I have been sent a final demand in my name and a letter of claim
from DCBLegal (and a couple of pay us now letters from DCBL
between those two that I ignored) and now the actual claim from
the court. All uploaded to the link a couple of posts above.
And added again here

No notice to keeper, no notice to hirer, absolutely nothing. I
did get a notification from the car hire company that they had
received a notice to keeper but that was by email and they
charged me 30£ as an admin fee for passing on my driving licence
details.
I will write a defence this evening and upload it for review.
Thanks!

How is this:-
The defendant refutes this claim for the following reasons.
The claimant is relying on POFA schedule 4 to establish
liability. As the vehicle the claimant believes was parked was
hired from Enterprise, to establish liability as per schedule 4
the claimant needs to provide the defendant with
1: A Notice to Hirer
2: A copy of the original Notice to Keeper as sent to Enterprise
3: A copy of the original hire agreement between the defendant
and Enterprise
4: A statement of liability signed and dated from Enterprise
confirming that the vehicle was hired by the defendant and that
the defendant is liable for any incurred charges
The claimant has failed to provide ANY of the required
documentation to the defendant or the court. This is despite
being asked to provide this documentation on the 26th of the 1st
2026 and confirming on the 27th of the 1st 2026 that they had
received the request for the relevant documentation. The
claimant has at no point in this process engaged with the
defendant regarding the missing documentation. Presumably
because the claimant was aware that they did not have the
required documentation and did not want to admit that.
The claimant is instead relying on a "Final Demand" sent to the
defendant on the 28th of the 12th 2025 which does not in any way
conform to the requirements of POFA schedule 4.
The defendant asks the court to dismiss this claim as the
claimant has failed to establish any liability on the part of
the defendant.
The defendant would also ask the court to take into
consideration that if the claimant had followed the correct POFA
procedures, the defendant would have been given a chance to
appeal the parking charge. This appeal would almost certainly
have been successful as the defendant did not leave the car park
at the time in question. The defendant drove into the car park,
parked in the first available disabled parking bay, lifted their
wheelchair out of the car, transferred into it from the car
seat, pushed across 3 or 4 parking bays to the payment
information sign mounted on a supporting pillar, was unable to
access the listed webpage for paying the parking fee, was unable
to download and install the listed app available for paying the
parking fee and had absolutely no wheelchair access to any other
payment option at the site. The defendant then got back into the
car and exited the car park. All of which happened in direct
view of a security camera. A total of perhaps 15 minutes
altogether.
This information would have resulted in a successful appeal and
the courts time would never have been wasted by this matter.
Is there any way I can add the relevant letters ie the final
demand and my response to it, to the defense when I do it
online?
Thanks.

You can't run the no keeper liability argument and then roll
directly on to identifying yourself as the driver as that
completely undermines the no liability argument!

So should I just stop at this line?
"The defendant asks the court to dismiss this claim as the
claimant has failed to establish any liability on the part of
the defendant."
Is the first part ok? I am out of my depth here.

Just stop saying things like “the defendant drove into the car
park” and instead use “the driver drove into the car park” or
similar. Think about it.
