[Closed] The company on my street, bastids!!!

let down tyres.....

key doors/wings.....

glue in the lcok.....

use your imagination. don't get angry, get ANGRY!!!!

Cheeky buggers! Call the council?

Our car park has been covered in snow and ice since a week before Christmas, we're still using it.

Park your car in the middle of the top of the road and then take yourself out for the evening. 😉

Surely if you need a permit to park, then all the cars are getting tickets for illegal parking yes? If not, call the council, pronto 🙂

Flat tyres for the one in the disabled spot.

I am sure Flash will be along soon to tell you to stop whining soon. 😉

so if they don't have permits I assume they are not just parked inconveniently but also illegally?

call it in, get the traffic wombles round for a good round of pin the ticket on the car...

Rin the council, they ticketcars usually,and ask them to bring some grit with them.

Can't really do the above as I would be prime suspect Alpin but after calling the council they have started to log a case. However the problem is that no traffic wardens are allowed out in this weather as they might slip, looks like they will have to get some training to walk in the snow and ice. Anyways the bastids do this kind of stuff all the time, an seem to have an attitude that it doesn't matter, well it kind of does as what is the point of me paying for a permit?? Their car park is down a shallow hill which other cars go down as there is another residents car park at the bottom. I will have victory tho as I know Im not the only who is getting pissed about this..

if i had a designated parking space and someone blocked it or parked in it, i would park at the side of them blocking them in until they apologised......... 8)

Find a 4x4 and a chain. Tow them all back into the carpark.

aren't they spreading gold dust now?

I don't believe that tyre letting down is an offence as it doesn't cause any damage does it!

wait till night fall, then nip out under all the cars and gently pop the coolant pipes off the bottom of the rad.

anyone points fingers at you - 'must have been the cold weather guv, caused the coolant to freeze and expand and the pipes to contract and pop off...'

(obviously i dont condone vandalism at all, exhaust legal avenues first (then do it anyway 😉 )

Arrange to have all your neighbours park in their car park next week.

I might add the street is a terraced street with parking bays either side and the company is directly in front of my house. There is a one hour only bay which if I park in I will be booked on the spot due to having a permit. The company use this as their overflow and park there all day!! hence them being BASTIDS!!

wee on their tyres ( and in their gas tanks )

shovel snow all ruond their cars so they have to dig them out 🙂

wee on door handles...

+1 for block em in
+1 for key the doors
+1 for something more delightful for the one in disabled spot...

Are the road markings visible? If not then they can't *really* be committing an offence as they can't see where is/isn't restricted (even though they know they are being a bit naughty). I think in the current conditions a bit of understanding might be in order (but parking in the disabled spot is a bit off - perhaps you should go and ask them to move that particular car).

Sorry but letting down tyres, glueing locks and popping off coolant pipes are all fairly daft ideas if you want the cars to move!

put potatoes up their exhaust ports "put a rocket up their socket". 🙂

However the problem is that no traffic wardens are allowed out in this weather as they might slip, looks like they will have to get some training to walk in the snow and ice

Like you could have to allow you to travel to the Gym then you wouldn't have lost your space?

Only joking mate - I have a bowling club in my street and during the summer you simply cannot get parked for old duffers in grey slacks. During the winter I genuinely have to plan my vehicular movements on Monday evening{dominoes night}, Tuesdays{Ladies night - no idea what that involves!} and Thursdays{darts} because of the amount of incoming cars. Not to mention streams of cabs/minbuses taking folk to private functions.

Double park so they can't get out and refuse to move it. When I tell people I don't need my car for a week they manage to remember not to park there next time. 🙂

Block 'em in.

