    It's been in effect since around March and in the beginning lots of people forgot to pay because there were no instructions inside the centre on how / where to pay

    So, in breach of the Code of Practice by the sounds of it:


    3.4. Material changes – notices

    Where there is any material change to any pre-existing terms and conditions that would not

    be immediately apparent to a driver entering controlled land that is or has been open for

    public parking, the parking operator must place additional (temporary) notices at the site

    entrance for a period of not less than 4 months from the date of the change making it clear

    that new terms and conditions/charges apply, such that regular visitors who might be

    familiar with the old terms do not inadvertently incur parking charges.

    NOTE: Examples of material changes can include introduction of parking enforcement

    where none has previously applied, introduction of time-limited free parking, or reductions

    in the time limit within which free parking is available. Given the need to avoid confusion

    and clutter at entrances the test is whether the fact that a change has been made is clearly

    signalled to drivers on entering the land and the nature of the change is clearly displayed

    thereafter – it may also be necessary to install repeater notices depending on the scale of

    the premises.
