Contest PCN when no ticket bought because driver was ill

Coupon-mad

When you comment to the operator's evidence can you upload the photo's then?

No, you can't.

The NtK in question

Why didn't you get rid of those redundant words I crossed out?

I showed you how to cull words. Proof reading and culling words is easy. You can do the rest!

Decision Unsuccessful
Assessor Name
Assessor summary of operator case
The operator has issued the Parking Charge Notice (PCN) due to no valid pay and display/ permit was purchased.
Assessor summary of your case
The appellant has not provided a summary of the reasons for the appeal.
Assessor supporting rational for decision
The appellant has been identified as the keeper; as such, I will be considering their liability for the PCN as the keeper. The Protection of Freedoms Act (PoFA) 2012 sets out provisions for an operator to pursue the registered keeper of a vehicle, if a driver cannot be identified. For example: when issuing a PCN for an event where it has been unable to issue the notice to the vehicle directly. As the operator is seeking to pursue the keeper, I have reviewed the notice against the relevant sections of PoFA 2012, and I am satisfied that the operator has complied with the act. As such, the registered keeper is now liable for the charge. POPLA is an evidence-based organisation. As such, we can only consider the information that is provided to us when we are making a decision regarding an appeal. The appellant has not provided a summary of the reasons for the appeal. The operator has provided a case file including information to support their side of the appeal. After reviewing the evidence, I can only conclude that the PCN has been issued correctly as there is no information to explain why it has not been issued correctly. As such, I conclude the PCN has been issued correctly. Accordingly, I must refuse this appeal.

POPLA couldn't really help then...their hands were tied with no appeal to read...

Except it's odd they missed this glaring omission in evidence:

The photos are all taken in day light my 'offence' happened in the dark.

So now you are in 'ignore mode' like all the other Euro POPLA lost threads. No worries; those are search keywords in bold, for you to use in the forum search box and see for sure that people lose at POPLA v ECP, and NOTHING HAPPENS.

A letter has arrived today to the Registered Keeper from Debt Recovery Plus Ltd giving until 22/2/2019 to pay in full or make arrangements to pay. The charge is now £160

It is ok to ignore this according to post4 on newbies I just thought I would keep the thread up to date.

They have stated that 'The person liable for this parking charge is the person who was the driver when it was issued. In certain circumstances, liability can be transferred to the registered keeper. If you are not sure that you are liable, phone us and we will look ito it. If we don't hear from you, we will take this to mean that you agree you are liable for it '

The company that you owe money to has instructed DRP to recover their money without further delay. It is in your own best interests to either pay in full now or contact us immediately on xxxxxxxxx

DRP recommends that you deal with your parking charge as soon as possible to avoid potential further action. If you do not pay we will recommend to our client that they take legal action to recover the monies owed, therefore it is essential that you contact us to either arrange payment or give us your reason for not paying. See County Court Judgments.

We're pleased you've taken on board the NEWBIES advice and are aware you can ignore DC letters. Here's one more bit of advice ... we've seen these all before so we don't need to know about each and every DC letter you receive.

If you receive an actual LBC* (or court claim) then please come back to this thread.

* A real LBC won't say "may", "invite our clients", "recommend" or any other woolly words like that. It'll be explicit and will say that court action "will" follow. It'll also say to pay the PPC ... if it doesn't then it's just another DC letter.

Keep those letters because DRP work on a no collection, no fee basis so they should not try to fleece an extra £60.00 from you.
