Claim form judgement

Hi all 

I had received to a claim form. I replied to the claim form, following the steps in the newbies thread. I even have proof that I replied to the claim form, i did it online

Today I received a letter from the court saying I have not replied to the claim form and are saying I must pay £283. Then there is a note saying that if I dispute this judgement, I have to apply to the court office giving my reasons as to why the judgement should be set aside. And that this will incur a fee!!

Has anyone had experience of this before? 

In the next few days I was planning to submit my defence and did not expect this!

    It happened many times in the summer to emailed defences, ( and other emails  )  hence why we recommend direct entry on MCOL instead these days 

    Have a look at the complaints back in june and july 

    Email a complaint to claim progression,  with a copy plus time and date of their email auto response if you emailed a defence to the correct email address ( I hope that you didn't post it  ?  )

    Mark the email complaint URGENT,  MISSING DOCUMENTS,  insist on a free set aside if it was the defence   ?

    Or , by replied,  do you mean that you did the AOS online   ?  But not submitted the defence yet  ?

    If its the latter, login to MCOL and copy and paste your claim history below Please 

    Post the Issue date from the top right of the claim form too, and the date that you completed the AOS stage online

    What does your MCOL say? Does it show your AOS was submitted?
