Vcs Ltd and BW Legal - stolen number plate 2010

[ericsbrother]

write to BW legal and tell them in no uncertain terms that if their client is well aware of the matter of the stolen plates and if they continue to harass you appropriate action will be taken to address this as both a criminal act and civil tort.

 

The reality is that VCS found a bundle of old dodgy claims and are trying their luck with them via BW on a "no win no fee" basis so BW wont be spending money on this once you have shown them you arent going to fall for this latest ploy.

law changed in Oct 2012 so before that no keeper liability anyway, plates stolen or not.

 

 

They are hoping you are just stupid enough to fall for their attempts at getting money for nothing

[ericsbrother]

ignore,

 

they know that you are in the right and arent going to pay so if they wantr to waste their clients money then let them.

 

Obviously this will require more writing further down the line but as they havent learnt their lesson yet let them carry on as they wish andget clobbered for being unreasonable.

certainly not a phone call, if you want to vent your spleen at them make sure it is in writing and you have a copy. Email will do as long as you cc yourself or someone else in on it. they cant claim that it was killed by their spam filter, tough luck, that is like ripping up your post and then claiming you didnt get it as it is within the organisation's control.

So, if you want to contact them tell them that "as a victim of crime you dont expect to be harassed by some tin pot rentathreat and they should tell their client to stick the claim where the sun dont shine and seek out the real debtor as the law is on your side. They may need some help with their reading and writing but as a solicitor you should be able to do that for them".

[ericsbrother]

yes, plenty

but all of the cases that VCS have taken to court that have been defended they have lost.

 

They have also dropped buckets full once a defence has been put in

 

so when you file your skeleton defence (if they are dumb enough to sue)

keep an eye on the clock as they usually just let them matter time out without officially dropping it.

 

When they are a day late paying the allocation fee contact the court and ask for the claim to be thrown out (best)or stayed.
