APCOA should be absolutely hunted out of Ireland. Despicable company

Clamped by APCOA outside my home at 5.15am this morning. I was told my permit wasn’t displayed properly. I showed the patrol officer there and then that I have a valid permit. He still refused to remove the clamp. €125 to release it and appeal afterwards. Seems a bit unfair.

Anyone who takes a job as a clamper is an empty, soulless human being

They are a predatory shower of bastards. They wait around Douglas like buzzards.

Been clamped by Apcoa 4 times and got refunded 4 times One time was because the colour of the car was wrong on the system, they decided the car was a different colour one time

Just keep a battery powered angle grinder in the boot of your car
