Brit woman slapped with PS150 fine for taking too long to eat at KFC!
October 2nd, 2008 - 2:01 pm ICT by ANILondon, Oct 2 (ANI): A British woman was left dumfounded when she was hit with a 150 pound fine for taking too long to eat at fast food giant KFC.
A regular at KFC, Natalie Jackson had ordered a huge family bucket, which contained 14 chicken pieces, 6 French fry bags and large cokes.
Jackson and a pal took an hour to scoff the 5,456-calorie feast.
Days later Jackson was fined for breaking KFCs 75-minute car parking limit.
Its disgusting. I spend a lot of money in there. Now Im never going back, The Sun quoted Jackson, as saying.
It didnt feel like I was in there all that long. We were hungry, Jackson added.
Natalie who eats at KFC three times a week complained to restaurant bosses that she was unaware of signs warning of the time limit in Huddersfield, West Yorks.
Following the case, KFC has said that restaurant parking was contracted to private firm Civil Enforcement Ltd but promised to review Natalies case.
A parking restriction was introduced to prevent non-KFC customers using the car park, a spokesman for KFC said.
The 75-minute time limit is designed to accommodate our customers who generally eat for about 30 minutes, the spokesman added. (ANI)
