PCN (NW) LTD taking me to court

Scouse_Magic

Here's a good one for the OP
C,mon lads & lasses put your money where your mouth is.....Like I have, it's not hard !!!!!!


JUDGE "The Claimant notwithstanding being advised by the Court that the application to adjourn was not being granted, makes no appearance or indeed any communication with the Court whatsoever. My reaction to that is that any firm of solicitors, and it may well be that Mr Sobell is the only solicitor employed by that firm, but notwithstanding that, any solicitor in practice engaged in litigation who simply fails to attend Court, does not take notice of a message that was left on his firm’s answering machine, even if he is hospitalised, as per the 15th March
application avers, must have some administrative staff to ensure that whilst he is personally unable to work, that the work is going to be covered. The world does not stop simply because a solicitor goes into hospital.

And I am not impressed by the absence of any response to the telephone message that was left and the fact that he even thought it was appropriate to apply for an adjournment in the first place when it would have been easy to engage either another solicitor by way of an agency agreement or simply to instruct counsel to attend on behalf of the client.

So I am dealing with this counterclaim in the absence of anything from the Claimant and also, as Miss Fever has pointed out, in the absence of any documents put forward in defence of the counterclaim.
The way in which the claim was being pursued is quite frankly a mess.


The second complaint that Miss Fever makes is that in the letter before the claim and this is from Graham White Solicitors, the letter dated the 23RD October 2012, it says this:



“Registered keeper details were obtained from the DVLA and my
client wrote to the registered keeper requesting either payment or
details as to who was driving the car at the time of the
unauthorised parking events. During various recorded
communications between the registered keeper, you, and my client
you have admitted to being the driver at the time of these events.
Both my client and my firm have written to you on several
occasions to request payment of the above debt and to date you
have not paid despite offering to pay.”



Well, those two assertions are clearly both wrong. And it is a matter of concern that a solicitor would write to a Defendant setting out not one but two grossly inaccurate assertions.


Needless to say Judgement awarded in favour for £235.00 and £180.00 costs awarded. And Roxburghe and GW were nowhere to be seen :rotfl:

I think this sums things up nicely:

Narcissus or Narkissos (Greek: Νάρκισσος), possibly derived from ναρκη (narke) meaning "sleep, numbness," in Greek mythology was a hunter from the territory of Thespiae in Boeotia who was renowned for his beauty. He was the son of a river god named Cephissus and a nymph named Liriope.[1] He was exceptionally proud, in what he did to those who loved him. Nemesis saw this and attracted Narcissus to a pool where he saw his own reflection in the water and fell in love with it, not realizing it was merely an image. Unable to leave the beauty of his reflection, Narcissus died.[2] Narcissus is the origin of the term narcissism, a fixation with oneself.

Im sure the OP will read these threads and the useless information from kirkbyinfurnesslad and decide for herself who is in the best position to advise her..And weigh that information up to an informed choice

Letters have now been sent to PB solicitors and complaint email sent to Steve Clarke, however the email address for the DVLA from lazydaisy is reecting the emails, any other contacts in the DVLA anyone?

Coupon-mad

There is no d in Elizabeth Symons, if that helps.

What what a thick !!!! I am, I only thought I had one page of responses from the thread and took advice, particularly from Lazy Daisy as I liked what she said so I acted on that. Then I realised there are 5 pages of the stuff and I panicked as I had already sent off letters.
Oh well.... think I may need to read the rest of the threads on here with a bit more concentration than work allows as not sure what is advice to me and what is not....

Either way thank you all for making the effort to help, its greatly appreciated.

There's one page of proper advice, then 4 pages of bickering and yah-boo-sucks.

Update:

Received an email from Elizabeth Symons from the DVLA saying thank you for copying her into the email. As my complaint is regarding POFA and the BPA's code of practise she will await their reply before deciding whether DVLA need to further investigate!

Fingers crossed........

"To anyone receiving these letters please make a formal complaint to the OFFICE OF FAIR TRADING as Roxburghe's credit licence is still pending following investigations.

Also cited on the register is that Roxburghe also trade as PCN PARKING SERVICES. They therefore are committing acts of gross misrepresentation and fraud by issuing parking charges and then debt collection letters adding additional charges. Everyone should complain to get these scammers out of business."
