Hi
I have read through the newbie section and as my CCBC claim form is from Northampton it advised me to create a thread for help.

You can submit a SAR to the PPC, even though you seem to know why you received the PCN, as it might elicit some paperwork or photos that you can use to your advantage. For now you need to look at the drop box link to see how to complete the AoS. What is the date of issue on the claim form? If you post this, KeithP will be along to give you some deadlines and useful advice.

Yes email a SAR to Napier DPO

Yes , do the AOS online , after reading how in post #2 of the newbies faq sticky thread near the top of the forum

Start drafting your defence and post it below

Ps , every MCOL claim form is issued by the CCBC in Northampton

The paper claims come from one centre , in Salford

Hi thanks for the quick reply.
The date of issue on the claim form is 31st Dec 2019, it says the day of service is taken 5 days after the issue date shown.
Ill check the dropbox link. Thank you.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm confused with what steps to take and in what order and if they are different with it being from Northampton?

90%+ of all small claims emanate from Northampton CCBC - it is the national administration centre. Your case will eventually be heard at your local court - nominating that comes later in the process. Your claim is on all fours with everyone else's - so just follow the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, post #2.

With a Claim Issue Date of 31st December, you have until Monday 20th January to file an Acknowledgment of Service, but there is nothing to be gained by delaying it. To file an AoS, follow the guidance offered in a Dropbox file linked from post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread. About ten minutes work - no thinking required.

Having filed an AoS, you have until 4pm on Monday 3rd February 2020 to file your Defence.

That's over three weeks away. Plenty of time to produce a Defence, but please don't leave it to the last minute.


When you are happy with the content, your Defence could be filed via email as suggested here:

Print your Defence.
1. Sign it and date it.
   
2. Scan the signed document back in and save it as a pdf.
   
3. Send that pdf as an email attachment to [email protected]
   
4. Just put the claim number and the word Defence in the email title, and in the body of the email something like 'Please find my Defence attached'.
   
5. No need to do anything on MCOL, but do check it after a few days to see if the Claim is marked "defence received". If not, chase the CCBC until it is.
   
6. Do not be surprised to receive an early copy of the Claimant's Directions Questionnaire, they are trying to keep you under pressure. Just file it.
   
7. Wait for your DQ from the CCBC, or download one from the internet, and then re-read post #2 of the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread to find out exactly what to do with it.

Thanks, ive sent a SAr request to Napier and ive done the AOS by following the dropbox link.
Im going through the Bargepole posts on poor signage and writing out my defence which i will post.

KeithP

No poor signage is not enough.

Have you read any of the seventeen example Defences linked from post #2 of the NEWBIES thread?

Read them all. Take you time to get it right.

You want to Chuck everything but the kitchen sink in , a one topic defence is very poor and poor signage is NOT enough

Leave the story telling for the Witness plus Exhibits plus costs schedule stage in a few months time

Read the CEC16 thread plus the thread by basher52 plus the abuse of process thread too , as well as those 17 defence examples , then adapt one

nosferatu1001

Poor signage is not all you defend upon. Not a single one of th 17 defences ONLY talks about poor signage, which should be your clue!
