I think you'll find they split and NCP still exist as a separate entity.:rotfl:

Hmm...confusing It seems NCP and NSL are used interchangeably in news items or used as NSL, formerly NCP. Happens if you demerger, I suppose.

Anyway, legally clamped it would seem as they work on behalf of DVLA. Anything wrong with the ticket e.g. no signature?

So I'm confused... is this legal or not??

Very probably it is, unless NCP have transgressed.


(NCP and NSL are different legal entities as denoted by the Company Numbers)

Keep money aside for the £80 penalty that will be coming in the post from DVLA.

No parking fine at all, just a notice of what to do next which was left in the rain!

I haven't heard of anyone done for criminal damage.

The scotts out lawed clamping!!!! Don't know why we don't

Is it one u can let the tyre down and drive off? When I worked in the motor trade a hire car got clamped outside my work because the hirer just left it there when the collected their car. So we thought it unfair.

I have done that before but most use a triangular piece of metal with a chain now.

I wouldn't know how to use a angle grinder, nor would I be able to let the tire down and drive away - it is the triangular metal thing with a whopping great big chain around it!!!!! I kicked the darn chain and hurt my toe!

Don't do this, its not a private clamper, they are contracted to DVLA. Mucho Doo Doo's will come down on you.

Get a friendly lock-smith to pick the lock

That way they can't do you for "criminal damage"

But you will probably have to pay the DVLA's £80 fine when it arrives for non-payment of vehicle tax.

Again, this would be illadvised as previously said. At least the BIB did not catch her for Not Displaying a valid VEL.
