Hmmm, well this is quite interesting. Everything I have seen here is that you get a LBC and then an MCOL soon afterwards, a reply from Glads is not usual especially when they use Debt Collection terminology like "if this should go to court" so I am quite surprised.
As I said - and like Unkomaas says above - I think you can either try to rebut again, try to force the issue (as above demand they start proceedings) or you can just wait for the MCOL if it ever arrives.
If you want to make sure, you can redact the personal information on the original LBC and the subsequent reply to your rebuttal, host them somewhere and then post a link here and people can double check for you.
But basically, Glads have issued a LBC ... now they have to either go through with it or you are back where you were, waiting for the 6 year timeout ...0 -
Thanks for the responses.
Here is the LBC: https://1drv.ms/i/s!Ao45qLpxXG3_gdxyiLzXxjMZKV2caA
Here is the subsequent letter: https://1drv.ms/i/s!Ao45qLpxXG3_gdxxEAjMpgwQypMdLQ0 -
Over on PePiPoo, regular contributor 'Gan' often comments on Gladstones 'LBCs' to the effect that should their reference number on the 'LBC' commence '3*********', then that is a DRP letter using a pimped out G's letterhead.
Gan is highly respected and I have no reason to doubt his assertion, but can't guarantee it.
Please check the reference number on yours.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

I agree, Gan is right about those codes.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

The reference number begins with 1000...0

OK so it's only DE and they have not used POFA compliant NTKs for something like a year or more. With a non-POFA NTK they cannot hold a keeper liable.
What was the date of parking event (sorry no time to look back)?
Quite possibly you will get a claim but we win 99% of the time; in our experience, Gladstones make a mess of their robo-claims...PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Date of event was 23/11/2016. Thank you, Coupon-mad.0

OK so I am pretty sure they haven't used a POFA compliant NTK in 2016/17, so the keeper cannot be pursued (won't stop them trying, and hoping you might name the driver).
Do as Umkomaas already advised last week.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Responded to Gallstones last week, today I've received the court claim. Will acknowledge as per the guidelines on here then look at creating a draft to post on here for advice.0

Great, nothing to lose as long as you defend, because the worst case scenario if you lost at a hearing is being told to pay pretty much the same as demanded already. No CCJ, no sitting on the norty step! And if you win, you can claim your costs.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
