I shopped at the store, had a receipt and overstayed unknowingly.<br /><br />Aldi didn't seem comfortable or aware Wright Hassall had in effect replaced POPLA. Aldi asked me to cancel my appeal and they would cancel the PCN subject to the appeal not having taken place.<br /><br />I had a phone call from Aldi yesterday confirming they had told Parking Eye to cancel my PCN.

I got a snotty reply saying it was all above board so I've reported Wright Hassall to the Solicitors Regulation Authority as they have the clearest conflict of interest. If others have pending appeals and are affected by this, please also complain to BPA (aos@britishparking.co.uk) and the SRA (report@sra.org.uk). It's far more likely these bodies will act if they receive numerous complaints.

They are solicitors who act for parking companies - they are not independent at all!! The whole process is a sham. Is it still the case that POPLA decisions are unenforceable?
