VCS/DCBL CCJ (ignored Claimform) for 5X windscreen privacy notices - paid for residential parking - now +£600 CCJ - that's a pub over the road!! - Xl Chatham Waters, Gillingham, Me4 4ft

[Meinmast]

Hi,

 

No response from VCS after that email. what would be suggestion for next step? should I pay or go for set aside appeal?

[FTMDave]

I wrote upthread that you had a very good chance of a set aside - but that's before we discovered you had actually read the claim form and had even told the other side that you had.

 

It's written as clear as clear can be on the claim form that you have 14 days to do something or else you will lose by default.

 

Sadly i don't think you have a hope in hell of set aside which is a crying shame as VCS's case was total rubbish.

 

Your two options, if you can really call them that, are (a) to pay the £1035 or (b) to defy the court and not pay.  At best that will mean a knackered credit file for six years.  Plus VCS are likely to enforce, and as the amount is over £600 they can employ high court bailiffs. 

 

 

[Meinmast]

Ok Thank you. Yes I know I messed up things but lesson learnt. I will pay then to avoid six year credit file hitch.

If you tangle with PPCs again, do come back for advice early on in the process.

I thought this is the end of story but not yet  .

 

today to my surprise, all of sudden the dcbl bailiffs & high court enforcement agent showed up and entered the home with a £1921 charge to pay as I was issue enforcement letter and I didn't pay it.

 

I didn't received any letter from them

 

I regularly check my mail and received letters from my energy supplier and bank but no other letter after CCJ.

 

Can you please suggest me what to do as £1023 was somehow ok but £1921 is insane especially I didn't received any letter after CCJ.

 

I doubt if they sent any letter to me?

 

If I have to pay in 1 month how could they do this. are they exploiting my lack of knowledge. I'm very stressed now.

 

what are my options now as I can't digest it now and in extreme depression.

 

How I can verify if they sent me enforcement letter and did royal mail delivered it to my address?

 

It took me hours to compose myself and write here 

[dx100uk]

it was for you to contact the claimant and pay it.

 

nothing you can do about the fees sadly,

[Meinmast]

But I didn't received any enforcement letter as you can see in my previous comments that I was willing to pay.

 

if I would have received any such letter I would pay immediately to avoid further fees.

 

I only received a letter from DCBL on 17 Nov then CCJ issued on 9 Jan  according to that I have time to pay till 8th Feb i.e within one month window.

 

I'm not sure if they have sent me enforcement letter but just wanted to empty my pockets.

 

 

[dx100uk]

sorry.

you should have received a notice of enforcement to the defendants address from the claimform

 

 

[Meinmast]

I'm 200% sure that no letter came to defendants (mine) address. Can I ask them to share proof of letter or can verify it from royal mail. 

[dx100uk]

have you paid them?

 

dx

 

[Meinmast]

Yes, had to pay as he has clamped my vehicle under notice after entry or taking control of goods. otherwise there were 500 more to add upon next visit making it 2450GBP

[dx100uk]

typical for hceo's sadly.

 

they need to prove a notice of enforcement was sent to where they entered, giving 7 days at a fee of £75 before they can escalate further.

 

 

[Meinmast]

No notice received at all that's I'm sure otherwise I'm not that mad if willing to pay 1025 and instead choose to pay 1921  

[FTMDave]

Is this right everyone?

 

Judgement against the OP was on 9 January.

 

3 February bailiffs already turn up!

[dx100uk]

i believe so.

 

i think going by all the evri court claims here its usual to give 14 days payment grace, but i don't think they have too await the one cal month (i think) like you are thinking.

 

pretty sure though going by say Bailiff PCN threads etc, that they must send a notice of enforcement to the correct address giving 7 days to pay before they raid a premises and if the NOA is faulty/addressed they cant enforce till they have.

[Meinmast]

Yes thats true 9 Jan CCJ and today bailiffs raided but. I even asked him to show me proof as I didn't received any such notice but he said they send it and it maybe Rayal mail to whom I check. whereas I was receiving my other mails. 

shouldn't it be a singed postage to make sure that enforcement letter delivered. 

 

[dx100uk]

no they dont have to use signed for.

 

you could get these fees removed if you can prove they did not send one.

Which address to send the notice of enforcement and then attend to enforce

WWW.THESHERIFFSOFFICE.COM

---

Under the Taking Control of Goods Regulations 2013, which came into effect April 2014, a notice of enforcement must be sent to the enforcement address

 

[Meinmast]

Response for Evidence request from DCBL:

"We write further to your request for evidence.

In due course, the Court will order that both parties file and serve all evidence they intend to rely on. We confirm you will therefore receive all relevant evidence in advance of the hearing.

Please find attached all evidence we currently have on file."

 

They sent me Vehicle pictures, PCN, Notices (on old address, My V5c updated in August 22). But I think its useless now as I had already paid to bailiff.

 

I need guidance on below please

 

1- How to get removed CCJ

2- How to chase that I didn't get any enforcement letter at my address and can I get that 685£ removed?
