“I had plane parking long stay. Plane parking area was closed. It then took me 15 to get into long stay car park where I contact a member of your staff to ensure my pre booked ticket was valid for this area. It was confirmed at thi stage as valid. If a car park is closed then an e mail should be sent prior to travel to provide details of car park to use.”

“Got to Edinburgh Airport, and followed the directions provided only to find that the Plain Parking was closed, we got parked in the Long Stay but would have been nice if they'd bothered to tell us before travel. No knowing the airport we spent 20mins driving around looking for an alternate entrance.”

“On trying to leave ( and despite prepaying ) i was asked to pay £95 So i had to speak to the machine and eventually it was answered and eventually I didnt have to pay anything but at the end of a long day and when wanting nothing more than to get home it was the last thing needed( and there was no apology)”

Hi Mark, I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t have a pleasant experience. We strive to deliver a seamless journey for our customers and it’s disappointing to hear when this doesn’t happen. It sounds as though our automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system hasn't registered you upon entry. When this occurs, it means our system doesn't match you to your booking and you are then charged the roll-up rate in error upon exit. This doesn't happen often but when it does, I understand the frustration that it causes. I'm glad you managed to get it sorted at the time. Kind regards, Customer Support Team

“At the car park it is quite some distance to the terminal building as there is no shuttle service mmmm did not give a reason for this .On my return to go home and find the car it was raining quite heavy so it was not very pleasant when I tried to exit the barrier would not lift and a message appeared saying I was due an outstanding to the sum of £179 which was incorrect as I had already paid for the parking,very frustrating indeed but luckily the gentleman in the control room got it sorted out seemingly the nrc camera did not get me coming.

“Used before and been impressed. This time changed to long term parking and no shuttle buses therefore we had to walk. Would have booked other parking if I had known.”

“Had to wait about 25 minutes for the bus at Glasgow airport at the end of the trip - would have been massively stressful if I'd had to wait that long going the other way”

Hi Jeremy, Thanks for your review. I understand the frustration caused by a wait for a bus - especially after a flight. The Citylink AIR Glasgow 900 service timetable is decided by Citylink themselves and I encourage you to direct your feedback at them. Thanks, Customer Support Team

“There were no spaces left when we arrived to park our car. We had to leave it along with many other customers on double yellow lines and on raised kerbed areas. The carpark was clearly overbooked.”

“The directions provided to the parking area are dire to non-existent. The signage is also dire to non-existent. It turned out that the Long-Stay carpark at Edinburgh is also the carpark paid for via Plane Parking - nothing to indicate that this was the case until we walked back to the office in the multi-storey carpark and asked the attendant how the matter of exiting the Long-Stay carpark without paying extra was to be resolved. All in all, stressful, albeit cost effective in cthe end.”

“We were upgraded to Long Stay Parking without notice - would have been helpful to have known this in advance. Signage for the pedestrian route from Long Stay parking to the terminal was very poor. We ended up having to walk along the road and across the tramlines.”

“We booked Mid Stay and fast track security for a 10 day holiday. On arrival and a long search at the airport we eventually were told that Plane Parking wasn’t operating and found that we had been ‘upgraded’ to the airport long-stay by chance. No text email to let us know the change !! On our arrival at 2:00am 10 days later our ticket was rejected telling us we’d £245 outstanding to pay! Another discussion over the help radio we were eventually allowed through. Come on Plane Parking get your act together. Customer service should be paramount and the pandemic shouldn’t be used as an excuse for poor service. And oh the fast track security wasn’t in operation therefore you owe us a refund. You should be making customers more aware and constantly updating your website to give the most uptodate information.”

“I had to park my car at 4am so in compete darkness. The signage for plane parking took me to an empty car park at the far end of the airport estate, several miles from the main building. There was no entry and no evidence of any other cars. I worked eventually out that despite the signage, the email I was sent was directing me to the long stay car park which was closer to the main airport building. I drove back and eventually found it. There was virtually no signage for the walk to the main building. I had to find my way in the dark. It took a good 15 minutes. On my return I tried in vain to retrace my steps. Again no signage whatseover, It took my 30 minutes to find the car park. I will not be using this service again.”

“I have used your parking a number of times over the years and most times there is the same fault. You are stopped at the gate and asked to pay the full price. This time I had to wait at the gate almost 15 minutes before it was sorted. Very Very Poor show”

“The description on where to park wasn't very clear and nothing was mentioned about getting a ticket at barrier and using it when we leave as a pre paid ticket. The car park wasn't labelled with the plane parking brand. Just a stressful experience.”

“Signage is terrible! Signs for plane parking lead you on a wild goose chase. It should be called Long Stay. I nearly missed my flight! After that everything was fine!”

“Parked easily but on return I was most upset at the exit barrier to be told by the machine that I owed £140. I spent around 10/15 minutes trying to resolve this. Eventually someone spoke to me and gave my name and car reg. Not a pleasant experience at that time of night ( 23.00 ) must do better ! Ron Moodie”

“I have used Plane Parking many times and found them to be very good. However on this occasion I was let down badly. We arrived at the airport in the dark to find the car park to be closed and to use Terminal car park. No directions no instructions given. On trying to get into the car park I went into the lane for drop off and was charged £4 to get out. I would have appreciated an email with the change of plans. We are in our eighties and this experience was quite upsetting. A reply would be good. Helen Imrie REG. E7LMA booking ref 4646171. I tried to phone & email you before 7th to correct the make of car you had me down for me but nothing was answerd. Not a happy customer.”

“Throughout this pandemic almost every company, where their clients were affected, offered some form of incentive to stay as a customer, whether is was a reduced renewal price or free months added to your contract, although planeparking made substantial savings by laying off all of their staff as they no longer had to collect or deliver cars, they offered nothing and simply insisted that you pay your renewal on time or be in breach of contract. Abysmal customer satisfaction or concern.”
