    I bet I can write the script of G&N's response:-

    "It's all down to a rogue member of staff, lessons have been learned, and extra training has been put in place to prevent this happening again"

    Except its probably 8 different members of staff ;)

    There is somebody who posts on a couple of parking forums who is an expert on the conduct of bailiffs. I know this is slightly different, but is it worth getting her involved?

    If you do a search of this forum you will see similar threads regarding the same sort of behavior from these clowns. So they cannot claim it's a "one off".
