What happens to what you’ve already paid
APCOA's refund treatment depends on the product. For daily app tickets, a refund is only possible if you request it before the session starts or while attempting (and failing) to park, later requests are refused because usage can't be verified. Season-ticket refunds are calculated pro-rata minus an administration fee, but there's no refund for the remaining days of a partly-used month. Flexi-Pass permits are non-refundable once used. Refund requests go to csc.refunds@apcoa.com with your booking reference, vehicle registration and car park location.
“Refunds will be pro-rata, less an administration charge starting two working days after the email request.”

Does APCOA Parking charge a cancellation fee?
We found no cancellation fee in APCOA Parking’s published terms. On a rolling plan you simply pay to the end of the current billing period and nothing after. If you’re inside a fixed minimum term, check your signup email for the end date, cancelling early is where fees usually hide. If you signed up online within the last 14 days, the Consumer Contracts Regulations give you a cooling-off right to walk away, fee-free, for most digital subscriptions.
What doesn’t work for cancelling APCOA Parking
Based on 3 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.
- ✕ Requesting a daily-ticket refund after the parking day, APCOA states refunds made later in the day or at a later date cannot be honoured because it cannot determine whether the parking was used.
- ✕ Cancelling a recurring season ticket without giving one calendar month's notice, Terms state that if the required notice period isn't given, any Direct Debit or CPA in place continues to be collected and the permit renews.
- ✕ Appealing a Parking Charge Notice by phone or email, APCOA only accepts appeals in writing via the secure online portal or by post within 28 days; phone and email appeals are not accepted.
- ✕ Relying on live chat to process a refund, Reviewers report the live chat agents simply redirect to the website and end the chat rather than processing refunds.
- ✕ Expecting a refund when a car park is full or a space isn't available, APCOA states it cannot guarantee spaces and cannot refund sessions purchased where a space is not available.
Cancelled APCOA Parking but still being charged?
Three common reasons, in order of likelihood:
- The cancellation didn’t actually complete. If you never received a written confirmation from APCOA Parking, treat it as not cancelled. Email
Finance.seasontickets@apcoa.comreferencing your original request date and ask for written confirmation plus a refund of any charge taken since. - You cancelled in the wrong place. Subscriptions started through the App Store or Google Play bill through Apple or Google, cancelling on APCOA Parking’s site doesn’t touch them. Check Settings → Subscriptions on iPhone, or Play Store → Payments & subscriptions on Android.
- Billing lag. A charge that was already in flight when you cancelled can still land a few days later. One trailing charge can be normal; two is not.
If they keep charging after a confirmed cancellation, that’s chargeback territory: dispute the charge with your bank citing “subscription cancelled, merchant continued billing”. The yoink app also flags this automatically, it keeps watching your inbox after a confirmed cancellation and alerts you if APCOA Parking charges again.
How APCOA Parking will try to keep you
APCOA Parking may respond with a retention offer, a discount, a free month, or a downgrade to a cheaper tier. Don't engage with the counteroffer. Restate that you want a full cancellation and cite the consumer law again if they push back.
They’ll say: “Daily/app refund refused as 'usage cannot be verified'”
You say: Provide contemporaneous evidence: app confirmation screenshot, timestamped bank statement, and photos of full/broken machines. If you were double-charged or pushed into a higher tariff by app failures, state that clearly, reviewers report APCOA reversing duplicate charges (e.g. accidental double drop-offs at Heathrow) once evidence is shown. Email csc.refunds@apcoa.com.
They’ll say: “Season ticket 'one calendar month notice' delays your exit”
You say: Serve written notice immediately via seasontickets.apcoa.co.uk AND email Finance.seasontickets@apcoa.com so the notice clock starts, and separately cancel the Direct Debit / Continuous Payment Authority with your bank to stop further collection, you have the right to cancel a CPA directly with your bank.
They’ll say: “Complaint or refund email ignored”
You say: Escalate in writing to the UK Customer Complaints Team (PO Box 815, Wigan WN1 9WX) and reference APCOA's own Customer Complaints Policy. If still unresolved, escalate to the operator's Accredited Trade Association appeals scheme (BPA / POPLA for a Parking Charge Notice) or the CEO's office. As a UK consumer you can also raise a Section 75 or chargeback claim with your card provider.
They’ll say: “Live chat deflects you to the website”
You say: Put your request in writing to a monitored mailbox (csc.refunds@apcoa.com for refunds, tpreviews@apcoa.com for review escalations) rather than relying on chat, a written trail with your booking reference, VRM and location is what actually gets refunds processed.

Rights in other regions (European Union)
European Union
- Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU14-day right of withdrawal across all EU states.

Delete your APCOA Parking account (not just cancel)
Cancelling stops the billing; deleting removes your account and personal data. Do them in that order, deleting an account with an active subscription can leave the billing running with no way to log in and stop it.
If there’s no delete option in APCOA Parking’s account settings, email Finance.seasontickets@apcoa.com with the subject Account deletion request, [your account email] and ask for your account and personal data to be erased under UK GDPR (Article 17, the right to erasure). They’re typically required to act on it, most companies complete erasure within about 30 days, and you should ask for written confirmation when it’s done.
