A Bristol shopper was outraged when he received a £100 parking fine for visiting Imperial Retail Park twice in two hours. He joins others who have complained about the ‘two visit’ fine, although the retail park in South Bristol has confirmed these fines can be appealed.
The car park is managed by Parkingeye and the parking charge notice states: “There is a no return policy which is clearly displayed on the signage, advising a vehicle may not return within 2 hours 0 minutes of departing the car park.” It further states that the signage is clearly displayed at the entrance and throughout the car park.
“By either not purchasing the appropriate parking time or by remaining in the car park longer than permitted or returning to the car park within the No Return Period, in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the signage, the Parking Charge is now payable to Parking Eye.”
