PRA sent letter dated 05/04/23 which I have now viewed, stating the following;

"My name is Morag and I'm contacting you from the Customer Support Team at PRA Group. We're friendly and have lots of experience dealing with people who have all kinds of difficult, and often complex, circumstances....I want to get to know you, because it will help me to manage your account, so let me know about the things that matter to you, for example: -How you want to be contacted and when, -Any health conditions you currently have, -Other difficulties, -If you'd rather have someone else deal with this for you...." etc etc

Budget calculator form was enclosed which they wanted completing and advised options for them to explore such as affordable payment plan, lump sum settlement, breathing space or write off in exceptional circumstances. At the end of the letter they confirm will contact again on 05/05/23 if no reply received.

There is no acknowledgement of CPR request but it seems PRA are in an effort for my friend to admit liability?


Another letter dated 14/04/23 was received from County Court Business Centre to acknowledge receipt of defence, copy being served on PRA. It then states;

"If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, the claimant will inform the court that he wishes to proceed. The court will then inform you of what will happen.

Where he wishes to proceed, the claimant must contact the court within 28 days after receiving a copy of your defence. After that period has elapsed, the claim will be stayed. The only action the claimant can then take will be to apply to a judge for an order lifting the stay. "

Is there anything I need to do? respond to PRA? or just await further instructions from court?

Thank you
