Have received a 100 pound parking fine from this company which I appealed I had a blue disabled badge on display which I sent photographic proof to them but still turned down my appeal. Awful.

These appalling money-grabbing vultures have just billed me for £100.00 for an incident with a hire car, on October 7th when I had already paid for 2 hours through RINGO but unfortunatel was unable to return to my car within that time. The HIre Car company, Enterprise York subsequently sent me a fine for £35.00 for the excess time which they deducted from my Visa card on 5th November, so why the extra bill for £100 Baywatch? See you in Court...

I received a parking charge penalty today for just 15 minutes. After I parked my car, I forgot to start the parking timer. I realized my mistake after 15 minutes and promptly started the timer. I assumed that I wouldn't encounter any problems for those initial 15 minutes, especially since I am a regular customer of the car park where I received the penalty. This situation is very disappointing, and I feel it's unfortunate.
The Appeal for 71153704
I hope you will cancel that penalty, please.

Truly appalling company. Disproportionate fines, without any attempt to understand the circumstances.

No stars for this company! Pulled into the Riverside car park to deal with 3 year old who was choking in child seat in back of car due to having vomited. A very frightening situation for grandparents trying to help her , clean her up and calm her distress. We were there for 16 minutes and received a PCN . Appealed to the company due to emergency circumstances but appeal failed. Absolutely pointless appealing to POPLA (supposedly independent) . Hateful blood sucking company. Complete low life.

So, a vulnerable patient has lost her parking badge to use, put a note in the window, stating this (been waiting months for new one to arrive) I challenged this but still had to pay! You can’t speak to anyone either! Disgusting company

I received the same letter like everyone
Need to pay £155 without sending any previous letter
The contravention was happened in 08/10/2024 and the date of issue is 15/10/2024
I didn’t receive any letter at this time period and I received a letter yesterday (20.11.2024) that demand for payment of unpaid charges

I think this company makes more than millions pounds with making this kind of joke

Where can I complain about this kind of fraud

As other reviewers, I received a Demand of Payment of Unapaid Charge claiming that I had ignored a previous notice and demanding £155. I never received any previous letter from them. It seems to be a pattern. I have reported them to the fraud office at York. How much money have they managed to make through this scam so far?

Awful disgusting company- husband terminally ill with cancer . Just found out cancer progressed and they still fined £100 for parking in a disabled bay with an out of date disabled badge renewal delayed due to council backlog.Car parked at Teesside Park which is FREE parking for everyone so clearly making money just out of targeting the most vulnerable.
Shameless and cowardly why don’t you put a name on the letters you send out ?

I parked in one of their sites in Cornwall - who are happy to collect taxes from tourists - and didn’t allow for the time it took to download the E-Charging App, a matter of minutes & earned £100 fine. It’s racketeering, plain & simple.

Bullies who should be regulated better, it’s disturbing companies as such get away with targeting people for the wrong reasons for profit. I was charged for using a gym car park jd in Huddersfield that I was entitled to use I evidenced clocking in and out of the gym via a door time stamp yet because I have no evidence of a faulty tablet or evidence I logged my registration, I have apparently breached the contract is the expectation to film yourself signing in? They have a reputation of charging gym customers and have been in the press they seem to take a blanket approach with appeals and no common sense. People Go to the gym for mental health reasons and here we are with a greedy company exploiting people finding loops holes to generate profit, there has been publicity in recent years of suicides due to threats over similar charges and threats of debt collectors this company should be ashamed of themselves and there needs to better consumer protection so company’s can’t do this. I paid the charge which they discounted with the wording of a good Will gesture due to the numerous reviews of people trying to challenge tickets, the letter wording is also passive aggressive in the sense where they discourage you from challenging further which are aggressive tactics, I actually want to join another gym because a gym who supports a company as such are just as bad. What’s even more dissapointing is this company will completly
Disregard this feedback, due to the numerous other negative reviews and reputation.

