Dispute Resolution Hearing - focus of my appeal

dave18

Hello, I will be attending a dispute resolution hearing in a months time, for a PCN. on grounds of not being a customer of the premises (I was) and photos show me leaving and renentering the site as went to withdraw cash before visiting cash only shop on the premises. I did not overstay my time limit. I attended a DRH last year, where the arbitrator glossed over minutae of parking legislation and won as arbitrator felt claim of parking outside white line was overbearing given the tight spacing of the parking site. 

What should I focus on at this hearing as the only evidence provided by the parking company are photos showing me leaving and entering the parking site on foot. The issue I have is have no receipts from the premises I visited. Any advice?

1) Euro Parking Services is claimant
2) Tesco Express car park, jewellery quarter Birmingham 
3) Signage says "for customers whilst you remain on the property"
4) Crossed zebra crossing to withdraw cash from atm opposite car park,not on premises.
5) Appeals used to now using model responses, focusing on signage and was customer of cash only shop on premises

Which Car Parking Company?

What happened when you complained to the Landowner?

Surely there are photos of the vehicle in question, not just photos of a random person entering and leaving on foot.

surely the focus of an appeal should be how poorly the signs show the details of the "so called" contract which says the driver of the car can't leave the site. 

What if the driver doesn't leave the site but their passenger does?

In addition, was the site boundary defined on the signs by words or a map? Some signs just state parking is for customers only, which the OP appears to have been. Some however state customers only whilst on site, which is where the query about define the boundary comes in. 
There's also the question about the PPC being required to mitigate their loss by warning a driver not to leave the site rather than taking a photo' of them afterwards.

Do they have any evidence of 'me' being the driver?

Have you identified yourself as the driver in any appeals?

Ask yourself this... how do they know the individual in the photo is you? Do you think that you, as a private individual, could take a phot of a random person in the street and then identify that person from the photo? How do you think you'd be able to do that?

Unless, of course, you tell the PPC that the photo they have is, in fact, you and that you were the driver and therefore liable for the charge.
