MET Parking Services advice

[lapyiwin]

I have just become a victim of Met Parking yesterday for parking just 30 mins to get cash out and fine says driver not at the premiese. To make matter worse, my first baby is due 2 weeks. Have 14 days to pay the fine. I am planning take John advice above and send them the letter 1 by using his amazing template. He offered to send second letter but I m not sure if he is still a active user on this forum as his original post dated back 8th July 2014. Does anyone have his Letter number 2 for Popla appeal? I am sure Met Parking will reject my first letter and send me popla code. I really need 2nd Letter for Popla. Could anyone help, PLEASE!

So they placed a ticket on the vehicle ?

If you haven't sent a letter, don't. Wait for the notice to keeper to arrive between days 28 & 56.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

HI Mystery1. yes I found the ticket on the windscreen of my car. I don't know whether to ignore completely or write to them to with John 's letter? Some says writing to them makes them chase you more? I don't know. Completely stressed now.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

Do not write to them until you get a letter through the post.

When you get it post it up.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

Hello Mystery1, while I am waiting for the Notice to keeper letter in the post, may I ask why it is necessary to wait rather than write to them immediately next day? Forgive me for my ignorance as I have no idea about the reason behind it. Thanks so much.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

When chasing the keeper they have more hoops to jump through and usually they can't which makes it easier to win.

Hello @mystery1,

They sent me a letter in the post. As per your advice, I have posted it up as below. They spelled my first name slightly wrong too. Any advice or guidance to fight back will be greatly appreciated.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

Dear Sirs,


I, as registered keeper, wish to invoke your appeals process. The driver did not see any signs. I note your notice to keeper is fundamentally flawed when compared to PoFA 2012 schedule 4 para 8 in several aspects .


Should you reject my appeal please supply a popla code.


Yours etc




If popla is need let me know.

Re: MET Parking Services advice

Ok, no results from new popla yet so i'd say wait until either 11,12,13th or 17,18,19th of Jan when i'll be off work and gives best chance of seeing results and refining the appeal to give the best odds of winning :okay:
