Alliance Parking UK Reviews 

It’s not even worth one star. What a corrupt company who hope you will fail to see the late response via email. No I have not paid the fine and nor will I the pictures sent by the the operators are very poor but this tin pot company will persue. Don’t give in to there minions!! They aren’t worth your time m.

This doesn't warrant any stars. Went to one of the park and ride car parks in Padstow, Cornwall. 2 buses sitting there but didn't look like they were moving. Waited exactly 11 minutes and 34 seconds to decide to park elsewhere due to the buses not going anywhere. Got a fine for 11 minutes and 34 seconds. Tried to appeal with no luck. Absolutely disgusting behaviour for 11 minutes and 34 seconds. Shame on you Kevin McManus!!!!!!!! I do believe in Karma.

Disgustingly unreasonable prices and no leniency for minor over stays with legitimate reasons. Making a family beach trip a potential financial catastrophe!

Kevin McManus, along with his team of crooks, is a cancer on society. They send fines out late and then deny people the option to pay the reduced fee. From reading all the other reviews it is clear that the employees of Alliance Parking have totally miserable lives. Karma is a strong force! They don’t even have the money to invest in a website, nor do they have any legitimate offices - one glance on Google shows the headquarters to be in a shabby, run down house in Cornwall! Absolute joke of a company. I bet Kevin is gutted that from October the tables will turn and he can’t charge people within the legal 10 minute grace period! Awww poor you guys, 80% of your revenue will disappear and you will need to get an actual job! I look forward to reading about your upcoming demise.

I wish I could give no stars at all.
Absolutely stay away from this company if you are a management company. Do not use these people.

NO STARS - Absolute jokers! I've been parking in Harlyn Car park for about 35 years and these jokers have recently taken over. There is no grace time between driving into the carpark and out again, I paid for the amount of time I have "parked" but still got a ticket as I was 10 minutes over, no consideration for actually finding a space to park, idi0ts!

They claimed I hadn’t displayed the actual ticket I had purchased and subsequently presented to them. The ticket was not visible on the dashboard in their photo but interestingly you could not see the dashboard behind the steering wheel due to a big blur in the picture….this remained unmentioned in their reply to my appeal. Interesting they say proving payment is no grounds for appeal as people switch tickets after use, good reason except the number plate is shown on the ticket! I would love to fight this all the way but have had to swallow hard and pay the £20 goodwill settlement they offered me just to lose the headache. Watch out if parking In Padstow….

Alliance Parking do not even deserve the 1 star from me. I produced evidence that their parking charge, from Academy in Barry, was incorrect inasmuch as they showed a frontal picture of my parked car which looked as if I was parked slightly out of the lines, but I immediately took photos, within seconds, from the right side of my car to prove that I was in the lines. I sent the photos in with dates and time on them, but my appeal was denied and I had to pay £60. How many other disabled people has this company fleeced by taking photos from an angle that suits them.

Sent a fine for a duration of stay of 8 SECONDS. You are thieving, robbing, scum of the earth.

Can’t believe this
Utterly disappointed
Not sure quite what to say except
They are a bunch of
‘Scammers

Abhorrent treatment towards tourists. Spent over £10k in local businesses within 48 hours in Padstow AND out of season in winter. Parked and fully paid 3 times in the Harbour Commissioners car park. Never overstayed. Was stalked from the off by shady, unidentifiable 'patrol man' in the dark and driving rain, from the ticket machine where he stood behind me and WATCHED me pay for and then display my ticket, on my dashboard. Still received notice for "not displaying a valid ticket for inspection". Loathsome company and I shall not return to Padstow for as long as Cornwall continues to award Alliance Parking.

No coins so downloaded app and found I’d been signed up to all manner of scams, including a ‘health’ site Squat Fever, that planned to charge me £50+ after my ‘1-day trial’. Came with a team of similar sites, ‘watch movies any time’ and something about dance. Found out afterwards these sites somehow piggy-backed onto “Alliance” and are NOT associated with Alliance Parking. But judging from other reviews, the 1 star seems still appropriate. LESSON: don’t download apps in a hurry.

I have just received a parking charge for Trevone beach PL28 8QY, I checked where this was and I haven’t been to Newquay for about 20 years, I live in North Wales. I tried calling to appeal but they don’t accept appeals over the phone, when I tried to submit my appeal on the website the appeals form keeps saying there is an error message, really difficult to get this resolved when it should take 5 minutes. If you look at the photo the reg has an M at the end not a W. I’m not replying via letter as it’s the 21st century and people should be able to contact them without issues.

terrible got a ticket for parking in my own private parking space. permit in my side window. made sure picture of this window were missed terrible service

Unfortunately I can't give this scum less than one star I paid for one hour parked for 21 minutes and get slapped with a parking fine but I don't have my ticket anymore. Conveniently they have a picture of me arriving and one of me leaving but not one of me paying there's a surprise. Scum of the earth they need stopping

disgusting scum.

zero stars and as a local I am disgusted. We didn't mind paying peak fees in the summer as we could walk our dogs in the winter without charge and then the alliance scum took over.

parked there for 30mins on new years day to get my dad who had just had a heart attack out of the house.

they now charge as soon as you enter...we tried to park by the cafe to grab a coffee and sit in the car and were blocked by cones, having to find a new space. payment app won't work due to signal. we did not stay for 30 mins and have been slapped with a fine...bet they won't take it from the hour we didn't use last week...stay away from any car park under Alliance

Scum...Cornwall Council you need to take charge of your car parks and get rid of these cowboys who are unscrupulous in their quest to make money. Parked in Polzeath 28th Dec, neither machine working for contactless payments, took too long trying to find cash/coins and then allegedly didn't pay enough to cover time I was parked. £60 for a 43 mins stay, 15 minutes of which I was trying to pay! There were many of us in the same situation. The cowards who hide behind their parking fine letters should answer the phone and speak to human beings about their very valid reasons. Don't bother challenging - tried that once before and ended up paying more - that time I drove in and out, as nowhere to park but still got fined.

Tried taking money twice. Absolutely robbing gits. Spoke to somebody who said I didn’t dispite paying with proof as well. As a result of this since issued the ticket the company I used to do business with has lost thousands of pounds with of business as a result of agents they’ve used. They begged for me to go back but no, to late.

Disgraceful company, somewhat akin to an organised crime group. Dishonestly fleecing people with extortionate fines for parking. I have never seen a car park run in this manner and am not entirely sure it is actually legal.

I own the parking spot outside my flat and repeatedly me and my guests have been fined for using it. Can you imagine anywhere where this makes sense. Horrific company.
