Some recent testimonials from AppealNow.com clients

Dear Barrie

You may be pleased to learn that I have just been informed that Westminster City Council accept that I was ... not contravening the parking regulations. They have informed me that I will be receiving a full refund of my £115 fines. We have achieved this is in only 19 working days! I have no doubt whatsoever that it would not have happened without your unstinting encouragement, advice and support - thank you very much! [PC]

Barrie you are a star. I received a council letter today telling me that the parking ticket had been cancelled. I think that represents the quickest climb down since Tarzan saw Jane. Many thanks. [M]

We were in total dispair. Thanks to you we got all the fraudulently issued parking tickets cancelled. [ZA]
