    Inside Costa itself

    If Costa has the tablet and has the power to extend time, then they CAN cancel PCNs.

    Both you and the other driver need to bombard that Costa Manager with polite but persistent complaints because this is impossible to win on appeal.

    DO NOT BE FOBBED OFF. Carry on.

    Both of you motorists: get your local constituency MPs to write and complain to Costa about this farce, too.

    Really really lean on Costa.

    Look how easy it can be if you say the right things after being knocked back at first:

    If that fails, both ignore CEL but you must tell them if you move house within 6 years.

    That's all. No paying them. Do NOT fund a scam and effectively become a sponsor for it, for an easy life. Not an option.

    Come back only if either of you get a claim form. Easy to defend!

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Another location local to me - happy to assist with any claim, I haven't lost against CEL in several years.
    They almost never have authority to operate in the name "Civil Enforcement Limited", contracts tend to be in a different name.  
    Always remember to abide by Space Corps Directive 39436175880932/B:

    Also bear in mind that CEL usually use DCB Legal, and when they do they always discontinue the court claim.

    Fantastic, as you walk in the door opens and obscures the tablet!  You'd almost think that Costa don't want repeat business.
