Private parking ticket - signage confusing and not clear
DIR By: peugros

Hi all,
Thanks for your help beforehand.
I need some advice as I received a ticket from Eurocarparks
beginning of Nov. I challenged it based that signage was not
well illuminated and only on the left hand side with poor
vision. Please see the pictures- as right side of parking is
opened and leads to Morrisons main entrance, I thought it was
part of Morrisons too, so I parked there. My appeal was
rejected, now only way to appeal is through POPLA - any advice
pls?
Originally I went there at nighttime, so I returned to take
pictures at similar time.
Thanks for your advice

Hi, I'd love to show you in full my appeal, unfortunately I do
not have a copy as appeal for Eurocarparks is done fully online.
I attached pictures and mentioning the poor lighting at the time
(it was late evening) and the confusion due parking seems split
in 2, one part opened and leading to Morrisons entrance. I
attach links of pics I sent them and extra I did going to the
same area.
the ones I attached at appeal:

the ones extra:

I saw only the one
on the left next to entrance, so I thought parking Eurocarparks
was the left part only and right one for Morrisons - i was new
to area and there is Morrisons park further down.
Any advice should I apply to POPLA and if no success try to
contact landowner or viceversa?
Thanks for any advice!

Plan A is always to ask whoever has contracted ECP to operate at
the car park, to get them to tell ECP to cancel the PCN.
Plan B is to appeal to ECP.
Plan C is to appeal to POPLA if Plans A and B are unsuccessful.
Plan D is to wait until ECP issue a claim for debt issued
through DCB Legal via the CNBC.
Plan D will eventually end in a discontinuation if you follow
the advice given here and use the defence we would provide..

PLAN C done - appeal submitted a few days ago. Whilst waiting
for review I jumped to PLAN A. I've contacted the landowner (in
this case restaurant), explained the situation and as a goodwill
gesture he said he would contact the parking company... Now I've
checked and it shows "this ticket has already been paid or has
been closed" :D

Good that the landowner intervened.
In future it'd be wise to await advice before submitting a POPLA
appeal. We can't help you with an appeal when it's already been
submitted!

Thank you for the advice! I was really lost and it seemed unreal
I could sort this only with a call to landowner. I guess I can
withdraw the POPLA appeal with no problems? it appears still on
submission and on pending POPLA assessment..

No!
Don't withdraw it. If it's been cancelled, let the parking
operator tell POPLA that.
