$31 parking fee for less than 5 hours in Geylang Serai
05:55 AM Sep 08, 2010We went to Geylang Serai to do our Hari Raya shopping last week.
We saw empty parking lots opposite the loading/unloading area on the ground floor of the multi-storey car park and parked our car there.
We were charged more than $31 for less than five hours' parking.
According to the car park staff on duty, charges for that row of lots are $8 for the first hour and $6 per subsequent hour.
There is a sign indicating the charges near the entrance but due to the dim lighting and long queue of cars behind us, we overlooked it.
Anyway, who would expect such high charges in an HDB estate?
I suggest the car park management put up a sign on the barrier that can be easily seen.
The staff told us other angry drivers have complained about the charges - one was especially worked up after being charged more than $60! Letter from Julie Johari
