    Well done ... excellent result (you are the second today as MA61 won their case earlier this morning) ... very pleased for you. :)

    Go and enjoy the rest of your day now!! :)

    Can you breakdown the costs awarded for us? Are you saying you got a full days pay £95 * 8 hours PLUS 5 hours of preparation at £19/hour? If so the last bit is very unusual I think ...

    Great result. Feel free to stick around and help others on here and/or spread the word to all your friends and family about this scam and how they can help themselves here on MSE.
  • Fantastic news. Can I draw this to Parking Prankster's attention for blogging?
    I was hoping you'd get Bennett.
    Pretty poor that India "didn't know" any of the answers - she works directly for Millennium and her job is to manage their litigation, so she most certainly should know and has direct access to all of this information!

    Well done JackBasta:beer:

    So, hereon in, Ms. Beavan will be known as
    "Ms Don't know"

    What a joke, what a waste of time

    Hey you won and got £197.34:beer:

    Don't forget that if they don't pay, send in the bailiffs and the
    cost of that will be added when the bailiffs call

    Thanks everyone!

    safarmuk - Here is the costs breakdown I used - she allowed everything except the £15 stationary - I've taken out my salary details, however it works out above the max limit :)

    Ordinary Costs


    Loss of earnings/leave, incurred through attendance at Court 31/05/2017

    £xxxx salary = £xxxx take home salary / 260 working days – £xxxx per day
    Maximum allowable claim = £95.00

    Return mileage from home address to Court (e.g. 7.7 miles x £0.45) £3.47


    Sub-total £98.47 ======


    Further costs for Claimant’s unreasonable behaviour, pursuant to Civil Procedure Rule 27.14(2)(g)

    Research, preparation and drafting of documents (5 hours at Litigant in Person rate of £19 per hour) £95.00

    Stationery, printing, photocopying and postage: £15.00

    Sub-total £110.00 ======

    Total 208.47

    Yes Loc - draw it to Parking pranksters attention. If anyone needs any info about the case, I'm contactable via email or phone - if I can give anything back to this forum I will!

    How am I supposed to get paid? Will they send a cheque?

    Does Ms Beavan have any legal qualifications?

    Also I take it that Millennium like Devere never play away from their local court area?

    Just realised - it was £193.47, not 197.34!!!

    So I got awarded £197.34 in total.

    Pretty buzzing with that to be honest...
    So you should be you earned every penny. This is a great result, very well done... And well done to LoC and the others for some top notch advice on this thread.

    Remember to apply for a warrant of control of they don't pay.
