Tesco parking : Thu May 19, 2011 7:09 pm  

Does anybody know about parking in Tesco. I believe they cone an area off at the rear of the their carpark on match days.....is it open to the public or do you need a match day pass?

The coned off area is permit only.
All other areas is subject to a maximum stay of 70 minutes , stay longer and you will get a hefty fine.

did you know that unless the fine is from the police or the council you don't have to pay it! they can only fine the driver, not the owner & have to be able to prove who parked it, by law you have no obligation to inform the enforcement company who was driving. my wife parked my car at a certain ten pin bowling establishment near where i live one day to collect the kids from school, there were no signs saying do not park, the place had closed down months before, i recieved a letter demanding £200 for parking there. i was out of the country at the time in perpignan watching the wire and informed them of the same. i also took some advice from a solicitor friend advising me as long as they cannot prove who was driving they don't have a leg to stand on! as i don't have to tell them who was driving.

now if they clamp you your fooked!

I work for Tesco but not in Warrington. But most Extra stores have the ability to clamp people wether they do it is another matter.

You take the risk you pay the fine if they clamp you.

Quite often in the store, the member of staff on customer service will read out a registration plate number/describe a car. I've always wondered why but I guess it's because of people exceeding the parking limit.

The biggest problem at Tesco, though, is by far their lack of shallow trollies. God damn you thieving scrappers!

Re parking.. Who is managing the £4.00 parking on the site opposite to where KFC used to be?
Past few years it has been £2.00 or so to park during a game, now it's almost doubled during match times, but still cheapo during the day / non match days.

Thought it was travelling friend's chancing it at first but they don't appear to be going away.
