  • Very obvious that the timestamps were altered - the shadow of the car has barely moved. Hope whoever is responsible loses their job, quite honestly - unless it was somehow a mistake, though I doubt that.

    In the last set of photos the same car with its boot open can clearly be seen in the row behind even though the warden had changed position slightly.

    I wonder if more cases will come to light if it gets enough publicity?

    Letter going to my MP


    UKPC, who manage the car park at Branaght Court, (RG30 2QZ), appear to be involved in the wholesale fabriation of evidence and raising false car parking charges.


    I have contacted Thames Valley Charitable Housing Association about this, but they have shown no interest.


    I attach copy of a BBC website and an artcitac in the Linciln press.


    Will you please write to the TVCHA expressing your concern at their continued employment of this disreputable company.

    Photo number one was supposed to be 7:15AM at that time the shadows would have been much longer too.

    Taking two photos less than a few minutes apart for the purposes of reporting an overstay is hardly a 'mistake'.

    We are smelling organised and deliberate fraud by people who think they can hide behind the BPA and DVLA as a veneer to cover for them.

    How many thousands have just paid ?

    I think the serious fraud office need to be at their servers today.
