Parking eye appeal 3 days left

Hi, 

I have not posted about this parking charge  before.
 I sent an appeal but they said they need the name of the keeper and if I don't tell them then I am liable. I have searched other threads and seen a template that says the signs are illegible and then it mentions about the land not owning to them.

In my appeal I used the template but adjusted it as 'the driver' did try to pay for parking via phone, Online and then by going to the church of whose car park it was, realising that they couldn't pay they left, they are trying to charge me the keeper for my car being there 10 minutes even though I supplied evidence of the web page not working and the call history to pay for parking.

Because I have used this in the appeal I can't use the signs illegible reason. I am hoping to go to POPLA maybe that would help but I have 3 days left to send them further info. I can't find out who land owner is and the church seems to be not in function anymore. 

Should I just use the template about they are not landowners? And request a POPLA code?

    I doubt that they asked you for keeper details,  more likely they asked you the keeper for driver details  !

    Clearly the driver could not complete the parking contract so left promptly,  but presumably not quickly enough for Parking Eye,  so 10 minutes on site

    Sorry I meant to say driver, this is the letter but I just want to know is sending the template useful enough, as I mentioned before I have already said they tried to pay so I can't now say the signs are illegible and all that?
    Am I able to say that bit about the parking charge outweighs the 'crime'? Can't remember it off top of my head but I didn't write in in my initial appeal.

    Sit on your hands and wait it out,  after which they will contact you with either a rejection and popla code,  or a cancellation

    Oh I thought to get a rejection or something I would need to reply to this letter? I haven't contacted them since this letter.

    A few other threads I have read, the people have replied to this letter.

    You think I would win at POPLA? Literally tried to pay. Couldn't and so driver left, ridiculous they ignored it and just want driver details.

    Sit it out, no replying,  not yet anyway,  they should let you know something after the self imposed deadline 

    Popla is a lottery,  so I wont predict anything about chances

    Sometimes appeal reply ends up in your junk mail so keep checking there too until it's received.

    But that's the opposite of what it says.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
