    Discontinued in 6 months or so, before the hearing. Please please DON'T show us DCB Legal's reply. Seen it a hundred times!

    Follow the 8 steps.

    Merry Christmas!

    Just an update for this one.

    Had mediation today. They offered £250 initially and I countered that with 50p.

    They then came back with the original charge plus Court costs, which I rejected.

    They also said that they had never seen the proof of payment (which I sent with the appeal very early on) and that if I send a copy to them, they will consider if this claim progresses.

    Send it or ignore?

    I would send it, they may discontinue early doors. ! It also shows that you are reasonable

    Send it if you like. They'll discontinue anyway, in the end so you could send it and say at the end "hurry up and discontinue or I'll claim my costs in full".

    "Had mediation today. They offered £250 initially and I countered that with 50p." - that made me chuckle. Congratulations! 😁

    I'm a random person on the internet. I hold no legal qualifications and nothing I say is advice.

    @steevie_b Thank you for the copy of your NoD. I can now count your result in the infamous DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
