I had cause to visit the hospital on the 10/07/2014. This was only for an X-ray, but as I had no idea how long it would take, how am I supposed to know how much parking to pay for? How can anyone know at the time parking how long their appointment is going to take. However, I hoped I would be less then an hour and paid £2 for an hours parking. I think this price is a bit steep, by the way. Luckily my appointment didn’t take long and I have no complaints about the service I received from the hospital staff. I already considered the parking system to be awful and not really suitable for a hospital car park. So imaging how I felt, about the system, on receiving a parking charge notice a week later. I think the system installed is pure and simple profiteering, and gives very little consideration to the people who after to use it. After reading other comments about the car park, I think the soon you get it changed the better it will be for all your patients. The old system seems to be much more user friendly.
"Awful parking system."
