    The debt collection agency is DCBL, the PPC is Civil Enforcement Ltd. 

    After I went back as per the parkingnews article DCBL responded thusly:

    Thank you for your recent email, the points of which have been noted.

    Please note, DCBL are unable to enter any further written correspondence regarding your case, as we feel we have fully addressed all points, and our position has been fully outlined.

    A complete nothing reply, probably because they know they have no leg to stand on. I assume I just wait for further correspondence at this point?
    Unless you can get a landowner cancellation, and complaining to your MP, that's as much as you can do for now unless/until you receive a Letter Of/Before Claim from the PPC's solicitors, or a County Court Claim via the Northampton CNBC, come back to this thread for further advice. 

    To get ahead of the curve, you could prepare yourself with a bit of gentle reading of the NEWBIES FAQ Announcement, second post, and the Template Defence Announcement, both situated near the top of the forum thread list. 
    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.

    Thanks - that makes sense. 

    On the landowner cancellation, they've been very sympathetic but have told me they can't cancel charges beyond a certain date post-issue - I'm not sure why but they have no reason to lie as they actively want to avoid parking charges being issued by paying customers (i.e. me). If the transfer of liability requires a new PCN to be issued, does that reopen the opportunity for landowner cancellation, or is the time limit calculated based on the date of contravention?

    Landowners should be able to cancel at any time,  regardless of any outstanding pcn, old or new

    The 2 topics are unrelated,  separate issues 

    If your partner has already named you as driver to CEL, then you should have received a parking charge in your own name,  from CEL
