    That too is already in the Newbies thread.

    It is a step detailed in bargepole's 'court procedures' thread, linked for all Defendants to read under the red capitals heading 'IMPORTANT: KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN' in the 2nd post of the NEWBIES thread.

    You should be already expecting every stage.

    Thank you for responding, as said previously I find it really really difficult to navigate the site due to my dyslexia.  Sorry if I am a pain. I've been looking for 30 mins and cannot find it.  Would be helpful if someone doesn't mind providing me with the link to make it easier for me.

    Thanks for the information.  I am just completing my form but it is has different questions on it than the one you have on the link
    D1 states Do you consider that this claim is suitable for determination without a hearing i.e by a judge reading and considering case papers etc - if no please provide reasons why.  All thee other questions though numbered differently are the some

    thanks

    This thread - New Questions on the N180 Form - should help.

    I have just had an email from the landlord stating that they have sent an email to  UKPC for them to cancel the charge.  I have still sent my N180 just in case it goes pear shaped.  Should I send the email to court and UKPC?  thanks

    You don't send a copy of that to the court but it won't harm you to send a copy to UKPC. No idea if their "robo-claim" system will actually be able to decipher it though as they all seem to be intellectually challenged at that company.

    If UKPC proceed with the claim, include the email at the Witness Statement/Exhibits stage which comes much later in the process

    The chances are that UKPC will tell the landlord it cannot be cancelled because it's now in the hands of DCBL.
    That of course would be rubbish, UKPC instructed DCBL and they can dis-instruct them just as quickly

    Hope the landlord will be wise to this

    UKPC would be wise to call off DCBL because if this did end up in court, they and DCBL would be mincemeat in the hands of a judge ...... wasting the courts time and you can claim your costs
