Re: Letter before claim from DCB legal

There is nothing to “acknowledge” service of. When you receive
an N1SDT Claim Form from the CNBC, you will acknowledge service
of that.
There’s no rush. You have 19 days from the “issue” date of the
claim to acknowledge service. By acknowledging service, you then
have 33 days from the “issue” date of the claim to submit your
defence.
Before any claim is issued, DCB Legal have to respond to your
letter that you have just sent as it has some questions that
require answering.

Hi, I see thank you for the information. I was quite confused as
to whether the letter from DCB legal was an official letter
before claim or not, but I will wait to see if and when they
reply to the letter

This is the response to the email I sent to DCB Legal :
The parking charge was been issued as per the Contract. A
charge of £70.00 has been added to the sum as per the
contractual costs outlined on the signs, as our Client has had
to go to the expense of instructing debt collection agencies to
recover the debt. Had you of paid as per the Contract, there
would have been no need for recovery action so the amount due
would not have increased.
Please note, the HMRC ‘VAT Supply and Consideration manual’
(VATSC06140), which was last updated on 02 September 2020,
confirmed that Parking Charge Notices fall out of the scope of
VAT.
You now have 30 days from the date of this email to make payment
of £510.00. Failure to make payment may result in a Claim being
issued against you without any further reference.
Payment can be made via bank transfer to our designated client
account: -
You must quote the correct case reference (--) when making
payment. If you do not, we may be unable to correctly allocate
the payment. If further action is taken by us as a result of an
incorrect reference being quoted, you will be liable for any
further fees or costs incurred.

All boilerplate stuff. Where did this alleged contravention take
place? The name of the car park?
Can you get a clear phot of the signs with the terms at the
location? They are claiming that the signs included mention of
the £70 fee. We know it is a lie that it cost them £70 to engage
a debt collector when they in fact operate on a no-win, no-fee
basis. The governments own analysis of their costs in the Impact
Statement issued earlier this year show that on average, it
costs the PPCs less than £9 per claim (not per PCN) in recovery
costs.
Anyway, a phot of the signs would help if possible.
With regards to their mendacious statement about VAT, you should
report them to HMRC for suspected VAT fraud. There is no
comeback and it takes literally minutes to do so online here:
HTML https://www.gov.uk/report-tax-fraud
Whilst the PCN is non-VATable, any debt recovery fee is
definitely liable to VAT and they have not answered the second
question asked in your response to their LoC.
You can tell that you are dealing with intellectually
malnourished individuals by this little bit in their response:

You are now waiting for the N1SDT claim form to arrive from the
CNBC. When it does, show us the Particulars of Claim (PoC) and
the issue date and we will provide guidance on the next step
which will be the Acknowledgement of Service (AoS) and any
deadlines.

to any as I am only the RK of the vehicle and did not know
anything about it.

Hello,
i received a claim form on 10 December. Apologies I have been so
busy that I only saw the claim form a day or two before
Christmas. I have done the AoS on 22 December and I think I need
to submit my defence very soon?
I will post the PoC in a few hours. I haven’t been able to go to
the location in question to check the signage but I can do that
this week. Please could you advise when I need to file a defence
by

It's the issue date on the front of the form that we need to
know, not the actual date you received it.
What is the issue date?
