    I'm guessing I'll have to pay DCBL the rediculous amount of £350
    That won't repair your credit rating, given the length of time since the CCJ was issued.
    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.

    Hi all, thankyou for you replies. Turns out the CCJ was issues August 2016. I didn't even know! And i received no paper work to challenge this. It's been on my credit file for nearly 2 years.

    I'm guessing i'll have to pay DCBL the rediculous amount of £350

    Thank you for your support

    You guess wrong.

    That would be silly. You would still have a (satisfied) CCJ for 4 more years on your file.

  • Me and my partner have both recieved these letters same day same amounts blah blah blah. I have rung dcbl and mentioned i know nothing about this and asked for imformation which wasnt forthcoming. They will not give any details whatsoever and blatantly lie they have no details to give. There advice was to contact the court about the ccj to obtain any details myself.
  • hi all, im in the same boat as Jamo paper work from exactly the same company. I have a CCJ since sept 2016 (moved house 31st Aug). I recieved a notice of debt recovery about 14 days ago just wondering what advice there is out there, or information to proceed with a set aside?

    thanks

    You have all become the victims of credit clamping.

    This is an entirely unregulated industry which is scamming the public with inflated claims for minor breaches of contracts for alleged parking offences, aided and abetted by a handful of low-rent solicitors, and default CCJs.

    Parking Eye, CPM, Smart, and another company have already been named and shamed, as has Gladstones Solicitors, and BW Legal, (these two law firms take hundreds of these cases to court each year). They lose most of them, and have been reported to the regulatory authority by an M.P. for unprofessional conduct

    Hospital car parks and residential complex tickets have been especially mentioned.

    The problem has become so rampant that MPs have agreed to enact a Bill to regulate these scammers. Watch the video of the Second Reading in the HofC recently.

    and complain in the most robust terms to your MP. With a fair wind they will be out of business by Christmas.
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    If you have a CCJ, start your own thread after reading the NEWBIES thread (2nd post) section on set asides.
