  Given the notice type and the date on the notice, returns the discount deadline, the challenge/representations deadline, when escalation can start, and (if you pass a rejection date) the tribunal or POPLA/IAS deadline. Statutory defaults; the notice is authoritative.

  Parameters:

• lookup_appeal_status read-only

  Public status for a customer reference such as PCN-4471A2B9.

  Parameters:

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• check_notice

  Upload a photo or PDF of a UK parking ticket, council PCN, private parking charge, bus lane, ULEZ or Clean Air Zone notice. AppealGo reads it, identifies the issuer and contravention, finds the grounds to challenge it and drafts the appeal. Checking is free (fair-use cap per key per day); filing costs £7.99 or is covered by a plan, up to its appeal allowance. Provide image_url OR image_base64. Takes 20–90 seconds. Never invent notice details: report exactly what this tool returns.

  Parameters:

  • force — boolean — Scan even if this account already appealed the same notice
  • file_name — string
  • image_url — string — Public https URL of the photo/PDF
  • content_type — string — image/jpeg, image/png, image/heic or application/pdf (for image_base64)
  • image_base64 — string — Base64 of the photo/PDF (data: URLs accepted)

  Hints: read-only no · destructive no · idempotent no · open-world yes

• list_my_notices read-only

  Every notice this AppealGo account has scanned, with status and links.

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• get_notice read-only

  Full detail for a notice id returned by check_notice or list_my_notices.

  Parameters:

  • id (required) — string

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• file_appeal destructive

  Files the drafted appeal for a notice in the account holder's own name. This sends a real appeal to a real council or parking operator and cannot be undone, so confirm with the user first. If the notice is unpaid and not covered by a plan, returns a Stripe checkout_url (£7.99 standard); once paid, AppealGo files it automatically. Name and postal address are required (saved on the profile, or pass them here). Always show the user the checkout_url rather than claiming the appeal was filed.

  Parameters:

  • id (required) — string
  • name — string — Full name the appeal is filed under
  • address — string — Full postal address including postcode

  Hints: read-only no · destructive yes · idempotent no · open-world yes
