    Are you referring to Kings Parade by any chance?
    Yeah - after a bit of digging I see that it's actually their registered company address.

    Correct. Been there for quite a few years.
    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

    This is a bit short notice I know but tonight on X-Ray "MP Nick Smith asks why Private Parking Companies aren't better regulated?".

    On BBC One Wales now.....

    Bloody hell how can Watchdog get it right, and xRay get it so wrong ?
    Excel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
    They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
    Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?

    According to X-Ray's expert barrister you should pay up just in case you're the one person they take to court.

    What a plonker!

    He didn't say pay up I think, what he did say is to appeal to the scammers :( what the hell they asking people like him, what about asking the Cary solicitor like watchdog ?

    I only half heard what he said, unfortunately the wife insisted on talking to me at the crucial moment :o.

    I thought the piece actually started very well, Nick Smith raised some very important points and asked some very awkward questions that, not surprisingly, Excel Parking couldn't or wouldn't answer. X-Ray then let themselves down by allowing a representative of the BPA spout a bit of propaganda before showing the clip of the useless barrister.
