Yes, terrible mistake... So far I only received their letter requesting the full payment after popla rejected my appeal. 

Oh that's nothing. I thought you had a court claim already. You'll get the £170 threatograms next but you've seen all those in pictures in the 4th post of the NEWBIES thread.

And if you want to be part of the push to change things in future, it's very important that people like you tell the Government NOW that:

a) you have no faith in POPLA or the IAS and that there must be the SINGLE APPEALS SERVICE that the Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019 *almost* promised. As long as it is fully independent and impartial (and only ONE appeals service, not two involved in a race to the bottom) that will give a real option to resolve disputed cases out of court.

b).  THAT THE ENRICHMENT OF 'DEBT RECOVERY FEES' MUST BE COMPLETELY BANNED. DISPUTED CASES ARE NOT SOLVED BY DEMANDING MORE MONEY AND ENGINEERING A 'PAYMENT PLAN'.

c). Tell them about your experience and the POPLA outcome that means you will now ignore all the £170 demands and will be happy to use the only fair dispute resolution: court.
