Re: County Court (Small Claims track)

I cancelled the claim made through the county court via the website, because (i) the claim was opened this way, and (ii) the county court "helpline" had closed at 4pm.

As far as I could see, the only suitable option was "accept full payment and enter judgement", or words to that effect. The website seemed happy, and I thought that was the end of the matter.

A few days later an irate manager from Mark Two phoned to say that they had been "blacklisted" by credit reference agencies because of the county court judgement against them! I explained what had happened, then phoned the county court helpdesk (this is the correct procedure, apparently), then phoned the manager, who eventually calmed down.

Well, there must be a flaw in the system if it lets an individual have such a dramatic affect on a company! With just a few clicks of a mouse!!

Hopefully this really is the end of the matter!
