Nov 2009 at 19:03 A very similar company (might be the same one) operate at the shopping centre where my shop is. The owner of the business where the car is taken from get a good cut out of the tow away fee. If I call them out to remove a car I get £35 minimum. I haven't yet called them and won't, it's legalised robbery

If you were random victim I would not be so supportive, but this is a long standing arrangement and the landlord doesn't care and is a very stupid thing to do to paying customers.

I am surprised that noone has yet placed a car so it would get towed and packed it with explosives. That is the sort of thing some people I thought would do.

I WOULD NOT - I WOULD JUST SNATCH IT BACK

A few nasty mates sounds good but i'd go to the police & explain you've tried to contact them to no avail hence you feel you're being ripped off for a daily storage charge.
They must have an obligation to answer the phone if they take your car.

Pay as little as you have too, leave it a year or two then exact a nasty revenge that thier ins. won't cover or violence to persons involved. I know some won't agree with the violence side but it's all they understand & let's face it the messed with your car then took the p*** so yeah why not? Just leave it a while. Angry

I bet you will get less flack for that rather than cough up over half a thousand pounds for them to give it back.

How much is a lock?

I bet the magistrates would be VERY leniant especially as it showed that you were responsible by avoiding drink driving.

NOONE likes clampers nor lifters - including the legal profession.

do what i did buy the biggest pieces of crap ever, car wise i mean. bought four cars for a tenner each park them in the pub, Thumbs Up!

that night go take the wheels off and any thing else you can get off including bonnets tail gate and disgard them there. cut the fuel lines fill them with rubbish and as much manure that you can get your hands on then sit there and watch when they come to make some more money and walk over and have a good laugh at the guys while they try to get rid of them. Also put it on full lock and hand brake higher than a giraffe nuts just for good measure i certainly had fun wathcing them.

Despite the usual gung-ho flying around, you are going to end up paying. It's annoying and is bound to make you angry, but it happens every day, sometimes to little old ladies who simply haven't got the necessary hundreds of pounds to pay.
Put it down to experience and dont drink there again. If you have a bunch of mates who drink there, tell them to do the same. You wont get your money back, but you may cost them a few quid in takings.

They have the law on their side. As I said, it happens to hundreds every day. They ALL complain, they ALL end up paying. Lobby your MP.
