Pre-Action Protocol Letters

from PDC Property Debt Collection Ltd

I'm currently assisting a number of Badbury Park residents who have received Pre-Action Protocol Letters from PDC Property Debt Collection Ltd regarding alleged late payment of estate management charges.

In one recent case, the timeline raised several questions:

📅 30 April 2026 – Statement of Account and an Overdue Reminder were both issued on the same day.

📅 18 May 2026 – A Final Notice was issued and a £65 Late Payment Administration Fee was added.

The TP1 Transfer Deed appears to allow 28 days after a written demandbefore contractual consequences arise, so this raises questions about whether the process followed complies with the Fifth Schedule.

There are also questions about the contractual basis for the £65 fee and whether all of the calculations and documents required by the TP1 were provided with the demand.

If you've received a similar letter, you're not alone. Each case depends on its own facts, but it's important to understand your rights under your Transfer Deed before responding.
