More On Clamping

clamp2

We’ve written before about the wheel clamping behind Rayleigh Station. We know quite a bit about what’s going on there - one person recently got stung for almost £500 there.

But we know that another person has recently got her money back. She told us:

Hello .
.
I got my money back but only from the Credit card company via the Consumer credit agreement act 1974. I just got the original debit amount not my costs but that is better than nothing.
I had to issue a CCJ against LBS before they would help me.
Reason given for the refund was due to the decision of the court - whatever that means?. I sent them loads of copies of bank statements, receipts, emails, court papers and other information I had managed to collect along with my letter and that was the response the credit card company gave.
.
It took me 9 months!.

Also - and this is important - the information we have is that the clampers are NOT entitled to clamp vehicles where that car is in the photo - that’s a highway.
