Hello All.

 

I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year.

 

I just wanted to provide a quick update on my case. Their legal team has said they will defend their client and also they want to change to particulars of claim stating a IT error.

I have included all the letters i received recently in  PDF form.

 

What should be my next step now.

 

Thank you all!

An IT error!  More like being too bone idle to check what they'd written.

 

Unfortunately they have realised they had included the same ticket twice, and want the court to allow them to change their POC, and want you to agree to the change.

 

Obviously you need to tell them to Foxtrot Oscar, but I'm not sure how you would oppose their application to the court.  Hang on for the other regulars to look in, they have more experience than me with these "tricky" things.

 

BTW, did your partner park there three times?  

[chinoky]

Yes every time that car was caught in that spot, I was not the driver or in the car.

what is the status of the claim?

I checked the MCOL and there doesnt show any status. It seems to be stuck where it was before with no options to change. Please see attached PDF.

[FTMDave]

In their draft application to the court they state that their Letter of Claim listed the proper three invoices.  Is this true, or are they lying?

 

As for replying to them, hang fire for the moment, see what people who have dealt with this sort of thing before have to say, there may be a way to oppose their application or at least make them pay a hefty sum to the court for granting it.

what IS the current status last entry?

[chinoky]

on MCOL. The last entry was my defence. There is nothing else available.

[dx100uk]

I received a letter from the 7th saying their client is willing to conclude this matter and to contact them.

The only other letter I received is attached as PDF. If its not this one, I dont think i got it through the post yet.

 

[dx100uk]

[chinoky]

Todays post has come and gone and I never received any court papers

Chinoky, I see you have reported a post. 

 

Simply write your questions here, and the regulars will be on soon to help out.

[chinoky]

Hello. I finally have a mediation date with the courts. I have written some bullet points for the phone call. Are there anything I should be aware of when speaking to the judge? Thanks

[brassnecked]

Mediation is of little use, it will end with the PPC offering to knock 10 quid off the amount claimed possibly, you either owe or you don't, mediation confuses the issue

 

[chinoky]

Should I reject this mediation? What would be the next step after for the courts?

[FTMDave]

What happened regarding their application to have the Particulars of Claim amended?

 

As Brassnecked says, we don't normally suggest mediation.  There's nothing to mediate about.  You don't owe the money - end of.  Even worse, you are likely to let on to them how you intend to defend the case and play your cards too early.  However, if you want, post up your proposed bullet points and see what the regulars have to say.

I ignored their letters to change the PoC. I will try decline the mediation request and try get a proper court date.

[FTMDave]

When exactly is mediation fixed for?

[FTMDave]

Plus, can you look at MCOL and see if there is anything about them amending their POC?  I'm a bit bemused as to what has happened, it seems they were going to apply to the court but haven't done so.

[AndyOrch]

Amendments to Particulars of claim does not show on MCOL...and I doubt very much they would make application with fee to amend.

In the light of the amount claimed I am pretty sure they will take you to Court.

 

I notice that you haven't posted up the PCNs . It could help your case if we could see them.

 

Also one of the photographs showed that the parking places were for authorised cars only and a no entry sign. Was your car authorised or did the car come into the parking area from a different entrance.

 

In which case a photo of that entrance sign would be more than helpful since it may show different terms on it to the one you showed. Also are there any signs in the parking area itself  that differ from the entrance sign. 

 

Could you also take a photo of the payment machine and the T&Cs on it or near it please.

 

From the PCNs we can then see if they are pursuing for one reason or if each PCN has a different breach of their supposed rules.
