Of course you pay nothing when you win.

These cases are very easy to defend using near-templates. Usually they give up before the hearing. 

We do this every single day. We know what we are doing. Trust us!

99% win rate for seven years... Yes the odd case lost pays no more than c£200 (i.e. LESS THAN THE CLAIM). No CCJ risked.

Hi,

So can you clarify everything I need to do, and what i'd be paying, should I lose this court case? I want to weigh up all options before making my final decision. 

Thank you

You are asking too much from a group of volunteers.
Read the NEWBIES thread again and ask specific questions if you have any.

Already covered umpteen times in this thread.

So you're all 100% sure that the most I'd pay is around £200? If so, I will let it go to court.

The third option seems really interesting, and something I haven't read on your "newbies" thread.

Talking to a lawyer on justanswer, and they say

"Be careful with the wording.You were parked.You may have been doing a delivery but the vehicle wasn’t moving and you were not in it so it was parked. 

You have basically got 3 options. 1 You pay them. 2 You tell them that you’re not going to pay them and they should take you to court. 3 You pay them a cheque of, say, half of what they want and hope that they cash it. It has to go with a suitable letter. 3 continued: It doesn’t work the same way if you make an offer without sending the cheque because in the letter you tell them that by the action of cashing the cheque they accept it and that if they don’t accept it they should send it back. The cheque in the hand is better than an argument which they may not win.

Put any offer in writing and at the top of the written offer put the words “Without Prejudice Save as to Costs “ and then, they cannot produce it in court as any kind of evidence that you accept liability or any admission. It applies if it's a genuine offer to settle and doesn't bind you to pay that sum or any sum at all UNLESS the other side accept it because once they accept it, then you are bound by it."

I have already given you my thoughts on your case, and links such as

Perhaps hire yourself a qualified lawyer from the SRA members list if you don't believe our advice ( we give out advice and information, not a qualified decision on your own case. ) , not the chatbot

Hi,

I understand that and sorry for the nonstop repeated questions, I'm just scared of paying way more than ~£200, for this case, and it potentially being £400+ or even going into the thousands... Im financially in the shitter 

Gr1pr

None of which is relevant to your case, several people have told you what the approximate cost for losing would be , £200 , so either you respectfully believe us, or you don't 

Personally, I am reminded of the film Groundhog Day
