Vehicle Control Services Recenzje 

This is how your contractor, VCS, treats grieving families at Belfast City Airport. Absolute disgrace.
Disgusting, heartless, and driven purely by corporate greed.
​I am absolutely appalled by the complete lack of basic human decency shown by Vehicle Control Services Limited (VCS). My 23-year-old daughter tragically passed away in a car accident just three months ago. On the exact 3-month anniversary of her death, while dealing with immense trauma and severe emotional distress, I had to drop off our niece at the airport, who had flown over specifically to support our grieving family.
​Due to sheer heartbreak and a complete lack of concentration caused by this tragic loss, I committed a genuine, unintentional mistake and briefly stopped for a moment in a restricted zone. This temporary stop caused absolutely zero obstruction to traffic and zero financial loss to the landowner. It was an honest mistake made by a father operating under severe psychological distres.
​I submitted a formal appeal, attaching my daughter’s Death Certificate as undeniable proof of our bereavement, expecting at least an ounce of empathy. Instead, I received a cold, automated copy-paste rejection. They threw in a single fake line of "sincere condolences" only to immediately demand money anyway, completely ignoring the tragic circumstances.
​This company has absolutely no compassion, no shame, and no ethics. They are nothing but greedy vultures preying on people’s worst misfortunes. Shame on you

Company of con people. I was given a ticket for accidentally turning into an entrance way at Bristol Airport (for a hotel car park), realising I was in the wrong place, executing a U-Turn and basically ticketed whist I WAITED for taffic to pass before pulling out. This whole process took about 30 seconds. I disupted it - twice, but because I used the word 'stopped' in the sentence ("stopped to wait for the way to be clear") I had apparently confirmed I had 'parked'. FFS. Having read some of the reviews here about the 'appeals procsess' being as flawed and corrupt, I have not bothered try again - they've twisted words to their advantage and frankly, it's put me of flying from Bristol Airport again.

Predatory, Aggressive Revenue Generation
An absolute textbook example of a predatory private parking firm. They rely entirely on aggressive technicalities and hidden contract traps rather than common-sense traffic management.

I was hit with a fine for a literal TWO-SECOND stop on an airport approach road. The vehicle paused just long enough for a passenger to step out, turned around, and drove off immediately. No hazard, no obstruction, and zero standard statutory road markings (like double red lines) to warn a moving driver.

VCS deliberately sets traps on roads lacking standard highway markings, hiding behind small-print signage that is impossible to read while driving, then using high-definition CCTV to slap people with massive fines the millisecond their wheels stop moving. They have no interest in fairness or safety; their entire business model relies on automated, zero-tolerance extortion of unsuspecting motorists.

An utterly shameless company. If you get a notice from them, check every detail, but be warned: they operate with zero flexibility and zero common sense.

26 second stop!

Stopped for 26 seconds, late at night to pick up my lad from work unknowingly in a no stopping zone. Hadn’t seen the one sign that I allegedly should have seen because it was placed on a sharp bend and was not lit at all. Having revisited the site my headlights would only have lit the sign up for 2 seconds. The irony being is that the sign needs to be read in order for the driver to comply and in order to do safely you must stop your vehicle. Unfortunately stopping means you commit the offence. This is basically legalising fraud but the company will claim that it is in the interest of safety etc.

Absolute disgrace of a company. Stopped on a quiet road for 20 minutes whilst other cars were all parked exactly the same way.. the reason was my 3 year old son was having an autistic episode so we had to walk it out and calm him down.. came back to a £100 fine.. I explained the situation and appealed.. they totally ignored it and wanted payment with in 2 weeks. This company should be looked into it’s a disgrace.

Had a very unpleasant situation with a fine from a vehicle with a rear camera, driven by a very miserable looking elderly man with glasses at Bristol airport. It was a situation of total entrapment, broke his own parking rules and he hid the car behind the road sign so you couldn't see it. Had a fine even though there were no road markings to indicate a situation of no parking. I had a sick child in the car and I asked the man if I could park there and he still gave me a fine. What a nasty bit of work, totally disgusting and the adjudication service we're biased and appalling. What a nasty company to be avoided.

