I paid to park in the short term car park. I parked in the short term car park. Opposite where I parked there were signs limiting the use of each of the opposite bays to minibus drop off/pick up. There were no signs in the bays in which I parked. There were several other cars parked near me. I was confident that I was not parked in the minibus bays. When I came to leave 2 weeks later my ticket was not accepted by the barrier machine, which told me it was black listed. I had to speak with parking control who said I had been parked in the minibus bays. I was forced to pay another £21 as a fine to be allowed to leave. GET YOUR SIGNAGE SORTED OUT!!, daylight robbery. I won’t be using Newcastle parking again. I’ll get a taxi.
