    Default Scooter towed from canary wharf

    Recently on a night out in canary wharf I had my scooter towed by a private company, canary wharf being private land. I was able to recover it at a cost of £180, I had parked there for 3 hours until I noticed that it had been taken.

    My scooter was parked off the road, next to a fence, not causing an obstruction. The reason that they gave was that it had been left unattended, and that there are signs as you enter canary wharf giving warning. Obviously when I parked I had not seen any signs other than one on the railing saying that anything locked to them would be removed.

    The following day I returned to canary wharf and saw a sign as I enterd which warned that it was not allowed for vehicles to be parked on the road and that any left unattended would be removed.

    My point being that I was not parked on the road, and that because of an absence of a comma on thier sign it implied that unattended vehicles parked on the road would be removed and not simply that any unattended vehicle would be removed. therefore I feel that removing my scooter was unfair, do I have a course to challenge this and how do I do it?.
