Beat the Clampers or Pay up
It seems there is a get out clause to beat the clampers after all! Mind you it takes staying power and time to do it. Arriving back to a car park and finding that your car has been clamped is not only annoying but damned expensive to boot.
In the last two days two people have been so persistant that their clamped cars went nowhere and the clampers had to just wait in the hope of getting their money.
What did they do? Its simple, they sat in their cars and wouldn’t budge while the clampers fumed.
Of course this is ok if you have nothing better to do, the woman, a district nurse on her rounds sat for six hours in the car park which was designated for the use of the residents she was visiting, even though she had other visits to make she stayed put and flummexed the clampers.
A man who had been in the synagogue came out to find his car clamped, he sat in his car refusing to budge for 36 hours the charge was finally waived.
Now as the fine can be over £300 you have to decide whether losing a days work is worth it to save that amount but if others can get away with it why not you!
Heres another way I just copied this from another post.
If you can get the clamp off without damaging it, no offence is committed. Easiest way is normally just to let your tyre down, slip the clamp off then pump it back up or swap for your spare. Since the outrageous fee they charge you for removal cannot legally be called a fine (as private companies cannot fine you), they always frame it as a ‘removal fee’. As you didn’t get them to remove it, you don’t need to pay. Hurrah!
