Response to LBC after following all the information on Newbie thread

dhanepud

Hello

I have followed lots of threads in this forum and compiled thorough notes. I am now seeking advice to help to review the response to LBC.

LBC from Select Parking Ltd

Agent: Credit Investigating Services

Facts:

• Got PCN of GBP 170
• I only took U-turn without actually parking my car or used any parking bays
• Ignored all the previous letters as per forum advice
• LBC doesnt include a reply form and information sheet
• LBC gives 30 days

Response based on Newbie sticky thread, can you please check if this is fine and

"

Dear Sirs,

Re: Proposed Letter Before Claim – Select Parking Limited

I refer to your Letter Before Claim dated XXX.

The alleged debt is disputed in its entirety and any court proceedings will be thoroughly defended.

I deny liability for the alleged parking charge and make no admission as to the identity of the driver or that any contractual liability arose.

In particular, I dispute your client's allegation that the vehicle was parked in breach of the alleged terms and conditions. Your letter provides no evidence establishing the alleged breach.

I note that your Letter Before Claim does not appear to have been accompanied by the Reply Form and Information Sheet required under the Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims.

Please therefore revert to your client and confirm that the alleged debt is disputed. If your client nevertheless intends to proceed, it should provide the evidence upon which it intends to rely in support of the claim.

I reserve all rights and defences.

Yours faithfully,

"

"Re: Proposed Letter Before Claim". What do you mean by "proposed"? From what you've said, it is an actual LBC, not a proposed one.

yes indeed the header says Letter before claim, many thanks for spotting. I will change the email subject to:

"Regarding Letter Before Claim – Select Parking Limited"

From the rest of the email , should I add the bold part in the email or not :

In particular, I dispute your client's allegation that the vehicle was parked in breach of the alleged terms and conditions. Your letter provides no evidence establishing the alleged breach.

and;

If your client nevertheless intends to proceed, it should provide the evidence upon which it intends to rely in support of the claim.

The one thing you haven't done is post on the right board, I'll ask for the thread to be moved to the Parking Tickets sub-board.

Yes, I have used the 'Reported' button to move it to the correct subforum. Sincere apologies.

Have a read of the “Newbies” post on the first page.

Can someone please guide me

1. Is it ok to include highlighted section in my post ?
2. Shall I ask for records and evidence? So far in none of the letters they havent provided any details of images, in/out, parked pictures (because i didnt, i just took u turn)
3. Shall I give my defence (U turn & not parked) in the response to LBC ?

Many thanks

Study post 2 in the newbies sticky thread in announcements near the top of the forum, email the LoC response template to whoever issued the Letter of Claim ( presumably C I S ? )
