Several DCBL Letters received. Now at WS stage. Help Needed! (Updated Thread Title)

DCBL won't be doing anything , they are debt collectors and aren't involved 

The parking company and DCB LEGAL will have to decide if that fee is being paid or if the claim will be discontinued 

They tend to discontinue before the payment deadline,  as seen by over 610 discontinued cases in the thread by Umkomaas,  so keep checking your inbox and spam folder for the N279 NoD document

I am thrilled to update you guys that DCBL and the parking company have decided to discontinue the Court proceedings!

Thanks to everyone who helped with this. It is deeply appreciated.

Great stuff! Congrats. You won!

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!

But we need two things please:

1.  A picture of the actual NoD attached to that email. Without it, Umkomaas can't count your success.

2.  And if you want to be part of the push to change things in future, it's very important that people like you tell the Government NOW that:

a) you have no faith in POPLA or the IAS and that there must be the SINGLE APPEALS SERVICE that the Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019 *almost* promised. As long as it is independent and impartial (and only ONE appeals service, not two involved in a race to the bottom) that will give a real option to resolve disputed cases out of court.

b).  THAT THE ENRICHMENT OF 'DEBT RECOVERY FEES' MUST BE COMPLETELY BANNED. DISPUTED CASES ARE NOT SOLVED BY DEMANDING MORE MONEY AND OFFERING A 'PAYMENT PLAN'!

c). Tell them about your experience and the complete and utter waste of court resources caused on a grand scale by DCB Legal,

Responses are invited to the Consultation now:

Do it this month or in August at the latest pleeease! We will discuss it on that thread.

Hey there,

Here's the NoD - https://freeimage.host/i/FPWFUgf

Also, in terms of the push to change things. Should I just go through the online survey or post my sort of letter to the government in the consultation thread?

Wait till we discuss it more next week! Don't rush it but don't miss it.

Thanks @Coupon-mad. 

Thank you @Capana for the copy of your NoD. I can now get this counted in the DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍
