Unable to appeal to POPLA

My windscreen Notice is a 'PENALTY' from a Railway car park, issued by a private firm (Indigo). I appealed the decision but they say I still have to pay and they won't give me a POPLA reference so I am unable to appeal externally. I paid for a day parking ticket using their online app but the app didn't show my full licence plate. I got on the train 5 minutes after parking and emailed them to tell them what had happened but they didn't reply and I had a ticket when I returned to my vehicle. How am I supposed to appeal If I can't use POPLA?

    You don't, you just laugh at them and let it time out (6 months) and complain to your MP.

    Like everyone does on the hundreds of Indigo threads on this board, now you are in the right place, read Indigo Railway threads littered all over this board. No links, search for

    INDIGO RAILWAY
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    There are some other posts in the Newbies thread that could do with splitting too if you have a chance.
