The odds are better than you think

Each year, UK drivers receive over 30 million parking and motoring penalties. Millions challenge them - and according to MoneySavingExpert, over half of those who appeal succeed. At independent tribunal, success rates reach 50–64%. The problem isn't the odds - it's that most people don't know how to make their case.

Frequently asked questions

Is this legal advice?

No. GL Appeal generates draft appeal letters using AI. We are not a law firm and this is not legal advice. You should review every letter before sending and consider seeking independent legal advice for serious motoring offences that carry disqualification or criminal penalties.

What types of ticket can I appeal?

We cover 12 ticket types across three categories: Parking (council PCNs, private parking charges, airport parking), TfL & Tolls (congestion charge, ULEZ, Dartford Crossing, Clean Air Zones), and Motoring Offences (speeding, red light cameras, mobile phone use, no insurance, careless driving, S.172 failure to identify driver, and totting up / exceptional hardship).

How does the AI find grounds for my appeal?

Our system asks targeted questions about your ticket – when you received it, what happened, the signage, the circumstances. It then checks for procedural errors (like the 14-day NIP rule for motoring offences), timing issues, signage defects, and technical loopholes specific to your ticket type. The appeal letter cites real UK legislation and case law.

What are my chances of success?

POPLA data shows around 42% of private parking appeals result in the charge being cancelled – either by the operator conceding or through adjudication. For council PCNs and motoring offences, success rates vary by the strength of your grounds and evidence. A well-structured appeal with the right legal arguments significantly improves your chances.

How much does it cost?

New users get their first appeal free with code GOLITIGOFREE (applied automatically on signup). After that, each appeal letter costs £9.99. There is no subscription and no hidden fees. If your ticket is for £100, that's a 10:1 return if the appeal succeeds.

Where do I send the appeal once it's generated?

GL Appeal tells you exactly where to send it. For council PCNs, you challenge the issuing council. For private parking charges, you appeal to the operator first, then escalate to POPLA or IAS if rejected. For TfL penalties, you make representations to TfL or appeal to London Tribunals.

What if my appeal is rejected?

Most ticket types have a two-stage process. If your initial appeal is rejected, you can usually escalate to an independent tribunal or adjudicator. GL Appeal can generate a fresh letter for the next stage – each stage is a separate appeal at £9.99.

Can I use this for a motoring offence that might go to court?

GL Appeal can help you draft challenge letters and exceptional hardship statements. However, for offences that may result in disqualification, a criminal record, or imprisonment, we strongly recommend consulting a specialist motoring solicitor.
