Its a scam. There's a few of these parking companies that operate in the same manner. Naturally South Florida, anywhere else and they would be run out of town. The lots are typically empty lots waiting for development, frequently unpaved. The reason they have plenty of open spaces is knowledgeable people avoid their lots. They basically suck you in with reasonable rates and "fine" you with the slightest glitch you make. My fine was 27 times the $3.50 parking charge. Do not overstay. Do not park over the line. Bring cash as they use some oddball parking app you likely don't have (and likely don't want to give your credit card details to). Have good credit so you can thumb your nose at the threats you get while you ignore their "fines".

I've been receiving letters nonstop over this business invoicing me $96.30 due to my failing to extend my parking which, was originally a $3.50 parking fee. There is no representative to explain this ridiculous fine nor explain to that the Park-By-App was failing to register payment after 12:00am. I find it disturbing that they go out of their way to ensure they have every mechanism possible to fine for 'overstays' but no guardrails in place to ensure that a 'consumer' isn't unwillingly put in a position to be charged an 'overstay' fee. Elaborating here: not only do they have cameras that monitor entry & exit of the vehicles using the lots to park in, but they have security walking around actively inspecting vehicles to fine (not to ensure your vehicle is safe that part they are very adamant is not their responsibility), but are not ensuring that the app does not fail or have bugs. After a very lazy Google search, I found that this is a seemingly regular business practice for them and I encourage everyone to report this business as these are unethical, not to mention I'm pretty certain predatory business practices.

They took over ALL lots possible and destroyed the whole parking opportunities for residents and employees just trying to go to work!! Ive been working Ft Lauderdale for more than 20 years and they're prices + camera tickets are INSANE! They should be illegal how bad they are!! Asta la vista!! I boycotted ASTA years ago but sometimes have to deal with it pay meter but get tickets anyway.. I'd rather get a ticket from the city then park innany ASTA lot!!

They issued a ticket with pics of my car for a spot I paid for in St. Augustine. I have a receipt. Has this happened to anyone here ? I'm thinking they target people from out of town.

if there is such a thing as Karma, this organization will some day go out of business and the owners will be prosecuted. These are the worst kind of business people, pushing their operation to the edge of being illegal. at minimum they are immoral . they take advantage of the unbelievable overcrowding of the Ft. Lauderale metro area, issue citations using license plate cameras for 5 times the amount of parking fee using the Florida DMV database and threaten collection. Can only assume their operation is endorsed by the local governments where their lots are located. Awful money grubbing people .

I would leave a -5 review if I could. THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM and will steal your money, even if you pay them. They will find any pretext or reason to fine you. They are very predatory with their collection and appeal process. Stay away from any lots marked Asta. Do yourself a favor and park on the street or somewhere else.

Worst company in existence. Makes people pay for tickets & threatens to send to collections even if you pay for parking.

After arriving at the Asta Parking booth at 9:29 AM on Sunday, March 5, 2023 (No. 223) the attendant did not provide me with a receipt for taking my car but instead asked me for my Cell number. My car was parked outside of the Java Jam restaurant at 301 E. Las Olas Blvd., Fort Lauderdale. The sign at the booth stated that the parking rate was $7.00. When the parking attendant retrieved my car I provided him with my credit card number and he stated that he would Email it to me. When I arrived home I found that no such receipt was texted to me but my Visa account showed a charge for $12.00, or an additional $5.00. He did not state what the final amount would be. While this is not significant amount it still was a DELIBERATE DECEPTION and poor business practices. I will not park at an Asta Parking facility again.

We parked at a parking lot in ft Lauderdale by the sea and used the Pay by Phone app. We were charged immediately. 2 weeks later, they tried to charge an additional $5 which caused us to have to cancel our credit card for fear of bit being compromised. The same thing happened to our daughter.

Used their service on November 24, 2021, valet parking only parking lot. Vehicle inspected upon being delivered to the valet. Vehicle was returned the next day with damage. Filed a claim with the company, they acknowledged it's a valet only parking lot but denied the claim because they could not find anything in the lot that would've caused the damage. The valet himself encouraged me to file the claim as he agreed it happened while it was parked with them. I would not trust parking my car with this company anywhere in Florida. They definitely do not care about a customers vehicle.

Misleading language at the parking lot regarding cash payment, refusing Apple Pay in their app, tight parking. Not wishing to risk having my credit card hacked, I opted to pay cash. Their machine does not give ANY change. The correct language should read "no change given". Parking options are far and few at Las Olas beach but it seems I can't recommend this lot.
