HMCTS Letter - Fake or Real?

cueball1966

Hi There

My Daughter has received a letter apparently from the HMCTS but there is no PoC on it and it doesn't look very cosha. Could somebody help or advise as to it's legitimacy or can it be ignored. She has been chased for an alleged parking offence with many letters over the course of the last 2 years which she had ignored up to this letter. Any help or advice would be really appreciated 👍

That is realt its a default judgment 
Did she get the original claim form

She's ignored all letters that have come previously

Then she has shot herself in the foot by ignoring a court claim

You could phone the Civil Business Centre with the claim reference from the top right (probably should have obscured it from the photo) and check its legitimate. 

They've listed the correct telephone number for them, which would be a bit foolish for someone sending out fake documents.

No need.
It ia genuine

As above,  it's genuine, it's a default CCJ due to not replying to the N1SDT claim form pack they sent last month or thereabouts 

Pay it this month,  in full, to avoid a CCJ giving credit file issues 

Never ignore a claim form

there is a train of thought that they may be open to negotiation on the balance payable.  DCB Legal certainly are but i have no knowledge if BW Legal are (and the CCJ still removed in full)

Thanks, I now remember you mentioning it in a DCB Legal thread recently,  probably worth the defendant trying to negotiate with B W Legal for a lower settlement figure,  but they may want full payment
