Parking Eye PCN Tower Road Newquay

#2 and #3 are already written as templates in the NEWBIES thread post #3 about POPLA stage, Jack.

2) ParkingEye has no standing or authority to pursue charges or to form contracts with drivers using this particular car park.
3) The car park signage was inadequate.

and #4 can be the template about 'the appellant has not been shown to be the individual liable'.

Woohooooo!!!

"Thank you for submitting your parking charge Appeal to POPLA.

An Appeal has been opened with the reference xxxxxxxxx.

Parking Eye Ltd have told us they do not wish to contest the Appeal. This means that your Appeal is successful and you do not need to pay the parking charge.

Yours sincerely

POPLA Team"

RedX, Coupon-mad and Edna Basher I cannot thank you guys and this forum enough for your help and time with this!!

My appeal was pretty much word for word what Edna put above.

Thanks again

Hooray!

By the way, we are guys and girls on this forum - I'm female. Happy to help, always works re Tower Road which is a shocking cash cow for them.

What an utter waste of your time and distress caused to you by this rip-off scam, though.

Please now complain to your MP and the local Newquay MP about this, as per this post:

Excellent - well done Jack.

But as C-M points out, shame on PE for wasting your time by escalating their futile claim to POPLA.

Hi, Ive had a POPLA appeal rejected. We paid to park at Tower Street Newquay while we were in Newquay for a family holiday. The PayByPhone app wouldn't let us park beyond 6pm. The ticket machine also spat out money to my sister-in-law to pay beyond 6pm, leading us to assume it was free after 6pm. We overstayed according to the camera snaps by 19 minutes and we have been issued PCN's for £100. (My sister-in-law didn't appeal and has paid her £60 PCN)


I appealed through Parking Eye, then through POPLA and they have rejected our appeal. The car park was almost empty when we left at 18.13. we returned to the car at 6pm, got ourselves sorted (kids in car, made a phonecall) and left at 6.13pm. We entered the car park at 15.56.


We have been advised that there is a ten minute grace period, so we have been charged an unbelievable £100 for 9 minutes over the allotted time. This was absolutely unintentional and we had paid to park.


Do you have any advice on how we can get round having to pay the extortionate £100 fine? Thanks!

Redx

you should start your own thread

all you can do now is wait for up to 6 years for an LBC or an MCOL and then fight them through the courts (as there is no "next step")

clearly you did not argue clause #13 of the BPA CoP strongly enough to POPLA

there are TWO grace periods , not one

and its not a "fine" , its an invoice

plus the BEAVIS case 2 years ago will have put paid to any claims that you think the INVOICE is extortionate or unconcionable
