    Given the size of their "real" office it must be a very tight fit what with all those managers, the management from PCN-UK, the Safe Hands Security Management team, plus the staff from Security Consultancy & Training.
    My very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016). :(

    For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com

    You missed out Turner & Turner, their accountants.

    I've just noticed UK Protection Services offer "cleaning services".

    I wonder if thats Ashford's new job? Failed bouncer, failed clamper so now he's a window cleaner? (licker?)


    'Cleaning' is CIA speak for assasination.

    If I had been talking about Bank House, Victoria Road, Fulwood (i.e. the registered office) then I agree Turner and Turner would have been missing from the list but that wasn't the offices I was referring to. I was referring to the real offices in Chorley which was the registered office of Security Consultancy & Management Ltd before it was dissolved just 3 days ago.

    Still no signs up at Gala Bingo Chorley, looks like they may have decided not to use UKPS's "PROFFESIONAL" service after all.

    I've noticed the pub near Gala Bingo called The Swan with Two Necks have got UK Protection Services signs up in their car park though. They've also got a comment on the testimonials page of the UKPS website.....

    "UKPS have provided me with one of the best doorteams i have ever had on my venue, at all times they are polite smart and friendly. I would not have any hesitation recommending UKPS for all security needs."

    I bet the bouncers on the pub door, sorry the "UNIFORMED OPPERITIVES", stand there with a halfords wheel clamp behind their back waiting for people to park without going in the pub.

    I have just spotted another spelling mistake on their website. Shouldn't it be "UNINFORMED OPPERITIVES", because they don't seem to have much basic knowledge of parking law?
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?
