If you never appealed the you cannot appeal to POPLA. You now have to wait and see if/when they issue a Letter of Claim. Please don’t bother telling us about any debt collector letters. You can safely ignore those.

Regarding PoFA, the bit that says: “Failure to pay the full amount of this notice within 28 days of the date of sending…” Now go compare the highlighted bit with PoFA 9(2)(f) and spot the difference in the timeline allowed.

There are other PoFA failures such as 9(2)(a) and (b).

Not quite.

Para 9 of POFA doesn't apply here. It was a case with a windscreen PCN.  But POFA doesn't apply at all because this is a BHCC site.

Also, POPLA never applied here.  OPS are no longer in the BPA AOS so the OP could not have used PoPLA

The thread suggests that this is a recent NTK following a windscreen PCN so (if I'm right with that) the OP is at appeal stage.

On page 1 of this thread I've already said how the OP should appeal, and should try IAS as well for the LOLs, citing the BPA CoP that I think applied on the date of parking.

It makes no sense that the OP cannot log in (to the OPS website) and see the photo of the sign.   I've logged into OPS' website umpteen times and you can always view pictures.  Even a year later.

Try logging in as if to pay. You must be able to see the photos.

What was the date of parking?

What is the date of issue on that NTK?

Hi, thank you. The date of the parking was 24 May 24. The letter is dated 26 June 24.

I did try logging on as if to pay and again as if to appeal but the OPS website does not recognise the reference. 

Is this still the case now?  Can you not even view their photos?

Want to join with me to make a formal complaint to BHCC and the DVLA?

Hi, I will check again tonight. 

Yes, I would be on board with that. What would you recommend?

Back in December? According to my calendar, it still is December.

You stand a 4% chance of winning an IAS appeal, which is why the forum advises against it. If you need further assistance, please read the sticky Announcement for NEWBIES, start your own thread where you will get bespoke help.

Why do you think that? Nobody pays! Nobody uses the useless 'kangaroo court' IAS either You won't be paying a penny.

DO NOT TRY IAS.

DO NOT PAY.

OPS issued 54 PCNs at the Patcham Community Centre car park in 2023. 

https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/parking_charge_notices_issued_by_14/response/2648890/attach/2/PCNs%20issued%20on%20BHCC%20sites%20by%20OPS%2001.01.23%2031.12.23%202.pdf

Do you have an up to date FOI to add here, @ParkingMad ?

I'm told that BHCC have also recently inflicted OPS issuing fake PCNs at £100 a pop (for OPS' own profit, not the Council's) on some of Brighton & Hove seafront.

And (according to the sign) the regime claims to run using ANPR, which as we know, is banned for Council parking enforcement at off-street areas they own (except Housing land, and half the places on the list on your link - such as a Crematorium - are NOT housing land, and nor is the Seafront, nor is Patcham High School & Community Centre).

Hi there,

Picking up on this, we've been issued with a parking charge, parking in the same place as you. Did you manage to appeal and get off the charge or did you have to pay it, in the end?

Fingers crossed you avoided it!

The OP @forummseuser01 has not been around on the forum since January but you might get a response if you send them a DM/PM using the envelope symbol top right and they will receive an email.  Failing that, start a thread of your own and give us the details.

They already did, this morning,  because I remember replying
