Do you really want to pay? Also, if you haven't yet updated the PPC and their legal that they must erase your old address and update their records with your new address, how do you know they sent you a letter 2 weeks ago?

The advice here is usually to ignore any requests to pay once proceedings have commenced. You have a good defence and it shows a slight lack of confidence in their claim if they are prepared to settle for less than the original claim. On the other hand, you may want to respond with an offer to settle for £0, just to show that you were making an effort to avoid the claim going to court.

What??
What court fee are you trying to pay?
It is for the Claimant to pay any hearing fee.

Look again at your Notice of Allocation. The Notice that gives the hearing date.

Is there not a paragraph something like:

Each party must deliver to every other party and to the court office copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing no later than [ . . . ] [14 days before the hearing].

Might be on the back.

Those 'documents on which you intend to rely' are your Witness Statement and evidence.

Current exemplar WS are those by @aphex007 and @SJRRJS.

You obviously need to adapt them to your particular circumstances.

"You obviously need to adapt them to your particular circumstances."

A heads-up  -  you will see that in the above mentioned WS examples they refer to the BPA CoP because they are BPA AoS members  -  your claimant is an IPC AoS member so you should be using/quoting the relevant version of the IPC CoP.

First G24 claim I can recall.
