Claim form received from Thames Water through Moriarty Law

[Prinzo]

I need help responding to this particulars of claim “ The claimant is a water and sewerage undertaker licenced under the water industry act 1991(ACT). The claimants charges are statutory charges payable under sections 142-144 of the act and the claimants charges scheme.
The defendant owes the claimant xxxxx for the provision of waste and/or water services to the defendant at the supply address xxxxxxxx in respect of the period from xxxxx to xxxxxx”

In your own words, why do you disagree with that?

[Prinzo]

Did not receive any bill during that period and the claim does not have my full name.

[atticus]

Have you offered to pay?

Are the parts of your name that have been given sufficient to identify you accurately?

No, I have not offered to pay, there’s no way to know whether the charges are accurate or not, don’t know if the premises are metered or unmetered.

Could but that’s not the name on most of my bills, documents etc.

I have acknowledged the Claim and deny all, yet to submit defence.

Do a) b) and c) in post 7.

Also, establish how they are billing you, no doubt the SAR information will have that info.

This is the response I had from Moriarty Law.

This is the response I had from Moriarty Law.

a) What requests have you sent them post 6? from (a), (b) and (c)

b) So all they have sent is a letter, is that correct?

The CPR for the small claims track allows you to request CPR 31.14, the documents they have used to file the case against you. So I'm not sure what they are talking about.

You need to make a formal complaint against Moriarty Law as they have breached the Solicitors Code of Conduct by misleading you in that letter (but don't do this yet).

Sent request (b) to Moriarty Law and the response is the letter posted with the postal order for £1 attached.
