Thank you Beamerguy. I wondered whether the local rag might be the way forward and I'll speak to some journos I know over the weekend. The beauty of this is that it's not the LA that I'm going to be exposing. Its a company that everyone knows already are just a bunch of t***s. The irony of it all is that the land concerned is right in the midst of the courts and vast numbers of solicitors offices, so many of those who will have been penalised will be workers who had paid the £3.95 day rate. If just one of those were to become involved then who knows....we might finally be able to put one very big nail in the coffin of VCS and others like them.

DO IT ...... with pleasure

You have the backing of a judge and you know the case number

You never know, it could reach the National press or maybe you could involve them as well

WE WON!!!! From the County Court today - "IT IS ORDERED THAT The claim is struck out as the Claimant has failed to comply with Paragraph 1 of the order of 9 September 2019"

Thank you one and all for all of the advice and support throughout. Essentially, we succeeded in proving that VCS had NO authority to be operating a pop-up car park on the land in question. This would therefore suggest that anyone else who has been taken to court by them (and lost) or who has even just purchased a parking ticket whilst the site was operational might well have some sort of a case against the scumbags themselves. If anyone has any advice about how such procedure(s) might be instigated (and brought to people's attention), then please share accordingly. Thanks again everyone

Just read this - well done!

But did you counterclaim, in which case it's still in play?

If not, at least send a quick letter straight to the Judge, as Redx advised:

Thanks Coupon-mad - especially as some of your own advice and input was instrumental in getting this result. Have written to the judge and will report back accordingly. Unfortunately, I didn't issue a counter claim at the time due to time constraints and focusing on winning. I know, I know. I really wish I had now, but as we all know, all's well in retrospect. Again, thanks so much and I'll let everyone know once I hear anything back.

any further thoughts on ...







"Essentially, we succeeded in proving that VCS had NO authority to be operating a pop-up car park on the land in question"


so as well as your consideration re a claim .... this could cause them considerable grief if it got reported in some local/national rag .... not sure how that could happen though.

Would you mind giving us the name of the court, name of the judge, case number, and your surname initial please (a court case is normally referred to using the format VCS vs Mr B for example) as this may help others where no permission/advertising consent has been granted?
