    Sounds like it was transferred to the wrong court. Did your choice of court also start with a C?

    Email AND ring Canterbury Court next week (not yet) once they have the file, and tell them this is an allocation error, etc.

    How lovely. Ignore them. Or for fun, take the call and tell them to F off & get a real job.

    Did you complain & get the case sent to your court now?

    yeah I called the court but they said there is nothing they can do currently as the case is being reviewed. Said I need to call back once it goes to the next stage and they might be able to move it then. They fully acknowledged what I put on the paperwork though and there is just about every court in the wider radius of London between me and where they have allocated me.
