    Definitely will do. I should imagine it very dissatisfying for you to dish out all this advice and not hear of the (hopefully) victorious result.

    Highview always crumble when they see an MSE forum appeal because they know it will cost them money to continue.

    It doesn't matter when you submit the appeal, it's just that so far the quickest cancellation has been 2 hours after the appeal has been submitted, so we are just trying to see if anyone can beat that.

    Yes, I understand. And I would be all up for the race if it weren't for the pesky Gingerbread muncher upstairs :)

    Sadly no record breaker here. I haven't heard anything today. Will update when I do :)

    From personal experience, I got 2 Highview tickets cancelled no bother. On one, I did a single point "out of time" appeal as they missed the deadline. No problem.

    Court cost them money, POPLA costs them money and they would lose more than they could gain if they went to court with a dodgy claim.

    I actually admire their pragmatism, if not their efficiency. They are there to make money, not pyrrhic victories.

    Oh dear, you missed the world record, but still got the gold medal! Well done. Forum advice works. :)
    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. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
