    Savills are the most helpful of MAs. Just explain your circumstances, including your health issue, and I'm almost certain they will cancel. 

    Do a forum search on 'Savills' and check for a contact - there is one who is most helpful. I can't bring his name to mind, but it should be somewhere there buried in the threads. 

    Follow the steps in the link below to get the most effective results from the MSE search function. 

    Ask Savills Estate Agents for help? 
    It won't be a local selling arm, more a head office contact.  It will be Savills, not the actual landowner at this stage. I'm sure you'll be successful if you contact the right department. 
    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.

    If you get in touch with the land owners, you should get in touch with the dental practice first and ask them to support you.
     If they need patients to return to pick up things/complete treatment etc  then the parking company  is acting not only against the patients of the dental practice but the dental practice itself
    Thank you very much Half way, i emailed the dental practice last night and said that seeing as they have just started making crowns on site, which will mean the same double appointment as i had, then i will not be the only ones who would come unstuck and at the very least, when they book these people in, they should at least warn people to get the bus on the second journey or ask them to try to park further away and try to walk in.
    I will see if i can find a person to contact at BB.

    The dental practice must put pressure on the management company/ whoever it is that allowed the PPC to operate.
    If this is an ANPR set up and this was affecting my business then I would look at putting bin bags over the ANPR cameras until the PPC was prevented from operating as they are.
    Whitelists, keypads, terminals, registering number plates etc are not a viable solution

    Me too Half_way, the dentist can only deny ANY connection to their car park for so long before their review page starts to suffer. At the moment, i think they are relying on the massive shortage of nhs dentists to stop people complaining, however, they have, relatively recently, become partly private, cosmetic and implants, which seems quite a competitive industry.
  • Oh, the dentist has got a bit shirty with me when i asked to work together with them. 

  • Can,t say i have read every pop up banner in the dentist other than whether they want masks on and temperature taken. I saw a few offering expensive implants though and was just asked to take a seat.

    What did you say to the dentist to get that response?
