Hi Dave, Nothing from the fleecers as yet regarding the CPR, so no documents provided. However the court sent me the standard letter(dated 1st Sept) acknowledging my defence and a copy is being sent to the fleecers or their solicitors. The fleecers may contact you direct to attempt to resolve the dispute blah blah blah. So they have 28 days to inform the court if they want to proceed. Will keep you updated

ok thanks will do the bland

Agreed it did look long to me - so previous advise was to include 5 & 7 should I save these for WS? thanks 5. Furthermore to Claimant’s invoice/PCN was issued more than four years ago and it is unreasonable for the Claimant to delay litigation and claim over four year’s interest. 7. It is brought to the attention of the Claimant that the Defendant works (Amsterdam, NL) and resides (Voorburg, NL) and will look to claim all travel costs necessary to defend this claim from the claimant if the court finds in the defendants favour

Did you receive a letter of Claim With A reply Pack wanting I&E etc about 1mth before the claimform? they have been writing a bit lately after I paid another claim filed by the same named legal representative. Thinking back I am pretty sure if they sent a letter of claim, it must not have Income and Expenditure cos I would have remembered that. Here is what I have drafted in MCOL, I have 74 lines remaining according to the site, so any improvement is welcomed - I will like to submit it tomorrow 1st Sept. I'm not to sure about the paragraph denying bit The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. It is admitted the Defendant was the recorded keeper of Vehicle. 2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. Paragraph 6 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge. Furthermore to Claimant’s invoice/PCN was issued more than four years ago and it is unreasonable for the Claimant to delay litigation and claim over four year’s interest. 6. Notwithstanding the above on 15th of August 2023 I made a request pursuant to CPR 31.14 for the claimant to disclose its necessary evidence in support if its claim. To this date the claimant has failed to provide the requested evidence. The Claimant is further put to strict proof that it has sufficient proprietary interest in the land, or that it has the necessary authorisation from the landowner to issue parking charge notices, and to pursue payment by means of litigation. 7. It is brought to the attention of the Claimant that the Defendant works (Amsterdam, NL) and resides (Voorburg, NL) and will look to claim all travel costs necessary to defend this claim from the claimant if the court finds in the defendants favour. 8. Except where specifically stated or admitted, no element of this claim is admitted; the Claimant is put to the strictest proof of every element of its claim.

yeah I'm hoping they back down before then - tbh, but if not it's another stick to beat them with

Letter was dated the 18th of Aug, 3 days after I posted the CPR, not sure when it was received in my letter box as I was away some part of last week. But I think Wed/Thurs (23rd/24th) judging by camera footage of postman. I am reading other post so I can draft my defence

I decided to look up this post - I got a response to the CPR, they are making the request to their client and will provide in due course. The letter was dated the 18th Aug.

Got a response to the CPR from DCB legal "DCB Legal acknowledge your request for evidence; it has now been requested from our Client and it will be provided in due course. For clarity, a claim was issued against you on 04/08/2023 in amount of £324. Due to this your file cannot be placed on hold. Therefore continue to follow court directions. Alternatively, if payment is made of the outstanding balance of £324 then legal proceedings will cease. Payment options are overleaf"

CPR sent today, though I missed the last post collection of the day. Got my proof of posting. Now some rest before the defence

@brassnecked I will say it's a permanent one, I try and come back as often and work with my employer. It was one of those (jobs) you take as a temporary measure to pay your bills (after being made redundant) then weeks turn to months and years. I will send CPR as normal and will start preparing the defence after. Thanks for all the support so far

@FTMDave yes sure it can wait, let me know what's best. Yes my post is regularly check, if something looks official I usually ask my wife to open it and tell me if I need to take action. I see your point, but I guess even so as I still have assets registered to me in the UK they will still try it. I am still around, cos of the school holidays which gets a bit much around this time, but at term times I come home every 2 wks or so.

@dx100uk thank you for your response, I have now filled out the MCOL - AOS. With regards to CPR 31:14 I will send this to DCB legal Ltd tomorrow morning 1st class post - they appear to be the solicitors. Will keep you posted

ok thank you - will report back here as soon as I've done the steps. @lookinforinfo I hope so, times are so hard right now, made harder by things like these.

ok will go through it all by Friday - I really don't want to pay - that will be about £600+ to these parking companies in a matter of months, not to count congestion charge

Hello, This same company wrecked my credit score few months ago and I had to make payment because of a CCJ they placed on my credit file.

The offence apparently took place in 08/10/2018 and they want a claim of £324. I no longer have the car in question How do i fight this? please heeellllllppp Thanks
