In March last year I caught a train from Manchester Piccadilly and parked in a nearby car park. The pay and display sign gave the option to pay by phone, but when I called the number a recorded message said the option wasn’t available at that site.
I tried this twice with the same result. This meant that the only option was to pay for parking through an app, but I don’t own a smartphone. I asked a passer-by for directions to another car park near the station, got back in my car and drove off as quickly as I could so I would have enough time to catch my train. My time in the car park amounted to 15 minutes.
