“Parked in Adam Street Car Park in Cardiff. I have received FOUR Parking Charge Notices for four different days in Sept.2020. On each occasion I had paid for a ticket and left the car park based on NCP's photographic evidence before the ticket ran out. What is NCP playing at? This needs investigation especially if it is being repeated? I am having to appeal each and every case.”

“2 penalty notices from this car park, 1 month apart. I have proof I paid for both. First excuse was faulty machines. Why haven’t they been fixed? They charge huge amounts to park here so it can’t be lack of funding! And the amount of penalty notices they send out is probably making them a fortune. Absolutely disgusted by this company”

“Parked in Cardiff Adam Street car park on Sept 26, paid £8.00 and left before time ran out. Just received penalty charge! is this just a scam carried out by NCP? or are they really this incompetent. How many customers would just pay up if they had lost the ticket.”

“...Nothing at all to state ‘pay in advance’ ie before leaving the car park on foot!...so returned to car park to pay 6 hrs later prior to leaving...on screen stated £6.50 (funny...thought we owed £32?!...yes readers it is alot of money, nothing between 3hrs @£22 and 24hrs @£32!!) there’s your 1st rip-off...had it not been for quick thinking after a long day too, we would have been badly stung later on oh yes!! ...clever ploy that, let them think they’ve got away or perhaps try to get away with £6.50...GOT THE T-SHIRT...coughed up £32 right there with the customer service guy on hold...how come they can get away with bad signage and over-pricing? Cos over the yrs they've scammed so many they can afford to buy expensive plots and do it over and over again...not worth complaining wasting your breath...just check the small print every time I guess 🧐🧐🧐🧐”

“I parked at St James street Nottingham and my car got broken into and most belongings taken. They are supposed to be a secure car park. I called NCP customer services to ask what my options are and they hung up on me. I still had to pay for parking even though my car was broken into. This company is a scam. So sad they are allowed to operate.”

“If I could give this Shameful company 0 stars I would.They are absolute scum sucking parasites.They tried giving me a pcn for non payment when I had the receipt for paying.They cancelled the pcn after I appealed but sent an abysmal e mail saying payment machine at fault.If you use these cowboys keep your ticket,they will try and scam you.”

“AVIOD. Parked at Finsbury Park car park which is supposed to be ‘secure’ our car got broken into and all belongs stolen, we got charged £55 for parking and when reporting the crime the person was very unhelpful and seemed nervous to speak. According to other reviews this is a common occurrence.”

“I ended up pay a penalty because the app system did not work!! I had all my personal and bank details in the app, and the day that I parked I asked to the maintenance guy about how I have to scan it as there is no barrier in this car park ... He said that is I have installed the App I should not have any problem. The day before I have paid in the Brighton NCP using the App and it worked very well.”

“One Sunday I was parked on the road near Norwich Bowls Club. Using my Blue Badge I parked on the road Double Yellows which I'm aloud. Received a fine of £100 or £60 if paid in two weeks. !”

“Absolutely awful customer service! Genuinely lost a ticket and was parked for around 4 hours. Charged a full days rate of £30 when the car park even states that they use an anpr cctv system for registration recognition so the times could have been checked and we could have been charged the correct amount! WE WILL NEVER USE AN NCP CAR PARK AGAIN.”

“The online booking system works well, but what an unfair, unethical, over time charging system. I booked your car park opposite the Barbican from 4:30 PM until 10 PM for a charge of £10 - fairly decent all things considered. I overran by 15 minutes, and attempting to exit the car park at 10:15 PM, 10 minutes of which were spent loading my wheelchair into my vehicle. The extra charge was £7 for 15 minutes. The attitude clearly is that you are in our car park, you are our 'prisoner' and we can charge what we like to release you, just because we can. Absolutely disgusting.”

“Gentlemens, this parking lot was organized by crooks and swindlers whose purpose is not to provide quality services but to profit from fines imposed in an honest way, do not park your car in NCP parking lots !!!”

“NCP car park SCAM!! The new charging mechanism where you park and then enter your registration plate in before you leave to pay is a massive scam! The charge automatically comes up when i put my registration in, so i paid the charge that comes up automatically to then be sent a parking fine because apparently the machine didn't charge enough. Appealed it and they said they didn't agree and the charge was for a shorter period of time, unable to appeal again! They are scamming so many people with this and are not being held accountable! It would be interesting to see the anount of people they have done this to and the amount of money they have made out of this SCAM system.”
