    Wonderful.

    And .......?
    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.

    Host it on tiny pic, Dropbox, imgur or the like (not Photobucket). Copy and paste the URL into your next post.

    I’d write back and invite them to have their client ZZPS issue court proceedings within 14 days or you will consider the matter closed.

    (Note - ZZPS can’t issue court proceedings as they have no locus in the alleged debt).

    Quelle surprise. They basically said nothing at all.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Loving their hatred for online forums, it's the biggest compliment we can receive.

    Heaven forbid you will get the advise you need to fight this and beat them... No, they'd much prefer you to remain scared and in the dark so they can intimidate you into paying up with BS threats about CCJs and ruined credit files.

    If you respond as advised above it may be worth telling them that your letter was no "template" (how could it be when it referred to detailed and specific facts about your case).

    Although you understand that when it comes to vague "template" correspondence there is no one better placed to recognise it than WH, what with their vast 'first hand' experience of such.

    Say your letter was actually written by a Lawyer - a specialist in civil litigation who is assisting you in this matter, and will continue to do so until it is concluded.

    Add that he is already compiling detailed evidence in order to support your claim for costs pursuant to CPR 27.14(2)(g) for unreasonable behaviour in the event of court proceedings.

    Can I really get away with saying this?
