Good enough to use regularly

We know what to do. Used them many times. Definitely not as good as they used to be. No help anymore - down to you.

Car was damaged when it was left at this carpark, so i'd be very wary using it!
Booked through holiday extras and flatly refuse to even look into as i didn't report it before leaving.
Yes i should've checked the car before leaving but it'd been a long day and i didn't even think about it

I don't normally write reviews but I am truly shocked by the service received.
A clean undamaged car dropped off, yet a filthy car was returned to me with a crack running halfway along my windscreen.
They have shown no remorse or accountability, despite me paying and trusting them to look after my car.
When I reported the issue I asked why I wasn't made aware of the crack when being handed my keys back. The answer was "we didn't know". Which in itself is a lie, because my car had recently been moved as my dashboard confirmed when I entered the car.
Disgusting and pathetic service, hiding behind T&Cs which rules them out from being liable to literally anything that can go wrong when parking a car (scrapes, bumps, cracked mirrors etc).
I will be taking this further.

Checking in ok and easy

Checking in ok and easy. The fall down is with the return transfer/collection from the airport back to the car. 3 times now I've been sat waiting for minimum 35/40mins after calling. If landing outside of normal hours, expect even longer for the collection.

Very easy to book

Very easy to book, easy to find. The staff are all very friendly and professional. You don’t wait long for a bus to get you to the airport and when you get back the bus is there within 5 minutes.

Staff drop off were abrupt on the phone with customers and sharpe with customers dropping off their cars. Friendly on return though .
On the bus we were okay but there were some elderly travellers that could have done with the driver helping out with their luggage on the racks but they were ignored and other customers were left to help them. This happened on the drop off and pick up.
To be fair the buses were frequent , customers service was non existent but I guess you get what you pay for .
