点评:There are other lovely Welsh villages where parking doesn’t cost £170.00 for two hours. The village hall and the notorious “Initial Parking Ltd” who operate their car park (the only easily findable one in town) are profiteering massively from having machines which won’t accept cash or card. An app which takes ages to download in a near zero phone reception area (lots of confused Parker’s trying) and then refused to accept bank authorised payments (screen grabs proving it ignored). You appeal with proof. They don’t tell you it’s declined for two months(“we emailed refusal”. No you didn’t). Then you get a letter (not an email) demanding £170.00 “or else”!
Village hall owners do not reply to emails requesting help either. Are they in on the scam also one wonders?
The internet rating sites - Google, Trustpilot - Parking review sites etc are rammed with complaints about these people & Abersoch in particular. A fabulous business model - make it impossible for honest people to pay so you can turn a few coppers into £100s in seconds. DVLA supply your details to them for £2.50. Two months later it’s £170.00 - and it’s apparently legal! AVOID ABERSOCH UNTIL THEIR COUNCIL STOPS THIS HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
翻译:威尔士还有其他一些可爱的村庄,停车两小时的费用远低于170英镑。村公所和臭名昭著的“Initial Parking Ltd”(镇上唯一一家容易找到的停车场)运营者,正通过不接受现金或银行卡的自动取款机牟取暴利。他们下载的app需要很长时间,而且手机信号几乎为零(很多困惑的停车者都在尝试),然后他们又拒绝接受银行授权的付款(屏幕截图证明他们忽略了付款)。你拿出证据申诉。他们两个月都没告诉你被拒了(“我们发邮件说拒付了”。你没有)。然后你收到一封信(不是邮件),要求你支付170英镑,“否则”!
村公所的业主也不回复求助邮件。他们是不是也参与了这场骗局?
互联网评级网站——谷歌、Trustpilot——停车评论网站等——充斥着对这些人,尤其是阿伯索赫的投诉。这真是个绝妙的商业模式——让老实人根本付不起钱,这样你就能把几块铜板在几秒钟内变成几百英镑。DVLA 以 2.5 英镑的价格向他们提供你的个人信息。两个月后,价格就涨到 170 英镑了——而且这显然是合法的!在 ABERSOCH 的市议会阻止这种公路抢劫之前,千万别去那里。
