Need help with how to proceed with appealing Napier Parking Parking Charge letter

Solarjunkie

Just got this message - yay! There do seem to be reasonable people checking things over. What a relief.

(I had spent 6 minutes trying to find the blue badge spaces in an unfamiliar car park, which I didn't leave)

That's good news.

They should never have issued the PCN.

In regards to the email I've sent 5 days ago to BW Legal in response to their Letter of Claim, I sent it through to 4 different @bwlegal email addresses.

Should I expect an actual reply of some sorts or will that not happen?

Thanks

Afternoon all.

Was overjoyed to find when I came home from work not long ago that I have received in the post today the claim form/pack from the Courts!

I guess I'll head online shortly and do the acknowledgement of service on MCOL, and then I suppose start getting my template of defence drafted up also.

Oh and as per my previous post, I suppose it's normal behaviour to have not received any acknowledgment or reply to my email response to their Letter of Claim??

Thanks

Post a redacted picture of the POC from the lower left of the claim form below after hiding the VRM details first

Do nothing apart from the 2 items above

Do the AOS online stage on MCOL next Tuesday or later next week

Adapt the template defence in announcements

With an issue date of 13/05/26 and providing you complete(d) the AoS after 18/05/26 and before or on 01/06/26 your defence deadline date is 4.00 p.m. on 15/06/26

Ok so like I explained at the very start of this post with me being a complete newbie to this whole process, I have jumped the gun a bit with the MCOL part, as I already have completed the AOS not long after receiving the pack on 15/5.

I did not realise I should have left it 5 days after the issue date, to then do the AOS, as I gathered regardless it would be counted as 'served' from 18/5. My fault as I did not read thoroughly through the start of AOS acknowledgement on the template defence post. Idiot I know 🤦🏻

So I guess I have now slightly reduced my timeframe to submit the defence, correct?? I'm assuming I have now until 4pm 12/6??

Doesn't matter.

Easy to defend. No need to delay!
