    Stop hijacking threads and edit-out your email - Posting on behalf of a compant and soliciting contact off board is forbidden under the T&Cs you clearly agreed to!
  • Pogofish, I hardly think that pointing out to the good people in this thread that paying their hard earned money over to these scam artists is going to be an issue to anyone but yourself. You don't work for Bridgegate Legal do you? Either that or you just have nothing better to do with yourself all day but get off on reading about everyone elses problems.
  • Excuse me.
    Pogofish is a regular and respected poster on here.


    When you sign up to the forum you agree to certain rules. One of those rules is that the forum is for individuals, not companies. You are therefore breaking those rules.


    What you seem to have missed are the several messages politely reminding you about those rules, and that this forum is for people to get help fighting private parking charges.


    You have also been told, quite politely, that it is very bad form to "hijack" someone else's thread - ie go on someone's thread about their own parking charge and then use it to discuss your own separate issue.


    What has happened to all of you is interesting, it is wrong and is deserving of discussion, but not in this forum and not on this thread.


    Please stop.


    As you were everyone else.

I accept no liability for the accuracy of any such posts and users are advised that, if they wish to obtain formal legal advice specific to their case, they must seek instruct and pay a solicitor.

    As Loadsofchildren123 says above.

    Pogofish may be blunt but it's needed otherwise the forum will become a disaster area.

    Be nice to a respected member
