Oh dear. As I thought, no-one who uses ‘Ringo’ etc is being overcharged. Apart from in the paranoid heads of those who are too thick to understand the T&Cs that they willingly agreed to.  In which case, they really aren’t safe to be on the roads...

You cannot ignore the law. It doesn't matter what info you are given to make you aware, it is not the law. When you buy a parking ticket, you are charged according to the fees set out on the ticket machine, and that is reflected in the Traffic Regulation Order. So taking leatash example 2hrs for £2.40, thats it, they are not allowed to charge you any more, it is ultra vires if they do. If you ...

At the meeting, Mr Phipps had said: The proposed mini golf course will create 4.5 jobs, Whats that 4 and a midget ???

Thanks for the info Leatash, but that’s not an overcharge because I’m made well aware of the costs, including the minor charges for any optional additional texts, as they’re all clearly identified when one signs up.  It can’t be that, so what does majorp mean by “overcharge”? If I’ve been overcharged then, as he requests, I’ll readily ‘Agree’ with his post

Plans for a revamped 12-hole safari-themed mini golf course in Dawlish are set to draw the backing of planners after councillors visited the site. Following the site visit, a report to councillors says that the revised plans have reduced the number of outside tables to six with 24 covers, and clearly identified the cycle route, the course would have 12 holes, and that the safari animals ...

They charge a fee of 20p and add it to the cost of parking so lets say 2 hrs is £2.40 ringo charge you £2.60 the extra covers the text you recieve telling you when your time is up and there fee for the transaction i personaly see no problem with it.

Before I offer my assistance to majorp, could he please advise us of where he believes the overcharge lies. Then I’ll be able to tell him whether or not I may have been overcharged. I’ve used ‘Ringo’ only a couple of times, but regularly use the ‘PayByPhone’ iPhone app in Exeter.

They charge a fee for the transaction 20p i believe, they used to make it clear during the booking that this fee was being charged i used to use it a lot but havent for about a year they were contracted to DCC so i presume they collected the payment for DCC and there fee is how they make money all fair and square i would say. I was certainly always aware that this fee was being charged and found ...
