    Popla aside, don't be paying.
    Euro cases all end up with DCB Legal, who make court claims and then discontinue.
    I would never bother with Popla with this lot because it's less work to defend a balsa wood court claim from DCB Legal.
  • Thank you so much Frank for showing this, I have copied and pasted it on the POPLA decision page.  My apologies everyone I assumed when you said paragraphs it was the exact format in which it was sent (i.e 2 paragraphs) with breaks in between these 2!!  Thank you all for your patients.  Now I have had a letter from Debt Recovery Plus for urgent payment by 23/10 2025  and is threatening that CCJ can be issued against me.  I'll be abroad for a few weeks from tomorrow, if they do send court documents how long does this normally take? I don't want to miss replying back and requesting a hearing.  Thank you all again.
