A van owner has reported an attempted theft inside Benevento's Mega Parcheggio, saying the vehicle was forced open and estimating the resulting damage at 4,000 euros. The account was published by NTR24 on 17 October 2026 in the form of a letter from the subscriber.

According to NTR24, the letter writer says they pay a 70-euro subscription for the car park and asks who protects subscribers in such cases.

What was reported

NTR24 reports that the van was forced during the attempted theft at the megaparcheggio. The 4,000-euro figure is the vehicle owner's estimated damage, as carried in that report.

No independent police or prosecutorial statement was available in the research material to confirm the attempted theft, the circumstances of the incident, or the damage estimate.

The subscription question

The central point of the letter is the relationship between a paid subscription and protection: the writer cites the 70-euro subscription and asks what protection it provides.

The available sources do not link that 70-euro subscription to a specific subscription category, nor do they document the car park's security measures, surveillance coverage, staffing, insurance terms, or liability policy. Those points therefore remain unresolved on the present evidence.

Parking context for readers

Parking information published by Bemobi identifies Via del Pomerio and Porta Rufina as available car parks. The research does not establish at which of these locations the reported vehicle was parked.

Bemobi states that access is managed through license-plate recognition, without requiring a ticket. Subscribers entering those car parks should therefore expect plate-based entry rather than a paper ticket system.

A separate September 2026 report describes discounted Mega Parcheggio subscriptions for residents of Benevento's historic centre: 35 euros per month for 24-hour access and 20 euros for the 20:00–08:00 period. That convention concerns historic-centre residents and is distinct from the 70-euro subscription mentioned in the NTR24 letter.

What remains unclear

Several points cannot be answered from the verified material:

  • Whether the incident has been confirmed by police or prosecutors.
  • Whether the vehicle was parked at Via del Pomerio or Porta Rufina.
  • What security, surveillance, staffing, or insurance arrangements apply to subscribers.
  • Which subscription category the reported 70-euro payment corresponds to.

For subscribers concerned by this report, the practical step supported by the evidence is to check the specific terms of their own subscription category with the operator and, where damage or an attempted theft is involved, to rely on a formal complaint to the competent authorities for documentation of the facts.
