I'll get that sent off this afternoon, thanks a million for your help.

The chances are fairly high you already saw this but I'll link to an article on the beeb that was forwarded to me (about a man who VCS were going after for the exact same thing) for other people reading this thread, I know that reviewing similar cases to mine when I first found this website was very encouraging, maybe you helped him too.

Thank you. I'm super relieved you picked this up again.

I am the defendant & the keeper of the vehicle. The driver has not been identified by the claimant. Initially they had my sisters address as I was living with her for a short time. VCS & DCB legal ignored my request to update the address & remove previous addresses in accordance with data protection. Only after speaking with the mediator was the correct address assigned to the case.

I'm assuming I can email my further defence to the same email address at justice.gov.uk?? If not I am close enough to the court office to drop it off in person.

Hi There. Thanks again for your help so far. I have been asked to provide a further defence by 4pm tomorrow. I have included a link to the General Form of Judgement or Order. It says it was sent over 10 days ago but it arrived on friday or saturday! Any advice gratefully received, Thanks in advance

Thanks again I just wanted to check that the draft order in that dropbox link was complete, it's just one page and it seems to pick up halfway through? Apologies in advance if I'm being thick.

b789 Thankyou that's brill, I really appreciate it. I will get my defence sent off first thing tomorrow.

I am given to understand from my research on this & other forums that the next steps in the process would be a hearing date being given followed by a witness statement deadline being dictated by the court, is this correct & if so how do we have any idea long should I expect to wait before I hear back from them?

Thanks guys! DWMB2 yep fair point I think I've updated my V5C now, I'll double check before work. b789 I've updated the original post to include all documents. My laptop was running out of batteries last night, I thought they were already included in the post! & I'll amend to delete any reference to DCBL. I didn't realise they were different companies, thankyou.

I was careful not to refer to myself as the driver in question after reading advice here & on other forums. In the email I denied that "I or any other driver of the vehicle entered into any contractual agreement with VCS Ltd" & this was the only reference to drivers made... maybe you'll be able to tell me otherwise but this denial can surely be made as the keeper of the vehicle and I definitely didn't admit to driving at the time of the incident.

The original issue date of the claim was 05/08/24 & the event was 29/07/24

Good evening all :-) I can see you’ve already offered a fair bit of advice to people being pursued by DCB Legal for payment of Charge Notices issued by VCS Ltd for alleged breaches of the ‘no stopping’ rule at Bristol Airport. I’m very thankful for the advice I’ve read so far, any advice on my specific case gratefully received.

An N1SDT claim form from the CNBC was sent to my sister’s address 2 wks ago. It’s just caught up with me which gives me until monday the 10th of march to respond. I’ll try & be concise but I also want to include all relevant info:

The driver stopped for a red light at the temporary pelican outside arrivals on their way towards drop off & pick up. The pedestrian was exiting the terminal at the same time & saw an opportunity to quickly get into the car.

The still images supplied by VCS show the car being stopped for between 4 and 5 seconds & a red light is clearly visible in the first image

The photo timestamped 29/07/2024 23:17:26 shows the red light and the following images timestamped 23:17:29 and 23:17:31 respectively do not show any movement of traffic in the opposing lane indicating that the flow of traffic was not impeded in any way. I have more reasons for believing the charge notice to be unjust & drew attention to them in the email I sent to DCB Legal. I think they’ve all been covered on previous threads here so let’s skip that part, link to the email will be included below..

The charge notices and DCB Legal’s notices of debt recovery went to my sister’s house (driving license has since been updated) so there was always going to be a delay in my response but I had contacted DCB Legal via email within the 30 days demanded of me. As well as making my reasons for disputing the claim clear I asked them to remove any previous addresses from their records in accordance with data protection regulations and I asked them to provide clear answers to several relevant questions in accordance with the Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims.

Despite this and my instructions to contact me at my new postal address the only response I had from them was an email asking me to confirm my Sister’s address. It also informed me that a response to said email would imply my consent to be contacted via that email address. I did not reply to it. They totally ignored my request to remove her address from their records and they didn't respond to my requests for information in accordance with Pre-Action Protocol.

So.. that’s where we are right now, the N1SDT claim form was sent to my sister’s address on the 19th of feb. I intend on fighting them all the way. Is it best to ignore DCB Legal at this point & just respond to the N1SDT? And is it too late to get them to go through my current address so I'm not constantly badgering my sister about mail? Any advice very gratefully received & huge thanks in advance.

I’ve attached links to the N1SDT & all previous correspondence including the email I sent to DCB Legal on IMGUR, links below.
