County Court Claim Issue Date 13th May '22

The handwriting used in the signatures on the contract look remarkably alike in construction. But, over and above that, they appear to be facsimiles superimposed onto the contract by computer embedding, rather than written directly on it.

👍 And that's another nail in UKPC's coffin with this case! 🙂

They are not winning points unless you get a sympathetic judge or one who applies Acts of parliament to the letter of the law.
It might however sway a judge who is otherwise on the fence.

I'll remain cautiously optimistic then.

Good news - UKPC's claim against me has been struck out due to them failing to pay the hearing fee in time.

Indeed that is good news.

But best to use that phrase again and remain 'cautiously optimistic'.
We have seen courts muck this up several times before when the Claimant has actually paid the hearing fee but the court didn't notice or process it properly.

Yes its quite common in small claims

We've seen it loads of times.  So the OP needs to hold onto all paperwork for a month or two, until sure there's no reversal if this order.

However, let's hope it sticks and is a win!

Now you've won this battle and earned the 'virtual t-shirt', please don't disappear just yet.

A final Public Consultation is coming.

We need you; motorists need you to help us make a difference forever.  What a waste of your time this was, and why should there be such a litigation culture in parking?   It's truly horrible being pursued for £100 plus false 'fees' for no reason, by an ex-clamper aggressive firm, isn't it? 

Join us in trying to end the conniving PPC and DRA 'added fees' fuelling the court culture.  There will be one window of opportunity - the Public Consultation is anticipated very soon.

Together, we can stop the rotten parking industry from riding roughshod over the new statutory Code and the charge level caps, and otherwise bullying all motorists forever, using the regulation to gain kudos and status.

If you are not likely to pop back here every week to check, please set up email alerts for this forum and bookmark this thread (below) as we intend that one of us posts on it when they Government opens the Consultation:

Read the latest posts there.

The PPC money-grabbers have blocked the new Code by filing for Judicial Reviews.  Stopped the declared and much welcomed parking code from February 2022, which stated that added £70 false 'DRA fee' extortion was to be banned and that parking levels would start at £50.

It's on hold. Motorists urgently need it reinstated and the ban on false 'DRA fees' confirmed, to stop the rot.

This year will be your chance to make a difference, plus any other drivers you know (family, friends) who are also fed up to the back teeth with the greedy and unscrupulous parking industry and the stranglehold they have on people.

We need high numbers of real victims to make a point of responding to this final Consultation.
