One Twitter user is behind several of Cardiff’s online complaint pages<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"\"

It has emerged that three of Cardiff\u2019s Twitter complaint pages have just one little bird tweeting behind the scenes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone has experienced daily inconveniences and injustices that push us to need a moan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, one Twitter user has taken it upon themselves to not only run just one account for Cardiff residents to complain to, but three.<\/span><\/p>\n

The person behind these pages is @PoorParkingCDF<\/a> (PPC) who explains, \u201cI was inspired by the way local people park and was starting to get fed up with it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Poor Parking Cardiff shares photos provided by followers of their parking grievances.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is PPC\u2019s hope that, \u201cIt will improve the way people park and hopefully make them more aware of their parking. As well as providing an outlet for people.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

However, PPC also runs Cardiff Bus Fails<\/a>, a page dedicated to highlighting passenger\u2019s worst experiences on Cardiff buses.<\/span><\/p>\n

PPC\u2019s newest page is called Cardiff Council Fail<\/a> and is based on people\u2019s complaints about the local council.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite being such a busy member of the twitterati, PPC very much enjoys running the accounts and hopes their followers enjoy what they do.<\/span><\/p>\n

PPC also notes that quite a few of their followers follow other complaint pages too, each specialising in different topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, Cardiffparking<\/a> also focuses on parking in the city but looks into the way it is enforced by the council. This twitter page even includes a blog with details on particular parking issues around Cardiff. <\/span><\/p>\n

There is also Filthy Cardiff<\/a> which shows the worst of Cardiff’s litter and aims to keep the city’s street clean. <\/span><\/p>\n

Cardiff residents are spoilt for choice by such pages, there is a community for most topics of complaint. <\/span><\/p>\n

So far PPC has yet to receive any complaints from angry parkers who have found their car on Twitter. <\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps they need their own Twitter page?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
