The auto response (and your CC copy) are your delivery receipt.
It may actually take longer than 10 days to get a response,
especially at this time of year. Don't be surprised if it takes
longer.
The next comms you should expect it a letter from the CNBC
telling you that your defence has been passed to the claimant.
What you don't know is when the CNBC actually sent it to them.
You should also expect a letter from DCB Legal saying that they
have reviewed your defence and their client intends to proceed.
They will also include a copy of their N180DQ which you simply
file. You are waiting for your own N180DQ.
You can check your MCOL history to see when yours has been sent.
However, you can preempt that by downloading your own and
completing it online ready to save as a PDF file and attach it
to a single email which will be sent to both
dq.cnbc@justice.gov.uk and info@dcblegal.co.uk and Ccd to
yourself.
Do not send your DQ until it shows in your MCOL history that
yours has been sent. When the paper version arrives, you can bin
it as long as you have your PDF copy on your computer.
You sign it by typing your full name for the signature and make
sure that the claim number goes in the email subject field.
Here are some answers for the most commonly asked questions
about the form:

Thanks for this, I will put this together soon.
I just checked on the portal and it says "A bar has been put in
place on this claim. You cannot respond to the claim at this
time."
Issue Date is 05/12/2024 (exactly 2 weeks ago) and I already
submitted AoS and my defence, so why is there a bar?

Does the Money Claim Online (MCOL) portal also show the AoS and
defence submission dates?
The message "A bar has been put in place on this claim. You
cannot respond to the claim at this time." on the MCOL system
indicates that the claim has progressed to the next stage of the
process, and no further submissions or responses can be made by
the defendant for now.
Since you have already submitted both the Acknowledgment of
Service (AoS) and the Defence, this message usually means the
claimant is now reviewing the defence. They have 28 days from
the date the defence was served to decide whether to proceed
with the claim, withdraw, or settle.
If the claimant chooses to proceed, the case will be transferred
to your local court for the next stage, such as allocation to
the small claims track. If the claimant does not take any action
within the 28-day period, the claim will be stayed (put on
hold), and they will need to apply to the court (and pay a fee)
to resume proceedings.
This is standard procedure and nothing to worry about. At this
stage, you should monitor your MCOL account for updates and wait
for further correspondence from the court or the claimant. If
you need to take any action (e.g., complete a Directions
Questionnaire), you will be notified in due course.
Occasionally, the MCOL system may show this message due to a
technical issue, especially if the system is temporarily
restricting access for updates or internal processing. If
everything else is in order (AoS and defence submitted on time),
it might just be an anomaly.
The court may have flagged the case for administrative reasons,
such as verifying the defence submission or ensuring all
required documents are processed. This could temporarily "bar"
further responses while the court updates the status of the
claim.
Confirm that your AoS and defence were submitted within the
correct timeframes. If these were submitted late, the claimant
could have requested a bar.
You can call the MCOL helpdesk at 0300 123 1057 to clarify why
this message appears. They can provide insight into whether this
is a routine update or if further action is required.
If the defence has been correctly submitted and you are within
the timeline, the system will typically update once the
claimants 28-day period to respond elapses or they take further
action. If this message persists and you receive no updates,
document the timeline of your submissions and interactions. This
ensures you can defend against any procedural error claims by
the claimant

MCOL shows the AoS date but no mention of the defence that was
e-mailed.

I just called the MCOL helpdesk on 0300 123 1056, please note
that they have updated their details and it's 1056 and not 1057.
Anyway, after being asked verification questions I was just told
that this is normal procedure as by AoS was submitted I had
until 7th of Jan to submit the defence and given that I already
have done it and got the auto-response e-mail she said it's all
good.
Timeline:
05/12/2024 A claim was issued against you on
09/12/2024 at 15:42:35 Your acknowledgment of service was
submitted

received
16/12/2024 at 10:12:00 My defence was e-mailed to

16/12/2024 at 10:13:00 Auto Replay from the e-mail I sent
19/12/2024 at 19:30:00 I noticed that MCOL has the "A bar has
been put in place on this claim. You cannot respond to the claim
at this time." message
20/12/2024 at 10:07:00 I called 0300 123 1056 and after 15min on
hold I was told they put the bar in place so the case won't
progress further while they review the documents.
I will check this weekly and keep you updated. Once again thank
you for your time and help and wishing you a lovely festive
period.

Hi @b789,
The below response from DCB was sent over, saying that they have
reviewed my defence and that their client intends to proceed,
and that I can call them to discuss settlement. They also
included a copy of their N180DQ.

address.

Ignore what they put in their DQ. It will be allocated to your
local court.
To answer your questions:
1. Who cares and ignore.
2. No.
3. Your MCOL history will say that your N180 DQ has been sent.
When you receive your own N180 (make sure it is not simply a
copy of the claimants N180), do not use the paper form. Ignore
all the other forms that came with it. you can discard those.
If your MCOL says it has been sent but you havent received it
yet, just download your DQ own here and fill it in on your
computer. You sign it by simply typing your full name in the
signature box.

Here are the answers to some of the less obvious questions:
[indent] The name of the court is "Civil National Business
Centre".
To be completed by "Your full name" and you are the
"Defendant".
C1: "YES"
D1: "NO". Reason: "I wish to question the Claimant about their
evidence at a hearing in person and to expose omissions and any
misleading or incorrect evidence or assertions.
Given the Claimant is a firm who complete cut & paste parking
case paperwork for a living, having this case heard solely on
papers would appear to put the Claimant at an unfair advantage,
especially as they would no doubt prefer the Defendant not to

Thanks for the help with the form [member=26]b789[/member], I
have done exactly as you said and put down: Central London
County Court Thomas More Building Strand London WC2A 2LL I am in
London so much that it's much easier for me than in Bristol.
Would this be an issue to have it in London given my home
address is in Bristol? I am in London so much that its much
easier for me than in Bristol.

As soon as you confirm regarding the court address I will do
that. Do I need to send them anything else? Like my defence etc?
or just the DQ form?
