                    Hello,
I know there is a lot of information already here but I am struggling to pull together the comments to know how to file a defence against DCBL for parking fines….
went to a local pub in sept 2021 during some covid restrictions, didn’t know you had to know log your registration and didn’t set foot inside the pub as it was table service. Received parking fine, rang the pub they said nip down and we’ll cancel it off our system, unfortunately or stupidly ran over the free 30 mins whilst waiting which resulted in another parking fine… same thing went down to the pub, landlord laughed and said no problem I’ll cancel it. Haven’t heard anything since until July this year, with DCBL threatening to take me to court over two fines in sept 2021!

Please can someone help me with the correct wording for a defence because I really do not want to pay these old fines! Thank you

            1. It's not a fine
 2. read the newbies thread
 3. follow the advice and they will discontinue
 4. ask the pub to get them to cancel the PCN1

            Name the private parking company ( I assume that it's a claim by DCB Legal )
 Post the Issue date from the top right of the claim form below
 Post the date that you have the AOS online on MCOL
 Use the template defence by coupon mad in announcements to draft your defence1
