I am sorry I don't seem to be able to work out which template letter I need to send for a parking invoice...
Stopped in a Shell garage to fill up then parked to make a call they have now sent letter trying to sting me for 100
I have been to the sticky and am a bit confused as to which I send them
Thanks in Advance

I am hoping its this one after doing a search if you can confirm please..
Dear Sirs
Re: PCN No. ....................
I challenge this 'PCN' as keeper of the car.
I believe that your signs fail the test of 'large lettering' and prominence, as established in ParkingEye Ltd v Beavis. Your unremarkable and obscure signs were not seen by the driver, are in very small print and the terms are not readable to drivers.
There will be no admissions as to who was driving and no assumptions can be drawn. You must either rely on the POFA 2012 and offer me a POPLA code, or cancel the charge.
Should you obtain the registered keeper's data from the DVLA without reasonable cause, please take this as formal notice that I reserve the right to sue your company and the landowner/principal, for a sum not less than £250 for any Data Protection Act breach. Your aggressive business practice and unwarranted threat of court for the ordinary matter of a driver using my car without causing any obstruction nor offence, has caused significant distress to me.
I do not give you consent to process data relating to me or this vehicle. I deny liability for any sum at all and you must consider this letter a Section 10 Notice under the DPA. You are required to respond within 21 days. I have kept proof of submission of this appeal and look forward to your reply.

The easiest way to check is to visit the website and look at what logos are shown. If the one below is shown then they're BPA AOS members, therefore you use the BPA template from the NEWBIES thread.


The example below shows the various other logos - in this example the PPC would be an IPC AOS member:
Note: people get confused because a BPA logo is also shown ... the rectangle logo just means they're corporate members ...the roundel logos denote AOS status (hence which appeal template to use).0 -

Thank you so much yes that's the one.. so the template above is the correct one..
Can I add anything to it or just send as is?0 -
Why would you want to add anything? It's deliberately written as such to avoid giving away critical information (i.e. the identity of the driver).
PS - I presume this is for a PCN in England or Wales?0 -

Get researching POPLA appeals whist you are waiting for the inevitable rejection of your appeal. Parking companies do like making people jump through ever hoop.0

How long do they normally take to reply?0

They have 35 days to reject your appeal.0
