    Hello all,
    I'm happy to inform you that my case which was transferred to the small claims court and due for hearing in March 2026 has now been discontinued by the claimant!
    I was first offered a reduction to £60 from £277 but I ignored the offer and a week later received their email that the claims has been discontinued.

    I am very grateful for all the invaluable advice and resources I have obtained from this platform. 
    Could you post up a redacted copy of the formal Notice of Discontinuance (N279) when you receive it, then I can count you in on the shameful DCB Legal Discontinuations thread. 

    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.

    Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; show him how to catch fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.

    But we need the NoD image please. See the linked thread for the little bits to redact.

  • Thank you, @Umkomaas. I am happy to help with collating information on DCBL.... I have all the harassing threat letters from DCBL for debt recovery and from Parking Eye over the years.
