Phone the CNBC first thing on Monday morning, preferably about 8:30am in order to avoid a long wait. You will have to give them the claim number, and tell them you need them to email you the PoC while you wait and do not leave the call until you have received the PoC by email in your in-box.

Please read the questions asked and answer them. If you insist on only providing part answers, you are just wasting our time.

@DWMB2 already pointed me to the defence you submitted, which appears to be the generic one from MSE forum. As you included the Chan and Akande transcripts, I am assuming that the PoC failed to state a cause of action.

Who is the claimants representative bulk litigator?

However, more importantly, you have not answered the question about the PoC. Also, you have not said whether the claimant submitted a WS.

The judgment has already been set aside by the court under Point 1 of the order. The confusing part—Point 2—is standard procedural wording used in orders made without a hearing. It gives both parties the opportunity to challenge the set-aside order itself, not the underlying judgment. In other words:

• Point 1 confirms that the default judgment is already set aside because it was irregular (entered when a defence had in fact been filed).
• Point 2 gives either party seven days to challenge this order if they disagree with it (e.g., the Claimant might argue the defence wasn't filed in time, or wasn't properly served, etc.). It does not mean you need to apply to set aside the judgment—it has already been done.

Since your defence is already on file:

• No further action is needed from you right now, unless the Claimant makes an application to vary or overturn this order (which is unlikely unless they think they can prove you didn't serve your defence).
• The case will now continue as normal. The Claimant may:

• Choose to discontinue the claim.
• Proceed to the next stage, which is typically the Directions Questionnaire (DQ), unless already filed.
• Possibly seek further directions or respond to your defence.

You should monitor your post and email carefully over the next few weeks for:

• A Directions Questionnaire from the court, or
• Any communication from the Claimant.

If you want any further advice then please tell who the claimant is, who is representing them (DCB Legal?), show us the Particulars of Claim (PoC) and show us the defence you submitted.
