Appealing APCOA without expired code

joepa

I received an airport parking fine letter from APCOA after 28 days due to it arriving at my old address (I had not notified DVLA yet of my address change)
I would like to appeal it using the standard format of not identifying the driver but the option to do this on APCOA site has expired. I tried emailing POPLA (enclosing evidence of the change of address) but they replied that they cannot step in unless they have an appeal code from a rejected appeal from the PPC. Do I try to prevail on POPLA or simply find an email address for APCOA and submit my appeal via that medium?
Thanks!

Simply inform DPO@apcoa.com of your current address
To late to appeal and its only apcoa
Nothing to do with POPLA
You will get letters at your old address from Debt recovery plus. Inform them of your new address via their live chat

Are you saying that at no stage in the future will there be any point in communicating to anyone (apcoa/debt recovery/court) the legal basis to reject the fine and this legal challenge is only valid within 28 days of the fine?

Not a fine
Apcoa are currently harmless and yes normally 28 days 
Your not paying so there is no issue

So basically I should update address as above then ignore all letters on the assumption that they will not go to court (/cross that bridge if and when it comes to it)?

ChirpyChicken

That is correct

Thanks very much for your assistance! I will ignore unless i get a "letter before court"...

Coupon-mad

You won't get that. APCOA sue nobody.

Just checking whether this looks serious enough that I would have to take notice?

Is this just a bluff and I can afford to wait?

Ignore. Just out of interest what is it you believe you can do on the basis of that txt

That is a lie, they cannot just "obtain a County Court Judgement CCJ" I assume that stupid text is from Debt Recovery Plus, how did they get your mobile number? Just block it!
