Tesco parking (20 Viewers)

[idm1975]

Anyone had any charges come through to them for parking when games are on?

Not as yet, going to park there again tomorrow

 

[Qwerty70]

My mate is a steward and he has had a message advising him that the number plate recognition 'thing' is now working and he has to park elsewhere for today & future games.
I personally won't risk Tescos today.

New signs up now, spend £50 on match/event days if you want to park for over 2 hours. Need to keep receipts.

2 hrs is not long enough for shopping .. It is for men .. But no way is 2 hrs long enough for women .. If they enforce it there will be a huge backlash from genuine shoppers

They should do the two signs then.

2 hrs free parking for men and 2 days free parking for women.

Still don't think it will be enough, but may at least stop the odd one or two from complaining.

The arena park website has been altered and is very clear. Five hours normally and you need to spend £50 to park on match days,/ events. Receipts need to be kept for 14 days unless noted by park watch attendant and your registration noted. Marks and Spencer return policy is 28days

How long does it take to get out of Tesco? Might do the old click and collect and pick it up after the game.

 

[stevefloyd]

Lets face it if you did park at Tesco's it would in effect only cost £40 because you save a tenner on the rip off parking to watch a pile of shite at £23 in fact you might be better off to just go shopping !!

Interesting how they are going to prove that everyone who parks for over 2 hours on a matchday has spent £50 somewhere at Arena Park. They will have to issue Parking Charge Notices to everyone then accept appeals from people who have receipts.
Bear in mind they are required by law to issue you with a Notice to Keeper within 14 days of the alleged offence if they are detecting by ANPR rather than by ticket. DVLA are going to be well pissed off at having to deal with several hundred (?) pointless requests for keeper info from the parking co!
Suspect if you did get a notice without having spent 50 quid, there would be a loophole to get you out of it.

 

[idm1975]

Would rather spend £50 in store, which i did, after the game on stuff i need than give the robbing shites a 10 spot!

 

[skybluejelly]

well I will be parking there tonight ..with some conveniently placed mud splatters on the number plates

should be easy to park

Be less than 10k tonight so no exclusion zone and ti can park where you like.

I always think that.

Should they be telling people if there is no exclusion zone? I always thought if it was less than 10K you can park where you want but didn't know if they had to confirm etc?

Whose they? If its the Council, good luck with that

Didn't somebody on here a while ago say that the 10000 figure was wrong?

Isn't the usual thing to do go shopping in Tesco and keep your receipt?

There you go.

Surely null and void if less than 10k then?

You would think so but don't the signs have a next event date on them?

 

[Nick]

Will have a look later

Tonights restrictions are in place on the signs in Wheelwright Lane (Bedworth) . Not sure of the Coventry signs.

I just got a £100 parking charge notice for parking in Tesco at the Oldham game so would advise against parking there tonight.

That's a shame. That 100 quid could have paid for Becchio.

Maybe Breckies and Lunchies

 

[Otis]

Maybe Breckies and Lunchies

Have we those two on trial as well? What position do they play?

To be honest, with our injury problems I am not too keen on a player called Breckie being here.

Is Lunchies a friend of Steve Evans?

At least we have a cook at the back to cater for it all.

My son got one today from the Oldham game as well. I bought a £50 voucher from Tesco and have the receipt so will send pictures of these off in an email to the parking company so should be alright. No more Tesco parking however.

Anyone got any tesco shopping receipts from Saturday 17th September please?

 

[Gaz71]

Has anyone else had a parking ticket for match day parking at Tesco, I'm writing a letter contesting the £100 fine for being 18 mins over the allowed time, just seeing if anyone else has gone down this route?

 

[chiefdave]

Might be worth getting on to the shopping centre management. Apparently there have been a lot of complaints from genuine shoppers and they are getting the company in charge of parking to cancel a lot of tickets.

18 mins you should be fine.

You can always say that you were just about to leave when your so or daughter needed the toilet, so you had to pop back in, something like that and I think they would be fine about it.
