Sipcarparks Avis 

Car park was suppose to be secure we had wing mirrors stolen from the car, advised people going to the AO Arena do not park on the car parks opposite. emailed company and had no response.

Parked at Derby Street, Preston lot. Went to pay for the day and the money was taken from my account but the screen said error. I went to phone up their help line but they're not open on Saturday. Assumed it was the machine not displaying correctly.

Then I got a £60 fine because it didn't go through even though the money came out of my account

Appeal denied saying I should have rang their engineer helpline shown on the sign even though it's closed on the weekend!

Do not park at these places, they'll do anything to take money from you

I parked my car there in the morning and bought a full-day ticket, in the afternoon I had some work errands to run. When I got back, I found that my parking spot was taken. I had to park outside of a designated bay, but my car wasn’t blocking anyone from entering or leaving the parking lot.

I received a ticket for not parking in a bay, which was true since I wasn’t in a bay that afternoon. I tried to contest the ticket, but due to delays in reply, the grace period had expired, and I was hit with a £160 charge. They offered me the option to pay in instalments, which I agreed to. I made an initial payment of about £60-£70 for the first month. However, when I went to make my next payment, I couldn’t find my billing account. I thought maybe they had decided to close it.

I was mistaken! I later found out there was a court judgment against me for £195. So, my advice to anyone considering using their parking space is to think twice before doing so.

Just trying to lute money from people even if you paid the parking payment. They want to rush to issue notice without considering humanitarian concerns. I paid for two hours and they send me tickets for more minutes i parked there. I lost my purse that day and not able to pay the balance. Because i paid the two hours before losing my purse. I was informed them i can pay the rest of the minutes if they send balance pending amount or full day charge if they give me 24 hours time to access my sources. But they want to issue notice

I paid fir car parking at Churchill Hospital in Oxford. Then received letter from SiP levying a penalty charge of £25 increasing to £50 if not paid within 14 days. They state the cannot trace the payment. I sent a copy of my building society statement to them showing the payment being taken from my account. They dismissed that evidence out of hand but then asked for the last 4 numbers of my debit card. I have advised them that I have provided definitive proof of payment and whether they can trace the payment or not I will not be making any further payment to them

God what a c**ts, fair while I did not manage to pay in time do due to unforeseen circumstances, mainly the homeless guy asking me to get him some food across the street while I was downloading the app since their machine only accepts coins, so while I was buying poor lad his meal and getting back to my vehicle I got ticket issued. It felt like parking officer was sleeping in between cars waiting for me and homeless guy probably works for him as a distraction what a shit show

Awful! There used to be Ringo at that carpark.. I guess considering how terrible LPS company is, it doesn’t surprise me they are teaming up with another scam of a company, right?? I paid for parking using their parking machine and have registered my car with the sipps app to extend the parking just in case I overlap the time.. Which I then decided to pay using machine anyway, HOWEVER, I wasn’t able to cancel my parking, not parking payment method, NOR CANCELLING MY PAYMENT CARD! Shocking to say the least, it is well against the FCA law and only way to avoid paying is to cancel my card which puts another inconvenience at my end. Absolutely shocking! STAY AWAY FROM USING THIS SERVICE

They just stool 60£ for unjust
I entered their park and couldn't find a space, I left and parked somewhere else

After couple of hours, I moved the car to that parking again,

They considered my first entering as the start and and they issued a ticket,

This was unjust,

I appealed and they rejected it
These 60 pounds I can feed my family

Don't ever use this company agian even if you will walk 2 miles away

I just don’t like you so you’re getting another 1 star review. Leaches. Paid for my parking. Had proof and still had to pay you money grabbing scum for a ticket I didn’t deserve

Terrible. Paid using the machine. There’s a sign saying “you may not get a ticket” so didn’t think anything of it. Got a fine. Checked bank and no payment was taken. Appealed it on grounds stated to no avail. Total robbery and will never use again.

Just reading a few reviews which justify my own experience of parking in Hyde town centre for 3/4 hr.
I parked my Kia Sportage which is not a small car at the side of the paperless pay meter, in a run down area parking approx. 25 cars. The side of the meter was unmarked with usual cross/ cross no parking markings.
I received a fine having paid in full, for wrong area parking. Sent an email in explanation which was acknowledged, saying fine would be reviewed. After which I received notice of confirmation of fine. Paid £60 fine , but, wrote letter my to object again to the none marked area. No other communications will be accepted for Parking other than letter. After 1 month of waiting, nothing. These people should be legalised for fraud and collecting under false pretences.
Since my experience I have seen other cars in the same parking spot. It it to continuously collect (in my belief ) illegal fines. Kia Sportage MK22EVD, since sold.

