Mouse007 said:KeithP said:Hatebeingdone said:Hi all. A friend of mine used the template to fight a parking fine but didn't get his defence checked. He completed an N180 form and has now had a letter saying they will accept £135.00. He is inclined to accept because he is worried about having to take a day off work to go to court. Could someone check over his defence now and give him some advice please?
Trying to deal with the parking problems of two different people in the one thread can only lead to confusion - we have seen it happen too often.Keith beat me to itForum etiquette: Hijacking - always start your own thread to ask a question, don’t post on other peoples. Otherwise you end up with multiple conversations going on.0 -
Hi Lovely people. Thank you so much for your help. My daughter has received the following in response to my posts last year (Please help)
Our client has instructed us to discontinue Court proceedings and close our file. Therefore, please find enclosed the Claimant’s N279 Notice of Discontinuance
for your records.
Another win!
Just need to fight the new one now.
We are so grateful.8 -
Very good news! Discontinuance = win.Calling @Umkomaas !
ANOTHER DCBLEGAL ONE BITES THE DUST!
One favour please:
We need you - as a genuine PPC victim of aggression, sharp practice and an 'extortion' attempt to add £70 - to respond robustly to the Public Consultation on the level of parking charges and banning of the false added DRA 'fee' that too many honest motorists currently fall victim to.
It will need consumer input (powerful voices) but change is afoot. It's taken about 5 years to get to this stage:

And then the industry threw victims' money at it and blocked and delayed it - explained here:

Please now Bookmark BOTH threads and set up email alerts on your posting profile, so that you get an email alert when we post there, as we will, once the Public Consultation opens...
...anticipated in a few weeks...
We need people like you and your driving family & friends to respond in high numbers!
You have a personal story to tell about the culture of greed that inflates parking charges to line the pockets of roboclaim bullyboy 'legal' firms, and incentivises court as a cheaper form of debt collection than the PPC making proper efforts to engage with the consumer,
I am sure you and your daughter (and other drivers in the family) want your voices heard to stop this happening again.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Is it the boss of DCBL or a so called para-legal who is making them the joke of the legal profession ?
I'm sure you will win the next one, be it in court or another disconuation
The next question must be ... why do the SRA ALLOW ONE OF THEIR MEMBERS to waste the time of the courts and more so, attempt to scam the public with fake amounts???3 -
