Not legal advice. Follow the process on your notice. Templates only — not representation. Outcomes not guaranteed. Appealing may affect discounts. GOV.UK. Citizens Advice: 0808 223 1133.
Euro Car Parks (ECP) issues private parking charges. Use the operator → POPLA/IAS path, not the council tribunal path, unless the notice is actually from a local authority.
Step-by-step
- Confirm issuer (company vs council).
- Gather photos, payment proof, timeline, copy of the notice.
- Appeal to the operator within the timeframes on the notice / Code Clause 8.3.
- If rejected: BPA → POPLA; IPC → IAS.
Letter structure
Header details → challenge statement → timeline → numbered grounds (Code / POFA / GOV.UK cites) → evidence list → ask for cancellation and any POPLA code if rejected.
