    I was in holiday but I don't really bother with POPLA. Try it for the LOLs, if you must.

    Most people lose but nobody pays.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Thank you @Coupon-mad. I hope you had a nice holiday.
    So, I submitted the appeal earlier this week and got the below response from POPLA

    Dear,

    The operator has contacted us and told us that they have withdrawn your appeal.

    If you have already paid your parking charge, this is the reason your appeal will have been withdrawn. Unfortunately, you cannot pay your parking charge and appeal, which means that POPLA’s involvement in your appeal has ended. You will not be able to request a refund of the amount paid in order to resubmit your appeal to us.

    If you have not paid your parking charge, the operator has reviewed your appeal and chosen to cancel the parking charge. As the operator has withdrawn your appeal, POPLA’s involvement has now ended and you do not need to take any further action.

    Kind regards

    POPLA Team


    Massive thanks to everyone who has helped.

    On a technicality, how can the operator withdraw your appeal?

    It goes along with all the other stupid things that POPLA write like "below is the supporting rational for my decision" instead of rationale.
