They are connected to "uk-facility-services" so expect more hilarious spelling mistakes etc when that website goes live.

In my personal opinion which in no way reflects the opinions or views of Money Saving Expert you should not use the services of UKFS Uk-facility-services UK Facility Services

Oops, just noticed that the Centrica page is the same as the ones found on the British Gas and Dyno websites (they're all the same company it seems) - most likely it's from the British Gas website. I wonder if British Gas were asked before the content was copied?

If we could all advise centrica of the alleged breach of their copyright I'm sure they will appreciate it. If the man with the same name as a crappy town in Kent deletes or amends the alleged page in question here is a screen print as of 15/12/2009 http://img705.imageshack.us/i/86725392.mp4/

I have just emailed Centrica with the evidence. I bet they have better lawyers than he has.

He may (Allegedly) send them a bill for £70 and don't forget he has good Debt Collectors / Enforcement Agents...

One flaw in that "7 day extension" is that their office is actually shut for 12 days.

Idiots.

Interesting to see that this incident took place in Chorley. Hmm. A little trip out may be in order.

I also see that the place to park for free this Christmas in Lancashire is apparently Gala Bingo in Chorley!

My thoughts exactly.

Although on one of his (Ashley's) links, not sure if it was the old PCN-UK site or his now deleted Facebook page, he listed a number of car parks besides Gala Bingo. So hopefully there's a selection of them in Chorley.

It's a bit out of the way but hopefully I'll visit some of them after Christmas when I go shopping in the sales. Never been to Chorley before so I don't know if there's many shops there, but it's only half an hour from Manchester on the train.
That should give the PCN-UK crew plenty of time to issue a ticket.

If successful I'll be sure to take lots of pictures of his amusing signposts and (hopefully) PCN.

Strange one that.

They were only up and running for a month or so as 'PCN-UK' when they changed their registered company name to 'UKFS'

Why would you do that?

Hmmm. Very odd.
It's almost as if they needed to change the company name for some reason.
