Look up and quote the full name of the ADR act. You are allowed access to alternative dispute resolution (an independent appeal) in accordance with the above act for up to one year.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.

Was the car on short-term hire, or do you have it on a much longer lease. Whichever is the case use either 'hirer' or 'lessee' throughout, don't mix and match the terms.I am the one that signed the car rental agreement, if that's what you mean.
By illegal I am referring to them not giving me the POPLA code. Should I not mention that?
By all means refer to the non-provision of a POPLA code, but it's not illegal not to do so.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

OK, got the impression that they were required by law to provide me with a popla code.
Under those terms I was the hirer. It was a short rental, for 4 days. My first language is not English, so I may struggle with some nomenclature.0 -

Just be consistent in nomenclature ... innit!

Myself and ParkingMad who also posts here, know it well! Muhahahahaaa!It is on Eastgate Wharf in Lewes. I tried to post links to map and street view,
It's the small one between the hospice shop and Laura Ashley.
They keep trying Brighton/Lewes court claims and laughably, OPS KEEP LOSING, LOL!
Anyway:
(a) warn the registered keeper rental firm, NOT TO PAY and that they are about to get a second letter because the parking firm is unlawfully refusing to consider your appeal as the person who hired this vehicle, and that you have complained about this to the BPA because the registered keeper has transferred liability to the hirer, who cannot be denied a right to appeal
(b) complain to the BPA that you appealed as hirer (without naming the driver, as is your right) after being named as hirer by the rental firm. OPS are now refusing to accept your appeal to your Notice to Hirer, calling you a 'third party' and saying they are now going to unlawfully revert to the rental firm and ignore your right to appeal as hirer and have refused to give you a POPLA code:

Might be worth the OP confirming this ... did he/she respond to a windscreen PCN? If yes then it seems that the hire company are wholly unaware of the issue at this time, so saying this in any communication may be false.0 -

Line 1 of the first post would imply this, but it does need to be confirmed.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.All my screwdrivers are cordless."You're Safety Is My Primary Concern Dear" - Laks0 -

There was no windscreen PCN. OPS contacted the registered keeper directly. This was through a car hiring platform called Hyiacar, where people rent their personal (or not) car directly to other people. The car owner contacted me as soon as he received communication from OPS and sent them the rental agreement, where it states that I was hiring the car for that period. I have contacted the owner again, to let them know about the situation and he said that OPS went back to him saying that I was denying being the driver (which I didn't do - didn't deny or confirm that).0
