    Other way round (keeper has to name the driver) but yes that works.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

  • when would be the latest that could happen, could it be after popla appeal?
  • Why would you risk throwing an almost certain win by giving the PPC the chance to get their act together and get a court claim in against the driver before the deadline which I think is still about 6 months away. If you only had 2 or 3 months you could delay it easily until it is time barred.

    Myself I would stick with not naming the driver and use the protection of POFA on non-relevant land.
  • taking a quick look at the popla appeal site , looks like its designed to catch you out, One of the options is "I was not the driver or the reg keeper" it doesn't give you the option of I WAS the reg keeper but not the driver" very cheeky obviously have to click other.
  • also it insists on a phone number,

    also it insists on a phone number, 
    Use one of these: -
    0333-8888888. This takes callers to a recorded message telling them to contact you by email.
    Whipsnade Zoo - 0344 225 1826
    Weatherspoons - 01923 477 777
    Blackpool Tower - 01253 622242

  • just recieved this from popla.

    Dear xxxxx

    The operator has contacted us and told us that they have withdrawn your appeal.

    If you have already paid your parking charge, this is the reason your appeal will have been withdrawn. Unfortunately, you cannot pay your parking charge and appeal, which means that POPLA’s involvement in your appeal has ended. You will not be able to request a refund of the amount paid in order to resubmit your appeal to us.

    If you have not paid your parking charge, the operator has reviewed your appeal and chosen to cancel the parking charge. As the operator has withdrawn your appeal, POPLA’s involvement has now ended and you do not need to take any further action.

    Kind regards

    POPLA Team


    if needed im happy to post my appeal to popla if it helps others?


  • Well assuming you haven’t paid that sounds like a win !! Well done
