Yes.
Do not ignore a proper Letter of Claim, which will give 30 days to respond, not the Mickey Mouse 7 or 14 day rubbish.

If you get a LoC, the Newbies tells you how to handle that

thank you for the prompt replies!

im sorry I have not received any previous posts (I will).

the incident occurred at Hartlepool marina in the north east of England (will not attend again, business are being crippled by these cowboys)

hope this helps with any further advice.  TIA

Hartlepool Marina is covered by Port Authority byelaws. You should contact the PPC and point this out to them, telling them the keeper cannot therefore be held liable so they should cancel now and instruct their agents to do the same in order to save themselves money.

A DCBL debt chaser letter tryng to scare you that bailiffs will call on you

Of course, it's total rubbish the same as that idiotic logo "Can't Pay"
They of course refer to the soap opera on TV ???

As said, if you get a Letter before Claim from DCBL come back here and we can play this fantasy game togetther

You really should re-read the 2nd post of the NEWBIES thread.  You need to know what NOT to ignore.

Certainly no paying it!

Received today, thought last night I hadn’t heard anything.. lo and behold 😅.

thanks in advance.

Follow the advice given to you by Trainerman on the 7th of Feb.

Respond robustly, and include the advice I gave you about the site being not relevant land because it is covered by marine byelaws.

But why would you even think of doing that, when you know you'll pay nothing and you know EXACTLY how to respond using the LBC response template (found where I advised you to read, almost 2 months ago).

Why would you even consider settling when all the advice you've been given so far, tells you that you won't need to pay a penny into this scam? By telling us that you are still considering settling this, you are indicating that you are low-hanging fruit on the gullible tree, ripe for the picking by these easily defeated scammers.

Whether you respond to the LoC from DCB Legal or you don't (makes absolutely no difference to the outcome), you will receive a county court claim which you will have to respond to. However, defending the claim is simple and takes 5 minutes of your time. You will be able to use the template defence and just edit one paragraph where you state that as the keeper, you cannot be liable as the location is under statutory control and the Claimant cannot transfer liability from the driver to the keeper.

As the operator is now relying on the intellectually malnourished services of DCB Legal, you will also be able to use the template defence that includes the CEL v Chan appeal judgment as a preliminary matter to get the claim struck out even before it gets allocated to a court local to you. Fear not, as this is DCB Legal, if I were a betting man, I would put my money on any claim submitted by DCB Legal being discontinued before any hearing.

Operators only use the dregs of the roboclam business when they know they have no chance of winning in court. They rely on the victim being that low-hanging fruit I mentioned earlier and capitulating into paying the scammers.

You said early on that you are fighter. Then fight this easily defeated scam. What's the bet that you are yet another "winner" named in this thread that shows how many discontinuations follow when a robust defence is submitted to the spurious claim:

Thank you for the replies!

I would love nothing more to fight this AND win.

Can you send the link for the template please and I shall send this recorded delivery over the weekend.

thanks in advance.
