We need you:
It's very important that people like you please join us to reply to the new Public Consultation, to tell the Government 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 promised the public. As long as it is independent (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 A THIRD PARTY DEMANDING MORE MONEY AND OFFERING A 'PAYMENT PLAN' WHICH SHOULDN'T COST MORE MONEY, NOT EVEN A PENNY.
c). Tell them about your experience and that your case reached court stage, precisely because (a) and (b) above mean there is no option, no safeguard for consumers EXCEPT to defend court claims and get proper dispute resolution.
Responses are invited to the Consultation now:
