    You need to acknowledge the claim saying that you will defend it full , and ask for a further 28 days to formulate your defence. Important not to worry though as the guys on pepipoo are good with this.

    Have you acknowledged service for this? You need to and ask that it be transferred to your local county court.....
    I've picked this one up from Pepipoo now, and am sorting the defence.

    The OP can't ask for it to be transferred to his local court until he has submitted a defence, and Northampton send back a Directions Questionnaire, that's how the system works.

    I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.

    You don't get a further 28 days, you get 14 + the original 14 = 28 in total.

    thank you so so much everyone, it's nice that there's some good people left in the world.
  • I got a "PCN" from these Parkingeye scum-buckets yesterday. I intend to ignore it - if they do take it further I'm going to ask them to prove who was driving - it wasn't me. I believe that I'm under no legal obligation to furnish them with the name of the driver although the blurb on the back of the notice implies that I should tell them who was driving, If I don't or they can't find who was they can (so they say) pursue me. Let em try.

    I am going to write to complain to the DVLA that they have broken Data Protection regulations by giving my name and address. MY understanding is that they can give out details under certain circumstances but that helping a private company seek settlement of invoices stretches credibility a bit. Am I right?

    Have they issued a court claim already?

    If so, you need to start your own thread, rather than pitch-up on someone else's and confuse things.

    And if not, then yes - you need to start your own thread too because you have a totally different situation to deal with!

    Can you please not hijack other people's threads, this one has an active small claim in it and is different to your situation. Please create your own unique thread below. Many thanks

    I wonder if McDonalds are aware that their contractor is bringing legal action against it's customers which could back-fire and make McDonalds appear negatively in the media.

    After-all, any defeats won't be reported as "Parking Eye fails to sue customer for overstaying car-park", instead "McDonalds fails to sue customer for overstaying in car-park with broken down car"
