Hi, can someone please help us?!
We received the attached letter today, which is the first and only letter received. It has a penalty charge + 50% increase so is now £90 ! We don’t live locally so cannot return to check signage etc. This threw me as it’s from Gloucestershire County Council, via APCOA with an Uxbridge address - all this is why I’m here. All these things don’t seem to add up. Surely there’s something we can do to appeal against this? |

I put it all onto a Word document then copied & pasted onto their form, so have a copy saved.
Thanks. |

Hi all,
It’s gone 10 working days, tomorrow will be 15 I believe, and I’ve heard nothing. Is no news good news? Should I chase someone up? Thanks again. |

Wait it out is probably best - they've got 50+ days under law to respond if this is a formal challenge, so unfortunately it's not though yet IIRC |

Is it possible to check?
I’ve tried with the login details which I used for the above, logging in there again just takes you to the same page, ie to send details again. |

Hi,
I’ve received a response - the 3 pages below. I must admit it’s not what I was expecting! |

I sent a letter which I basically copied & pasted from Mad Mick V on 20.01.18 at 10:55hrs (page 3) with the insert from Neil B on 22.01.18 at 23:22hrs (page 4).
I will find the document as a whole and post it.... 2 secs.. |

That IMO nicely sets up an appeal

Right ok - So what’s the advice for the next step?
Are others in agreement with PASTMYBEST? I notice page 3 has details of how to appeal through the Traffic Penalty Tribunal. |

I must admit it’s not what I was expecting! What were you expecting? -- They've ignored my bit, sweeping it aside with a generic 'notices are compliant'. That's no response at all. Yes I agree with PMB -- and Mick. Note this again comes from APCOA ? -------------------- |

@Water
Your decision----- they have re-offered the discount. My view is to continue but it's neither my money or time. I still believe you have a strong case which is made stronger by them not responding to the issues raised. They have a duty to act fairly, whatever the legislation, and they have demonstrably failed in that regard by sending a boiler plate rejection. Mick |

Thanks for your replies once again.
I was half expecting a ‘ok we’ve thrown it away’ type response - what do I know! I’ve spoke to my husband and we have decided to carry on - there has been a lot of time and effort gone into giving me advice for this & it’ll be a shame to give up now! And anyway, I’m not one to give up! The thing is I’m running to you guys for help, if you’re happy to keep providing me with the right things to say?! I’ll have a look in the morning at the appeal website to see what information I need and screenshot pages where necessary? Thanks again |

@Water
That's what I wanted to hear! Subject to the views of others, we should agree on the bullet points and draft something for the adjudicators. Mick |
