I have heard from McDonald's Heathrow. Below is their response "I am writing further to your contact regarding our Heathrow restaurant. I have noted your comments and welcome the opportunity to confirm the policy on this matter. Putting in place enforcements within our car parks is only done after careful consideration and absolutely as a last resort. Primarily, we use parking measures to ensure there are spaces available for our customers’ vehicles, as well as to deter unwarranted or unreasonably prolonged usage of the parking. This is especially necessary at our restaurants which are in close proximity to airports such as Heathrow where we have seen our parking bays used by non-customers in the past. I can confirm these restrictions are managed by an independent company who are responsible for monitoring the car park and taking details of registration numbers. The regulations and signs at the restaurant clearly state the policy and the relevant charges. I've just spoken with the manager at the restaurant and they have agreed that on this occasion they will contact the parking company and have the ticket cancelled." Great result!! Thanks FTMDave for the suggestion that I communicate with McDonald's. Huge appreciation to everyone on this page who assisted. I am grateful

Thank you all, I have sent the email & now , wait. I'll update you as things proceed Thanks

Morning , I have documentation for my current medical situation. Below is my hastily drafted letter to the McDonald's CEO. Is it OK? "I was issued with a MET parking ticket on 5/3/23, at Mcdonald's Drive thru Heathrow, Hayes, UB3 5AR. I was experiencing a low blood sugar event , as I am a Type 2 Diabetic. As it is a criminal offence to drive in the stated medical condition, I therefore stopped at the earliest convenient location where I could also purchase some juice to assist in lowering my blood sugar level, which was the McDonald's, Heathrow. I purchased a breakfast including an orange juice . I waited until it was safe for me to drive. I explained this to MET who rejected my appeal. Under the guidelines of the government Code of Practice, I did not overstay at the stated location. Further, given my diabetic medical emergency, it was contrary to the Equalities Act, for MET to reject my appeal and my medical emergency, will have rendered any contract as automatically frustrated and impossible to be formed. Unfortunately since MET sent their appeal rejection letter, I have suffered a further medical emergency, which has resulted in my hospitalisation. This has meant that I have not been able to appeal to POPLA within the specified time period. The on going saga of this matter, is not conducive or assisting, my current urgent medical situation. Indeed, the matter is causing me unnecessary stress, which is compounding, my medical condition. Given my diabetic emergency, taking account of the Equalities Act, the fact that I did not overstay, under the guidelines of the government Code of Practice and that any contract was frustrated and therefore not formed, I kindly ask McDonald's, to kindly intercede in this matter. I kindly await your imminent response, in hopeful anticipation. Yours sincerely,"

Basically yes

I appealed a MET Parking Services ticket received for staying at a Mcdonalds beyond 70 mins. below is MET's rejection of appeal letter 'Thank you for your correspondence received in regards to the above parking charge. The terms and conditions of parking are clearly stated on the signs prominently displayed around this site. These include that parking is for customers whilst on the premises only and that there is a maximum permitted stay in this area of 60 minutes. Your vehicle remained on site for longer than the maximum permitted stay therefore we believe the charge was issued correctly and we are upholding it. We note your comments, however, the time limit was still applicable. We are confident there are sufficient signs at this location bringing the terms and conditions of parking to the attention of motorists and it remains the driver's responsibility to check the signs where they park and comply with the terms and conditions. This decision, which has been based on the facts of the case and takes into account our consideration of any mitigating circumstances, is our final decision. You have reached the end of our internal appeals procedure and you now have a number of options: 1. Pay or, if you were not the driver of the vehicle at the time of the incident, request the driver to pay the parking charge notice at the price of £100 within 28 days of today's date. Please note that if payment is not received by this date further costs will accrue if the case is passed to our debt resolution agents for collection or if we need to proceed with court action to collect the money due to us. Payment may be made online at www.paymetparking.com or by phone on 020 3781 7471. 2. Make an appeal to POPLA, the Independent Appeals Service, within 28 days of the date of this letter by going to the online appeals system at: www.popla.co.uk using verification code: xxxxxx Please note that POPLA will consider the evidence of both parties and make their decision based upon the facts and application of the relevant law. Please note that if you opt to appeal to POPLA, and should POPLA's decision NOT go in your favour, you will be required to pay the full amount of £100.00. Please note if the contravention occurred in Scotland only the driver may appeal to POPLA. By law we are also required to inform you that Ombudsman Services (www.ombudsman-services.org) provides an alternative dispute resolution service that would be competent to deal with your appeal. However, we have not chosen to participate in their alternative dispute resolution service. As such should you wish to appeal then you must do so to POPLA as explained above. 3. If you choose to do nothing, we will seek to recover the monies owed to us via our debt recovery procedures and may proceed with court action." In my appeal, I explained that i did not see any signage & in any event, I have diabetes, o sugar was very low, so i stopped at Mcdonalds to buy some orange and waited for my blood sugars to settle. I now want to appeal to POPLA. Are there any legitimate grounds upon which I may have a hope of succeeding on appeal to POPLA? Thanks

The council did not advise me to submit a TEC, they have maintained that the bailiff efforts to extract at least £513 from me, will continue. the council has written 2 letters refusing to change their decision. Both letters which were attached to an email , are addressed to my previous place of residence , which must be where they sent the NTO and other correspondence. Someone has advised me to submit a TEC

Sorry dx100uk, did you want me to post the link to the TEC form?

Hi Bootworm & apologies for delay. Council have refused to rescind the PCN or stop the bailiffs, so I've been advised to submit a TEC. I've never submitted a TEC, so will ask here if anyone knows how to submit a TEC. Wishing you the best in your battle with Croydon Council. I'll update here as my war with the council progresses

No change of address but many royal mail staff in my area at least, were off work during late 2020 & early 2021 & as sure our mail in my area was severely disrupted

Thanks I don't recall completing the TE7 for the appeal on the x2 PCNs, which I actually did receive. In that instance I was appealing to the London Tribunals, the council's rejection of my appeal to the council . I've attached 2 sections of the TE7 . With this bailiff situation, do I select the 'outside of the given time' or 'for more time' option, on the TE7 Is my reason for making the TE7 application , what I should be saying or am I missing anything? Thanks I've spoken to the council & they have advised me to send them an email & copy Newlyn I can't find Newlyn's email address on the letter I have attached my draft letter to the council. Should I make any changes? Thanks Have converted docx to pdf for you and removed the docx.BN TE7+letter to Council.pdf
