So ive emailed The PPC asking for my data and emailed Gladstones that i have asked for a SAR from their Cleint.Kshah786 said:Coupon-mad said:Yes, the AOS lust be done using the Defendant's Gateway details.
ThanksKeithP said:Everything, absolutely everything, must be done in the name of the named Defendant.
For example, to help with this you might want to set up an email address based on his name. You can manage it as if you were him.
So ive just completed the MCOL Acknowledgment Of Service form.

You're surely not expecting someone to pick out the next sentence there and post it on your thread, are you?2 -
You were not meant to email Gladstones. The case is not at LBC stage.
You know what to do at claim stage after the AOS because the NEWBIES thread sets it all out...and anyway you know what's next...the Defendant has a court claim, so DEFEND.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

As well as the SAR to the parking firm's DPO, also write another email, if they are using Gladstones, DCLegal, BW Legal or other solicitor.
Your email tells the solicitor:
(a) I am seeking debt advice but I deny any debt and the case must be put 'on hold' for not less than 30 days under the PAP for debt claims 2017.
(b) I have sent your client a SAR
(c) also confirm your correct 'address for service' if you've moved and the PPC has two addresses.0 -

You're surely not expecting someone to pick out the next sentence there and post it on your thread, are you?
"What if your LBC-stage complaint to the landowner doesn't get the PCN cancelled?
You'll probably get a court claim (no worries - scam soon over, no risk) and the results of the SAR will help, as it shows you their evidence early = easier to defend.
If you get a court claim, don't panic, c99% of defendants here, win!
You do not get a CCJ even if you lose, if you pay within 30 days of judgment, nothing stays on the register (credit record). No 'risk' as long as you don't miss court deadlines, you may as well defend and fight!"
My case is already at LBC stage. sorry if its basic but im confused atm, if i didnt need help i wouldnt be on this forum, i thank you in advance for your patience.0 -
Yep that's under the LBC stage advice.Kshah786 said:

You don't get a response to your acknowledgement and yes, you MUST now just do the defence. I assume @KeithP has given you the defence deadline on page one of your thread already.
You are not at DQ stage.
If you've carefully read IMPORTANT: KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN in the second post of the NEWBIES thread (in red capitals, to grab new posters' attention) then you'll understand and be better prepared for the court procedures and stages.
I think you need to re-read that section then go and grab the template defence.
If you are doing this on a phone: DON'T!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

You've opened numerous threads about different private parking tickets with different private parking companies over the recent past that you should be able to handle this one with little input from regulars here. How did you handle all of those previously?
Did you feed back the outcomes of those cases on each of your threads?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.

Indeed he did.Coupon-mad said:I assume @KeithP has given you the defence deadline on page one of your thread already.
On 21 February at 8:21PM - two whole weeks ago - I wrote on this very thread...When I wrote that you had nearly four weeks to produce a Defence.
You now have less than two weeks - still plenty of time.
