Other than the usual response we see on their facebook page The Range have attempted to explain why they use Parking Eye in the Wigan Evening Post tonight.
In the article the spokesperson said:-
"“Working with Parking Eye, a specialist car park management company, we introduced a parking management system into our car parks as there was a serious problem of motorists parking and leaving their vehicles there all day.
“The parking management has only been introduced into stores that have had specific problems for example stores close to hospitals, town centres, etc.
“This parking abuse was preventing genuine customers finding spaces.
“We still offer completely free parking for all, however to counter parking abuse, we have set a maximum stay time.
“There are signs at the entrance to and across the car parks that clearly highlight the terms and conditions of use.”
" We still offer completely free parking for all" ???? Interesting.

Here is the article

And the responses are on the old advice of ignore parking eye, hope someone will go on there and correct thatWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

Gawd she was with a disabled person as well and the point has been completely lost on the journalist and the Range.
