I received a claim from via MCOL in August.
The claimant is someone I know through my business who I provided a service to over a year ago, I do NOT owe this person money.
Anyway, the claim form provided no Particulars apart from 'the claimant wishes to claim interest under section *** at a rate of *** per day'
After some free over the phone advice, I sent my aos and ticked the defense box along with a letter to the court manager asking if he/she thought necessary to request the claimant provide me with the missing poc's within 7 days or the claim could be considered by the court to be struck out. I also stated I wished to protect my right to defend should the claimant provide the missing information. I also menti9ned I had no idea what the claimant was claiming for as I have received no form of pressure action conduct. Just so you all know, I know this person does is using the MCOL to try scare or provoke me, I owe no money and they have no legitimate reason for claiming other than to cause mischief.
I haven't heard anything back from the court or the claimant regarding the Particulars and the time for my defence has expired by a week or so...I checked the progress online and it states they received my aos in good time therefor they would have received the letter I sent with it..
How long do you think I will have to wait before I hear anything?
I'm really hoping the claim does get struck out without any further hassle for me..I really have done nothing wrong.
The claimant couldn't even be bothered to address me by my full name on the form it just screams absolute ridiculousness!
