Court claim for £900 for 3 old PCNs
Starkey2000
Posts: 3 Newbie
Hello, I’ve recently received a court claim for around £900 for some parking fines. These fines date back to 2020 where I was at my gym and all three are within 2 weeks. I can’t remember why I wouldn’t have put my reg in the machine (maybe it was broke) but I paid for my membership. I can’t remember if I received the original pcns as I was moving house at the time. What are my options I only have a few more days to respond and I can’t really afford to pays 1k. Should I try and dispute this? Please help

Yes just read the SECOND post of the NEWBIES thread (see my signature for how to hop there).
Then do the AOS (explained there with a walkthrough pictorial guide) then use the Template Defence and draft your facts, which slot into paragraph 3.
You will never pay, no CCJ is risked and it probably won't even get as far as a hearing. All very easy and a useful experience in seeing off a 'scam'.
First, please post a photo of the claim form page, but REDACT
- your name & address & QR Code
- your VRM
- the Claim number (top right)
- the Password (lower right)PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Just read a few G24 / DCB Legal claim threads from March/April. There are claim forms EXACTLY like that on the forum already. Copy what they did.

Can you show us the attached Notice of Discontinuance you must have got last year please, so we can count it?

I'm not sure you'll get it - the OP was last active in May 2025 according to their profile.
