Illegal Cartels ... you could get £100k by reporting them

Illegal Cartels ... you could get £100k by reporting them

The Competition and Markets Authority waiting to hear ?

Cartels are illegal.

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/cartels-informant-rewards-policy

What is a cartel ? It is a group of people or companies who fix a price that is detrimental to the market place and the public

In the parking industry we have independent companies who apply an extra £60 to their claim

BWLegal, Gladstones, QDR, SCSLaw, VCS/Excel ... to name the main culprits.
Of late, we have DCBLegal and CT Legal enter the great parking scam. DCBL go a step further by adding £70 plus VAT to their claim

IS AN ILLEGAL CARTEL OPERATING ????

This needs to be investigated by The Competition and Markets Authority who are very strict and issue BIG fines

Costs nothing to report and you could get up to £100k for exposing a cartel. Better than the lottery
