APCOA UK Parking Charge [SUCCESSFULLY CANCELLED]

Hi all,

Just posting a new thread showing that the parking charge I received from APCOA after forgetting to pay their pick-up charge within the 24 hour limit has now been cancelled (woo!)

It took a matter of minutes to copy and paste the below paragraph to their appeal system and within a week it was then cancelled. What a scam!

Thanks for all your advice- you guys are the real heroes of this country! :)

Text used in appeal
This is an appeal by the registered keeper - No driver details will be given. Please do not bother with your known fishing expedition in an attempt to get driver details to try and get around the fact there is no keeper liability (and never can be under POFA). Due to this being airport land you will be well aware there is no keeper liability due to the byelaws in force. As there is no keeper liability then liability cannot flow from the driver to the keeper and thus is an auto win @ POPLA. Please therefore cancel the notice or issue a POPLA code where you will auto withdraw. If you waste your time asking for driver details this will be ignored. So let's save my time and yours and cancel this PCN you simply cannot win this (and you know it).

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