The carpark is locked overnight, fine. It opens some time between 6.30 and 7am. I made the mistake of parking between these times and got charged for daytime parking AND overnight parking. I wrote to Slough council and the "Senior" parking officer (how many parking officers do they need?) said yes that's right, if you arrive in the morning when it opens you'll be charged the overnight rate plus the daytime rate. I doubt this is legally sound - my suggestion that in the name of fairness they change the billing algo was ignored.
