It was my car and I paid for the parking. I did not drive it on the day, although I was a passenger. I'm not sure how else to word it "... to cover the period for which the Defendant intended for their vehicle to be parked"... unless the suggestion is to remove reference that parking was paid for?

Oh so the argument is that there was never a contract to pay the PC. In which case I will leave 4 as it stands because as I now understand it, the defence is against the PC and not in defence of a breach of the contract to park. My goodness, the wording can catch you.

How about something like

the Defendant paid for parking using their mobile phone, to cover the full period for which the Driver intended to park their vehicle.

Or

the Defendant was an occupant of the vehicle and paid for parking using their mobile phone, to cover the full period for which the Driver intended to park their vehicle.

Para 2 as before. Para 3 now as below:

3. The Defendant denies all claims made by the Claimant. The Defendant is not indebted to the Claimant. The Defendant did not receive a PC for the alleged contravention. The Defendant while being the RK, was not the driver, and is not liable and has seen no evidence of a breach of prominent terms.  The sum sought by C is hugely exaggerated and there were no damages incurred. On the date in question, the Defendant paid for parking using their mobile phone, to cover the period for which the Driver intended to park the vehicle.

Everything else using the template response provided. Wish me luck.

Oh forgot I was meant to remove "intended" so will say ..."... to cover the period for which the Driver parked the vehicle".

Does that work ?

Seems like a good statement to me

You don't need luck!

The claim will end up discontinued before the hearing this year.

Just play the game:

Follow the easy 8 steps covered in the Template Defence sticky thread. No link is needed to that Announcement, or to the NEWBIES FAQS thread - which you must also read post 2 of, especially the red heading IMPORTANT: KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN'. It is very easy.

See my signature below if you need a steer about how to hop straight to page one. This could not be easier once you bookmark the Template Defence thread to follow the 8 steps through.

We don't want to know about DCB Legal's reply to your defence, nor the DQ, nor questions about Mediation (all are covered).

What we do collect are pictures of the Notices of Discontinuance for Umkomaas' thread, so we'll see you again in the Summer/Autumn when you strut proudly back here with your win!

Ok it's been nearly 4 weeks and I've not received my DQ... should I be worried? Should I have downloaded and sent it already?

What did receive was a letter confirming my Defence had been received and forwarded to the Claimant. Nothing since then.
