I had already submitting the POPLA Appeal but POPLA emailed the next day that charges were dropped and a day later UKPC sent a weak apologetic standard letter via email too.
Thanks to above posters for guidance and help.

UKPC are known fraudsters, read this

This is an entirely unregulated industry which is scamming the public with inflated claims for minor breaches of contracts for alleged parking offences.
Parking Eye, Smart and a smaller company have already been named and shamed, as has Gladstones Solicitors, and BW Legal, (who take hundreds of these cases to court, and nearly always lose), who have also been reported to the regulatory authority.
The problem has become so rampant that MPs have agreed to enact a Bill to regulate these scammers. Watch the video of the Second Reading in the HofC recently.
