    Reading back, The story is such a farce. On one hand you have a money scammer chasing you and on the other hand,another money scammer.. that's ZZPS, CONFIRMING YOU PAID

    No wonder this is classed as a sewage living industry

    No honour among thieves.  :D

  • This is just another rubbish claim from UKPC to which DCBL have no idea

    As long as you can prove she paid and it is the same ticket they are chasing, the result can only be a spanking in court for DCBL
    A bank statement is perfect, and the confirmation from ZZPS

    You can ask the judge for unreasonable behaviour costs

    You have a choice, either show your proof to DCBL AND TELL THEM TO CANCEL, If they ignore you then let a judge spank them and claim unreasonable costs.

    Chances are you will end in this thread which mainly comprises of UKPC rubbish

    DCB LEGAL RECORD OF PRIVATE PARKING COURT CLAIM DISCONTINUATIONS

    And, do read this .... UKPC / TRUSTPILOT = 99% BAD

    Be it DCBL discontinue or they are spanked in court, a complaint should be made to the BPA as it seems UKPC record keeping fails

    So where does one stand if one instructs a legal entity to defend the claim, paying a flat fee for instance, and then DCBL discontinue? Or is it the case that once a Counterclaim is entered the case must proceed to court?

    As Umkomaas says above.

    If you are going to counterclaim you must do this quickly. A counterclaim keeps the claim live regardless what DCBL do.  As ZZPS has confirmed the amount was paid, DCBL will be scuppered 

    And you never know, a judge may well award you extra unreasonable costs

    This is the Gauntlet these legals run.

    I hear the claim has been discontinued so this is another one for @Umkomaas

    Counterclaim is in play.

    Final update: 
    DCBL claim discontinued.

    Counterclaim Court hearing date was set for early May counterclaiming in excess of 900 plus costs.

    This hearing was then deferred by the court to end of June. My daughter got a bit tired of all the messing about so decided to accept DCBL's out-of-court offer of about £650.

    This at least covered her costs but meant that DCBL got away without the spanking they so richly deserved. Such is life. Thanks all for following and wise words.

    Decent! They paid her £650?!

    Well done all round.  Yay, you won s counterclaim!  WELL DONE.
    ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!

    Could you show how the Defendant pleaded the Counterclaim in a reply here please?  They are hard to plead in a way that would be taken seriously, so the D did very well.

    And we sincerely hope that you are au fait with the need to respond to the final Government Public Consultation this Summer?

    Anticipated IN MID JULY because they have said 'before Summer Recess'.  i.e. any week now!!

    We all need to ram the nail in the coffin of the false £70 'DRA fee' add-on, that actually funds the court claim and toxic CCJ culture, as well as the DRA and roboclaim 'legals' gaslighting of people.

    Please come back here when it opens.

    I hope it is the case that DCB Legal paid her, in which case, brilliant result.
