Sent this to them and they then said I should of paid within 10 mins of parking but sign as you exit says can pay before leaving . I sent them a photo of this .0

Ah that's perfect. A solid set of facts for defence. Nothing to worry about. If you are at LBC stage then robustly re-state the position and tell them in writing that there is no cause of action and they should 'go swivel'.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

They'll no doubt keep pumping up the pressure with the bullying threats and then will come all "good will" settlement offers in a last ditch to scavenge some cash off their sinking ship of a claim.
Do NOT succumb to these offers, if their case is so strong then why aren't they pushing it to court. Excel are massive cowboy chancers so hold your nerve, follow the advice here and wait out.
Do NOT fill out their BS forms and allow them any of your personal information regarding finances. This is the equivalent of a burglar peering through the windows to see what you've got and what they can take you for.5 -
Are you sure you typed in one incorrect letter OR could it be that the keypad on the ATM was faulty - not unheard of! Did they actually use this grammatically incorrect form of words? If it was you, make sure there are no similar typos/errors when you submit your defence.Isladog said:I had paid £10 for parking my horse lorry but put wrong digit in for the Reg .

I think I pressed it wrong and they said I had put in wrong Reg . My reg starts with MX and I put SX . Should I not write to the Litigation Dept again with my defense ? One thing that puzzles me is that they send these letters by 2nd class post and not where I have to sign . What proof have they that I have received them ? I could just say I have not received any letters .0

Forget that. They don't have to prove sending.Should I not write to the Litigation Dept again with my defense ?Defence. No 's' (important to get things spot on when you are going to be defending a court claim).
But yes that's what I already advised you to do.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

My reg starts with MX and I put SXFreudian slip? Anything else on your mind at the time? 😄Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
