thats fine to attach a copy of your evidence as well as the appeal written earlier, as long as its clear that the DRIVER has provided the KEEPER with the paid for ticket (hint) as proof that the parking contract was valid and not broken either0

thats a very good point red ill be sure to emphasise that the driver supplied it. all in all it prooves the ticket was bought 7 minuets after arrial and the car left 5 minuets after expiry all of which is covered by grace periods.0

Absolute scam, isn't it?!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
CLICK at the top or bottom of any page where it says:

About time the BPA started cracking down on PC flagrant overlooking of the mandatory grace periods contained in its Code of Practice, in the hope that a naive motorist will blindly cough up.
Freakin' chancers!Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

So I've got my POPLA code and im ready to get to work writing the appeal. I've seen a few winning poplas for this exact car park using the same arguments I wanted to use (grace periods, poor signage). I was wondering if its ok to use these as templates and change the details to match my PCN or is it better to write them from scratch? If i should use iit as a template ill fill in my own version in the comments with a link to the original.
Edit: I've just remembered when I got my rejection email saying id lost the "initial appeal" I recieved 2 near identical emails. One saying that the Driver hadn't paid for sufficient parking one saying that the driver hadn't paid for any parking. is this something I can use? do I reference the email with a screenshot saying the driver didn't pay to park then show my parking ticket and ignore the other email to help discredit the claim?0 -
If you have an appeal that was previously successful for the same place, and your situation matches, then I would base your appeal on that one.
Just make sure you use ALL the relevant appeal points available to you from post 3 of the NEWBES that are relevant.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.

This is an entirely unregulated industry which is scamming the public with inflated claims for minor breaches of contracts for alleged parking offences, aided and abetted by a handful of low-rent solicitors.
Parking Eye, CPM, Smart, and another company have already been named and shamed, as has Gladstones Solicitors, and BW Legal, (these two law firms take hundreds of these cases to court each year). They lose most of them, and have been reported to the regulatory authority by an M.P. for unprofessional conduct
Hospital car parks and residential complex tickets have been especially mentioned.
The problem has become so rampant that MPs have agreed to enact a Bill to regulate these scammers. Watch the video of the Second Reading in the HofC recently.
