    That's a lot better. All paragraphs & all pages of your document will need a number.

    After Edward and Smith, add the paragraph (probably it appears in your defence) that points out that the maximum sum recoverable under POFA even if a firm complies, is the PCN sum and this is not £170. They can't get more money from a keeper than the £PCN on the sign & NTK.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Hi all, quick update. I spoke to the court to check if the court fee had been paid and they informed me that Euro Car Parks have discontinued! I haven’t had anything from them confirming this though…. Many thanks for all your help in this process, I do have another one pending so might be back for some more help!! Thanks again 🙂

    Great news they've discontinued hope you get the N279 notice of discontinuance. Remember to post it here so Umkomaas adds you to his growing list. Good luck with your other one.

    Please consider signing some of the parking petitions we really need Govt to turn their verbal promises to regulate this nasty industry into action. 🙏

    Ooh ... this might be no. 550

    And what a fine example of the bulk litigation 'CFA Lite'? ... MIL Collections style? ... abusive) MO of DCB Legal.

    Calling @Umkomaas

    Timeline:

    Parking event 2020.

    NoD signed 2023 (a year before DCB Legal even had the case file)...

    File gets to DCB Legal and claim not filed until August 2024.

    Template pre-signed '2023 batch' NoD finally posted, after the Defendant poker-faced them, in 2025.

    Thank you @Coupon-mad and @Gr1pr for alerts. Thank you OP for the copy of your NoD. I can now get this counted in the DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍 
    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.
