I think if I were in a position of authority at Wickes I would deduct the costs of dealing with ParkingEye's depredations from the rent and challenge the landowner to begin eviction proceedings.

If I were Wickes I'd instruct every store to get one of those long ladders they sell along with some of the sacks they also sell and cover up every PE camera !

.......Wickes agreed that it was their fault regarding the ticket and that they should have canceled it in the first instant. They said they have a lot of cases like mine and it takes up a lot of their time sorting out the mess that Parking Eye cause. They have a number of customers in Wickes who need to stay for over the 2 hour mark due to ordering kitchens and this results in several tickets. Wickes do request to cancel these, but apparently Parking Eye ignore them. Even the burger van who works there got taken to court for a parking ticket! Wickes had to pay all the costs and remove his CCJ!

Wickes are unhappy about using Parking Eye, but apparently as they only lease the land, they need the landowner to remove Parking Eye....but he's not interested.......

Sounds to me like Wickes should be taking a long hard look at their lease with the landowner.

Claims for damages for loss can cut both ways!!

It just shows what a scumbag company they are, they don't give a monkeys about anything apart from their profits. They are surely going to get thrown out of a lot of places because of their actions.

The advice should be to avoid all retailers that use them, and to let them know this, I email companies on a weekly basis with receipts from elsewhere, and tell them that I and my family and friends will not use their stores until they are gone.

I even have my friends giving me receipts to do this

This could be interesting direct action for hobbyists with a vendetta against PE. Spraying paint over the camera lens would be criminal damage but a black bin liner that could be easily removed should be lawful.

Lots of litter around the country, a proportion of that would be plastic bags, it would be a damned shame if the wind blew one of them over a camera such as this
