I received a Penalty Notice from a Railway car park, issued by Indigo Park Solutions.
On the Newbie pages, one of the Q&As indicates that "Indigo are not requesting DVLA data for these. Therefore, ignore a windscreen penalty from indigo (only if the location was a railway car park) and wait and see if they issue a notice to keeper at all. Then if they do, appeal as keeper using the template below. It seems likely you will hear nothing, in which case, do nothing."
I did nothing initially and have today received a Notice to Owner!!!8230;.
The advice on the Q&A is to appeal. My question is, should I use the TEMPLATE ''ONE SIZE FITS ALL'' FIRST APPEAL THAT DOESN'T SAY WHO WAS DRIVING template?
ps I today contacted the DVLA with a Vehicle Subject Request.

    You'll find that link on pretty much every other thread.

    Here it is again:

    The 'x' on the end has thrown it.

    The Deep would probably argue that one little 'x' on the end is de minimis. ;)
  • it has been shown over and over again that in railway cases , INDIGO are NOT getting info from DVLA , they are letting ZZPS do all the work
