POPLA Decisions

It will be the mediator phoning you. Your number won’t be given to the other side. You won’t have a direct conversation with DCB Legal.DjangoUnchained said:
Just wondering myself have never given either of our phone numbers at any stage, I'm guessing that until the pointless mediation stage we won't have to and then we can just use a disposable sim/ number?Coupon-mad said:
Euro Car Parks, so no worries as long as they use DCB Legal for the pointless court claim!Umkomaas said:Without the name of the PPC, the POPLA decision is somewhat without context. Dependant on which PPC, further advice, if needed, might vary.

The OP knows this but for new readers here, you do not pay when you lose at POPLA.
It goes like this with ECP:
Time-waster letters & phone calls incoming from DCB Ltd.
Letter of Claim from DCB Legal.
Usual generic Claim Form, DCB Legal.
Easy template Defence deployed.
Weeks or months delay.
Get on with life.
Usual form-filling to choose your court.
Mediation (joke) phone call.
Weeks or months delay.
Get on with life.
Hearing date in about a year from now.
Discontinued before the hearing.
Scam over. No risk, no CCJ.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 provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

"The driver should have checked their bank statement to ensure the payment had been taken correctly before leaving the car park,"
If that's the case should a paragraph be included in their signage to say this?2 -
