       Appeal rejected for PCN from Buckingham street car park
       Birmingham

       Hi,
       I have appealed against PCN for not displaying the ticket
       properly as the ticked flipped due to bad weather and not
       visible to them and it was rejected by the parking operator
       saying you have not followed the terms and conditions.So I have
       raised it to POPLA and it also got rejected with same reason for
       not complying with terms and conditions.Should I wait for them
       to send a formal recovery notice? I’m not sure what else I can
       do to fight against them as I have paid and shown the
       proof.Please guide me the next action I should take on this.

       You will just have to wait now. You will get letters from a debt
       recovery agent, but these can be ignored. Ultimately you will
       get a letter of claim (which will be more detailed and give 30
       days to pay). Come back when you get this. After that they will
       probably register it at the small claims court, but it be easily
       defended - when you get this come back and ask, as what it says
       and how you respond is important. Presumably your V5 address is
       up to date and the parking co have your correct address? If not
       you need to rectify this with them, otherwise you are on a short
       path to getting a default judgement and then CCJ.

       It was a waste of time appealing. Nothing to worry about though.
       The POPLA decision has absolutely no bearing on anything going
       forward.
       What do you imagine a "formal recovery notice" is? The next
       stage is going to a bunch of debt collector letters with a fake
       £70 added. Ignore those. The debt collectors are powerless to
       actually do anything except try and scare the low-hanging fruit
       on the gullible tree to capitulate and pay up. Never, ever,
       ever, communicate with a useless debt collector. Use their
       correspondence to line the bottom of a litter tray or some other
       use.
       What is going to eventually happen, is that you will receive a
       Letter of Claim (LoC), usually issued through one of several
       possible bulk litigators. Most likely DCB Legal (not to be
       confused either their debt collecting arm, DCBL), Gladstones or
       BW Legal.
       An LoC will give you 30 days to pay, not 14 like all the debt
       collector rubbish. I should be responded to, but if you don't,
       it is no big deal. If you get one, show us and we'll provide a
       suitable response.
       Eventually, they will issue an N1SDT claim form through the
       CNBC. That has to be responded to. Again, when you receive it,
       show us the Particulars of Claim (PoC) and we can provide the
       necessary defence and instructions on how to do the
       Acknowledgement of Service (AoS).
       These claims are easily defended and in the vast majority of
       cases, they never even get as far as a hearing as they are
       usually discontinued before the claimant has to pay the trial
       fee. That or they are struck out because of their defective PoC.
       Of the very few that actually get as far as a hearing, most are
       won (which is why they discontinue before paying the trial fee).
       Any questions, feel free to ask.

       I have received a letter to pay the fine £100 from the parking
       company.
       I heard PCN goes to the CCJ and you lose it will affect your
       credit score.Do I need to worry about that?

       Why do you think an unregulated private company can "fine" you?
       I will personally give you £100 for every occurrence of the word
       "fine" you can find in your correspondence.
       What is this "letter" you are talking about. Either fully
       describe it or show it to us please.
       What do you think you mean by "I heard PCN goes to the CCJ and
       you lose it will affect your credit score."?
       Nothing "goes to CCJ". We should not advise anything that will
       result in a CCJ. You cannot get a CCJ unless you are sued by the
       parking company, you lose the claim and then you don't pay the
       judgment amount. You can't just "get a CCJ" out of the blue
       unless you ignore a whole amount of correspondence and then
       ignore the judgment.
       Even if you did get a CCJ, as long as it is paid within 30 days
       of judgment, it is expunged from the record.
       The odds of this case even getting as far as a hearing are very
       slim.
       As far as I was aware, you are past any appeal stage. You can
       safely ignore any debt collector letters. Come back if/when you
       receive an N1SDT Claim Form issued through the CNBC.

       With an issue date of 29th May, you have until 4pm on Tuesday
       17th June to submit your defence. If you submit an

       Otherwise, here is the defence and link to the draft order that

       signature and date it. There is nothing to edit in the draft
       order.
       When you're ready you combine both documents as a single PDF
       attachment and send as an attachment in an email to
       claimresponses.cnbc@justice.gov.uk and CC in yourself. The claim

       Defendant asserts that there is no liability to the Claimant and

       > (c) The PoC do not adequately set out the reason (or reasons)
       why the claimant asserts the defendant has breached the contract
       (or contracts)

       exactly where the breach occurred, the exact time when the
       breach occurred and how long it is alleged that the vehicle was
       parked before the parking charge was allegedly incurred;

       > (e) The PoC do not state precisely how the sum claimed is
       calculated, including the basis for any statutory interest,
       damages, or other charges;

       parking charge and what proportion is damages;

       > (g) The PoC do not provide clarity on whether the Defendant is
       sued as the driver or the keeper of the vehicle, as the claimant
       cannot plead alternative causes of action without
       specificity.[/indent]
       >
       > 4. The Defendant attaches to this defence a copy of a draft
       order approved by a district judge at another court. The court
       struck out the claim of its own initiative after determining
       that the Particulars of Claim failed to comply with CPR 16.4.
       The judge noted that the claimant had failed to:
       >
       > [indent](i) Set out the exact wording of the clause (or
       clauses) of the terms and conditions relied upon;
       >
       > (ii) Adequately explain the reasons why the defendant was
       allegedly in breach of contract;
       >
       > (iii) Provide separate, detailed Particulars of Claim as
       permitted under CPR PD 7C.5.2(2).
       >
       > (iv) The court further observed that, given the modest sum
       claimed, requiring further case management steps would be
       disproportionate and contrary to the overriding objective.
       Accordingly, the judge struck out the claim outright rather than
       permitting an amendment.[/indent]
       >
       > 5. The Defendant submits that the same reasoning applies in
       this case and invites the court to adopt a similar approach by
       striking out the claim for the Claimant’s failure to comply with
       CPR 16.4.
