"Carparking"

About: University Hospital Aintree

(as the patient),

Returned to car park after an efficient appointment. Charge was £3. Only had bank card or £20 note.

Machine was not accepting cards also sell taped to the machine was a small notice that none of the machines on site accept £20 notes.

Had to go back to the hospital shop no change!

Then had to go to the coffee shop and purchase 2 coffees to get change. By we got back to the car the fee had increased to £4.

Baring in mind that it was a dry day, I was able to go back and forth this could have been someone not in the same position.

In addition to this the car parking is offering a £17. 50 weekly ticket. If purchased I would expect this would be by card or a £20 note.

Frustrating 😒
