Yes of course. Phone the CCBC and ask them.

You could also ask them to reset your MCOL login details.

Fab, thank you. I will do tomorrow. Your prompt help is most appreciated :T!

perhaps the claimant sent it ?

have you had one from Northampton CCBC yet ?

read the NEWBIES FAQ thread, post #2 again, and read the BARGEPOLE advice he posted over 2 years ago

I didn't receive anything from the Northampton CCBC regarding a DQ. By the looks of it, this is from Parking Eye trying to pressurise me?

Should I assume that the fact that they are filling this form means that they are taking the court route?

I am sorry but I am struggling a little bit in finding the bit to do with the Directions Questionnaire in post #2.

Is it the link to thread below from bargepole explaining the process?

Did you read that post you linked to?

Does it give any clues at all on how to deal with a Directions Questionnaire?

Yes, I did and it did give good information.

3. Court looks at claim and defence and makes a provisional allocation to the small claims track and sends the parties a Directions Questionnaire. When both parties have filled these in, the court will then send the claim out to the Defendant's local court (PPCs often ask for it to be sent to THEIR local court but the rules are that it must go to Defendant's local court; PPCs also often argue for no hearing and for it to be dealt with on paper, but you object to that and ask for a hearing).


and on https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=5504705&page=4 post #68 I found the following by IamEmanresu

You wait for the DQ from the court and this is how you fill it out. If the DQ does not arrive within a week, check with the court.

Quote:
Filling out the form

A1 = Say NO to mediation (they want the whole amount, you want to pay them nothing, so no scope for mediation. This will not go against you). Mediation is run by a commercial company on behalf of the courts and their success is measured by how many cases are kept out of court. They are not interested in the merits of the case, only whether you will pay or not. So say No.

B = fill in all the details, your name, your address, etc. This is the address that all the paperwork will be sent to. If you are moving home within 6 months make sure you have mail redirection in place. You will get a default CCJ if the paperwork doesn't get to you as the Courts see it as your responsibility to give a correct address.

C1 = YES to small claims track – this is the limited costs track for claims up to £10,000 in value

D1 = name of your local County Court – unless you are a Limited company, the case files will be transferred there. They will ask for theirs but protocol dictates it is your court. For example, MIL Collections always asks for Truro and Devere Parking always ask for Bournemouth. You, literally, do not want to go there.

D2 = NO to expert evidence (this relates to medical negligence cases and suchlike)

D3 = 1 witness (that’s you) (or more if you are going to get another person to provide a statement)

D4 = Put down the dates of any pre-booked holidays, NO to interpreter (unless you need one)

You send a copy to the courts and another copy to the Claimant company. Keep a copy for yourself. As mentioned before, there is a long delay (20+ weeks) between this form and an actual day in court.

Since you quoted the two items in your previous post, I was trying to find the post which contained that assuming that you wanted me to read a specific post with perhaps more detail. Sorry not trying to bother you for no good reason. If this is all I need to know for the DQ, I will wait for it to come through.

I see that the post above talks about the DQ coming in a week. Is that from the submission of defence because I submitted my defence a month back.
