Doubt it - until their practice is outlawed, then it will be hard to do anything about it. Blackmail in principle, but in practice not as they are unregulated so to a certain extent have the authority to do what they do - hence the lack of prosecution.

Calling the police?

"Mummy, the nasty man made me sad..."

If you're reading this 'Matthew'; you my friend are a prick.

I can honestly say If that happened to me I would put his van windows through with my fists.

Picking on an innocent young girl like that....... Imagine that was your mum.

Sorry to sound harsh but I have experience of these cowboy clamper firms and its all bad. The British Parking Association is a total waste of time and the sooner clamping on private land is made illegal the better.

No doubt you will get some clampers respondng to this post saying: well dont park where you should not then!

I am not against issusing a penalty but that penalty needs to fit the crime.

Park legally, its not difficult is it.
If you choose to park on private land, when you know damn well you shouldn't be, you face the consequences i'm afraid (even if its only for as long as it takes for a pizza to cook)
No sympathy from me.....move along now!!
Stop being such a .

I was very angry but I know at the young age of 24 that violence don't solve anything, even though that was VERY tempting redface

I can honestly say that I wouldn't publicly admit to actually doing or planning anything of the sort tongue out
Although I do know some thoroughly horrible people who I daresay are slightly more horrible than the average LBS style clampers. The rest can be left to the imagination. wink

There are other ways to get even, and I think I would be tempted to use as many as I could come up with.

Three grand as a storage fee?

This can't be correct. Are you sure it didn't say something like £X/day up to a max of £3k?

To be honest I'm surprised more cases don't turn violent. I bet these blackmailers would not dare target a car full of tall and well built men in the way they do single and vulnerable women.

Well you'd have to be careful not to do anything too nasty. I wouldn't, for example, find the nearest fishing boat and request some fish guts, put them in a pot and leave them in a warm place for a week, then accidentally spill them into the air intake of the van that the clamping meat head like spending so much of his time sitting in. Especially when it is winter and he likes the heater on.
