Cetral Ticketing Ltd Edinburgh

I did not realise that tickets issued by legitimate authorities could not be glued on to the windscreen. He did think about a car cover but he knows from experience that putting a car cover on a dirty car can scratch the paintwork and he has no means of washing the car at the flat. Do you think he should contact the police again and complain? This whole thing is really getting out of hand.

Had a look at the Rimmer Bros link. Same colour as our Stag but that's a Mk1 and ours is a Mk2. That pod would certainly do the trick.

Update on the above.

Some 6 weeks on and son still receiving tickets almost daily for legitimately parking in the residents' locked underground car park and they are still being glued to his windscreen. Factor admitted to press that they are aware that these so called 'fines' cannot be enforced but still not instructed CT Ltd to stop harassing our son. CT Ltd well aware that son is a resident but still refuse to stop issuing these invoices. Son contacted DVLA instructing them not to give out his details to CT Ltd as they were in breach of BPA rules. ie 'Section 6 -CT Ltd on his land without his or his agent's permission'. Response received from DVLA defended their actions in giving out driver details. MP, MSP all aware of the situation and wish to be kept informed of any correspondence received. There appears to be no way for an individual to complain to BPA about one of their members.
Any further advice apart from 'ignore'?

The BPA is just a toothless organization that only looks after the interest of its members and sod the general public. I suppose your son could sue Excel for criminal damage to his car. Otherwise just tell him to ignore and hope that the powers that be might take some action.

The powers that be appear very reluctant to get involved. Even police have told him it's a civil matter.

In my opinion it's not just a "civil matter" if actual damage is being done to the car by those tickets being glued to the windscreen.

You can complain to the BPA. I have done it myself when a PPC was using the BPA logo on their website even though it was not a member. It might be worth a try.

Did you actually get a reply from BPA? With you on potential damage being a Criminal not Civil matter.

Yes, I did. They said that were taking action to get that logo removed. Of course that was over a non-member. Whether they they would be as pro-active over one of their own members I cannot say.
