CEL requesting payment after POPLA unsuccessful appeal
Comments
-
UPDATE on this case:
CEL have responded to the SAR I sent them, provided all documents, threatening to tell the court that all my continued correspondence have been an attempt to delay progression of this case, they're still demanding payment to be made within 7days or issue a claim. I am obviously not looking to pay at this point.
Their costs breakdown was £100 for PCN and Debt Recovery Costs of £82. Can I challenge the Debt Recovery Costs in court as I have warned them previously not to engage debt collectors but raise a claim if they really wanted to pursue the alleged debt (but they obviously ignored me)?
The gym on the other hand have been very unhelpful and insisting they cannot help any further than providing me proof of using the gym on the day which they have already provided. Any other suggestion on what I can request from them to support my case? I am thinking of asking for an email from them to confirm that I could park at the gym on the day and that I did attend the gym on the day.
Finally, do I need to respond to CEL following their latest letter? I am thinking of sending a letter to let them know I have been cooperative with them to end this matter by encouraging them to cancel on a number of occasions and also dispute their debt recovery costs of £82 as I have informed them not to engage debt collectors, so I'll not be held responsible. Thoughts please.

Thoughts please.There's nothing more you can usefully achieve via correspondence with them. They want your money, you don't want them to have it.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. .

We would normally tell you to ask them upon what legal basis they are claiming the "debt recovery" costs but you have already done that.1

Well I know what F&O mean , I probably know what the other 2 letters mean too
But I doubt that anyone is allowed to explain them in precise terms 🙃0 -
