More Costs at Shoreham

Hi all, word of warning.

I have been flying at shoreham for several years and always fed the pay and display meters. I was told that when I went away overnight or if i was late back and overan the parking ticket it was ok because i was flying there and they did not have clamps.
I have not been there for a while and got my ticket and overan accidentally.
I came to my car to find it had been clamped. he release fee was £85 plus £5 surcharge for paying with a debit card!
I paid and wrote to the airport saying that on top of flying costs and practicalities I was not happy. I got a reply that it was signed etc etc. nothing about the customer care issues.
I have accepted I had to pay but will not carryout any further flying from there. Goodwood and Redhill are convenient for me also and appear to be more aviation orientated and cheaper
