 If your wife is the named Defendant, then everything must be done in her name.stu007 said:Issue date 10th March 2022With a Claim Issue Date of 10th March, you have until Tuesday 29th March to file an Acknowledgment of Service. Do not file an Acknowledgment of Service before 15th March, but otherwise there is nothing to be gained by delaying it.To file an Acknowledgment of Service, follow the guidance in the Dropbox file linked from the second post in the NEWBIES thread.Having filed an Acknowledgment of Service in a timely manner, you have until 4pm on Tuesday 12 April 2022 to file your Defence.That's over four weeks away. Plenty of time to produce a Defence, but please don't leave it to the last minute.To create a Defence, and then file a Defence by email, look again at the second post on the NEWBIES thread - immediately following where you found the Acknowledgment of Service instructions.Don't miss the deadline for filing an Acknowledgment of Service, nor that for filing a Defence.
 Do not try and file a Defence via the MoneyClaimOnline website. Once an Acknowledgment of Service has been filed, the MCOL website should be treated as 'read only'.1

 Thanks for confirmation. There are some Anchor supermarkets in Scotland, and had this been the case with your charges, it might have put a different complexion on things. Not so.stu007 said:

 She didn't complain initially on receiving the PCNs as she thought they would simply go away.0

            She should complain now and require her former employer to cancel the charges.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.
