K so if I have read this right, ignore all letters from DCA cause they are scumbags and then if and when I get a letter of claim I can use the template of defence on MOL?

Not quite 

1) The Letter of Claim giving you 30 days notice will be from the claimant parking company,  or from their lawyers,  by post, you respond using the LoC template response in the newbies sticky thread,  second post,  usually by email,  sometimes by a different online method such as a webform 

2) A Money Claim is made using MCOL and the CNBC in Northampton post an N1SDT claim form pack to you containing various forms and instructions.  You would adapt the template defence and use your final defence draft on MCOL 

2 entirely different things, different stages, different responses , not the same 

1) comes before 2) typically with a 2 month gap between them
