If you feel that Gladstones have acted unprofessionally do not hesitate to complain to the SRA.

Reply from SRA
Thank you for reporting your concerns to us about solicitors.
We are now taking the time to carefully assess these, and we will also look at the regulatory information we may already hold to decide what we need to do next.
We will respond to you within the next 35-45 working days, sooner if we identify urgent problems that need our immediate response.
If we cannot help with your concerns, we will point you in the right direction.

Yep, a known forum 'glitch', never resolved (or understood) over many years .. 'Ours is not to wonder why ......'!betman said:
I like the spikey way in which you are taking on/engaging with all the players in your fight - nice one.👍Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Thanks for your comments Umkomaas and your support. I am very angry over this and the way these predators are acting not just with me but others on here. As my ex staff have found out in my past job position. Please don't make me angry....you won't like it when I am angry. I am fair and just and expect to be treated so. This has brought out the fight in me....I had mellowed in later life but was brutal but fair in business. . All this week every day rather than conduct my present line of work , I am working daily on this issue. The backing I am receiving from you guys is spurring me on to contact the players head on. Should someone not comply with an SAR...bring it on and if they don't supply something requested and then found to be concealing !! Watch this space !!

Have you read about vexatious litigants? IMO some of these claims reach the threshhold. It would be lovely if one of these companies was put on the banned listYou never know how far you can go until you go too far.2

While it's an entirely different PPC and location, if you've time, do have a look at @DisruptiveLad's thread at the way he has really gone for the jugular at Liverpool John Lennon Airport. Very few who come here are prepared to hit back hard, most just want an end to their ticket, then leave it to anyone else but them to take on PPCs at large.betman said:Thanks for your comments Umkomaas and your support.

"I write to complain very strongly about the actions of Defence Systems who manage your car park outside your premises at Antelope Park Bursledon Southampton""So much so that in the end you had to put a warning sign up as the signs by Parking Watch were not large, clear or positioned enough."Just a thought - would it be helpful to clarify that Defence Systems Ltd t/a Park Watch just in case the CEO or minions think that they are two different entities?.4
