Alliance Parking UK Reviews 

-10 score what bar-stewards they are. Luckily kept my ticket although useless, little did I know the time begins from when you enter the car park (camera) and leave so you have to be well under your time to get out big con . Need a stop watch. I was 3 mins over according to them . Ticket time is misleading .Shall not be using said car park Porth Kidney Cornwall again these companies should not be operating , need a change in the law. ✌️😱 criminal.

Arrived at the car park in Rock. I left the wife in the back to breast feed the baby, once we had sorted the bits out, l then took the dog to relieve himself. Bought a ticket for 6/7 hours and placed it in the window. After a couple of weeks of being home, l received a fine through the post. This was because l didn't pay immediately on arrival, by 10 minutes, so their camera shows. We even left the car park after about 5 hours. I appealed, they refused. Morally, they're terrible. We had also used this car park on two other occasions within the same week, so they had a good £25 from us already.

Daymer Bay carpark and Alliance parking are a marriage made in heaven. The car park owners won't provide bins and make a point of blaming the local council for not picking up rubbish. They are a commercial enterprise and should be paying to have rubbish removed, maybe with all the £££s they cream off of visitors by issuing their Alliance "PCN"s. I feel sorry for anyone who willingly works for either of them...

First of all the car park was scruffy and dirty & unkempt. The machine was broken so I persevered and paid by text message which was really awkward as I had my grandkids with me and it took ages to do.
On arrival back to my car I was returning the grandkids back to their father in the car park which made me 5 minutes late which rendered me with a £60.00 ticket!
I will NEVER use an Alliance car park EVER again! All they want is your money & £60.00 for an hour is just disgusting!

A total of 2mins and 31secs over the paid period. Disgusting organisation considering writing to my MP as this approach is racketeering. If you can avoid there parking please do!

Visited Harlyn bay car park not been there for some years use to have a parking attendant on entry but no one there drove onto car park went up the hill looking for a space as it was very busy, found one unfortunately only had a £20 note no coins to the value needed, asked around no one could help went over to the catering trailers but couldn't oblige so went back to the car and drove out total 11 minutes 22 seconds £100 fine from alliance parking , I appealed explaining couldn't get change but replied apealed denied. What a bunch of robbing A____holes absolute no clemency all they want is your money , there's no one to speak to cus they're gutless only an automated payment method. Cornwall is getting very expensive they don't want us emmits there but happy to take our money. We'll I'm done so long Cornwall.

I wonder how long these scammers will be allowed to keep steeling from people if nobody pays any fines that should change things

I received 4 parking tickets. Signs all said pay by mobile app ONLY. No signal so couldn’t pay!!! £60 per fine… considering ignoring them. Complete scam.
Does anyone have a photo of the poster that says about parking.

Harlyn Bay. We paid for a 1 hour stay and left after 48min and 28 seconds. We paid cash and put the ticket on the dashboard. I have now received a penalty notice stating that I never purchased a ticket. Unfortunately I didn't keep the ticket, who does, so of course this bunch of thieves don't believe me.

Be aware - parking is for total time at the car park, rather than the usual how long you're actually parked for. They take a photo on arrival and leaving - it's not well signposted and I hate to think how much money they're making from customers. I paid for 4 hours and due to loading and unloading the car on a beach day I was over by 8 minutes and received a fine. They seem to be taking over all of Cornwall, but will avoid using Alliance where I can as it's a really unfair business model that cheats customers out of money without clear signage.

Only 1 star because I can’t give a minus star review!
If you see a car park run by these heartless baskets, drive on! They should be ashamed how they make their money.

made me really Angry I didn't even go over my ticket time but they are fining because I didn't display my ticket in the car, I think this is very Harsh, do you think they would take to you to court or are they just trying to scare us, private company's haven't the same legal rights as the council have.
By the way has anyone not paid?

Tried to pay by card at Harlan Bay on 5th June machine only took 80p. Gave up and paid for 4 hours by cash. Kept every ticket purchased during our stay except this one, fined £60. Disgraceful. We visit Cornwall twice a year but maybe we need to re-think this.

Paid for 2 hour ticket then, having such a lovely time at Trevone, went to get another one for one hour
so that we wouldn't incur a fine for the extra time.
Carpark Cameras only recorded one hour of payment. Who keeps parking tickets to prove they have paid? Us from now on!
Car park land is owned by Trevone Beach Shop. I spoke with Derek there whose only comment was thst Alliance Parking manage the site. I suppose he gave them that permission and profits from doing so.
We feel 'stitched up'! £60 or £170 to pay!
Come on, Cornwall or Padstow Council, surely this scam can't be legal.

Why this company is still allowed to trade is a mystery to me.

Their filing history at Companies House makes interesting reading, particularly their accounts made up to 30th September 2021 which contains no financial data whatsoever!

Come on Companies House, start compulsory-strike off action (yet again).

Don’t go to Daymar Bay!

i only wanted an hour's parking, but their app would not accept payment for just an hour. And the machine wouldn’t accept card payment for an hour either. Didn’t have any cash so left.
Received a standard letter demanding £100 reduced to £60 for quick payment.

Looks like pirates are back in Cornwall

I paid for 4 hours parking and the ANPR camera clocked a 12 minute overstay. The terms of payment are rediculous as they are from the second you turn in and INCLUDE walking to and from the payment machine and having to wait in a que of other drivers at Harlyn Bay Cornwall. £100 fine reduced to £60 if paid within given time.

Disgraceful company. Ruined holiday with their method of charging for so called parking. They charge from the second you drive through camera beam until car drives out through camera beam. If you havent paid for total time you are on the tarmac, whatever delays you have queuing to get in or to pay at ticket machine etc a £60 penalty is issued rising to £100 rising to £170! More like a scam. BEWARE. Dont visit Cornwall!!

Profiteering cowboys... If I was retired, I'd have understood and taken steps outlined in:

MSE's discussion/4816822/newbies-private-parking-ticket-old-or-new-read-these-faqs-first-thankyou

£100 fine for staying 40 seconds over the 10 minute grace period after my daughter had an accident on the beach. Disgusting.