Sorry but letting down tyres, glueing locks and popping off coolant pipes are all fairly daft ideas if you want the cars to move!

true, but if they won't respond to being asked to move then revenge is the only option!

to quota Apu:

'hey, hey! I have asked you nicely not to mangle my merchandise, now you leave me no choice but to ask you nicely again'

automatic centre punch in the corner of all their windscreens 😈

buy a couple of bangers in a week or two & then park them very badly in the entrance to their car park one lunchtime - just coz it's a bit snowy their is no excuse to flout the parking rules

[img] [/img]

BURN EM!!!!!!!

when the snow clears park across entry to said car park, when they ask you to move say "sorry its the only space available"

Get some A4 avery labels

Print a load out with 'I park like a ****' (use expletive of your choice) in the biggest font size that will fit.

Firmly affix label to windscreen directly infront of steering wheel and drivers side window

Retire to a safe distance

you may be known to the council, but what about some of the local youths? or that other you that wears a hoody.

oh, and if you piss anywhere make sure you piss on the drivers door handle.

I retract my earlier post, +1 Stompy

m_f - doesn't matter if the markings are visible or not, still illegal. Ignorance is no defence and all that.

I was going to suggest the potato up the exhaust, but someone beat me to it.

I'd be out clearing paths and ensuring small walls of snow and ice surrounded their cars.

Pour cold water around the wheels and then watch them try to move when it freezes.

post their phone number on here and we can all call them

Big black permanant marker pen - change the numbers / letters on their number plates and then anonymous call to plod about suspect stolen cars in your street. Suggest you do one or two a day

It appears that some of them may visit this site as the cars at fault are starting to thin out... mmmmm I wonder, anyway seems they have found the big lad who works there to grit the path and shovel away the ice! bought bloody time. As for the ideas above they have a least made me laugh about the issue and our car is back out the front of our house again, ace.

Cheers 2hottie..

Use a bucket as a toilet, chuck it out of the window, make sure your around to watch them 'de-ice' their car windows.

Too late, don't do as I suggest if it's your own car!

Don't let them get away with it!!!! chase them down,screaming, preferably naked.... maybe wearing make up..... 😕

A load of road maintenance types rented a house on my small road in London parking all their vans there taking up all the spaces - must have been 8 in one house sometimes. So we formed a committee...and got them to car share when coming to the road.

boiling water over the frozen windscreen ?

true, but if they won't respond to being asked to move then revenge is the only option!

I'm not saying [i]any[/i] revenge is out. But actions based around making the vehicles undrivable seem a little self-defeating.

i used to work in an office in Didsbury where the surrounding residents were constantly inconvienenced by morons from our place parking accross driveways and generally being lazy tw*ts.

Some cars got keyed, tyres let down etc.

But the most affective response was when the residents organised a wheelie bin blockage of the whole road one morning. No one could get in to either the road or the office car park. It was very amusing and the morons actually gave them a break for a bit. But they were back to their inconsiderate ways a few weeks later though.

Look these will even match the Wardens uniforms.

My chest is hurting just reading this, I'd be going mental anf end up in trouble again.

Keep Spraying brake fluid over them they will
not be coming back after that.

surely you can park in the one hour only space as the traffic wardens aren't allowed out? or was that a fib?

Saga update, just had a knock at the door from one of the high up marketing types lol, she was keen to say sorry and explained that one of their staff wrote off three BMW's when crashing down the hill into their carpark yesterday therefore they closed it on H+S grounds, fair point however explained that it happens all the time and the fact they shouldn't take the piss! and yes no traffic wardens for the next few days as they can't get about!!??! I would have parked in the one hour bay but it's full of their cars!

Name and shame the company at the very least.

Go and park your car right in front of their main doors (in the empty car park), find a nice spot where you'll get in their way.

Capt, love to however I reckon the mods wouldn't like that so all I can say is it's a marketing/advertising company based in Preston Lancs and the company name starts with an H.

Invite millions round for a summer BBQ and use their car park fairs fair.

On a street which might be named after a famous British Lord and the defeater of lots of naughty frenchmen by any chance?

