It might be worth popping back there and reading the Ts & Cs off the signage (parking somewhere else to do so of course).

They usually start with something like; "In parking here you agree to the following conditions....". As you were never actually parked, the whole lot falls at that point as the contract was never entered into.

If the "offence" is 1st October onwards you have to say.

Before them keep quiet and ignore everything sent/threats, court, credit report affected.

Tickets before this can be ignored shouldf one wish to do so.

The keeper does not have to name the driver but absent another name he's liable for the 'contractual' charge as stated on CP signage.

No doubt there will be test cases where a driver is named but is abroad or is Mr D Duck or somesuch.

The appeals system's website is now up and running at http://popla.org.uk/ . Seems to have close relationship with the London Parking and Traffic Appeals service. Michael Greenslade who also sits as an adjudicator with PATAS will lead the new service.
