Re: Civil Enfocement letter Aka: ce-sevice.co.uk

I suggest you send the following letter to Civil Enforcement
Ltd:
[quote]
[center]URGENT[/center]
Dear Sirs,
CIVIL ENFORCEMENT LIMITED (THE ‘CLAIMANT’) V [your full name]
CLAIM REFERENCE H3GM80Q8
On 24th October 2024, I received the attached letter dated 13th
October 2024 from yourselves. This came as a tremendous shock as
it is the first and only communication I have received from your
company or any organisation representing you in relation to this
claim.
I made immediate enquiries of the CNBC from which I was able to
establish that:
[indent]1. the claim relates to an alleged parking event in
March 2019;
2. the claim form was sent to an old address at which I no
longer reside; and
3. if I had been given the opportunity to do so, I would have
successfully defended the claim.[/indent]
I did not receive any pre-claim correspondence, not even a
letter of claim as required by the PAP. Nor did I receive the
claim form or any particulars of claim and was thus deprived of
the ability to defend the claim. Your company is well aware that
people move home from time to time. You also know that I did not
respond to any communications sent to me at my old address.
This situation is explicitly dealt with in the Civil Procedure
Rules which provide at CPR 6.9(3):
[indent](3) Where a claimant has reason to believe that the
address of the defendant ... is an address at which the
defendant no longer resides or carries on business, the claimant
must take reasonable steps to ascertain the address of the
defendant’s current residence or place of business (‘current
address’).[/indent]
As your company is a member of the British Parking Association
(the ‘BPA’) and is bound by the BPA’s Code of Practice which
gives voice to CPR 6.9(3) in the following terms:
[indent]24.1c Before serving a Letter Before Claim and prior to
the issue of proceedings, Operators must, if no responses have
been received to the NtD/NtK/reminder letters, take reasonable
endeavours to ensure that the contact details for the person you
are writing to are correct.[/indent]
If your company had taken the actions required by the Civil
Procedure Rules and the Code of Practice, my current address
would have been found easily, which is obviously what you did
before sending your letter dated 13th October 2024. If those
actions had been performed at the correct time rather than after
judgment, I would not have been deprived of the ability to
defend the claim.
By reason of Civil Enforcement's breach of the Civil Procedure
Rules, which amounts to an abuse of the process of the Court,
the claim form was never properly served and the judgment must
be set aside at your expense and the claim dismissed because it
is now too late for the particulars of claim to be re-served.
In view of the foregoing, I invite Civil Enforcement Ltd to join
with me in an application to set aside the judgment and dismiss
the claim, with Civil Enforcement Ltd paying the court fee and
no order as to costs.
Please respond to the above offer as soon as possible so that,
if the offer is acceptable to you, we can work together to right
the wrong that Civil Enforcement has done to me.
To give you a reasonable time to take instructions and for us to
agree a suite of documents for the Court, I am willing to defer
making a unilateral application to set aside the judgment until
4 pm on Wednesday 13th November 2024. If a joint application has
not been made by that time, I intend to instruct a solicitor to
apply to the Court unilaterally for an order setting the
judgment aside, striking out the particulars of claim,
dismissing the claim and awarding costs against Civil
Enforcement Ltd on a full indemnity basis.
Pease respond by immediate return.
Yours faithfully,[/quote]
Use this link to submit the letter (plus a copy of the 13th
October letter) as PDF files:
HTML https://www.ce-service.co.uk/submit-a-complaint/
Just state in the "details" section: "Please refer to the
attached urgent letter".
Let's see their response, if any, when it arrives. If they
agree, do not do anything before we see their suggested draft
order. It is crucial that we check it before agreeing as it
would not be the first time a defendant had been bamboozled by
surreptitious wording.

You can check the last date that the V5C was updated by checking
the bottom of the inside pages for this:

So what was the date your V5C was last updated.
Also, are you suggesting that it is possible that the claim was
sent to the correct address at the time but your partner may
have withheld or concealed it from you?
Can you evidence that the you were not residing at the address
the claim was sent to at that time?

OK, so the address they used was the previous address before the
V5C was updated.
