After I scanned the QR code on the meter, the app asked for credit card info, which I supplied. It wasn't until it was too late that I realized I had been redirected to an unlrelated app, fraavy.com, an entertainment app which will automatically charge your credit card $49.95 after 5 days. This is a scam and needs to be corrected and users of the QR code warned!
I Parked yesterday at yorgz packing garage on North Walnut Street Sunday 08/27/2023. This is considered a free parking day I believe. The system charged my debt card twice before being let out. Please may the person concerned address this issue. Thanks David
I received this parking violation ticket at 11 on October 11th and I wanted to appeal it. I was at work (at Starbucks off of Indiana Ave) while I received this ticket. I had the parking pass from Starbucks in my car and received a ticket. I have parked in this spot before while having the parking pass visible and not received a ticket. There were other cars on the street not aligned with the parking meters so I believe it was a mix up because I was aligned with the meter while I had the valid pass.
The green OK button on this meter is unresponsive, which means you cannot proceed with debit or credit purchases.
I parked downtown this past weekend to dine out with a good friend - the meter would not take my card at first, then it did, but wouldn't let me remove it (I though I'd have to leave it!). My friend did manage to wrestle it out of the meter, but we had to find coins to pay the meter - THEN - it only registered about half of the coins we inserted, so we lost $ parking so that we might support our local restaurants. Meter #76118 on the south side of the courthouse in front of Fountain Square. I suspect this is not the only defective meter? Might be time for tuneups?
We parked in parkikng zone 7653 yesterday (Aug. 29) from 3:20-4:20 pm. We tried to put in a $1 coin, but the machine didn't take, so we used quarters instead. The quarters worked, so we tried the $1 coin again, but the machine ate it again. Is there any way we can get our $2 back? I tried calling the office and they transferred me to the person who could issue a credit back, but no one answered the call and the voicemail hadn't been set up yet, so I couldn't leave a message. I appreciate your help.
Today, I parked on Walnut St, just outside Fountain Square. I initially got $8 in quarters nickels and dimes to feed the meter. At 9:45am, I put $6 of quarters, nickels, and dimes in the meter (which should have made my time expire at 3:45pm). This only gave me time until 12:03pm. I then went back up at 11:45am with my remaining $2 and put the 8 quarters in - which added 30 minutes to my parking time - at $1 per hour, this is incorrect. I then decided that the parking meter was not capable of taking change, so I got my debit card out and paid for the remaining part of the day - to take me to 5:17pm (really wanted 5:30pm, but was sick of fighting with the meter). At this point - I think that the amount I have paid for 7.5 hours is $12.30 (obviously the $0.30 is because I used my card - EVEN though I had change). The amount I should have had to pay for 7.5 hours is $7.50. Even if you give me a refund, I REALLY just want the meter fixed. I will take a picture of the meter before I leave tonight so you are able to determine which meter is malfunctioning. Please feel free to contact me at the email and phone number listed.
coins stuck. could only use my credit card. this costs extra. too many meters with this problem. so I'm starting to document each time I get one. this is 3 out of 5 parking attempts have I had to use my credit card cuz there's coins stuck in the coin. I don't know if it means it's full of corns whether there's a different problem.
