I thought this was over but I guess not as I have just received this after a few months later… What form of action do I need to take now?

You could either ignore them, or email the LoC response template in the 2nd post in the newbies sticky thread in announcements near the top of the forum

Dear Sirs,

Your ref: [insert reference number]

Proposed legal proceedings

Claimant: [insert name of parking company]

I refer to your letter of claim.

I confirm that my address for service for the time being is as follows, and any older address must be erased from your records:

[Insert correct address here]

You should revert to your client because the 'propensity to pay' score in my case is zero, so any claim is hopeless and a waste of the court fee (whether 'fronted' by your firm or not). Move on to weaker victims.

The alleged 'debt' is disputed and any court proceedings will be vigorously defended.

Yours faithfully,

So Is it this I have to send to Bwlegal, with some changes of words of course so it doesn't look like a copy/paste job? Im also guessing there will be a high chance of going to court after this as well.

It's not necessarily going to court.

These are all no-win-no-fee DRAs and legals and each second class template letter costs them about a quid. These are fired out automatically in batches.

Your case has not been reviewed so there's no suggestion really that one LBC is more likely to lead to a court claim.

Hope you've stopped asking on Reddit!

What was the PCN for? Are you a resident there?

Parked in a bay where? Are you a resident there or was it a shopping centre or town centre car park?
