DCBLegal ltd Letter Of Claim

Comments

  • Total Parking have relayed from Team AB that the landlord never had a parking spot, despite them swapping his own registration for mine and them agreeing. That seems like primacy of conteact or something, as they had previously registered his car

    It seems he may have given me a spot he did not have rights to..

    reply from the sar request

    Thanks for your request.
    In order for us to be able to gather all the evidence you have requested, could you please provide your vehicle's registration ( as apparently your SAR is linked to a parking charge you have received) and proof of ID?
    Please note that the 30 days do not start to count until we have received such information.
    Kind regards,

    i sent the code from the letter of claim, ill send the v5c and my passport or something

    I wouldn't send a copy your password which contains a photo of you, your DoB, and your signature, all of which are unnecessary for the PPC, but could be of some interest to all those boys in Calais!

    Send them a couple of copies of recent utility bills instead.

    Send them a copy of your V5c if it has your current address on it and a copy of the Letter of Claim.
    Do not send any photo id.
    And a passport won't help anyway - the holder's address isn't on it.

    Further response:

    "Thank you very much for the information, I will prepare everything you have asked for and send it as soon as possible.
    In the meantime, could you please answer let me know if you will want the information to be sent via email or by post?
    Finally, I would like to remind you that, as we explained on our appeal answer, the parking charges are not related to a PDT machine, as there is none in this car park, so we will not be able to supply that evidence you requested.

    I'd 100% choose email, as you can then use their bad pics with your WS later on, for court.

    You can also adapt and send to the roboclaim legal firm, the email that I drafted last week in a CIS case.  It starts 'Dear R Taylor' and you'll find it in my replies under my profile (around 24th Feb I think).

    You need to get up to speed with the new Code of Practice and the fact the fake added debt recovery 'fees' are banned.


    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Thanks coupon-mad, 

    So, given the circumstances and email trail (the landlord has contacted team ab - the landowner, I guess - directly to state he has several parking spaces, one of which team ab confirmed was transferred to me, and to state that they never recieved any meassage to the contrary), I can say that the alleged debt is contested and the claim process should be stopped completely?

    FYI apparently the member of staff that dealt with it has left the landowner...

    Also maybe of note - I have not yet recieved any further communications from dcblegal





    Copied for reference:

    "Dear R Taylor (or CIS' computer template writer, if R Taylor doesn't actually exist),

    No.  Please read the new Code of Practice and stop doing what DLUHC's Neil O'Brien MP described as issuing intimidating letters 'designed to extort money from motorists'.  You know, in the Foreword of the new Code of Practice which banned false 'debt recovery/admin fees'.  Did CIS miss the memo?

    The alleged 'debt is robustly and genuinely disputed.  As such, you must stop work on it (please read the FCA Conc rules about disputed debts). Save CIS the postage and printing ink, hand the case back to your parking firm client and run along to find yourself a weaker victim.

    cheers, 

    Your name"
