    Of course an overseas address is serviceable. The CPR contain specific provisions for how valid service can be effected abroad.
    Although a practising Solicitor, my posts here are NOT legal advice, but are personal opinion based on limited facts provided anonymously by forum users. I accept no liability for the accuracy of any such posts and users are advised that, if they wish to obtain formal legal advice specific to their case, they must seek instruct and pay a solicitor.

    No one said an overseas address was unserviceable...I merely mentioned that some PPC scum TRY to say that they are unserviceable.


    FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT....AN OVERSEAS ADDRESS IS SERVICEABLE!!!!!!!!!
  • Not getting shouty at you Computer, just saying. The way to go is always to fall back on the court rules to shut them up.

    Or do both
    Name the driver (inc address), then the day after appeal to POPLA stating that your liability under POFA has ended, this is undeniable.
    This is the best approach as a win at POPLA will prevent further threats from the PPC & debt collectors letters for the next six years.
