You bypass the non legally trained civilian on the phone at the police call centre by writing to the chief constable

Is this the reporting site for fraud.

Gone through their A-Z lists of frauds and they don't appear yet to have a car park fraud.

Always something new in the world of car parking on private land.

^^^^^^^^

This.

Don't understand why most people's first inclination these days is to 'phone some ignorant minion whose priority (for which he has been trained) is to get rid of you without taking any action. By the time you've listened to piped music, been cut off, been fobbed off, tried again hoping to get someone else and so on, you could've written a letter to the head honcho which will be 20 times more effective anyway.

Never phone the police if you can send a letter instead.

And yet another case of "manipulation" as reported by PP:-

How clear a case of fraud does it have to be before they decide the law needs to be upheld, this is absolute text book example of multiple offences of the fraud act, one carrying up to ten years prison.

Is this the stage we are at with these knuckle dragging ex-clampers, they can just break the fraud act and ride over the law and nobody cares ?
Why bother with the police and authorities if thats the case, just let the parking firms dish out justice.

This is blatant and deliberate fraud, far worse than clamping ever threw up, it has ascended to a whole new level.
Forget POPLA and ADR schemes, this has to be stopped in the criminal courts if we have to club in and issue a private summons
The police and authorities are acting like three brass monkeys.

I notice from that latest story that the motorist complained to the BPA back in June:-

James has complained to the British Parking Association. It has the power to bar companies which persistently break its rules from the association. A spokesman said: "We are investigating the matter after Mr Cooper contacted us. UKPC has 14 days to respond to us."

I wonder if anything ever happened to that complaint or did the BPA just do their usual trick and do nothing?

Once brought to the attention of the people owning said car park, they become complicit in that fraud, the company officers are culpable in law with up to ten years prison.
One has to think issuing a private summons against both parties, the ceo and officers of said supermarket and their agents the parking firm might just focus them as to what they are getting involved with.

The police will always try to fob off such matters, "it's a civil offence Sir" That is why you must write to them, get them to put it in writing then take it to the PCC.
