Park And Hide

Trusting Maia Lomio has been left with hundreds of tickets and 25,000 GBP in fines after a parking service she used for three years simply abandoned her car on a yellow line every day.

Maria, from Naples, Italy, had paid the parking service 2 GBP a day to meet her at her city centre office and then find a space for her car, bringing it back to her at the end of the day.

"I had no idea they were cheating me because until a few weeks ago the police were sending the tickets to the wrong address. I don't know what I'll do because the fines are worth twice what the car is," she explained.
