POPLA appeal refused

happyjackhehe

Can anyone advise me please I appealed to POPLA regarding a PCN which stated that I'd stayed at a petrol station for just over three hours what happened was I went to the petrol station my car was collected by a garage and removed with trade plates on the vehicle returned back to the garage with trade plate still on and then trade plates removed obviously the APNR camera assumed I'd been there the whole time. With my appeal to the PCN company and popla I gave them the name of the garage the trade plate number that was used and the contact details for the said garage but these appeals have been refused where do I go from here I'm not happy to pay a fine when there was no contravention made

Debt collectors letters are next 

Followed by a Letter of Claim 

Followed by a court claim 

There is no fine, just an invoice for the alleged breach of the parking contract, court is where a judge will decide the outcome, UNLESS they discontinue before the hearing

So I don't need to worry about ccj I will get to have my say in court?

You would have to follow the process, which may include defending yourself in court. ( You may not be asked to speak in court, the judge will decide if they want information from you. )

If the judge rules against you, you have a grace period of 30 days to pay the judgment in full, to avoid any credit record issues 

So if you lost in court, pay up , in full, ASAP, to swerve any future issues

Thank you that is the way I will proceed 🤞

What did the petrol station that contracted these scammers say when you complained?

And ask the garage to please email a SAR to the parking firm to request all images of the Trade Plate captured by their ANPR cameras at that site on that date.

If they'll do that one simple email (given they caused this) then it will give you the evidence you need.

Which PPC?

Sorry I didn't complain to the petrol station just appealed because I new that I hadn't broken any restrictions and a mistake had been maid by the APNR camera as it would have looked like I had been there for some time  but I wasn't my vehicle left and returned with different plates trade plates  on and my plates covered up
