Parking eye appeal rejected. WON

[AK-EFC]

Hi all.

I recently had a parking charge from parking eye which I appealed with advice off the forum, I received a letter today saying it had been rejected and they provided me with a popla code.

It says on the letter my appeal was unsuccessful due to the fact that parking tariffs apply at this car park. On further investigation our records show that insufficient time was paid for on the date of the parking event.

I am positive I paid for 2.5 to 3 hours and on the charge notice it says I was at the car park for 2 hours 49 minutes. Yet they are charging me 100 pound!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you.

Here's a link to a standard letter for appealing to PoPLA which is successful.
You will have to check the details to make sure they apply and amend as required

Re: Parking eye appeal rejected.

Thank you for the reply! I'm assuming I just take out the paragraphs about it being a free car park?? like this one:

There was no parking charge levied, the car park is “free”. On the date of the claimed loss it was nearly empty and there was no physical damage caused. There can have been no loss arising from this incident. Neither can Parking Eye lawfully include their operational day-to-day running costs in enforcing parking restrictions at the site (for example, by erecting signage and employing administration staff) in any 'loss' claimed. See VEHICLE CONTROL SERVICESLIMITED -v- MR R IBBOTSON and A Retailer v Ms B and Ms K, Oxford County Court. This does not represent a loss resulting from a breach of the alleged parking contract. In other words, were no breach to have occurred, the cost of parking enforcement would still have been the same. This has been quoted by PoPLA itself in adjucation.



is there anything else to take out or maybe add in??

Thanks for for your help.