Zero stars !!! The NHS instructed this company to enforce on a local hospital car park where my wife remains as an in patient and whose life is slipping away day by day. She has been in this hospital since February 2022 and my son and I were put on Minster Baywatch site and given free unrestricted parking. I was initially using my Audi but it developed a fault and had to go into the garage where it remained for some weeks awaiting parts from Germany. Fortunately I have the use of another car and I printed an A4 sheet with clear advice together with my carers pass which I left on the dashboard. I was issued with a PCN which I initially ignored the two weeks later I received another. The staff in the hospital seemed almost afraid of this company but I am preparing to attend court to defend against their bullying tactics and will be suggesting to the NHS that they employ a more ethical enforcement agency into the future. Utterly disgusted but no real surprises but the real problem is that their appeal site is difficult to navigate and upload images and it is totally impossible to contact by telephone. By the way I am approaching my 76th birthday and have little to live for.

Poor signage designed to confuse

Faulty machines that are never serviced. Asked to show the parking ticket you paid for in cash a fortnight later. Knowing that there’s a very good chance you can’t. Total scammers

If I could give minus stars I would, this company's business model appears to be badly signed car parks so they can issue pcn's and bully people for money, they have no care for situations or the fact they have ill maintained badly signed parking. If you get a pcn from minsterbaywatch challenge them, ask for your day in court chances are they bottle it an not show. They use bullying as a way to print money but like any bully they get scared when you fight back! I hope they go bust.

This 'company' deserves zero stars for its performance..

I parked in Driffield at a car park managed by this organisation. There were only two options for payment times: 2 hours or 24 hours. I paid for 2 and spent 1 hr and 38 minutes parked there. It was therefore very concerning to receive a notice some days later indicating I had apparently not paid sufficient funds for my stay...

Given that I bought a ticket (minimum price for 2 hours) and I stayed for only 1 hr 38 minutes (according to the timestamped photos Minister Bay Parking sent) the idea that I could have overstayed the time I paid for is a logical impossibility - so either this company doesn't know the rules for its own parking sites or else they are chancers trying to make as much money as possible.

Fortunately, I still have the ticket I paid for and so will be able to win against these charlatans; but we really can't stop at that. Companies like this need to be eviscerated, they are nothing more than modern-day highwaymen and there must be consequences for their corrupt malpractice.

Awful rip off company so cross my place of work YORK COLLEGE has allowed this cowboy company to police !!!
No customer service available for a reason, to take money. Contested a parking fine & all judgement is there’s with no reason. I accept to pay and then well within allotted time unable to pay the £30 offered. All online or automated call and all at the original higher price of £60. Basically cannot discuss with anyone so pay or by the looks of all comments it’s will continue without contest to £155.
This is totally obvious uncontested taking of peoples hard earned money. The laws need changing on this.

You have to questions a companied integrity when they don't have any way of contacting them other than email or online documents. Terrible communication and no response to an appeal. Complaint going into BPA.

This is the most appalling deceitful underhanded private car park company that give unfair ticket fines , to JD gym members in Huddersfield (who are 'allowed' to park in the car park adjacent to Gym - Minster refuse to listen to reason, or provide complaints reference when we log complaints(so we can't go to ombudsman, refuse to send letters in time so difficult to appeal in time) and the fact the gym ipad doesn't always work to let them know members have in fact registered car reg, they refuse to waive tickets issued in error despite admitting admin error of same in past! (yet cctv and iphone has to trigger confirmation members are using facilities, as QR code needed in order to allow entry, that's only way to be allowed in gym for god sake ) they choose to exploit the dodgy IT system at jd, and issue ccj, of £500 causing distress (JD in huddersfield are just as bad as they refuse to defend it's members yet they have an agreement with car park provider

Absolutely awful- parked, rang number and paid- had a text to say had paid til 23.59pm that day/ 1 week later a letter to say £100 fine- sent screenshots of bank statement and text but now saying it doesn’t prove it was the correct vehicle???? Letter has correct registration number! Would I pay for someone else 😬🤣 no !!! Now offered £20 reduced fee as “good will gesture “ or go to court! What else can you do??
Absolutely fuming 😡