Literal actual lying criminal scumbags who will end up in prison for fraud.

Slowed down in the entrance to Belfast City Airport as the directions to the car park which had been paid for is not fit for purpose and being fined £100. No one exited the car and no one was picked up simply trying to find out where to go.

Disgusting, despicable, awful, parasites stopped for less than a minute to pick up my poorly wife from the side of the road at Liverpool airport having paid for parking got a £60 fine appealed it now they’ve passed it onto a debt collector who is demanding £170 ! Praying on honest, hardworking people to fund their company ! Scum !

Dear Sir/Madam.

UPDATE 2-1-26. Owing to the fact that you issued me with a fifth unlawful P.C.N. on 29-12-25. I will now be making a small claims court judgement for £2500 which is £500 for each unlawful P.C.N. I await your response before making formal claim. I will also be seeking damages of £200 per week on top for every week that this 10 month saga has gone on. Vehicle Control Services Limited has until 7 January to address this matter and if it doesn't I will be seeking £10000 compensation.

LETTER BEFORE CLAIM.

Notice of making a small claim against your company.

In March of 2025 you cancelled 2 illegal parking charges against me after I had parked legally in council car parking spaces in the Iceland car park in Abertillery. You have been hounding me recently with threats of court action and bailiffs calling at my home for again parking in 1 of the council parking spaces in the same car park on 19-10-25. Then on 29-12-25 I again received a penalty for parking legally in the same council car parking space on 11-12-25. The South Wales Argus 4 times has reported on your illegal activity and I have contacted them again.

Gangsters/Shake down artists of the highest order! Despicable humans. Invasive Species

I received a Parking Charge Notice for allegedly stopping on a road edged by double red lines adjacent to Bristol Airport. The appeals process included an option that the vehicle was stationary while checking directions. This was the case. The CCTV photos showed reverse lights illuminated. VCS rejected the explanation improperly and unfairly.

Company have passed 2 parking fines across to myself from a deceased family member for having the same name and address. I cannot drive so how can I have 2 parking fines?? Affected my credit and mortgage application. Parasite of a business.

Went to pick up family from East Mids airport at 11.30 on Saturday night. raining also. Flight delayed so I pulled into the closed fuel station for a few minutes as could only see short stay parking signs. It was in complete darkness. Got message saying they had landed so went into short stay and waited for them and paid fee. Only there a few minutes. £60fine said there are signs. appealed. Increased to £100 . Tried to pay but didnt recognise details so sent cheq . Retd as said with debt collections. There was no lighting and no sign. Theives. How do they sleep at night.?

I have been charged by this company for stopping at Leeds Bradford Airport. I stopped involuntarily at the entrance to the car park as the barrier was not working properly and the entrance was blocked by another car. The passenger I was due to pick-up saw I was stuck at the entrance to the car park and climbed in my vehicle. Eventually the barrier opened and I drove through the car park to the exit, where I paid a £7 charge (even though I didn't stop in the car park). VCS have charged £100 for stopping in the wrong place to pick-up a passenger. I appealed to VCS but they rejected my appeal. They didn't address the points I had raised so I assume they didn't read my appeal or didn't understand the situation. They said I can appeal again but if the second appeal is unsuccessful I will be charged more. I have no confidence the second appeal would be handled fairly and so I feel forced to pay. I feel as though I have been mugged. I will avoid LBA in future.

Disgusting thieves. Waste these people's time and money as much as possible.

I gave 1star because there wasn’t one lower than that.I received a solicitors letter threatening to take me to court if I didn’t pay for a fine that was due, there was no communication from them whatsoever despite them saying there was ,I 100 percent never received any communication and being threatened with a court threat is totally out of order,so beware this company is just a money grabbing shower of ——.

Robbing bastards. Dropped my parents off at a Hilton hotel at Bristol airport, turned around outside the barriers and got done. Robbing. Bastards.

Just came out of Plymouth county court , having a claim against me by Vehicle Control Services, dismissed. Over a change notice at Bristol city Airport. They will lie to try and get money out of your over charge notices . But luckily the judge saw through them . Despicable company
