       issue, for one.
       You need to disagree with points they have made.

       What did you submit to POPLA?

       I submitted to POPLA a slightly edited version of what was
       stated to Parking Eye:
       I write as the registered keeper regarding PCN 708543/683695
       (Ilford Retail Park; alleged event 01/05/2025 at 17:11).
       The Notice to Keeper was issued well outside the relevant period
       (over two and a half months after the alleged incident) and does
       not purport to rely on Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms
       Act 2012. In the absence of PoFA reliance, there is no lawful
       route to keeper liability.
       The parking company's repeated requests that the keeper
       identifies the driver is therefore misconceived and unlawful.
       There is no legal obligation to provide driver details and no
       adverse inference can be drawn from a refusal. No admissions are
       made as to the identity of the driver and I had declined the
       request.
       Should ParkingEye assert otherwise, they must identify the
       precise legal basis on which they contend keeper liability
       arises without PoFA. They have thus far failed to do so.
       It therefore follows that this PCN must be cancelled, and any
       continued demands for payment or identifying the driver is
       unlawful.
       I trust this appeal will be alllowed and the parking company
       ordered to cancel the PCN.
       Yours faithfully

       Nice single point POPLA appeal. Having looked through their so
       called "evidence", it is very clear that there is unlikely to
       have been any human input into this decision to pursue the
       Keeper. That, or any human who has been involved with this is
       intellectually malnourished and utterly incompetent.
       You can copy and paste this into the webform response to the
       operators "evidence":
       --- Quote ---
       > Before considering any alleged breach or contravention, POPLA
       must first determine whether the keeper can be held liable.
       Since the operator has expressly disclaimed reliance on PoFA and
       the driver has not been identified, the answer is clearly no.
       Accordingly, the appeal must be upheld and the Parking Charge
       Notice cancelled.
       >
       > The operator has confirmed in their own evidence that this
       Parking Charge Notice was not issued under the Protection of
       Freedoms Act 2012. Therefore, there is no lawful basis for
       holding the registered keeper liable. I have not identified the
       driver, and there is no legal requirement to do so. As a result,
       liability cannot transfer to the keeper, and the appeal must be
       allowed.
       >
       > Furthermore, the operator’s evidence includes false claims
       about the contents of my appeal, referring to arguments
       regarding pre-estimation of loss and the Beavis case that I
       never raised. This demonstrates either negligence or deliberate
       misrepresentation. POPLA must disregard those statements as
       irrelevant and untrue.
       >
       > Additionally, I did not put the operator to strict proof of
       landowner authority, yet in their infinite wisdom (or obvious
       lack of it) they have included these redacted documents as part
       of their own evidence. In doing so, they have shot themselves
       squarely in the foot.
       >
       > The so-called “Supply Agreement” shows an “Effective Date”
       hidden by redaction, signed on 2 April 2019, and defining an
       “Initial period” of 24 months (the handwritten alteration of
       “36” to “24” makes that crystal clear). There is no legible
       clause or written evidence showing any extension or renewal. On
       its face, the agreement expired by April 2021.
       >
       > Since the alleged event took place on 1 May 2025—over four
       years later—this paperwork proves that ParkingEye had no
       continuing authority to operate or issue PCNs at this site. They
       have therefore provided the very evidence that confirms their
       lack of standing.
       >
       > POPLA cannot simply assume continuation of a lapsed contract,
       particularly when key dates are redacted and the signatory’s
       status is unknown. Without valid and contemporaneous landowner
       authority, ParkingEye had no legal capacity to issue or enforce
       this Parking Charge.
       >
       > Their own evidence completely undermines their position, and
       the appeal must be allowed.
