wheel clampers
Saffy:
If someone ignores the signs and parks in a private carpark area and blocks access to my driveway I want them clamped and made to suffer for it - it's either that or a ram their car of my driveway - out of the carpark and into the road ..... again.

As I understand the situation when the police were present you were being prevented from removing your vehicle by the obstruction of the camer's van. This is duress, so i would contact the car dcompany for legal advice and tell them you are refusing to pay. Personally I'd have driven Blue into his damn van if he'd tried that c**p with me.
A few years ago I heard one story that made me smaile, a local farmer had his car clamped and towed when one of his kids borrowed it. He begrudginghly agreed to pay the release fee when they agreed to return the car. When they turned up with the truck carrying his car he then blocked the entrance to the farm and damanded

Get the local press involved - they will love the human angle of your new born being 'trapped by bully boy clampers' - imagine the headlines and the publicity for the clamping firm.
I think you showed remarkable and commendable restraint in the circumstances - if they had blocked me in with my children I would have had to pay for a new clamp - because I would have shoved it right up his arse !
Also, if it was paid on a credit card, could you not cancel the payment ?

to be honest if it was my card I would have canceld it the second I drove of the mood I was in.. as I lent the mony from a freinds card I dident want any greaf turning up at there door step or anything so just paying them back. the more I look back the more I cant beleve I was muinits away from being stranded 100 miles from home with new born and 20 quid to get home, very very frightning :evil: as someone els has said they have no exuse as clamping just prolongs the problem and using up space that other parkers may want to use.
If any of you have stories of how you delt with clampers id like to here them
im sure there are some good clampers stand off stories
without going over board id realy like to know the law beter to prevent this hapening again.. if may car was chaned to lampost and they had to cut the chain to have me towed away could Ihave them areseted for criminal damage ??
