    Starbucks parking scam at Stansted MET parking services

    Hello I see many others been cause out by this scam. I was not the driver but the driver parked at starbucks after closing and popped into McDonalds for 20 minutesand subsequently received a parking ticket... I have appealed to MET but naturally no help so wish to appeal to POPLA. I s the following for the appeal but can you help further so I get the wording right...
    I would suggest you appeal to POPLA (https://appealform.popla.co.uk/#/StartAppeal/Index)

    You will need to show (i) (by means of photos and a site plan) that the signage was inadequate to form a contract
    and (ii) that the NTK failed to comply with the requirements of POFA2012 to transfer the driver's liability for the parking charge to the keeper (as mentioned in the letter you sent to MET)

    Before sending you appeal post it up here so we can advise further if necessary

            I do not provide advice by PM although I may on occasion ask you to send me documents this way but any related advice will be provided back on your thread.

            I do my best to provide good practical advice, however I do so without liability.
            If you have any doubts then do please seek professional legal advice.

            You can’t always stop the waves but you can learn to surf.

            You are braver than you believe, smarter than you think and stronger than you seem.

              Sorry to hear of your health problems.

              Regarding the parking Charge, it is now too late to appeal to POPLA, and there is no point appealing to Debt Recovery Plus as all they want is your cash.

              You will eventually receive a court claim.

              The mainline of defence will be that as you were not the driver the only way they can transfer liability for any unpaid charges from driver to you is via the provisions of PoFA 2012.
              However in this situation that is not possible because the area , being airport land, is subject to statutory control and is not "relevant land" (to use the wording of the statute.

              The solicitors acting for MET will likely, after huffing and puffing, discontinue the claim. Sometimes they just don't turn up at court!, but if they do you should win.(but do be aware it is a bit of a lottery ... depends which side of the bed the judge gets out )

              Come back to this thread when you receive the claim form.

                    "Although scalar fields are Lorentz scalars, they may transform nontrivially under other symmetries, such as flavour or isospin. For example, the pion is invariant under the restricted Lorentz group, but is an isospin triplet (meaning it transforms like a three component vector under the SU(2) isospin symmetry). Furthermore, it picks up a negative phase under parity inversion, so it transforms nontrivially under the full Lorentz group; such particles are called pseudoscalar rather than scalar. Most mesons are pseudoscalar particles." (finally explained to a captivated Celestine by Professor Brian Cox on Wednesday 27th June 2012 )

                      No need to worry, but do respond to it!

                      Dear Sirs

                      I am in receipt of your Letter of Claim, ref xxxxxxxxx dated dd.mm.yyyy.

                      I write to advise that I do not admit the claim, and assert I owe your principals nothing.

                      I was not the driver at the time of the alleged event, and as the land was not relevant land as described in the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, liability for any unpaid charges cannot be transferred to me, the registered keeper.

                      I do not expect to hear from you further except to confirm you will not be proceeding with this claim.

                      Yours etc.

                      They probably won't take any notice of it, but will continue to pressure you in the hopes you will cave in!
