Great Value and Reliable

Used ilovemeetandgreet for the first time out of Gatwick. Communication was clear, their prices were the best and car had obviously been handled using PPE equipment. Will use again.

Thank you for your feedback. We have been in correspondance with you concerning alleged damage - your car had left our care and control and you reported damage the following day when you found your trim laying in your drive. Not sure how you drove home and then it conveniently fell off in your drive. Its a shame that some people make fraudulent claims for damage in order to get their cars repaired and then leave teriible reviews because they did not achieve this.

Always use ILMAG every time I Fly through Gatwick. Service is impeccable anytime day or night. Due to extra COVID safety requirements my flight was delayed however they still delivered and patient service with a smile. The car is always returned spotless and on time. Keep up the good work.

Stress free airport parking

Going away during everything that is going on was stressful by itself, these guys made the process complete stress free from start to finish. Very efficient and prompt service. The staff were very informative with instructions of where to drop off and where to meet on return. I would recommend these guys to everyone I know

First class customer service

First class customer service! I can’t understand some of the negative reviews on here. They clearly do not know great customer service when they see it. This company stands out from the rest, because they always put the customers needs first. Even in this COVID world that we live in, you can clearly see that the safety of their customers and staff are their number one priority.

Thank you to the entire team at I love meet and greet, reading the reviews below made me very sad. I completely sympathise with every other customer that has struggled with refunds I was in the same position as you but decided to used their voucher option instead and was pleasantly surprised with the entire service from start to finish when we decided to go to Greece.

Thank you I love meet and greet I know times are tough but I implore anyone with parking needs to use these guys.

Sorted out our puncture

Very good - when we had a puncture they picked us up, and we met the car in the local tyre shop which they had taken there. Car fixed, no charge. C helpful in a ‘one of those things’ moment. Thanks

Absolutely disgusted with the way my car has come back, I brought it to you spotless and you have literally parked it under a tree for 9 days. It’s not on. It’s covered in SAP I can’t even open the windows it’s that bad.

I’ve always used this company but I won’t be using them again or recommending them to anybody.

Booked parking back in March then due to Covid got cancelled. Asked for a refund and they said no and offered a voucher. After pursuing they eventually refunded me less £10 and said that’s an admin charge. Said I didn’t accept that and wanted all my money back. They haven’t done that and said they’ll offer £10 discount on next booking. Used these guys a few times before and all ok but this is shocking customer service and won’t use them again. Very poor and little consideration towards the customers and not pleasant to deal with on the phone or via email. For future reference try Maple parking, purple parking, looking4parking or APH are very good.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that charging you a £10 admin as per or T&Cs has left you fgeeling unable to use our service again. The other Companies you listed would also have charged the £10 admin fee as we all incur costs in processing your booking at outset and refunding it as requested by you.

Poor customer service. Very rude staff and total scammers. Definitely look elsewhere when booking airport parking

Thanks for your feedback. We have maintained dialogue with all our customers during lock down, answering questions and cancelling bookings as per our Terms & Conditions with very limited staff. Most clients have ben totally appreciative of this and supportive. A few have not. Your booking was refunded as per our terms and there has been no scam as alleged.

Very Bad customer service!

I had to cancel my booking due to covid 19. I contacted customer services and was offered a voucher which i declined. I requested a refund. After several emails back and forth. This was agreed. I supplied my bank details and was told it was processed. A week later i had not received the money so i chased it. I got a very abrupt email saying it would take 7-14 working days. I was not impressed but let it go. I received the refund which was less than expected. I asked why and was told about the admin fee. This was not explained to me previously.If it had of been i would have taken the voucher, without any deductions. We exchanged several further emails. I found the customer service team's replies rude. They refused to refund the fee. As somebody who works in a customer service department I was flabbergasted. They obviously do not like customer complaints.They informed me that they did not want me as a customer and that they were deleting me from their database. They cancelled my next bookings. One of which was through a third party. I asked them to call me to discuss the problem. This was ignored and another abrupt email was received instead. I was a long term and loyal customer. They are fine and more than happy to take your money. Until you want to complain or ask for a refund. Only use them if you definitely will not want to cancel. If you do be prepared for a fight!! I will never use them again and would not recommend them due to their terrible customer service!
Addendum . Reply just received alleging that i was rude and threatening. I dispute this and if they had a governing body I would have reported them for their behaviour. Apparently they do not have one. Beware of using this company!

Thank you for your feedback. A voucher was issued in line with our current procedure . You demanded a refund. It is not right for you to slate our business and be offensive whilst we are doing our best to provide customer service to all our clients during these difficult times . As a Company we do not tolerate rude and threatening behaviour and as a result have removed you from our database.

Supersaver? Don't think so!

I have used ILMAG regularly at Gatwick for a number of years now and not had a problem. Was flying to Florida this June 2020 and booked their Supersaver product. Due to COVID19 the whole trip was cancelled: no flights, no visitors to USA etc so contacted them to cancel parking, Yes...they did respond (twice actually). Their response: Check your T&C's on this product and if you cancel or change, it's not refundable or changeable. I didn't cancel. Everyone else cancelled our trip. Would have been satisfied with a voucher for future use, not a refund, but they have refused. As a regular customer, and having spent quite a bit of money at a time when income has virtually disappeared, the response of effectively 'tough s**t' has really left a sour taste in my mouth. Their web-site talks about vouchers and refunds for cancelled flights with no mention of 'supersaver' excluded, but they have still given me a flat 'no'. Very disappointed and won't use them again on this basis.
Sub Note: Despite the original response, I contacted them as per their response below and received a voucher, apology and advice on future booking. Confidence restored and thank you for your prompt action ILMAG.

The voucher was sent to you on the 19th May. Please check your emails and the last email we had from you was on 19th May when we responded and issued the voucher. Not sure why you are saying we have not replied when we clearly did.
