In many cases councils aren't scrupulous, they're chancers, especially when it involves parking.

I can't sit still while a bureaucrat flouts their remit and offers faulty evidence which changes common law. Government officers, even in council offices, should observe their remit and do their thing properly. I've escalated. At least, in my opinion I have.

Did anyone try your parking space? I read that this is an online parking marketplace where you can pre-book and save on parking spaces across the UK. But before using it, I'd like to find out about real people's experiences.

Council authorities are increasing parking charges this month by a whopping 60%

They made almost £2billion in 2022-23.

"Faced with soaring debts and limits on the amount by which they can raise council tax, local authorities will this month increase parking charges again, by as much as 60%."

I am a registered user of this app and had to use the app to park the car close to the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead last year. I don’t know about savings. To park the car for the day was £85 in charges.

Last year I exceeded the free parking time allowed at South Mimms Service Station by 10 - 15 minutes and was fined. The fine was reduced to £60 if paid immediately, a painful lesson.
