    Sorry you are right it was a CCBC i'm getting confused with the lingo. I have not attended court. In terms of paper work is there anything I need to complete?

    In regards to unreasonable behaviour I'm pretty fuming with the time I've invested in this and the constant letters and threats from the company/ solicitors. Does this stand any reasonable grounds or is it simply not worth it...

    No, it was a claim.
    The CCBC is the County Court Business Centre. They send out Claiom Forms.
    "fuming" doesnt cut it. What OTHER THREADS have you read to understand the def. of "unreasonale behaviour", so we dont have to type it out again.

    That depends on the judge surely.  I would certainly take a punt.

    I’ve not read any threads so I have absolutely no idea on what the definition of “unreasonable behaviour” is. Didn’t realise it was a term. Will do the research

    Thanks for the help. Feel free to point out any useful threads on the matter.

    harassment is a pretty high bar to prove

    the fact they sent out debt collector letters and solicitor letters for a perceived non payment of an invoice isnt classed as harassment (even if you think it is) - its normal practice

    bricking your windows , intimidation and clamping your vehicle would count as unreasonable behaviour

    think carefully about it !!!

    Hey guys,
    I have received a notice of discontinuation from the solicitors after submitting the defence. Am I right to think the CCJ has been dropped? Can I recover any costs incurred or is this not recommended?
    Thanks
    Have you really received this?

    A CCJ cannot be dropped.  A judge has decided the matter.  

    You can try to recover costs, write to the court, or issue a letter before claim.  All is explained on the internet.

    Have you complained to your MP.

    Was this one in fact discontinued?  I've just caught up with the latest posts on this case from April.

    If so, well done - ANOTHER OPS ONE BITES THE DUST!