First time find the owner and politely ask them to remove the vehicle and not come back (you've done that). Second time write a message in lipstick across the windscreen "in future this illegally parked vehicle will be removed", take photos for the owner. Third time get a trolley jack and a few neighbours to push - do use the jacking points as conrods hitting the sump are noisy and might wake babies. Leave the offending vehicles blocking the road and take photos of the operation as proof you did no damage. Forth time... .

I'd not give any more away on your location mate, thieving scum can use Google Earth also. 😕

Would that not be the traffic offence of obstruction?

Could it be [url= http://www.heckford-advertising.co.uk/ ]THIS[/url] one?

If not then do ignore me.

Edit: so why won't Google Earth link my page? 🙁

I do hope this pic works...

Excellent 😀 A friend of a friends car.

Local paper.

LOL @ the blocked by snow door way...

Excellent! go out and cover one of the cars in snow making sure you pack it down hard. Remember to pour cold water around the tyres first.

DO what we do at work when our vans can't get in our yard by tools parking across the yard entrance.

Big Knob* the ****ers!

Cut a numberplate size piece out of a cardboard box.
With a big black marker pen, draw a huge penis on said piece of card.
Use Gaffer or parcel tape to attach said card to number plate.
Sit back and smirk when they can't understand why people are looking at them strange/flashing lights/ tooting horns at them...

Do they have a security camera covering the outside of the front door to their office, if not then superglue the lock so the ****ers cant get in to the office when they turn up for work in the morning 👿

Little blocks of wood about 50mmx20mm, 12mm thick with a lathe nail sticking through placed under their tyres, so when they drive off, they stick, the tyre will not deflate until they pull them out, which they will have to as the bump as the wheels rotate will make it too uncomfortable to drive. In this weather it will not be until they go onto clear roads so they will not know where it came from. I worked on a job in London in the early nineties where the site agent used to get this several times a month.
Don't to it to more than one unless you can handle the suspicion & accusations.

Get some stickers made up (about 12" square is nice), politely reminding them "This is a permit holders only parking area, please do not park here again with out a valid permit" carefully attach these to the offending vehicles windows.

Ok this sounds a little tame but here's the kicker, you have em made with extra sticky glue and out of the thinnest tissue paper you can get. Sit back and watch em spend the next hour peeling off 5mm long shreds of paper which then stick to them!

Its a nightmare trust me! i used to go to a company that does exactly this and got done a few times.*

Love this thread, loads of nice inventive retaliatory measures. The sticker on the windscreen is a beaut, and water on the locks would be good; fill an empty washing-up bottle with water and leave it outside for a bit to cool down nicely, then you can squirt it right inside the locks and all round the handles and inside the door closures. Should cause a little distraction...

Damage etc is all a bit mmmmm childish sticky signs on windscreens works ok but might bounce back on you blocking the entrance will get their backs up for sure but are all to much like hard work

They are a marketing/advertising company you say , any idea who they do work for? do you or the people you know use thier products or services? if so contact the MDs and everybody else you can find by email or even post if your feeling flush and let them know your not happy possibly hint that you might ramp up your campaign to include the local press websites etc

Go round and remove all the wiper blades from each of said cars,place in large bin liner,mix in a few dog turds and hot water give a good shake,then leave by their office door.
Its not theft or damage.....probably

we used to push cars around on iced roads, get about 4 or 5 people and it's fairly easy...just push them into the middle of the road, even better if you can push 3 or 4 cars together so they are blocking each other in...obviously leaving your exit clear!

Lots of contact e-mails on their website (if it is the guilty party), it would be a shame if they started getting loads of spam. Don't get mad, get even.............

Grow up. The poor sods need to work.
They turn up for workk, car park closed...WHAT ELSE ARE THEY GOING TO DO?

At least they turned up for work in this weather, cut em some slack you miserable gits.

WHAT ELSE CAN THEY DO?....They could clear the frickin car park CHB! It wouldnt take them long between them.
