How it works

How GetRighted Works

Three stages, real legal grounds, honest odds — from the UK's penalty-appeal specialists.

The UK parking appeal system

When you receive a private parking charge, you have up to three stages of appeal:

1

Stage 1: Appeal to the operator

The operator decides. They have a conflict of interest (they get paid if they reject you), but around 53% of challenged tickets are still cancelled at this stage.

2

Stage 2: Independent appeal

If Stage 1 fails, you escalate to POPLA (for BPA operators) or IAS (for IPC operators). POPLA is genuinely independent with a ~42% win rate. IAS is run by the operators' own trade association — win rate is ~6%.

3

Stage 3: County Court

Rare. Most operators drop cases before court. This is outside GetRighted's scope — we refer you to Citizens Advice or a solicitor if it gets here.

What we do

1

Identify your operator and appeal route

BPA, IPC, or council? This single fact determines your realistic odds.

2

Find your technical grounds

Parking appeals are won on structural conditions: signage defects, POFA non-compliance, grace periods, ANPR errors. Not “please be nice.”

3

Give you an honest verdict

Strong, Workable, Weak, or Pay-the-discount. If we think you should pay, we tell you — and we don't charge you for it.

4

Build your appeal

We build the case — specific legislation, code of practice sections, and case law relevant to your ground. Tribunal-grade, not a template — tailored to your operator, your site, your facts. You preview it free before committing.

5

Show you exactly how to file

Which URL, what subject line, what attachments. Step by step. You file it — you stay in control.

What we are NOT

Not a law firm

We build documents based on published rules. We don't represent you.

Not a guarantee

We give you honest odds, never promises.

Not a chatbot

It's a structured workflow, not a conversation.

Not a black box

You see the appeal before you pay. You file it yourself. You stay in control.

Members get 10 letters a month across any vertical — parking, traffic, deposits, council tax.
