    And so we should make appeals to gather enough evidence to demonstrate a systematic failing.
    I think we are little late for that

    Well, I'm still going to advise that the generic IAS appeal is submitted as in the vast majority of these cases, it ends up as a claim that is either struck out or discontinued, if they follow the advice and at the end of the day, it will have cost the scammer an extra £15 on top of their claim costs and anything else.

    Of course, if you are the kind of person who is lucky enough to find hens tooth, it will have cost them £25 for an IAS appeal win. If the operator is being mingy and doesn't want to risk further costs, they can simply concede the appeal. 

    It's a risk free, two minute copy and paste job that inflicts further effort for the operator to ahem to deal with. Why let them off so easily when we already know their MO. Of course Will Hurley will get richer but that is not the aim. That's the IPC AOS members problem to deal with, if they're at all bothered.

    It's never too late. Any time IAS reject an appeal for a case which turns out to have no legs in court we use that to pressure the government (whoever it is at the time) / DVLA to justify their use as an approved appeals service.
