Someone complained on 'watchman' once that the Kaps parking ticket system in a shopping area in Lavi was set at 15min behind when you drive in but was right on time when you drive out. Decided to check with other places and I am shocked.
At Upper Hill Medical Center its 9min behind on entry and 1 min ahead on exit. Thought it was coincidence and have complained twice lakini no change. At Eldoret tuskys its the same storo. I am begining to think its a calculated move to fleece kenyans.

Village Market is the most expensive parking. 50/- for the first hour. At this rate I will stop visiting malls. I find Junction parking exploitative. Tenants in these malls are powerless and in this day of inflation, their business must be hurting. It looks like the mall owners have ganged up to freeze motorists.

the parking system in jkia is shows the correct time, however i've always suspected someone can come up with such a con scheme

In as much as the high charges for parking are not acceptable, what I find to be outright maddening is when they say the first 'x' minutes are free but in actual fact its the first 'x-10min' or 'x-15min' are free.

I think at the village its 50 bob once and flat no matter how long you gonna stay in there?
I was there in December just before a nose was pinched (for 3 hours) and didnt pay more than 50 bob, and I didnt see the parking meter at entry or exit!
Ama they were just installed after the nose pinching saga?
@Ali please come clear!

Try the intercon parking for the true meaning of expensive...

What is the problem with us? This is a business model that's becoming common here:- You set up a good business, goes through the struggle, stabilizes, makes a lot of money, greed sets in, customers get annoyed, competition sets up and you're wiped out.

This is unbelievable guys. Now we can even come up with a list of shame, establishments that seek to steal from Kenyans with the help of KAPS ticketing: so far we have,

1. a shopping mall in Lavi - can someone confirm which one
2. Upper hill Medical centre
3. Tusky's mall in Eldoret
4. The junction (probably)
5. Sarit Centre (probably)

Incidentally, another thread here on 'wazua' talked of the guys behind ZIMELE FUND being the same ones behind KAPS. This begs the question, do they use the same integrity yardstick in ZIMELE as they use in KAPS. No wonder my money never seems to grow in that fund!!!

Was there today. Paid through the machine. New tariffs already in place

The one at UHMC is the mother of all when it comes to fleecing. Checked in there just after 5PM & was at their Java for about 3 hrs max sometime in Feb. My bill stood at 210, more than wat u'd pay Kisia for a whole day at his parking places!
