On Mon July 30, I parked at 207 P'tree at 10.06am to go to a meeting at SCORE in P'Tree Center, to get advice about my resum. When I went to pay for 2 hrs parking, an attendant helped me, exchanging a $5 bill for me to pay into the machine.
My meeting ran over by 12 min, & when I returned to the lot it was 12.20pm - 14 min late & my car had 2 wheel clamps on it. I explained to another attendant (Employee # 119) that my meeting had run late & I would be happy to pay a late fee.in addition, I told the gentleman that I have been unemployed for 7 months. The only funds I had on me were my daughter's Daycare fees.
The employee was polite, but firm, & I had to pay $75 to retrieve my vehicle.in essence I had to pay $80 for 2 hours and 14 minutes of parking I am more than willing to pay a late fee, which should be in line with what I paid for 2 hours parking, which was $5. This is a disgusting business practice -it's a HUGE rip-off. I've called EPS twice (on July 30 & 31), & sent a complaint on their website, but I've had no response as yet
