I had an email a few weeks back from FC, stating an offer on triple FC miles for purple parking,can't see anthing about it on the FC web site.

Does anyone know the dates please? I made a recent booking which has only had the normal miles awarded and i'm sure i booked during the promotion period.

Want to check before i submit missing miles claim and wait for weeks. :-)

Thanks

If it if the same offer I received on the (27th July) it was for bookings made before 24th August, so imagine the booking period was between 27/7 and 24/8 for travel before 24/8/10 and it had to be booked online, there was a link provided but not sure if you had to use that.

I imagine if you had just happened to have booked purple parking before hand and it fell within the offer period you wouldn't get the triple miles.

Thanks for the info

Typically i made one booking on the 16/07 which we have already used. The second i made on the 24/07 for travel in Sept.

I have just rang purple parking and they suggested i cancel the 24/07 booking then redo it via the web site and i will get the triple miles.


terms are bookings must be made 27/07/09-24/08/09 and is for travel up to 24/07/10.

So one booking cancelled then new one made and bonus 1000 miles coming my way.

Now who says points whoring is bad [:D]

I have a booking in place with Purple Parking for our trip to Dubai in September so I phoned both FC and Purple Parking and they know nothing about any triple miles offer.[?]

Does anyone have any further info or maybe a link?[y]

It was received by email from FC, not sure if it was specifically targeted or not.

I have received the same email regarding triple miles booking with Purple Parking. I duly cancelled my original booking and re-booked for the triple miles offer. However it is costing me 3 more for the same period of parking.

Just been on their website looking at prices for two different airports and there seem to be a wide range of car parks and options ranging from 39-102 for 2 weeks. Are there any specific places that should be avoided like the plague (Man + LGW)?
A lot cheaper than the 30+ I paid for 2-3 days at Humberside last year.

Does anyone know if - in order to get the triple miles - you simply have to book through the normal Purple Parking link on the VA website?

Or is there a specific link for this offer?

Hope you can help - today's the last day of the offer and so I need to book today!

Cheers.

I have received 750 miles too. Totally unexpected as nothing showed up at the time of making the booking. A pleasant surprise. [:D]
