or a ( short ) tale of two Tescos
Over the last few weeks i have visted two Tesco stores, one just off the A50 at Utoxeter, and the other just off the A42/A453 (?) at Ashby de la zouch.
both of these stores car parks lacked any signs of any PPC involvement, and the lampposts were not plaugued by PPC notices.
But by some miracle, without a profesional car park management company, cars were parked where they should be, the disabled bays didnt appear to be being abused, and no one was blocking any one else, or causing an obstruction.
Which means that either the drivers in/around Utoxeter/Ashby are exceptionaly good at parking, or the PPCs are as much use a chocolate tea pot when it comes to 'real' car park management.
regardless of the above, a big thumbs up to whoever it is at those stores keeping the ppc menace at bay, and showing respect to their customers.

I travel a lot, and visit a lot of tesco's because they do a £3 meal deal when I can't be bothered to make sarnies., and I always fuel up to get points. Anyway these ones don't scammers (that I recall) in and they run just dandy
Neath, Llansamlet, Pontardawe, Ystalyfera, Carmarthen, Haverfordwest, Cardigan, Newtown, Welshpool, Brislington, Cardiff, Bridgend, Pembroke
So the only ones I seem to remember to have ones are, and there problems at each of them
Swansea, Llanelli, FforestfachExcel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?0
