Just wondering...

How much would it cost to take out a full page advert in a well-read paper (such as The Sun), and use that to say in big letters that you do not need to pay private parking tickets.

There is so much misinformation in the media (see the recent Jeremy Vine interview), that the word needs to get out there big-style
One important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.

    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    Seems reasonable!:p
  • How about getting Martin Lewis to put something in his weekly email to advise people and also get them to spread the word to friends & colleagues ?

    As you are the subject matter experts, I will leave it to you to suggest the wording to Martin.

    I agree that it wouldn't have the same impact as an advert in the sun but hey....it won't cost anything.

    HTHs.
  • As the readership is over million this would be a good start.

    way to go. it would push the message for free (very mse) in a way that 'google is yr friend' can't.

    difficult to quantify the no. of people who would be educated by such a move but IMO not vastly different from a d.mirror full pager.
