Hi Gurus,
I need some advice. I have a county court claim for an unpaid PCN issued June 2018
The particulars of the claim are:
"The Driver of the vehicle with registration ****** parked in breach of the terms of parking stipulated on the signage (the contract) at WELLINGTON PLACE - WELLINGTON PLACE WELLINGTON WAY LONDON E3 4XL ........on 16/06/2018 thus incurring the parking charge (PCN). The driver of the vehicle agreed to pay the PCN within 28 days of issue yet failed to do so. The claimant claims the unpaid PCN from the defendant as the driver/keeper of the vehicle. Despite the demands being made, the defendant has failed to settle their outstanding liability. The claimant claims £100 for the PCN, £60 contractual costs pursuant to the contract and the PCN terms and conditions, together with the statutory interest of £16.92 pursuant to the s69 of the county courts act 1984 at 8.00% per annum, continuing at £0.04 per day."
The letter says at the back "IF YOU DISAGREE WITH THE CLAIM OR IF YOU WANT MAKE A CLAIM AGAINST THE CLAIMANT(COUNTER CLAIM) : You must send either the completed acknowledgement of service form or defence form to the court 14 days of the date of service. If you send the acknowledgement of service you must send a defence to court to arrive no later than 28 days from the date of service." (Court Letter issue date: 11 Nov 2019)
Claimant is UK CAR MANAGEMENT LTD (CPM) address and sending documents and payment : Gladstones Solicitors LTD, Warrinton Road, WA16 6AA.
Some details of that parking by me: I parked on Wellington Way on a single yellow line at 21:14 which controlled by tower hamlet council. Off Wellington way there are some flats with some parking bays which managed by CPM. I never parked on those bays. On pictures it clearly shows I parked on single yellow line on the road. I have explained this on my appeal but they refused my appeal on 21 August 2018 and demanded £100 as they said I didn't appeal within 14 days which was not correct. I appealed on 19/06/18 (have post office receipt with their postcode). CPM didn't respond my appeal and sent me a formal demand letter then I called them and asked them why didn't respond to my appeal, they said they didn't receive my appeal.However I appealed again on 24/07/2018 (have post office receipt with their postcode) and got response on 21 August 2018 which I mentioned earlier. I then got quiet and I dont know if they have sent any letters to me.
I really want some step by step guidance on this court matter, I am already shaking when I saw this letter. Never been in this situation. I cant pay this £251, will the police will come and take me away? Can't sleep tonite, one of my friend told me about you guys. any help will be much appreciated. If you need any other info please let me know.
best regards
