    Customer name redacted.

    Position in unknown alleged customer`s company not given.

    Position in scammers company not given.

    Name and signature of the alleged authorised representative of the unknown company redacted.

    Name and signature of scammer`s alleged representative redacted.

    Date of original contract is 2013.

    No proof that the contract was ever renewed. No proof that contact exists with current landowner.

    Why would anyone hide the above information? The BPA requires a contract to be in place. None of the above contract proves there is such a thing, so the assumption must be that there is not a current contract in place with the current landowner.

    Can you do a quick internet search to find out who the owner is? Often a retail park will have a website giving at least the name of the company/holding company.
    It may just be possible that the current landowner company name is longer than the redacted name on the above alleged contract if you see what I mean. If that is the case then the contract shown cannot possibly be with the current landowner.

    I am of course assuming that you have not redacted any of the information on the alleged contract, and therefore the scammers are trying to hide something.

    The landowner's agent appears to be or have been a company called GVA, but I can't find the landowner details as yet.

    Hi Fruitcake, really sorry I didn’t see this until today, had to submit yesterday. I think I more or less covered the above using other posts so fingers crossed! And no I didn’t redact anything on their contract so obviously they do have something to hide!

    After I’ve submitted comments do the scammers �� get a chance to respond? Or do POPLA decide based on what they have?

    Thank you so much for all your help x

    OK, well all we can do is see what the assessor says.

    If your appeal is rejected then you would have to complain to PoPLA, the BPA, DVLA, and your MP that the scammers did not produce a valid contract with the landowner.

    If the scammers sent PoPLA an unredacted contract to PoPLA then you complain that you didn't get the same evidence as the assessor, so that wasn't fair.

    Good luck.
