My car clamped in Papatoetoe 8/2/2019
Yesterday evening Friday 8 the February 2019 , I was driving home after work. On the way I had to drop this application form to Kipmacgrath education center in Papatoetoe.
Road was busy and I missed the turn so I dove bit more further and turned my car towards cheese cake shop in Papatoetoe.I stopped the car at Alignz recruitment parking spot. Time was 5 .35 and both Alignz recruitment and asset finance place was closed. There was plenty of parking was there. Then I walked out of the car and walked towards kipmacgrath I dropped the application and came back within 3 minutes when I come back my car was clamped. There was a person walked towards my car and looked at me when I get out from the car but said nothing.
This person asked me is this your car?
I said yes and he asked me to read the notice on the door of Alignz recruitment and said I parked on a private property and have to pay 200.00 to release the clamp.
I tried one hour to explain him that it was only 3 minutes and business was closed at the time.
This heatless person didn't listen and at the end I had to pay 200.00 get my car release.
So be careful if you are parking those places and even crossed the road they will clamp your car.
I even called owner of the Alignz recruitment and he said it not him who hired this Elite parking services. It was building owner even he tells them still they will not let you go.sometimes customers who comes to see him and after cross the road to get something they clamped.
This is not fair.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
