Alleged breach 28 June. Issue 7 July. Not had chance to photo
signage but I think it's quite well marked. Thanks.

Can we assume that the notice does show a vehicle entering and
exiting? All I can see is thin air?

I need to get appeal in today so any help appreciated. Do you
have any templates?

We don’t have templates for “I don’t want to pay” appeals.
From what you’ve said so far, the driver parked in a car park
with clear signs limiting the parking period to 30 minutes, and
entered into a contract according to the terms on the signs. The
driver then parked for significantly longer than the free
period, significantly more than 10 minutes longer as defined in
the free “grace period” on top of the base period.
You’ve not given any other reasons for why the driver parked for
longer than allowed.
Bottom line is that they’re entitled to pursue the driver for
breach of contract, and use PoFA 2012 to transfer liability to
the registered keeper. Horizon seem to be reasonably compliant
with its requirements, unlike others.
You rightly approached Tesco but they were unhelpful.
Unless you have a defence you can construct to a likely county
court claim, I’m not sure what else we can offer. You can tell
Tesco that you won’t be shopping there again, of course.
Most appeals get rejected "after careful consideration" anyway,
so you can throw in a generic "not compliant with PoFA 2012"
appeal if you want, but it'll be rejected and you'll go down the
well-trodden path to a court claim.

The NtK is not compliant with POFA Schedule 4 Paragraph 9(2)(b).
