My pregnant partner was very unwell and we felt the need to visit accident and emergency. Paying for a ticket at 11pm then again when we left at 2. 38am.
I received a parking notice charge that didn't tell me why I was receiving it. I then appealed online as there is no telephone number with which to contact anyone.
I then received a reminder even though I had appealed and eventually a letter informing me that I had not paid enough for my stay.
If it hadn't been the early hours of the morning and my partner hadn't been so very ill I may have realised the mistake I made and put an extra £1. for an all day pass.
I really am disappointed in the hospital for adopting these measures when people are already sick and stressed enough.
