Parking eye claim form

Options
I got a Claim Form in the post from DCB legal for almost £1000 for 4 parking tickets which happened in early 2021.

I am following the instructions to apeal via the governemnt gateway website and send a defence etc.

I have also written a complaint to PALS and the car park team at the hospital.

Is there anything else I should be doing?

    Post the issue date from the top right of the claim form below 

    Post the date that you completed the AOS online below too

    Post a redacted picture of the bottom half of the claim form below,  after hiding your VRM details on the left and also hide the password on the right

    You will be defending,  not appealing

    The state of the POC (sparse) means that you can use Chan & Akande in your defence, shown in the new template.

    Yes - and as there are 4 PCN dates, the Defence should point out that these could be for 4 completely different matters but nothing has been specified. Could be one alleged for parking out of a bay, one alleged overstay, one could be an allegation of failure to pay & display and one could be not being permitted. The Defendant and court should not have to guess. This POC clearly fails to meet the requirements of Part 16 and the claim should be struck out.

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
