  • Does it give you 30 days to respond and enclose a number of information sheets and a financial details form to complete (which you shouldn't do)?

    This is what the letter is saying. And i quote
    We act on behalf of the claimant and we have now been instructed to commence legal action against you to recover the amount due above, as you have failed to settle the debts that are owing, or provide a valid reason for non-payment. We understand that our client has written to you to request payment but the amount are still outstanding. ...................


    In the event the outstanding debt is not paid in full, we are instructed to commence legal proceedings. Our client is satisfied that it has sufficient evidence to support this claim and, if necessary, will rely on this evidence in court.

    If you believe you have a valid reason for non-payement, you are able to reply pursuant to paragraph 4 of the pre-action protocol for Debt claims under the civil procedure rules 1998('the pap').. A version of the information sheet and reply form taken from the PAP can be completed on our website ....
    Before completing the online reply form. You must first create a login, for which you will require your refrence(........). Alternatively, you can request a paper version.

    We refer you to paragraph 2.1c of the PAp which obliges the parties to act reasonably and proportionately.
