QR codes on parking machines “highly likely” to be a scam

QR codes have been stuck onto some of our parking machines today, such as this one pictured in North Lane.

Payment for parking by QR code is not something we offer at any of our car parks, or for on-street parking.

Please do not scan any QR code you see on a parking machine.

We have checked these stickers and they go to what appears to be quite a professional website, but it is NOT legit and is highly likely to be a scam where you will lose your money.

Machines across the district are being checked and any QR codes will be removed.

If you are paying for parking using your mobile phone, either call the number on the machine or download the Ringo app from your Apple or Android device.
