Doing so will gain you 28 days in total, i beleive, in which to formulate a stratagy.
As this is now proceding to court, you need to decide what to do, you dont say how much the claim is for, but your choice is going to be either admit the debt in full, admit the debt in part, or put forward a defense to the claim that has a reasonable chance of success.
Legal Beagles may be able to help you with that, there site can be forund here :

No I haven't acknowledged service online, how do I do that?

Thank you for everything Sourcrates!0 -
I have a CCJ on my file from 2018
You need to deal with that via the set-aside process. Google N244 form.
Regard the court claim, you need the date on the top right box. You have 19 days from that date to acknowledge and 33 days from that date to send in a defence. Or pay.
As above, use the Legal Beagles site for advice.Unlike some here, I am not omniscient. If I am wrong correct me. I won't take offence.
