      On Wednesday 12/27/23, I parked in the ******** lot. I created an account and I put my expected time and credit card information. Based on the signage, I expected to be charged $5/hr, which would have been $25 for the time I was there. I came back to my vehicle to fine a parking violation for $75 for not paying, even though I had used their app. In addition, they charge you a $5.00 convenience fee for paying their scam ticket. It appears, based on talking to others who parked there, that I was not the only one who had this problem. I paid the ticket so as not to sustain additional penalties, but I would like me extra $55 returned. The ticket also says if you pay within 5 days youll receive a discount. I did not receive any discount and my confirmation shows the payment was made on 1/1/24, but it was actually made on 12/31/23. Are they delaying conformation so they dont have to give people a discount?/

      My daughter and I went to the Third Ward for lunch on 2/9/24. We paid $20.00 for parking using the app at 1:36. When we got back from lunch we had a ticket on my car with the time stamp 1:35. I ended up paying the ticket $35.00 plus a fee of $5.00 to do it online. What a scam!!!! Once I told a few people about this they encourage me to file a complaint. Terrible business.

      We at Secure Parking USA care very much about our customer service. I reached out to apologize for the inconvenience. And explained when a customer receives a violation after making payment at our lot. The customer can email over their receipt and violation number, and I can assist you with voiding the ticket.

      And I offered to refund the payment for the ticket.
