    Please put some paragraphs and line spacing in your previous post. That way someone might actually look at it.

    It would be useful to see your actual appeal as well, not just the PoPLA response.

    edit.

    It's gone.

    My original POPLA appeal is on my desktop PC hard drive which is in for repair. Hope it won't be long.

    I hope you mentioned lack of signage and included those photos. Complain to the lead adjudicator about the poor process.

    It would also be useful to see the text of the rejection.

    Seeing the PoPLA response you posted earlier, but with paragraphs and line spacing, would still be useful.

    Will the POPLA error help my case ?
    No.

    Send a SAR to Minster Baywatch's Data Protection Officer by email (see their privacy page). Ask for the POPLA evidence pack as you never saw it, and all other data held, including case notes (electronic or human) before or since POPLA, and all photos held even if not shown to POPLA.

    [FONT=&quot]The terms and conditions of the car park were not properly signed [/FONT]box ticked

    [FONT=&quot]7. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Appeal summary[/FONT][FONT=&quot] - Please use this space to tell us your reasons for appealing. You may continue on a separate sheet if necessary.[/FONT]


    [FONT=&quot]My challenge is on the basis that the minimum standards set out in the BPA Code of Practice. Section 18.3 and POFA 2012 have not been met. [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]viz: ‘You must place signs containing the specific parking terms throughout the site, so that drivers are given the chance to read them at the time of parking or leaving their vehicle….’[/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]In fact there was no signage within 100m of my parked car.

    Please find enclosed photographic evidence (photos and videos) showing no signage in the parking area (taken on 19/08/2018) see link below : [/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]hxxps://photos.app.goo.gl/99TVu3QPqbLTDL2J9[/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]These show the position where the car (white car in photographs) was parked and clearly show a lack of signage (ie no signage at all) in the parking area (field). [/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]Also [/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]The NTK states [/FONT][FONT=&quot]‘[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Parking fee not paid in full[/FONT][FONT=&quot]’[/FONT][FONT=&quot].[/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]On 14 Sep 2018 Minster Baywatch wrote[/FONT][FONT=&quot]‘[/FONT][FONT=&quot]After having thoroughly examined the payment records for the date and time in question, we can find no payment having been made for your vehicle or a vehicle with a similar registration[/FONT][FONT=&quot]’[/FONT][FONT=&quot].[/FONT]

    [FONT=&quot]The above statement made by Minster Baywatch is incorrect and misleading.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The fact is that a parking ticket was purchased (and displayed ) for a period of 6hrs. (This fact can be corroborated by 5 adults who were present at the time). [/FONT][FONT=&quot]

    OK but you are now getting a copy of the POPLA evidence from their side.
