Excel Parking Claim Form - Defence for Review

I've seen DCBL cases hit the courts and I (for the defendant) have won, more than once. Their organisation and paperwork is as bad as Gladstones et al so nothing to worry about.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Thanks @ Coupon-mad just a shame couldn’t have heard both cases today. Be interesting to see if the Witness Statement for second claim differs from that Excel Issued for first claim.

Look at other DCBL cases and you will see what a DCBL WS looks like.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Umkomaas said:I'd nonetheless ask them the question:It might be worth a quick email to Savills (who have been generally quite helpful with parking issues) to ask whether, given that their contract with Excel shows no authority to pursue charges through the civil courts, they have given specific authority to them to sue you?Savills came back this morning, nothing note worthy in my opinion.
Thanks1 -
Other than the fact they haven't confirmed whether 'provided the authority to collect and (sic) unpaid charges' includes authority to sue through the courts (expressively!) or not. There's not much more you can do to ferret more out, but if your back is against the wall in court, you could lob this in, but it's not your trump card.Fiortdunlop2020 said:

ThanksPlease note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

Ref the "Savills" reply;-
There's no mention in the agreement for the subsidiary companies to collect any unpaid charges, so they haven't read the agreement they signed.

BTW I am unsure why they highlighted the termination section1

Maybe it's the bit about the authority to pursue outstanding charges beyond the life of any terminated contract. Are Excel still contracted to infest the car park?Fiortdunlop2020 said:BTW I am unsure why they highlighted the termination sectionPlease note, we are not a legal advice forum.

@Umkomaas I had assumed the charges referenced in the highlighted bit pertained to charges between excel and Savills not the motorists??
Also I believe so0
