Worldwide Parking Assoc Inc
“arrived at the garage around 6:30pm after searching for street parking for a good 20 mins.”
“hours later, when we came back from the show to claim our car, we were treated to an incredibly rude attendant who told us our parking fee was $31.00!”
“And, we would think, a huge embarrassment to the mayor?”

STAY AWAY--FEE SCHEDULE NOT POSTED, CASH ONLY.
I was taken advantage by the Worldwide Parking garage. Afte receiving my parking ticket, I found it odd that the rates were not posted but felt their fees would be consistent with other garages in
the area. . We spent about 2 1/2 hours on Sunday afternoon and was amazed when I was told of the $35 charge. Tried to pay with credit card and was told payment was cash only. How can anyone operate a business in Boston as cash only and not properly display their fees. My sister and I scrambled for the $35 as we do not carry cash.
What would have happened if we did not have the cash. Why does the City of Boston allow a business that gouges the public to operate?…
AVOID 20 Clinton Str, Boston,Worldwide Parking Asso. Stay away of this Parking and those completely dishonest People. I paid $35 for less than 2 hours! They rip you off in the middle of the day
THEY'LL ROB YOU BLIND!!. I give them no stars!! I had a meeting in the Financial District and was coming into the city when the business traffic was at its worst, 5:30PM. I parked at this lot at Faneuil Hall, thinking how bad could it be?! I'd not be more than a couple of hours.. $35.00. So the only resolve I have now is to be sure and get the word out to boycott this parking facility. This is disgraceful - an embarrassment to the City of Boston. What is wrong with Mayor Tom Menino and his staff, the Attorney General's office?!!…
I was mugged!.
I was mugged and didn't know it until I was headed out of the lot. $17 an hour!!!!!!!!!
I hope these people are paying their taxes to the city and providing for a homeless shelter. If taxed properly, it should keep the tax rate down in the city.
This is one parking garage to avoid unless proceeds are going to a homeless shelter.…
A disgrace to Freedom Trail.
On labor day wkend a bunch of friends visited Boston. Parking within the city at lots typically run around $12.00 at most $17.00 a day (Copley Square, Boylston, Kenmore, Harvard). When entering this
lot I noticed the price table but could not read it as it was below the car level and there was another car waiting behind me to get in. I later found out it's $31.00 for any time above 2.5 hrs and cash only. Come on! The airport is not even that much.
On one hand, though very poorly and inconveniently to the driver price is posted. On the other hand the amount is outrageous. Why? Because they are the only lot around there.
Shame on all of those that can justify this price, if they have any. I will be filing a complaint with the city for the price gouging that's happening here. This is monopoly pricing and yet price table should be more conspicuously posted.
People are paying this not because they don't have an alternative, it's because most don't even know it'll be $31.00 after 2.5 hrs. Had I known, I would've parked at the convention center or at Beacon Hill and walk or take the T or a taxi and it still would've been far cheaper.
Never again!…
