Disclosure Notice ordered by the Federal Court of Australia
Secure Parking made misleading representations about its Secure-a-Spot online booking service
Following legal action by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the Federal Court of Australia has imposed a penalty of AUD $10.95 million on Secure Parking, declaring that it engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct and made false or misleading representations, in contravention of the Australian Consumer Law.
Secure Parking represented to consumers that by using its Secure-a-Spot online booking service a consumer would have a parking space reserved for them for the time, date and location specified in the booking they had paid for, when that was not the case. These representations were made on Secure Parking's website, in subscriber emails, in Facebook posts and in YouTube videos.
The Federal Court ordered that this letter be sent by Secure Parking to all subscribers on its customer database. More information in relation to the action taken by the ACCC is available on the ACCC's website at https://www.accc.gov.au/
