Maybe not, but €8 probably is. And it's available at most other stations.

agree, thats what I was referring to. I should be able to use my credit card. If I don't have enough coins I need to go for the more expensive option of €2 a day or in case I don't have any coins then ... trouble.

I also think that if NCPS insist on us following all the rules for the parking they should provide all the services they promise on the "terms of use" board (Nobody can clamp them for not providing a service but we get clamped for not paying... UNFAIR!)

If NCPS doesn't abide by the terms of the contract, you can sue them for the return of your €2 per day.

I would love to ... seriously... I think this might be a breach of contract (unless they change the sign stating the terms of use... further input on that is appreciated). I think this whole park and display issue is a total disaster for Irish Rail. They get the lower end of the revenue and all the bad publicity.

I'm sure they have themselves covered since the credit card is a 3rd party provided service for which they cannot be held responsible for

some update on that: credit card payment is available in Rush/Lusk now

but none of them works... I was going to get my weekly (30€) parking ticket with the credit card today (after coming back from my well deserved holiday) and I got reminded that things are not that easy with IrishRail in these days. The credit card reader was not working on the machines that have them.
I was lucky to find a 2€ coin in my pockets... otherwise what? leave the car without a ticket or bring it home and walk back to the train station, be late at work... tommorow i walk to the train station (have to get up 20mins earlier)

The amount of stress this parking(machine) fee nonsense is causing me is well out of proportion. If the machine would take at least notes... seriously, who is keeping 15 x 2€ coins (or even worse 30 x 1€ coins)
