Free weekend parking using code QFFBDAY3. I tried it for parking in the cbd for vivid sydney and it worked beautifully. QFFBDAY1 and QFFBDAY2 wouldn't work for me.
Not sure how long this will last. YMMV .
Mod: Appears to be nationwide (reported as working in Brisbane & Melbourne in addition to Sydney).
not just Sydney.
Agree - I just booked in for Post Office Square, Brisbane CBD and it worked.
Thanks OP! :)
Which car park did you choose for your VIVID night?
edit: No 1. Martin place works
nice booked
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that the June code will be QFFBDAY4
every month is qantas birthday :D
I booked 131 Macquarie street
oh that's a good one
I'm worried about road closures during vivid Sydney time…
Edit but I booked anyway and no issues with the code. Thanks OP
When does vivid start?
Me too for the 28th of next month. :)
Thanks OP.
work for anyone this weekend? or does it only apply for certain weekends?
worked
got QFFBDAY2 to work this weekend at 1 martin place..
wooohoooooo!!!
just a note that if you want to cancel a booking they will charge $1.
Is there any fees for a no show?
I made two bookings as the second one was a different car park and can't cancel the first without paying the $1.. I might move it to another date or just let it lapse if there is no fees for no show?
there are no any fees in Melbourne for no show, not sure about Sydney
No fee for no show in Sydney, speaking from experience :)
Was going to ask the same question. No show today for me :-(
Can you please tell me where to put in the code? I couldnt find it on the booking page. Thanks
It should be at payment stage. After you book but before you pay.
Thank you :)
first time using this.. how close to the entry time do you have to be?
I think 1hr
The one I use (MELB CBD) just says "enter after 6am, exit before 6am next day".
this is correct, as long as you enter and leave within the time frame.
Is this website legit?
the URL (https://au.secure-a-spot.com/) looks dodgy, and it seems to be a clone of the website: http://www.secureparking.com.au/
yes legit
its the secure-a-spot portal of their website.
Sorry im new to this whole book a parking thing.
on their website it says: you will have a 15-minute grace period prior to the entry time of your Secure-a-Spot Reservation Period.
so does this mean if i book to enter at 9:00am and exit at 3pm. The PIN will be active from 8:45am - 9:15AM for entry and 2:45pm - 3:15pm for exit?
Can someone confirm this is how it work?
In theory yes. But I always give plenty of time before I leave.
Never tested it though as I have always arrived after entry time and before exit time.
As some places they have weekend parking for $10. Enter after 6am and before 6am the following day. Even if you enter, for example, enter car park at 12pm and exit at 6pm, it will still show 6am to 6pm.
Note - I believe they've added a booking fee (nominal around 50c)
when u apply code, it should go to 0 as well
this code only works for May? not June?
yes may only, although it might work for June. but you cannot book too long in advance thats the problem
Ok. thanks.
I tried entering one for 320 Harris St in Sydney for this weekend but it said code was not applicable. What's the scope?
Try QFFBDAY2
Works in Melbourne CBD, The Strand. Just booked for 1/5 :) Cheers OP
how many times can i book? lol
tried Hilton didnt work btw. 1st Martin is good. :)
Code is usually good for two bookings per account.
World square works as well but times are split.
Works in Melbourne CBD. Only evenings and weekends.
Thanks
You should report the deal to get it updated for evenings.
Cheers booked for all weekends in May
They really follow the same pattern for all Qantas free codes, nice finding OP
Legend! I love me some parking deals.
Good deal!
However, people who booked this when driving to the City please don't complain the traffic congestion because you contribute to that too.. haha :)
I used this on Sunday for free parking, worked for the Midcity Chinatown carpark in Melbourne CBD.
Can someone help? If I put 8pm as the exit time, can I leave earlier before that like 5pm? Will the pin still work at 5pm?
I booked at Martin Place.
Yes you can leave anytime before your allocated time using your pin
Thanks OP.
Secure Parking is awesome:
1) For the promo codes that come around often, reducing the fee to $0 or a tiny amount
2) For the awesome Secure-A-Spot system, makes it easy to enter and exit (no fumbling with those tiny tickets being entered into machines) and you are sent an SMS with the PIN number so it's easy to find
3) For being generous with entry/exit times (for Evening/Weekend bookings), enter and exit any time within the time frame given and it's all OK (Wilson doesn't do this, been stung many times, how shady of me to think that Wilson works like Secure, benefiting the users)
4) For having great locations (anytime I go to the city, I always happen to go somewhere less than 500m from a Secure Parking location, more often than not it's within 300m!)
These guys really know what they're doing!
i'm looking for some overnight parking tomorrow (entry after 5, exit around 10/11am the next day) in Sydney. Does anyone know of anything in the area?
Codes QFFBDAY2 and QFFBDAY3 (for May) perfectly work for Perth.
thanks op that works for Adelaide too
In 2 weeks time there will be a deal qffbday4
i wish wilson had something competitive like this. have never ever seen a bargain posted for them
Yeah, Wilson parking is a bunch of stingy arses who never gives anything back to their customers. That's why I bring all my parking business to Secure Parking !
QFFBDAY2 works for brisbane, tried Queensplaza and SW1 southbank parking and works. thanks OP :)
I can confirm this too. Just used it for Queens Plaza today.
Worked for myself as well, Adelaide north tce on both days this weekend :)
Had to use both 2 and 3 though FYI.
QFFBDAY2 worked for Martin Place Sydney for Saturday 30th :) Thanks guys!
Hi op its free weekend AND evening parking
Nice! Booked 30th @ No 1 Martin Place.
Good work!
Another great post. Thanks OP
does anyone know if it's possible to use for an overnight stay?
I have a wedding and there's a car park right next to my hotel.
Hope you can help!
Depends on the car park and whether they offer overnight parking.
Thanks for your reply. I just checked myself how to do it and yep…free parking in town overnight! how good :)
Can confirm it works for Evening Parking too. Just booked for tonight at SW1 in Brisbane.
YESSSS thank you OP
working in Melbourne
Tried booking and received the message "You have exceeded the number of times this promotion code can be used for your account." I had only used it once previously this month. So, possibly you can only use the code once per account.
"The Promotion Code you have entered has reached its daily maximum usage."??
Yup, just got this too :/
QFFBDAY4 does not work also.
Found another way round it.
Upgrade your Liven account for free to premium with code SECURELIVEN and get a free parking code :).
Nifty, I just got my sister to DL the app and hand me a code! We always find a way…
Thanks, QFFBDAY3 & 4 didn't work for me but was able to use this to book my parking for this weekend :)
Just another tip, the code you get from Liven can be used up to 3 times :)
QFFBDAY4 is already being used ;)
Only for dates in June.
Thanks, just used this code for the second time. However, I needed to find a different car park as my first choice came with the error that it has been used a maximum number of times for the day. Worked well unlike the LIVEN codes, all fake.
Looks like this code has stopped working.
Thank you! not just Sydney
