What is the PbP app your mother used ?

Your GSV link only shows one car park, so where is the other one ?

Hopefully this works this time. For some reason if I share using add image it doesn't work so I can only copy the links straight into here. The app was MiPermit

Other car park

Please tell us where the other car park is in relation to the Ipswich Street one. The PbP apps use GSB_V to position the car in relation to car parks. We have seen them cause confusion where there are two numbers for a car park site  for some reason.

OK. I have to say that that is a substantial distance apart, for a wrong selection. I don't know how the MiPermit app works, but reviews on Trustpilot are 90% unfavourable ! Here in Cheshire East council car parks, Ringo is the app.

All I can say is that you need to investigate how the app placed the phone at one car park when it was physically at another one. These apps use GSV to position the phone, then normally tell you the car park name and then one selects a car to park, as one can have more than one on the app.

I suggest you submit reps on the basis that the app placed the car at the wrong car park, but despite this, the correct payment was made so the council did not lose any money, and clearly there was no intention to avoid payment.
