PoS!
That should be added to the list of forum acronyms.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" - Laks4 -
Interestingly unless you pay within 3 days of the event, the Web portal for Gatwick actually prevents a manual payment.
Almost like they want to issue a £100 PCN rather than accept a payment. Imagine.6 -

Received a PCN dated 1/9/2022 for a drop off at Gatwick on 2/7/2022. However, I have an Autopay account set up and it seems that the visit wasn't recorded. Previous and subsequent visits in this car were recorded (we use Gatwick a lot)
When appealing do I simply mention that or do I need to add anything else?Certainly no ticking 'DRIVER' on the dropdown menu.The answer is as above (advice quoted from earlier in this thread). No saying who was driving or the story of what happened! It is a cinch to beat.mrpsmith said:Short and to the point appeal submitted.

You only need to start a new thread if you need help for POPLA stage, if they do not cancel this outright.
I think you will find it a cinch and won't even need a thread.
We don't need to see the NTK, we know it is non-POFA and that you will win as long as you do NOT tick 'driver' and do not add words that imply it (No 'I did this' or 'the NTK arrived months after I WAS THERE').PCN was received after 3 months of alleged contraventionJust add that fact the timeline, WITHOUT saying who was driving) to the template appeal in the NEWBIES thread and state 'this is a non-POFA NTK and I refuse your invitation to name the driver, so you will lose at POPLA and may as well cancel now.
Tell us when it works!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Thank you
However, this was the text I used in my succesful appeal - The subject vehicle was on Autopay and visits in this vehicle have successfully been paid for by Autopay both prior to and subsequent to the alleged incident.1
