On 20/10/2025, I received a letter before claim from DCB Legal Ltd acting on behalf of Observices Parking.The PC was issued on 08/04/2020 while living at a different address.I have moved to a different address in September 2022 and never received anything during that time until the LBC.I have replied to the LBC as follows Proposed Legal ProceedingsClaimant: OBServices Parking Consultancy LimitedI refer to your your letter of claim dated 20th October 2025.I am no longer the registered keeper and I wasn't driving the car when I was. Kindly revert to your client with the following:I have researched the PoFA 2012 and your client have not met the conditions which allow them to invoke keeper liability or compel me to name the driver. They must cancel and erase my data, as I am not the liable party and I decline their belated request to name the driver.Groundbreaking improvements would include issuing future Notices of Parking Charge properly and engaging fairly, avoiding involving bulk litigators like you lot in this 'extorting money from motorists' model outed by the DLUHC as a market failure.The alleged debt is disputed and any court proceedings will be vigorously defended.I was the registered keeper of the vehicle. I was not driving on the date mentioned and I am not obliged to identify the driver and I decline to do so. As there is no legal presumption that the keeper of a vehicle was its driver on any particular occasion, your client cannot pursue me as driver (see VCS v Edward, 2023). As your client cannot pursue me as driver or keeper, it would be an abuse of the court痴 process for your client to issue a claim against me and I will defend any such claim vigorously. Furthermore, I will file a Part 20 counterclaim for not less than ｣500. This will be claimed as damages for distress arising as a result of clear breaches of the DPA 2018 and/or the Protection From Harassment Act 1997.I also note that the amount being claimed has increased by a hugely exaggerated amount which the Government called "extorting money from motorists".Don't send me your usual blather about that. I have two questions, and under the PAP I am entitled to specific answers:1. Am I to understand that the additional ｣70 represents what you lot dress up as a 'Debt Recovery' fee, and if so, is this nett or inclusive of VAT? If the latter, would you kindly explain why I am being asked to pay the operator痴 VAT?2. With regard to the principal alleged PCN sum: Is this damages, or will it be pleaded as consideration for parking?覧覧覧覧覧覧覧覧Then 2 days ago I received a letter and some forms from HM courts which I have acknowledged it on MCOL.Will attach the form received once I work out how 😩
