It's fine that you have 'appealed' but it will be auto-rejected. I need your permission if you want me to complain about TNC to the BPA.
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

I think you will probably have to write a short e-mail/letter sent to @Coupon-mad by PM so she can use it to prove that she has indeed received your permission - anyone can write what you did on a forum but is it really proof?anxiousboxkitten said:Coupon-mad said:It's fine that you have 'appealed' but it will be auto-rejected.

REALLY IMPORTANT THIS MONTH:Please please (please) do this and give the Government your evidence - the horrific Notice to Keeper letter telling you that you are 'too kate to contest it'.
Tell the DLUHC about what receiving an extortionate 3 figure demand feels like to a vulnerable person:

Explained there.
PLEASE READ AND JOIN US.
It's one email. One question. It will take you minutes.
Make sure you attach the letter to provide evidence that TNC have said you can't appeal because it 'can't be contested' even though this is the first NTK and of course you can dispute it.
State at the start of your email response to the DLUHC, that you are a consumer and are answering Question 4.
Tell them that a Notice to Keeper that threatens an increasing extortionate charge ('we will add £70 if you don't pay!') does not feel fair. The threat of it going up makes you anxious but far less likely to settle something that feels like a scam. The threat of a £70 increase is a joke but it doesn't feel at all funny and you aren't laughing. This has really scared you.
Say that you want your evidence to assist the DLUHC to please protect motorists and cap parking charges so that they cannot increase before a court claim. It is scary enough that parking firms might sue motorists and will add court fees on top. There is no need for another 'fee' in the middle, which surely just unfairly duplicates what are supposed to be maximum capped court fees and makes a lot of money for TNC. This seems completely unnecessary as a bullying stage.
Change the law... we already are...PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
