DCBL Private parking (eurocarparks)
DIR By: mistermer

---------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I am seeking help regarding an overstayed PCN that occurred in
London, Beckton Retail Park on 27/05/2024
It has been a long time since then so I truly don't remember
what happened as well as who was the driver of the car at the
time.
I have recently on the 08/07/2025 received a Claim form and I
have already submitted the AoS today 14/07/2025 according to the
guide.
I would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed.
Thank you.
Also I have attached the claim form below.

What went on prior to this court claim?
What had been received after the incident ie: PPN, Letters from
debt collectors?

Prior to the court claim I have received multiple letters from
DCB that I have ignored.
When I received a letter of claim from DCB Legal I have sent
them an email according to the guide but was quite late as I
sent it on the 25th day of the 30 days period they have given me
until they claim on me.
I was quite late with my response to the letter of claim but I
was very busy and had stuff going on that I have to sort out
first. Never received a reply from them either.

Don't worry about the LoC. You now have to deal with the claim
itself.
With an issue date of 8th July, you had until 4pm on Monday 28th
July to submit your defence. As you have submitted an
Acknowledgement of Service (AoS) before then, you now have until
4pm on Monday 11th August to submit your defence.
16.4 only defence:
Here is the defence and link to the draft order that goes with
it. You only need to edit your name and the claim number. You
sign the defence by typing your full name for the 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
number must be in the email subject field and in the body of the
email just put: "Please find attached the defence and draft
order in the matter of Euro Car Parks Ltd v [your full name]
Claim no.: [claim number]."

Hi, thank you for your help.
Just sent the email of the Defence and draft order in the same
PDF file and got an auto reply from them saying await response
in 10 days.
What are the next steps? What kind of response do I expect in 10
days?

Hi, it's been some time since nearly a month and I still haven't
received any response from anyone. Is that normal?

When you emailed the defence, did you CC yourself and receive
it? Did you receive an auto-response from the CNBC? Have you
checked your MCOL history to see what the status of the claim
is?

I CCed myself and also received the auto response from them.
I tried log in MCOL but can't currently as I had two government
gateways IDs on the same email address and can't log in into one
of them which I think is the one connected to MCOL.
I will try calling them in the morning to rectify the issue.
