Carparks

[Skol]

In the past I have done a notice drop advertising the carpark to rent in nearby office buildings, and a notice on the parking space. Try also carpark.co.nz or trademe or the newspaper. Local public noticeboards too. If Tournament or Wilsons or someone else run the parking in the building, it is easier to go into their pool and get a monthly return through that.

Tournament parking which has been mentioned a couple of times here are nothing but thieves. I parked (in one of my scant wretched forays downtown) in one of Tournaments carparks.
I didn't have the right change so got a coffee and change to feed the meter and came back within minutes to find my vehicle clamped. A fat very unpleasant islander told me pay $150 or get towed. I paid the fatman $150 and told him what I thought, rang Tournament when I got home but they didn't give a s**t. That's their modus operandi.
Tournament was subsequently the subject of a lengthy Fair Go enquiry. Kevin Milne requested viewers email their complaints, there were heaps. I did get revenge though. My wife thought I would be on TV because they may have had cameras.

Later in the day I passed the same carpark and saw a woman who was in tears. I asked her what the problem was and she told me her car had been towed despite having paid the correct amount and displayed her pass. Tournament are in cahoots with a towing company, First Recovery.

Scumbags. Should put them on scumbag of the day.

Yeah but they run the buildings well for all the carpark owners. Your $150 went into our kitty thanks.

Hope you enjoyed what I did to Tournament, cost them s***tloads more than $150.
I enjoyed it myself, nothing like sticking the knife in.

Tournament won't last the distance doing business like that, probably take you down with them.
