General Discussion Area / Parking Eye

« on: 14 August 2014, 15:36:46 »

Afternoon all,has anyone had dealings with these idiots.To cut a long story short,every two months.I go back to Birmingham to visit friends and relatives.As i now live in hartlepool,and have done so for the last year.I always stay at corley services,M6 days inn hotel.As i am a smoker(i know)and they have smoking rooms.I have just got my sixth parking ticket,from them.Despite me putting my reg in to there system,making six appeals on there web site.And the manager of the hotel,contacting there tech department.No contact number,only automated to pay by card.Or address to send a cheque to,you don't seem to be able to talk to someone.This is now beginning to piss me off,ok they have all been cancelled.When either i or the hotel have sent an email appeal.I would like to do something about it,as i consider it harassment now.Any advise welcome,or contact numbers for them.Or if anyone else has had dealings with them.Thanks for reading,Dean

Had the TRE done on the drivers side today.Just been out to check the work,took the wheel off.It looks like my numpty mechanic has,whacked my 4 month old disc with his hammer.On the top and slightly on the side,of the inner edge.If that makes any sence,so i suppose i will have to replace it. Dean
