    Also I'm unsure how to make my text document & pics into a pdf file to submit to POPLA?
    Doesn't your favourite word processor allow you to imbed images and then save the document as a pdf?

    I think most of the photos from UKPC show no lines and are enough!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Appeal submitted yesterday and I've had this response today, so will wait & see what happens in the future. Thanks to everyone that has helped so far! 

    We have adjourned your appeal 

     

    Thank you for raising your appeal with POPLA.  

     

    POPLA understands that during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is going to be difficult or impossible for motorists and operators to effectively appeal. In the interests of fairness, we have decided to adjourn all appeals received 28 November onwards in addition to some appeals received shortly before this time. Adjournment means that appeals will be put on hold and we will take no action until things return to normal. It also means operators are not allowed to chase payment while this appeal is registered with POPLA. 

     

    We have placed your appeal on hold. When we start considering appeals again, we will write to affected parties and let them know what steps we need them to take, if any, to ensure everyone gets a fair opportunity to put their case forward. 

     

    Please check our website and your inbox regularly for more information and updates. 

     

    Kind regards 

    POPLA Team



    POPLA administered by The Ombudsman Service Limited

    We know about the suspension of the POPLA process. They are already 3 months behind schedule and there must be one hell of a backlog piling up. It will take until the summer to make any inroads into it. 
    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. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Nice one!  I expect many PPCs with furloughed staff won't have the capacity to put together a challenge to a well worked POPLA appeal. Great win, well done. 👏
