I predict a discontinuation very soon, keep checking your inbox and spam folders for their N279 document and post a redacted picture of the N279 document after it arrives 

Hi,

I got the N279 email!

On the 8th day after their email offering to settle on  £60 if paid within 7 days, instead of the £292. 

Screenshots attached stating they are discontinuing the court proceedings. 

Thanks again for everyone’s help!

Quick question, do I still need to do the WS (the deadline is end of the month) or anything else? Should I call the court to see if it’s been cancelled etc?

No , it's over with  ( although you could phone them and check if the hearing is vacated  )

Well done, another one for @Umkomaas , CEL & DCB LEGAL

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!

And don't disappear just yet...

...this month, we need you: PLEASE bookmark this thread below and do the government's Public Consultation if you haven't done it yet. Their proposals are wrong. We must stop them.

See this thread: -

https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6617396/parking-code-of-practice-consultation-8-weeks-from-11th-july-2025/p1

We need every poster to come back & complete this vital Consultation before the deadline! Just 2 weeks left but please don't rush it. You can do some then save it and come back to it as you have time.

We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that.

So to try to help, I've written some guidance on that thread.

Any questions on the Consultation please ask - on the dedicated thread - but I've covered up to question 20 already in that first post, openly telling everyone what I'm going to put and/or what sort of evidence you might wish to use for your response, if you agree with what we'll be saying from our experience.

Whilst your answers must of course be your own, there are vital points to safeguard motorists interests to make, that many people may not think of without our guidance because we see cases every day and we know the legal background. However, people like you have lived & breathed the intimidation, greed and unfairness first hand so your voice is needed!

Thank you @sammyb1996 for the copy of your NoD. I can now get this counted in the DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍
