“Not Turing up ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 209Moran on 04/11/2021

I booked them 4 weeks prior.. what a big mistake. I even confirmed a day before and my flight was at 6am. Arrived in time called the number continuously for 15 minutes no answer I have 3 children and the mrs sitting in the car with me and I have no clue what do to. At the end I had to quickly book online with another company who was lucky to help at that hour What a close call this was as my flight time was closing Do not use them stay away and avoid What total idiots.

★☆☆☆☆

written by MikeReilly66 on 09/10/2020

I booked through groupon which I thought was decent, Jesus how wrong was I, complete farce of a set up, I knew when I was dropping my car off and I would have driven way if I'd had time, please read these reviews and do not use.

“ALL THE FUEL IN CAR WAS USED UP. RUDE STAFF.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Vodders on 07/03/2020

We arrived as planned and had to pay £4 extra to the driver so he could get off the car park. Upon returning to the car park after the holiday the car was there as arranged. It then cost another £4 to get the car off the car park. On the way home my partner noticed that the previously full fuel tank was now almost empty. The front passenger seat had also been adjusted. I contacted the company and spoke to the same person who had dropped off the car. He got angry and said that it was our fault for not noticing at the time and was unhelpful accusing us of lying about the fuel. I could not recommend this company at all. Customers are providing them with free cars to use for themselves.

“Not recommended”

★☆☆☆☆

written by MichaelN18 on 30/10/2018

Very poor service and rude, too. It took 30 minutes for our car to be brought to us. I rang for an update after ten minutes and again after twenty since it was midnight in October and we had a two-year old with us. The second time, I was told, "I said it was coming three minutes ago, mate," with very obvious irritation. No apology was given for the lateness and the car smelled strongly of body odour when we got it back. "Valet parking"? To a very poor standard. "Elite"? Definitely not!

“AVOID AT ALL COSTS.  Pick up and drop off ok but used...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Geoffh2 on 26/03/2018

AVOID AT ALL COSTS.  Pick up and drop off ok but used 1/4 of a tank of fuel and clocked up over 400 miles in MY car after 1 week which they deny. Please post on as many social media sites as possible ...they cant keep getting away with this

“The worst service ever!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 26/09/2017

The pick up was fine but then when we arrived back at Manchester I called once our bags had been collected and was told they would be 15mins. After 30mins we called again to ask if there whereabouts to be told they were stuck in traffic and would be another 15mins? 1hr 40mins later (we were also travelling with a very cold and tired 2yr old) the guy arrived without a real apology or explanation and the car was filthy and didn’t smell nice. So not only was the experience very unpleasant but now I have to go and pay for my car to have a full valet! DO NOT USE! Use the official Manchester Airport meet and greet instead!

“Just horrendous ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Gibson183 on 04/12/2016

Firstly, booking & pick up was easy. But that is where the positive comments end. When you book 'meet & greet' it's because you don't want to wait around after a 19 hour journey. Expect to wait at least one hour for your car even though the operator informs you it will be 20 minutes. The reason? My car was blocked in by 20 cars, but obviously there was no communication until I called back 30 minutes later. Add to this the disgusting state of the car, the damage done and the huge mileage (near the airport my ...!) this company is a joke, I don't know how they are allowed to trade. Time for another BBC watchdog investigation.

“Avoid car damaged ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 06/11/2016

I am currently getting a case together to present to Manchester trading standards, my Jaguar XF was damaged whilst in their care and they will not accept responsibility for it. there was a poor attempt to cover up the damage by rubbing dirt into the damage but I advised the driver that this had been done in their care? I asked the driver to take me to the compound where we could review the CCTV but this offer was declined ? I have tried on several occasions to obtain an address insurance details and CCTV footage but nothing has come of this.

“Wouldn't trust them ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 12Lopez on 09/10/2016

I am very disappointed. I logged my mileage before they took my car and also filled the car up with diesel. It came back to me with only half a tank of fuel and over 100 miles put on the clock. I would not trust this company with my car again. Please be aware if you use these I would log your mileage and your fuel gauge and question them when getting your car back.

“ABSOLUTLEY RUBBISH”

★☆☆☆☆

written by evogue on 12/09/2016

I have used meet and greet for the last 10 years and this is the worst company I have ever had the displeasure to use. They had me waiting in a no wait zone for 30mins and they would not answer the phone, also there drivers are supposed to be uniformed that is a joke!! also on return I had to wait 30 mins again for my car to be returned and it was in disgusting condition and it looked like some one had been off roading in my car.. this company should be removed from any web site that recommends them as they are utter rubbish..

“Would not recommend , issues on drop off and pick up”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 06/04/2016

We had a booking for 3 cars on the meet and greet service for Manchester airport . I called the number given 20 mins prior to arrival as requested . They had no record of 2 of the 3 booking . Our meet did not turn up until we had been at the airport for 20 minutes . We were moved on twice by security as they only allow a 5/10 minute wait . All a huge inconvenience with children in tow . On the return one car arrived immediately , however the footwell of the drivers side was covered in muddy footprints , car was valeted prior to holiday so we knew this wasn't left by us . 2nd car arrived with a flat tyre - no mention of this on drop off . 3rd car took 45 minutes to arrive , 2 very cold children at 6am . Would not use again . Very disappointed .

“Don't trust them”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Garner10 on 19/01/2016

Going was fine. Coming back. Followed the instructions and still waited 25 minutes in 2 degree temperatures. Car was full of what I can only describe as building sludge on the outside (light brown splatter) and all over the carpets. I didn't expect it clean as it wasn't when I gave it them. It honestly looked like it had been stored on a building site Be careful!

“Would never use again.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by skkelly on 09/05/2015

All ran smoothly until it came to picking my car up. The rear passenger side window had been smashed at some point whilst the car was in the care of elite valet parking, no one at elite valet parking will even acknowledge that it had been smashed and replaced. My rear windows were all tinted to keep the sun off of my young children, when I returned from holiday to pick my car up the tint was missing from the rear passenger side window. When I inspected the interior of the car I found small pieces of broken glass on my one year old daughters car seat. After several phone calls and constant denial about any incident occurring I was informed by the owner/manager that if I had a problem to 'see me in court in 6 months time'. I also noted down my mileage on dropping the car off, and for a 2 mile round trip my car had an extra 20 miles on the clock.  I would avoid like the plague.

don't make me laugh a company fixed your vehicle at no cost an that's your complaint. I've used this company on numerous time, the driver who collect my vehicle got a puncher replaced the type at no cost so I could get mine two kids home at 2am in the morning. excellent service from them ever time.

“DO NOT USE! ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by McKenna007 on 03/10/2012

Having booked through another web site (Looking4Parking) I booked for the valet parking with a free jet wash. As stated on the paperwork I telephoned the mobile number 15 minutes before we were due to arrive at Manchester Airport. The guy said he would be there in 15 minutes, so all well and good we would arrive at aproximately thed same time so no hanging arround. This was not the case, having waited for 15 minutes at the terminal, I rang the mobile number to question where the driver was, only to be verbally abused and told I said 15 minutes which is how long we had been waiting along with the 15 minutes from ringing before. He then turned up 15 minutes later without an apology, we decided to just get on with our holiday, however upon return we then had to wait another 30 minutes before he got to us, not only that but our car hadn't been washed! I have never had such bad service and will in future go back to using Manchester Airport's Meet & Greet Service.

“Impressed 1st time I used E.V.P but Upset and Angry...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Sam.Rycraft on 19/12/2011

I booked with E.V.P in Nov 2011 and found this company to be brilliant, very easy and polite staff. My car was used appropriatley and only covered 4miles round trip from Airport to Car Park. However, when I decided to use E.V.P again 1 month later, I was let down terribly. My car had been used by someone privatley and clocked 23 miles on its clock. I always check my clock before I leave my car and its a good job I did. Nobody will speak to me and tell me the truth, I find this very annoying, upsetting and disheartening. I have worked hard for my car and to have someone use it as and when they feel like it when it is supposed to be locked up securely is sickening. I will NOT be using this company again, nor will many other people after reading this or friends and family.

“Terrible!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by saraazar on 06/09/2011

AWFUL on every count...for the simple fact that we didn't get to use them! We tried calling the '24 hour' number before we arrived at the airport and the phone was switched off. Tried the main number...straight through to voicemail. Ended up having to park in Long Stay, which cost over £100 rather than the £42 we had budgeted to pay. Absolute rubbish.