SCAMMERS.
I parked in SIP carpark in Halifax. I put £1 in the meter which paid for 2 hours parking. The carpark is in a not very nice area, and is badly lit, I didn't feel particularly safe when I left my vehicle. I only stayed about 20 minutes, and returned to my car and drove out of the carpark. About 3 hours later late at night I dropped a female friend off who had parked her car in that same carpark, I drove in and out of the carpark to drop her off at her car without parking.
SIP then tried to fine me for insufficient payment. They claim there is no record of my vehicle leaving and re-entering - LIARS.
I hope you read this SIP carparks. You are liars. that footage exists because I know I drove out of the carpark and back in again. I will not be paying any fine, if you want it you will have to take me to court I Can mention all these other people who have had similar experiences too.....

Can I rate SIP as zero star? As what all other people giving one star, I think SIP is a scam company. Even you paid the fee, they still give you a ticket. When you appeal, they give you another reason to reject. Last time I parked in Essex St in Birmingham, they gave me a ticket for not paying then after appeal, they said I didn’t park in an appropriate manner. But all drivers park in the same way. In that car park, they don’t even provide clear line for parking bay! Never never never go to that car park!

Scam company, every SIP car park I have been into has a faulty machine but then doesn't let me pay on app.
Avoid at all costs.

Parked within a bay. In front of a sign. Paid with ticket on full display. Got a PCN. Appealed. They've rejected it, with no grounds to. Terrible, seems to be a scam

Parked at north mid hospital and main hospital said pay on exit.
Machine didn’t work so tried app in multi storey car end of site and it said it didn’t recognise my number plate and it didn’t let me change the entry time so I paid what it said and I was worried at the time but nothing I could do as it was a Sunday and office closed when rang.
Subsequently sent me a £60 fine and as I pray paid it says I can’t challenge it!!!
Wrong on all counts.

I would give it no stars if I could! Please avoid this car park to save yourself a lot of money!

I parked in the Birmingham one to register the birth of my child. My partner took my car to park and I went inside, he said the machine wasn’t working so he purchased the parking session via the SiP website.
Then I receive a PCN for not paying for parking, I didn’t realise it was for this specific one and I paid the fine as I couldn’t remember instantly. Afterwards I spoke to my partner about this and he said it was for the car park where the machine wasn’t working so I asked him to look back through his transactions to see if the payment cleared which it did so we did pay for a parking session. So I contacted SiP which is also a nightmare to do, and through countless emails they are refusing to issue a refund for the fine I paid and keep saying over and over there is no payment on our system for your cars registration through PayByPhone even though I’ve continuously showed them it was paid through their own website and I have attached the proof of payment on the day to the emails and they’re still denying it. IAS is a waste of time too and there’s no one else you can possibly get help from, so I’m £60 down from trying to do the right thing, even though I did do the right thing in the first place and did pay for a parking session. It’s a joke, so please don’t fall into the trap!

Just another ridiculous payment for just "being." I stopped my car for a few minutes to look at a sunset and got fined. I mean, it's just so ridiculous we live in this mad system. It just makes me think, what are we doing? Why are we living in this capitalistic, unconscious society? When will we wake up? Maybe it is truly time to live off the grid...but how can we change consciousness if we live as hermits and get out of society?
Please let's help them.

Another money making scam from CPM. Targeting old and vulnerable people who have no idea about digital and don't have access to computers, smart phones and internet. This is just another way to scam the old and vulnerable out of their money. They only give 2 wks notice of new scheme

Absolute scammers - DO NOT USE. I parked at the one by the cinema in Bradford. I paid on Apple Pay and it pinged as though it went through - it was a ticketless machine so I did not get a ticket - so assumed I had paid. The machine was broken (it did not say it was broken) They fined me - I appealed - I sent it to the so called 'Independent appeals process' who rejected it (they are probably taking back handers) and now i owe £115 - Robbing greedy b******** - I will never ever use their car park again and I hope they go under
