Rope Walk Car Park - Sunday 2/9/18 15:01 - Sep 8 with 10555 viewsMisterBlue

Just had my mail delivered, only to receive a Parking Charge from NTC for "failure to clearly display a valid pay & display ticket".

I have lodged an appeal with them as neither ticket machine was working on the day in question, and I left a note on my dashboard to that effect.

However, I know there were several Town supporters parking there on that day, so am curious to find out if anybody else got a fine?

DId you not have a phone on you? It is very simple to pay by phone in the Rope Walk car park - as it's one I regularly use.

But not if you want to find an excuse to not pay though

The rcp parking in Ipswich charges £6 flat fee on a match day. Paying by phone on the website doesn't know that though and is still 80p per hour

sorry probably didnt make it clear in the OP that I attempted to make payment at the machines, however both were not working. I left a note on my dashboard to that effect aswell. And I know for a fact that there were at least another dozen or so cars with notes on display and also I spoke to 3-4 drivers who were also unable to get tickets.
I know some of those drivers were going to the match, so just wanted to find out if anybody else got stung by a fine?

Me personally, if i couldn't make payment I would leave.

Leave vehicle at your own risk with alternative payment method, pay the fine

Your OP was pretty clear. What isn't pretty clear is why you didn't pay by phone.

Yeah, I'm wondering if you're new here.

You don't just get to ask a simple question then expect floods of support regardless.

You get grilled, tested, judged, then there's a faux lifeline thrown out to you, like some kind of offer of hope, but it isn't really, it's a trick.

You think you gonna say the right thing, but you're wrong. You're not. You haven't a hope in hell son.

Good luck though.

Quite frankly I'm surprised none of the self righteous TW4TDers didn't attempt a citizens arrest.

Maybe they were on the Park and Ride or driving some car powered by nuts.

Is it private land then? I don't even know who NTC re if I'm honest.

A Google says it's a Norwich firm, but as we were 'attome' it's not that.

Yes, some of us could see that.

I don't know, go and read it?

What I'm sure you know is a payment is required, just leaving your vehicle without payment is stupid, specifically if an alternative payment is available.

Must be private or rented as your car tax is not sufficient enough to dump a vehicle.

Don't be daft.

Is it council owned or private?

I know the area well mate, I've parked behind the dove many times before, I use to use the filter lane way before the council changed it, stop barking up that tree pal.

What I don't get is people ignoring the basics. It's black and white, I've parked there many times before.

The 'Me me me' bit is cause he thinks I'm a troll FFS.

Rest is simple, read the signs.

How have they been caught when alternative payment is available, move on simple.
