Getting a penalty charge while filming about penalty charges
Friday February 16th, 2007

I’ve just been filming a segment of the programme on Bank Charges on reclaiming unlawful penalty charges for ITV1 Tonight next friday night. I was at the Oxo tower in london, which was being used as a back-drop for interviewing a Professor of Banking. When I walked out with the film crew, we got back to the van, which was parked in the pre-organised place, only to see slap bang on the windscreen a ‘penalty charge’ for £100. Oh the irony!
