Hello all,
I was sent a "parking charge notice" by ParkingEye for carpark overstay (ANPR). I've taken it as far as getting a POPLA code and now I'm a bit nervous and unsure how to proceed. Much of the research I've done online is based on the old POPLA system so some advice on how best to navigate the new system would be much appreciated (or, if this has already been provided before, a nudge in the right direction would be perfect!). Anyway, a recap of the story so far:
On September 6th I parked in Prestatyn Shopping Park for 3 hours and 27 minutes. I genuinely had no idea it was restricted parking and I spent my time there in various shops and the Costa in the shopping park. Apparently there was a limit of 3 hours and I was clocked by ANPR. I live in Scotland, so I'm not able to look back at the signs (and I can't see the car park entrance from street view). I appealed to ParkingEye using hints from various resources I found online (genuine pre-estimate of loss, no-contract etc). This appeal was rejected and I was given a POPLA code.
So, my main question is how to navigate the new POPLA system? What box do I click for grounds of appeal? Should I name myself as driver? Any other hints and tip?
Cheers,
Paul
