    Hi all, 
    Struggling on what to put on (5-6) paragraphs 
    I have contacted Cel, and offered to pay for 1 H, without revealing driver, the PCN is produced bcose, if you failed to pay within first 10 mins.
    Should I just copy paste the template and not bother much about it.
    Thanks advise please

    No.

    What do you mean you've offered to pay? When? Why?

    Your case looks like a '5 minute rule case. An enforceable term. Search the forum for:

    Which you can see is a term which was banned and found to be unrecoverable in Hannah Robinson's hugely publicised case (you'll see what I mean when you do the search and copy from other defences in the results).

    I gave you the search words in bold and advised you to search the forum with those words. It could not be easier.

    Its 33 days from the issue date from the top right of the claim form,  by 4pm , so what was the issue date and what date was the subsequent AOS completed online   ?  2 crucial dates

    Thank you Gr1pr

  • Hannah Robinson Defendant wonders mine

    Where can I find the defence template please.
    @Coupon-mad suggest, not being able to find much info.
    On my case it's POC in breach of terms, if you don't pay within 10 minutes.

    Can anyone give a bit more clear advice, or direction. 
    Thank you
