County Court Claim Form Received

Swanseaparker

Hi all,

Just a quick update on this thread. I emailed my defence last week and the court have filed this. Received a letter today from BW Legal with a notice of discontinuation attached. Called the court to confirm and they said they haven't received/processed it yet but are in arrears (thanks to these idiots). Will call later in the week to definitely confirm, I'm assuming it's legitimate because otherwise it's extra ammo in my case...however you never know with these cowboys.

Wanted to say a massive thank you for your help on this. I certainly wouldn't have thought to write to Admiral threatening to involve and Excel telling them they're after the wrong party.

To answer a few questions I realised I missed earlier:
- I'm no longer an employee (left in 2014)
- At the time I worked there, we had no union reps and as other posters have suggested, the Facilities team encouraged people to pay the PCNs and would not get involved in any disputes
- As for it being family run, is this just a term used for the fact it still being run by the founders? To confirm, the ex-CEO Henry Engelhardt stepped down last year and the COO David Stevens replaced him. Both are/were based in the Cardiff offices

I'll keep you posted on the progress but I think there's light at the end of the tunnel!

It was me that said about them being family run, that's what I was told by father of the young lady I helped (also ex-employee). Since writing those letters and having success two more of you on the forum have used them and had success. You'll probably get a letter from Admiral now saying they've paid off Excel on your behalf but don't accept liability blahblah.


Admiral shouldn't be paying off Excel, they should be telling Excel in no uncertain terms to back off - but the trouble is Excel has them by the balls because it leases the car park from the council (I am assuming it's council owned land) and is then renting it on to Admiral, and technically they could end the agreement with Admiral and rent the carpark to another business - so Admiral obviously don't want to lose the carpark. But they really should be having a conversation with Excel about putting into place a system to stop the targeting of permit holders.

Sorry for the delayed response, took a while to come through but yes, settled as you suggested!

Thanks again for all your help, you've saved me a lot of time, stress and potentially money.
