    This is often the precursor to them discontinuing.

  • I had similar offer , ignored it and then had letter from solicitor saying their client was discontinuing with the claim and their file was closed, three weeks before court date . Bit disappointing really we wanted to see them in court.

    Makes me laugh as they say "great news" then offer a discount.
    I'd rather turn up and lose than throw in the towel at the last fence. 
    These fools came in with a bang and will go out with an explosion.
    When the new code kicks in with £50 tickets, it will not be worth taking people to court where the cost will exceed the £50 ??? Suppose some with no intelligence will have a pop at it ???  

    The recent news is that DCBL are expanding and taking on more staff ??   Let's hope for their sake,  they are talking about a venture into another industry
    With the fake add-on banned and a 50%  reduction in "sales", so to speak, even a child could see they cannot be talking about the parking industry 

    It would drop from monopoly money to mickey mouse money

    Not had any indication that they are discontinuing so I'll just have to see what happens on Friday I think
    Can they discontinue at any time or just not turn up?

    Also I have just noticed the letter they sent me last week asking me to settle before court is for £256 but the amount on the court paperwork is for a total of £229

    So hearing is 11 am Friday, done all the prep I can and I'm assuming bw legal will turn up.

    BW Legal never attend. They aren't the Claimant.  Nor do most PPCs turn up.

    That is not to say no-one does.

    If you didn't know that it's a hired gun (unrelated legal rep) who attends (usually having read the papers that morning) I suggest you need to read some court report posts.

    You need to know what to expect. Search the forum for ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST and read people's hearing posts.
