“Welcome to our website.

It is well known and accepted that areas providing space for public parking demands constant management in order to maintain a trouble free and non-congested parking environment.

We recognise each sector as a unique challenge. The diverse problems demand a flexible approach and a fundamental understanding of safety and security issues.

We understand the complexities of the industry's wide-ranging needs and we offer a committed professional approach to the criteria surrounding parking management.

Noticeable signage holding clear instruction and warning displays are essential so that individuals are in no doubt as to what is expected of them within the designated area.

This is equally important in the retail service areas for loading and unloading purposes where such operations need to be smooth and trouble free for all parties concerned.

We are aware that interruptions can often mean a delivery is delayed or re-scheduled, in turn instigating problems with general logistics resulting in spoilt goods or incurred costs where vehicles have been unable to meet delivery/collection schedules.

Quite often parking areas are more problematic when the public and retailers both share the same perimeters. We are aware that extra vigilance is called for to avoid possible confusion or confrontation between parties.

Premier Parking Enforcement Officers and drivers are trained to associate with the general public and are able to cope with any crisis situations or unforeseen events thereby minimising the risks of disturbance to Land Owners and Property Managers.

Premier Parking Services UK Ltd are pleased to offer the Complete Solution to Controlled Parking Management for all clients in the commercial, retail and residential sectors.”

“I went to toy'r'us, spent £180.00, walked my son to JDKarting for a party , and back to my car within 5 minutes to continue shoppping for his present to find my car had been clamped. They recoreded it all on video and camera which is sick. I am also registered disabled and have a blue badge which they said made no difference as it is private land. I felt vulnerable and will never ever go there again. I will be appealing against this and will also be writing to Mps, councils etc as we cannot allow this bullish behaviour to continue..I think a protest would be a good idea.”

“After my wife fell foul of the draconian parking restriction now reinforced to the letter at the Peel Centre (she left the site for just 15 minutes, for which she was fined a total of £130) I contacted Gloucestershire Police. The police officer I spoke with expressed concern about the behaviour taking place at the Peel Centre by the employees of Premier Parking, but the police are powerless to act because it is within the letter of the law.

We plan to take the matter further with the local council, MP etc. This practice stands to blight the shops in the area.

To be honest, though, the only effective way of raising poeple's awareness of what is going on down there is to stage a public, legal demonstration on a Saturday morning on the pavement outside the pedestrian exit onto Bristol Road.

That would enable demonstrators to raise the awareness of motorists as to the risk they take by parking at the Peel Centre and then walking off site for even 30 seconds (these guys are just lying in wait, as has been reported here). Secondly, it would enable peaceful demonstrators to politely inform people about to leave the site that they stand the considerable risk of having their car clamped and/or towed away. Thirdly, it would upset the shops there, perhaps forcing them to re-think their presumed agreement to bring these people in.

To be honest, I regret having to even recommend this course of action, because it potentially harms Gloucester's already difficult position as a retail centre.

It is clear that the political leaders in the city need to take action here. For instance, bringing up the issue with the Peel Centre's landlords,who could just as easily brought in a supermarket-style policy of 2 hours free parking. That seems to work generally well, and there is a good argument to be made that it frees up people to visit shops in the town centre for a short while, enabling trade there to take place too.

Action is needed, because this draconian and predatory practice is taking place under the noses of our political leaders and law enforcement agencies with impunity.”

“I parked there the other week to go to college. When I got back my car had been towed all the way to weston. It cost me £380 to get it back. It's disgraceful. Hardly anyone parks there during the day so I wasn't stopping people from parking who were using the facilities. I am to scared to park there now even if I am using the cinema or whatever. Its ridiculous. There just a bunch of crooks. Something needs to be done quickly!”

“Anon of Glos seems to be on the payroll of Premier Parking
with his / her short and uninformed comments I think you need to check out the prices at JDR Karting (more like £10 ahead) why would ones ability to pay a fine(ransom) have anything to do with it! Are children unable to have birthday treats these days?
The Peel centre have an agenda to Teach the people of Gloucester a lesson about parking on their property and use this company to do their dirty work.
So i and plenty of my friends will be voting with our feet and will stop visiting the Peel centre until this practise stops!!”

“if some of you people who have left rediculious comments here actually read what the lady had said, she isnt desputing the fine at all, or the fact that she was park illegally, she is unhappy with the attitude and the way it was handeled, as i have been with clampers in the past also (at the brewrey in cheltenham) on my own personal note they should not be allowed to film you, i myself have never liked photos taken of me, im autistic and have been known to attack people pointing a camera at me, so would probably do the same to them.... i bet the law would say i would be the one in the wrong though! and stay on side of the clampers. never mind my own privacy!
the only reason clamping has started in the peel centre is because gloucester council are greedy with their parking charges in other carparks and people would rather park free and walk further into town. it costs more to park in gloucester than it does in cheltenham! its disgusting! and we are being forced to pay these outragously heigh prices.”

“Neh, what's up doc? Knows she shouldn't have parked there and if she'd been reading The Citizen lately would have been aware of the clamping and towing activity. From what she says, I feel sympathy for the woman who came out of Toys R Us with her child to find her car had been clamped. I am interested to know how her situation was dealt with as it seems she was shopping at the centre and parked legally.”

“The cost of the fine is disproportionate to the offence and can never be justified, regardless of whether she was illegally parked.

The only thing we as people can do is vote with our feet and shop elsewhere. The Peel Centre must have lost touch with its human side that it allows such practice in its name.”

“i agree they sit and wait and watch people to leave and within less than a minute they are like a rat scurrying to vehicles then run back like little kids cherry knocking”

“i have watched this money grabbing idiots, and they hide and wait to pounce, if the peel centre want customers, they need to stop this now, lets be honest apart from the cinema and toys r us theres nothing worth going there for, so they need all the help they can”
