Subject: Host Park has launched and check out the newly added features in ParkMate. Be sure to update on 02/10/18
NEW PARKMATE
FEATURES AVAILABLE FROM 02/10/18 UPDATE
Have you ever paid for parking with the wrong rego….
perhaps selected the same product twice….
or had a transaction declined resulting in an invalid parking session?
If you’ve ever had to contact us for a refund request, we’ve felt your pain so have made some key changes to help reduce the need for refund requests.
Active Rego Change
If you have multiple vehicle registrations loaded to your ParkMate account and accidentally start a parking session with the wrong rego, you now have 15 minutes to change to the correct rego. You can change rego by selecting your current session and then adding your correct registration.
Duplicate Products
We have removed the possibility of purchasing duplicate parking sessions. No longer will you be able to accidentally purchase the same parking product, therefore only paying for the session you use!
Multiple Payment Options
You now have the ability to load multiple credit or debit cards against your ParkMate account. You can simply switch between payment options on the confirmation screen – just in case one of your cards is running a little low on funds.
Hi!
Thank you for your email.
Some options I would like to see:
- The app hears when you get a parking ticket and automatically transcribes all the swear words into a nice email and sends it to the owner of the parking space.
- A sister app called “ParkEnemy” where you can buy someone else’s ticket off them in real time (at an inflated price to make it less likely to happen, and they don’t know it’s happened), thus ensuring that person gets a ticket. Used when you see some idiot in their BMW taking up 2 spaces, or you just want to see your workmate crying at their desk.
- Upgrade of all parking metres to say things like “Hey you’re looking mighty fine today Tim” as you walk past them. If you have just paid $20 or more for a park it’s even more complementary “Those glasses really suit you Tim, have you lost weight?” etc.
- The app detects when you’re riding a bicycle and sends abusive text messages to your friends “Look at me being all high and mighty riding a bike, I should be in a car like normal people, who am I, Lance Armstrong??”
I have more ideas if you’d like to hear them.
Kind Regards,
Tim Harman
