    If you didn't supply a postal address I fear you wasted that appeal opportunity.

    As for "Can't remember what I wrote on the form...", I find it amazing that you didn't keep a copy of what you sent.

    To confirm where/who the appeal was coming from? Just a guess.

    Perhaps another letter to Smart asking them to cancel again. Point out that their MD and CFo have been removed from office for unspecified behavior. You have the honestly held belief that this behaviour was falsely issuing parking charges and abusing the personal information of drivers.

    See what they come back with.

    The issue here is IF they want to go to court, they have to rebut your beliefs. And as they basically don't know what the hell has gone on at Smart ("independent" investigation ongoing), your guess is as good as theirs.

    Letter received today from smart.

    We have noted the points you raised and would like to confirm that we are cancelling the parking charge notice.

    despite being thick it seems they know when they are on a sticky wicket, unless their recent managerial losses have caused some shake up given the new 2018 BPA CoP plus the impending Private Parking Bill that will see changes in this sc@m industry


    they must have read the IPC CoP and worked out what "de-minimis" means :)


    end of story for now, but dont get complacent as these various sc@mmers infest thousands of car parks in the UK and issue over 5 million tickets per annum
