点评:My Fiancee and I drove to Portland Bill yesterday afternoon. We have been there before and my Fiancee has visited many times in the past and had a love for the place. What a disappointment, nothing seems well organised in this country these days. You only have one option for a car park, which is fine. What is not fine is to have only one option with which to pay (as usual, there is no such thing as free parking anymore). You have no other choice but to use something called 'JustPark', which I assume is something similar to 'RingGo'. We'd never heard of it and did not want to install yet another app/give away more and more personally identifiable data - just to pay a parking charge! It's really really poor that there was no option to pay by either card or cash onsite. We began the process of using 'JustPark' but it was so long winded (needing banking verification etc), we gave up and left. It's amazing that a place which is plastered in 'This is Crown Estate' placards - does not afford you the option to pay with coins featuring the monarch. Ironic and a real letdown.
