Excellent facility, rude reception

Excellent facility, close to the airport, simple process but the staff at the drop off desk were rude and threw the receipts and call cards at me.

Thank you for your review.

We're delighted to hear that you found our facility convenient, close to the airport and the overall process simple.

We are, however, very sorry to hear about your experience with our team at the drop-off desk. Receipts and call cards should always be handed to customers courteously, and the behaviour you have described is not the level of customer service we expect from our staff.

We apologise for the poor impression this created and will ensure your feedback is raised with the relevant team.

We appreciate your positive comments about the facility and hope to provide you with a five-star experience next time.

Many Thanks,

Cophall Park & Ride Gatwick

Great service

We have been using Cophall parking for years and have never had a problem. It is a bit harder these days as at 70 humping your own suitcases on and off the bus, especially when busy, is not easy! But other than that its a great service!

I would have rated 5 starts if

I would have rated 5 starts. But at numerous times while I was on holiday I got a notification from my car app to tell me the vehicle had been left unlocked. I appreciate that they might have to move cars around etc, but when I got the first notification, I kept an eye on it and my vehicle was left unlocked for almost 3 hours.. luckily we have access to this information but what about the people that don’t. I did email and I got an apology but since that email, it happened again. A little unsure about the trusting them again.

Thank you for your feedback.

We're sorry for the concern caused by the notifications from your vehicle app and appreciate why this left you feeling uneasy.

As part of our operation, vehicles are block parked within our secure compound to maximise capacity and ensure the efficient movement of customers' vehicles. During these movements, vehicles may occasionally remain unlocked for short periods whilst being repositioned. However, they remain within our secure compound, which is protected by security measures and CCTV at all times.

We're pleased that you contacted us directly and that we were able to respond to your concerns. We appreciate that the notifications continued afterwards, but we would like to reassure you that your vehicle remained within our secure storage facility throughout its stay.

Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention, and we hope this provides some reassurance.

Many Thanks,

Car not ready on return and then 45 minute wait

Despite knowing that we were due to land at 2pm and a phone call whilst we were at baggage reclaim when we arrived back at Cophal our car waz not waiting for us.

Initialy we were told there was a power cut and they were behind moving the cars due to not having the information and then told that a car needed jump starting at the top of our cars row.

We ended up waiting 45 minutes for our car after a long flight and the due to the delay ended up stuck in traffic after an accident on the M25 which we would have missed if our car was ready.

Very disapointed as we have never had an issue at cophal before but believe that knowing we are coming they should be getting the cars out with plenty of time to deal with any issues and have it ready for us.

We're sorry to hear that you were unable to apply your discount code. This certainly isn't the experience we want our customers to have.

Please could you email customerservices@cophallparking.co.uk with a copy of the promotional email you received, the discount code and, if possible, a screenshot of the issue. We'd be happy to investigate what happened and identify whether there was a technical issue.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.
