DCB Legal Issued Claim Form from HM Courts and Tribunals Service
DIR By: Lenic99
Date: January 30, 2026, 6:24 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi everyone, I hope you can help me?
My wife has received an issued claim form from DCB Legal.
I read a similar post on here and I think which stated that this
has "pretty poor Particulars of Claim which I am almost certain
do not comply with CPR 16.4(1)"
The wording of the Particulars of the Claim is below
1. The Defendant is indebted to the Claimant for a Parking
Charge issued to vehicle XXXXX at XXXX.
2. The date of contravention is XXX and the D was issued with
PCs by the Claimant.
3. The D is pursued as the driver of the vehicle for breach of
the terms on the signs (the contract). Reason: Vehicle Remained
On Private Property In Breach Of The Prominently Displayed Terms
and Conditions.
4. In the alternative the D is pursued as the keeper pursuant to
POFA 2012, Schedule 4.
AND THE CLAIMANT CLAIMS
1. £170 being the total of the PC and damages.
2. Interest at a rate of 8% per annum pursuant to s.69 of the
CCA 1984 from the date hereof at a daily rate of £0.01 until
judgment or sooner payment.
3. Costs and court fees.
This is from 2022, the place in question has long shut down. We
are worried about the threat of CCJ's but the amount being asked
to pay is a lot £311.48
I hope someone can help me.

You probably need to post up a picture of the claim form and the
original PCN (redacting all personal info).

Search the forum.
If you file a defence, for which you have until 5+14 days from
the date on the N1SDT (February 14?), it is very likely that DCB
Legal will eventually discontinue the claim prior to having to
pay the court fee. You can also file an Acknowledgment of
Service by the deadline which gives you an extra 14 days to file
a defence. If you do neither, DCB Legal will apply for a
judgment in default against you.
You also need to read up on “CCJ”, which is a term used by DCB
Legal to frighten you into paying. Even if they do not
discontinue, and even if you lose in court, provided you pay
within 30 days there is no recorded judgment which negatively
affects your ability to get credit etc.
Please also post the original Notice to Keeper. Parking Eye
generally complies with PoFA 2012, and presumably you have not
previously written to them as an appeal, but Parking Eye tends
to use DCB Legal for cases it is less sure about winning.
