Anyone used Left Luggage at Victoria Coach Station recently?

Options
Am planning to travel into/out of London by coach specifically because of the left luggage facility where I'll be able to leave a large case overnight. I've read the details on the Coach Station/TFL site but wondered if anyone has recent experience of it e.g is it opened as advertised, is it likely to be full, etc etc?

    If its any help I used the one at kings cross recently.

    It only took 5 mins to drop off my bag but when I came back they were full and refusing so I suggest you get there early. They will ask you to turn off any electronics. :)

    We used the left luggage at Victoria 2 weeks ago.
    We couldn't find this one: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/gettingaround/1216.aspx

    But it was very easy to find: http://www.left-baggage.co.uk/left_luggage_victoria.php

    It was hot and we decided not to look more for the first one.
    The second was very well organized and didn't have many people when we left our luggage - it was 11am.

    Thanks for your replies.

    The TFL website one is the one I am interested in. Do you mean you were already at the coach station and couldn't find the advertised facility - which is what I am worried about as have had problems in the past elsewhere when intending to use left luggage only to find it has been closed down, full, wrong opening hours listed, etc. Or was it you didn't know where the coach station was?

    Don't know about the coach station one, but the one at the rail station always seems empty, and it was certainly still there yesterday :)

    I sent an e-mail to the TFL site and got a very helpful reply from Victoria Coach station admin.
