If they don't respond, then I'd just raise this when it gets to the matter of costs if you win. If you believe the answers to your questions will be particularly illuminating you can of course chase them for a reply.

Thanks. I'll follow up. At least that way there will be plenty on evidence that they have consciously ignored their obligations

I'd leave it for them to make contact.

It's not the defendant's job to chase the claimant.

Besides, we've seen cases were the claimant doesn't provide responses for 6 to 12 months - this looks terrible if the matter escalates.

Leave it to them to build their own funeral pyre!!

Hi All

I have now received a claim form, link as follows:

along with aknowledgement of service etc forms.

Having read the rest of the forum, it appears to me that the suggestion will be to respond with a standard defence, given the lack of full paritculars. I assume that this would be the appropriate response here?

As predicted, they have not responded to my requests for information. If the suggestion is to apply for a strike out, I assume my application for costs ought to accompany this?

I expect everyone asks this, but I think I also have a good factual defence, given the timings of my visit (paid within 5 mins of arrival, 9 minutes over the paid for period, plus mitigating circumstances), so if there is any benefit at all to including this in the defence, I'd be grateful for thoughts!
