  • Incorrect defence - Cabot

    Hi
    I received a letter stating that mortimer Clarke on behalf of Cabot were seeking a CCJ against me in early jan (the 9th I believe) my husband has been dealing with it all and we were ready to submit our defence tonight which he was confident in as he had sought a lot of help but when we logged in online it appears that instead of just acknowledge the claim I submitted a poor defence completely in error. Is there anyway we can change this or have I completely messed this up
    thanks in advance

    Oops ! You must have carried on past the acknowledgment part and typed something in the defence part - can you see what you put ? It may not be as bad as you think - can you give a little background to the case too please to see if you can try submitting the proper defence by email / post with an explanation or if you'll need to formally apply to amend.

      Hi
      thanks for your response.

      My husband has been dealing with it for me so I am a little naive to it all. Basically Mortimer Clarke and Cabot are claiming for a fashion world balance which I do not believe I owe. It dates back around 3 years and I believed it was clwar
      and I have not received any correspondence until the ccj letter. We can see the defence and it says

      I believe that I cleared the balance with Fashion World and as I
      did not receive any statements from them I was not aware of any outstanding balance due

      we have written a full defence which explains why we are disputing every point of the claim we are (my husband sought a lot of advice)

      thanks
