my POPLA appeal was unsuccessful because apparently the signage is clear and therefore as I parked without intending to use the shops (as it was a Sunday morning and they were all closed) I am liable. So I guess I should pay.0

IMO the PoPLA decision is wrong. How can 300+ words of densely packed small print, some seven off the ground, and exposed to the elements constitute a contract? Is it reasonability?

Pay them not a penny and if they feel lucky, let them take you to court where a judge can decide.
Have you complained to your MP yet?You never know how far you can go until you go too far.0 -
in this case, where I think the decision is wrong and unfair what should I do if POPLA have refused my appeal?0

my MP is Andrea Leadsom but where I was parked, despite being 10 minutes from home has another MP.
how much would going to court cost me if I lost?0 -
You complain to your constituency MP..

You have a defence, based on this frustration of contract, and a witness (your girlfriend):I parked on a Sunday morning at 8.15. I left at 10:00:16 according to my notice. I was late out of the car park because my key ran out of battery and I had to call my gf to come with the spare key.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
