    Have I mentioned an appeal?  I do not recall.   How can you appeal, you won.  
    Sorry didn't meant to say appeal.
    So what are the process for wasting their time

    So i have just rang the court and they have confirmed discontinue of the case but because cel wrote to me the court didn't have to.

    I will now be moving onto D_P Dance stage of appealing, just wondering how long can i take to appeal
    Check with MCOL in a few days time to confirm the status. I am surprised the court don't confirm themselves as this leaves the whole process open to abuse. 
    Yes its shocking as i was waiting from a reply from the court been checking mcol since i received the letter from cel but nothing on there except my case is transferred to my local court, will continue to check

    You cannot take this lightly, if you send an LBA, that is free but they are unlikely to be frightened into action or paying you just by receiving a letter.  You need to be prepared to follow through with a claim (which you can do via MCOL) and it will cost an initial £25 filing fee, then hearing fee if it gets that far.  Look into it by asking Auntie Google.
    If that's the case i probably leave it be can't be bothered with that again its still a victory for me and all that helped so ill leave it at that. 
    Thanks again for all your help.

    You cannot take this lightly, 

    Actually you can, a letter before action costs nothing and you do not have ti make a claim, it is called bluffing.
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    Well not a court. A LBA is simply a directed letter to someone you say owes you money (or goods, or whatever) 
    Its not going to waste any time of theirs, theyve gota form response, but sure, waste your own time further on a fruitless exercise.

    ............. and how much time is going to be wasted/energy expended to open a letter, read it and file it under WPB?
