the 2 hour parking next to dollar giant at commercial and broadway location
all metered up!
ridiculous !!!!
this city is greedy! haha

Gumby 07-14-2011 09:28 AM

Worst is paying the meter for parking, then getting a ticket after the meter expires. If you're gonna get a ticket anyway, might as well not put money in the meter to begin with!

That's why I only pay by phone now. Not only do I not have to carry change, it'll send me a text when it's running out, and I can call in to top it up if I need over the phone. And I've found that they never say a thing about remetering - I've parked at a spot for like 5 hours when it said 2 hour limit on the meter.

I've tried that before via pay by phone, pay for more time after the 2hour limit and it wouldn't let me because of the 2hr limit.

Frick, I've always wanted to sign up for Verrus, but never got around to doing it. I'm signing up right now.

I haven't tried paying more than the 2 hr limit in one go, but when I call back to add more time, it's ok.

It took me maybe 5 minutes of my time the first time I set it up. After that - each call takes less than a minute. It'll remember your licence plate and credit card when you call, all you have to do is add the 5 digit number of the meter, and how long you want to park for. It's exact as well - if you want to park for 10 minutes at $2/hr, it'll only charge you $0.33 - no service charge.

Yea that's what I did, would not let me add more time after I called back, gave some voice prompt about 2hr limit and my vehicle was already registered at that spot for the time limit already recently. This was a spot downtown.
