    Hi,  I emailed my defence on the 1st July and received an email of confirmation which stated I would hear something within 10 days but I’ve not had a reply.  
    Should I be worried or do I need to follow it up ?

    The typical wait time is around 2 weeks, for it to be logged,  nevermind anything in reply,  so hopefully be done before weekend,  check your claim history then , or before 

    BTW,  you won't get a postal letter that quickly,  which is why you should be checking your MCOL claim history

    Hi,

    I have received this letter advising that they intend to proceed with the claim and asking me to call to discuss a settlement.

    Can you please advise if I should call them?

    Hi,  I have now received N180 and I’m ready to email it.
    Am I right in thinking that when I email it to do.cnbc@justice.gov.uk , I need to cc in DCB Legal and Euro Carparks ?

    That email address is incorrect 

    No, you email it back to the CNBC and CC in DCB Legal,  not ECP

    Thanks.
    I copy and pasted the email address from the box on the thread that has the defence template/steps to follow.  I’ve just double checked the box and it does copy and paste as do.cnbc@justice.gov.uk
    But I assume it must be DQ.cnbc@justice.go.uk

    If I copy and paste from the box it comes out as DO and not DQ. I’ve done it 4 times and same every time. Very strange! 
    Thanks for the clarification.

    The 8 steps say

    5. the completed DQ should be returned by email to the CCBC to this address:  DQ.CNBC@justice.gov.uk.      

    Cc a copy of your completed DQ to the Claimant (or their solicitor if they are using one).
