    Probably make these companies out to be harmless and just doing a job.
    When in reality they are evil leeches praying on the innocent

    All council so far with the exception of a quick mention Flashpark and their likeable ex-clamping boss and his talking parking tickets:rotfl:

    When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
    We don't need the following to help you.
    Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

    Watching, but a few minutes behind as I've had it on pause while getting a refill.

    Talking Parking Charge Notice (!!!!!!) :rotfl: - I guess Trev might be along shortly with his ANPR in a Box - terrorists, illegal immigrants and shoplifters beware. :D

    Oh jeez, along comes baby PPC. :cool:
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Up to date? It's a new series not a repeat, looks like it was filmed last summer. This was the 1st of 4 episodes.

    I wasn't sure, thanks. :)
    I googled that Flash Park thing and saw details from 2012, so it put me off thinking it was up to date.
