I got a fine from BPA/Parking Eye after paying for parking at a hospital. The fine says the carpark was a staff one. Do I appeal with a bank statement and record of account or state I wasn't the driver?

Thanks

It is not a fine. It is merely a speculative invoice!

Try contacting PALS at the hospital and ask them to get it cancelled. They can do so, so be polite but firm.

Saying what?

Did the Notice to Keeper have a paragraph on the reverse side headed Protection of Freedoms Act?

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.

I’m not sure PALS will help if you were not there as a patient.

What did you put in your appeal?
