Hoping to go to the Betis friendly. Was on holiday for darlo friendly. Is it easy to find parking nearby? Free preferably!
 


Got my ticket today. Finish work at 5 in Newcastle then drive down the A1. Probably not get there before 6.30pm. Plan on parking in one of the supermarket car parks!
 
Pub car park and another hard standing car park behind it. Supermarkets and eateries too although they can be dodgy sometimes.

I don't know myself, but check signs on supermarkets / larger store car parks, often have cameras that auto fine you if stay over a set period, say 2 hours.
 
Re fines, if the carparks are private and not run by the local council you can rip the "Request for Payments up" because thats all they are, they might look very official with a threat of coart action resulting in a bad credit reference, unless your find by the council or get ticketed by the local plod your fine. So to speak. I know its happened to me more than once.

Is that true? Have you ignored them and never heard anything else?

My other half (no) got one and we paid up! I do have an excellent credit rating I would not want to jepordise on something silly.
 
They work on a 50% fear basis. Presuming a percentage will pay no matter what thru fear. As long as it isn't a ticket from the Police or the council you are fine. You will get incredibly threatening letters, ignore them.
