Maverick Martin Posted January 29, 2022 Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 Colin, it was Steve who had the misfortune of the fine I was just repeating part of his post and yes I agree there used to be and should be a period of grace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gummage Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 As you know Colin, farm succession can be a thorny issue. I have told my kids the only thing that is a certainty is that if they ever work for a parking “service” they will be disinherited.. fisherman1055, plaicemat, Jim and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve S Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Thistle Parking update, a correction and checking the app and documentation on the fine: I arrived at 13:26:05, left at 15:36:59, a total time of 02:10:54 seconds, I paid for 2 hours with a leaving time stated as 15:37 Based on the booking my leaving time was 15:37 i thought i was fine... (sorry), I left 1 second inside the stated leaving time. The 10:53 seconds was driving in the car park, faffing around downloading the PayByPhone app, setting it up for the car, paying which i did before leaving the car park. So was 53 seconds outside the 10 minute grace period. I didn't think I would certainly win an appeal even though I left before the stated leaving time expired and that's the point of this sorry tail. It's not a case of leaving before the stated leaving time you must deduct from that time the time in the car park before you actually paid! I made many attempts to speak to ParkingEye about it but I found it impossible to contact them, your only action appears to be pay or appeal, which is just how they want it. I won't be using the Thistle car park again, I'm not going to hand over any more money to them. Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
