Parking companies and their lies to Popla

Stroma

So Prankster has blogged about the lies by large numbers of companies to Popla, I would say that is wrong and IMO they ALL lie to popla when they go there.

For example VCS and Excel have large numbers of different pre-estimate of losses documents, all with different reference numbers to distinguish one lie to the next. If you make a loss you must know what that is without making up crap to fit in with their made up figures!

They all have operating and tax deductible figures as losses, one I've seen even had website running costs of more than £10 a time on their loss, and their website is a template from Wordpress and their hosting costs a pittance each year.

Basically they lie, the bpa and ipc lie, and the biggest liars of all are the dvla

I have said this before, if they want to avoid those day-to-day running costs then they should not have set up the company in the first place.

Some of the logic is just stupid. Does it mean that if nobody breaks their rules then the office staff and parking "attendants" don't get paid or their IT system stops working?

Lying on an industrial scale basically and, as Stroma says, with a government agency at the heart of it. Positively Kafka-esque.

This question about the difference in costs and losses has been aired in court before. This was during the famous "A Retailer v Ms. B and Ms. K" "civil recovery" case in Oxford a few years ago.

The retail store tried to claim £100 as the security staff costs when dealing with the alleged shop-lifting incident. The judge ruled that the security staff would have been paid anyway, they weren't paid any extra wages to deal with the incident, and dealing with shop-lifters was part of their "core duties".
