Free guide: how to appeal a private PCN in the UK
Use this guide to choose the right appeal angle based on what you can prove. Keep it evidence-first, calm, and structured — the opposite of a “story”.
Choose a scenario that matches your evidence: signage, POFA / keeper liability, ANPR timing, grace periods, authority, paid-but-overstayed, etc.
Photos, receipts, screenshots, timestamps, correspondence — and keep it factual and organised. Don’t drown them in irrelevant detail.
Neutral tone. Short paragraphs. Numbered points. Don’t admit liability accidentally. Don’t over-explain. Keep copies of everything.
Quick structure you can follow
- Subject line: “Appeal — PCN ref [XXXX] — Vehicle [REG]”
- One-line position: “I dispute this charge. Please cancel or issue a POPLA code.”
- 3–6 numbered points that match your evidence
- Evidence list (photos, receipts, screenshots)
- Close with a clear request (cancel / POPLA code)
What NOT to say
- Don’t write a long emotional story.
- Don’t say “I parked” if you’re appealing as keeper and you don’t need to identify the driver.
- Don’t guess. Don’t add details you can’t prove.
- Don’t threaten. Keep it calm and professional.
- Don’t ignore deadlines. Screenshot your submission confirmation.
