"So next I'm expecting a booking for mitigation call,.............."

A heads-up  -  that should be "mediation"

If you have the auto email response,  its received,  but not logged on MCOL yet

Check MCOL twice a week for the next fortnight or so, to ensure that it's logged 

Keep following the 8 steps too

Ok. So next I'm expecting a booking for mitigation call, and then a court date before it hopefully gets canned. In the meantime I will square my evidence folder away in case.

It's a mediation call.

Aye that was a typo on my part. 

Still no update on the MCOL page and were past the due date. Hope that doesn't see me off.

Re-forward your unprocessed defence.

Mediation call is booked for 02/09.

Read the mediation advice in the 2 announcement threads, plus study a few other recent cases with mediation feedback too

Ok, nothing in claim history about questionnaire. Last entry was defence received, so I assume that's just dcb trying to get ahead of the curve/keep the pressure on.

Now read this message and please prepare to join us to do the Public Consultation once we've discussed it.

It's vital the Government hears from Defendants. Please bookmark the main thread linked in that link. Come back in August to take part. We need to drown out the codswallop from the parking industry and their relatives posing as ordinary motorist consumers.

And just a reminder even though this is stressful: while your case is quiet, before the end of next week please please do the government's Public Consultation.

We need every poster to come back & complete this vital Consultation before the deadline.

We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that. It doesn't matter; no knowledge is needed except re your own experiences so you can call out a scam industry and you'll protect millions of motorists and help change the law.

I've written some guidance on that thread. I have covered almost every question, providing ideas if you agree with our stance on things like DRFs, which we say must be banned.

Ordinary people like you are falling victim to this scam 15 million times per annum. Motorists need your voice added please.

If you have done it already - thankyou!
