No-one said paying was an option.

The options I have at the moment are to pay before a CCJ is issued or it goes further to court proceedings.

Redx

the CCJ only comes at the end of the court proceedings, if you had lost

in which case its pay up promptly, within 30 days

the court claim is before any CCJ, work out what CCJ means, the J is Judgment , the judgement is given by the Judge, on the day


it would have been an MCOL court claim that was issued, not a CCJ

And we win 99% of cases in court. PPCs are scammers, not to be paid.

Therefore to avoid court in the first place (which I intend to) I have to pay

Why?

What do you fear?

Have a look at this short video:

Is that what you imagined?

I have seen that video and it is helpful, thank you! At the minute I'm thinking of the time and effort of going through that whole process, which still isn't appealing to me. Thanks again though.

So you'd rather support and fund the scam against the next vulnerable people? It's a matter of principle to us; of not assisting this scam.

Having tried to speak to them on the phone to get the transfer of liability into my name, I have decided to contest it, Ive never dealt with such obstructive and unhelpful people.

Would I now have to wait for the LBC to arrive in my name before being able to contest it, or shall I ignore further letters until I receive one from an actual court? I have tried to navigate through the newbies thread but am finding it all very confusing.

You can't transfer liability, this is not your PCN, it is your father's. So he must transfer the liability, but under no circumstances should that be done by telephone - NO! Everything in writing, but he must act very quickly and with utmost urgency as once VCS issue a formal court claim (which is likely in the next few days), transferring liability is no longer legally possible and your father will have to deal with it.

Sorry, my dad has transferred liability after speaking to them over the phone. He was advised to send an email with my details which he has now done. He received a generated email back to say that this can take up to 28 days.

With the deadline being 4th Jan 2020 am I right in thinking that if they took up to 28 days the deadline would have passed and it would remain in my dad's name?

Thanks a lot for your advice.
