Excel says to appeal to Excel (or pay up). Now, do we send the IPC or do we send an email from Hubby that says "sorry, wasn't me, I was at work".0 -

As Umkomaas says "The more the OP tries to 'explain' to Excel, the more danger of a slip up.
That is your answer0 -
Send the IPC template. If your husband wants to add a paragraph, OK, but be very careful not to indicate who might have been driving and don't expect anything other than a rejection of the appeal by Excel.
You are entering this appeal to make the statement that you have followed due process and have not been unreasonable in totally ignoring them.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum.
