My son has no defense DCB Euro Carparks letter of claim

savings4me

Hi, I've been helping son through his "dealings" with DCB legal - following guidance here, we have ended up at the N1SDT form

Date 19/03/26

Acknowledged 26/3/26

Their reason is ; No valid pay and display/permit was purchased.

He didn't buy a ticket as he obviously didn't read the signs - he says he thought it was a free car park.

It was VRN recognition .

I've gone through numerous threads here but I can't find any where the driver just didn't read the blumin' signs!!

This is not his first time and we have a second N1SDT claim form come through - for a different car park. Again, he can't have read the signs properly and didn't buy a ticket.

He was waiting for his autism and adhd diagnosis's at the time but don't want to go down that route. Although, some comments here is that no-one will read the defense, but then other comments are this is a legal document and everything had to be the truth.

Can we be vague with the truth? ie write a paragraph 3 which will allude to the signage being poor - although i'm not sure it was?

Thanks for reading

Just use the template defence and add the generic paragraph 3, like the ones denying the POC and contains the word Contravention, same as dozens of other cases on here over the last 9 months

Forget about the circumstances

The claim will end up discontinued before the hearing date, REGARDLESS OF FACTS, POOR DEFENCE OR NOT!

So when he gets the Claim Form he just uses the Template Defence. Easy!

Just play the game:

He will then just 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'.

What we do collect are pictures of the Notices of Discontinuance for Umkomaas' thread, so we'll see you again in the Winter when you strut proudly back here to confirm his discontinuance ( = his win)!

Thank you all.

Is it something like the 04 May 2026? I'm not sure what the calculation is….. Anyway, I'll do it before the end of the month - don't want to do them both at the same time!

I have also told my son to pay his bloody parking!
