On arrival instead of dropping my car off there were cones out and I was told to park my car myself in a open bay up the side. If this is meet and greet then I want a refund.

For the second time in a row I had problems exiting the car park neither my ticket nor number plate was recognised. Phone call to help line at the barrier took a long time to answer and then they want to know all sorts of information before they will lift the barrier. On returning to the airport all you want is to get home not this hassle especially when they charge exhorbitant fees to use second rate facilities

Airport parking throughout the UK is ludicrously expensive as some journalists have pointed out its more expensive to park your car at the airport than small aircraft owners pay to park their aircraft. Indeed it can often be more expensive to park your car for 2 weeks than to get a return flight to Spain. Laughably or I suppose cryably this is even after the pretend 60% off that everyone even the airport websites pretend to offer.

date of return oct early hour sat 21/10/17 florida flight landing approx 6am. On return to the vehicle the previous bus had broken down which meant double travellers were starting to pile onto the vehicle.There was lack of storage and seats and after a long haul flight particularly with young children was very tiring and stressful. When we finally got to our stop after many stops and starts and climbing over one another,and found our vehicle.We went to drive out and the barrier had not recognised our vehicle reg on admission. It stated we owed nearly 200 pounds parking which after the expensive holiday,long flight and tiredness i thought was just going to finish him off! The guy in the office was quite abrupt stating I needed to produce my paperwork as proof. After digging it out of the bags and proving my 87.00 proof of payment we were then let through the barrier!!! not good newcastle !!! shame on you!! we won't be using you again and will use a taxi service next time. Its a shame as we have used you a lot over the past few years. Will not be using again.

It took too long to find an avaiable space on arrival. On our return the long stay bus stop was not well sign posted or evident from outside departures. When we found the bus stop/shelter a notice informed us that due to construction work to go to another location, but this collection point again was not clearly signed. On searching for new location of bus stop and looking for arrival of bus we gave up and then walked to car park to find our car(we were not the only customers to do this). In all this delayed our journey back home by an hour(instead of 2hrs it was 3) which could have been avoided by much improved signage. We will not use your car parking facility again.

The last 2 occasions I have had an issue with number plate recognition and having to call helpline to exit cat park. (I have a 4wd and I assume it is a height issue. Sort your cameras out please

On arrival back from our trip the card we had would not lift the barrier I was at fault for not having paper work with me but the lady who I dealt with was very unhelpful and quite rude she needs in my opinion to be sent on a customer service course I will think twice before using this car park again

No one thee to hand over keys and the car left open when i mentioned both point responce was "i was off site collectiong cars so i left your (s) cars open in case it was raining. as we was to know. Security risk and it is called "Meet & Greet" i a very regular customer every month check & you will see and this is starting to happen more and more. Pleae stop having no one there to meet the flights. My last trip last week i booked short stay insead it was quicker no need to wait for staf to turn up to the "Hut", stood after a long trip out in the cold NOT GOOD Enough!!

prebooked for the 3rd consecutive week and every week I've had to use the intercom to exit the car park. Not a big issue, but when you have to wait over 2 minutes until someone answers the intercom it becomes quite frustrating. Three weeks in a row???

The number plate recognition was not working and caused a backlog at the gates when trying to leave

Although pre booked, too many cars and not enough spaces to accommodate demand. Excactly the same yesterday 18/10/2017 with customers parking on areas they probably should not.

Every time I pre book my parking I always encounter a problem on arriving at the exit barrier delaying my journey home

The camera that should recognise our number plate missed the first letter of our registration which meant that the problem had to be sorted out by going to the office nearby with our luggage in the rain.

Probably the worst airport I have been to anywhere in the world. Let me explain..: it would be pleasant to have a smiling face on entry to the boarding pass/passport service, it seems to be an effort by ALL who work in that section to be miserable, unwelcoming and at times very abrupt. After that experience the food and drink offering is abysmal and expensive. Bar prices are typical 5 star hotel prices but the selection of food is fast food or fast food which has been prepared and pre cooked somewhere else then re heated on your premises. That’s what it seems like?! What happened to the nice restaurant where an al a carte meal and bottle of wine could be enjoyed at your leisure before your flight?. The airport now offers an expensive pre paid lounge where you can have a drink with nuts, crisps and snacks...and a free paper to read! Whoop eee! On the return landing it always seems to be a surprise to airside staff that a plane has landed...we sat on the plane for a very uncomfortable 20mins last time whilst someone found some steps, the last 4 times, this year we have travelled we have had a similar experience not the same delay but almost! On arrival on 06/10/17 at 1am the escalator was off the chap said when I asked why.... if I had more time I would have put the barriers out so you could go round them...ok it was late at night or early morning, reason or excuse? You decide. Seriously, one of the best airports I have used this year was Southampton, they have it right.. I have been through Southampton as said, Guernsey Palma, alacante, Malaga Newcastle this year and that is the pecking order of excellence in performance... I have emailed you several times previously to state my case....and no response from you....please improve! Regards Julian Tagger

The last time was diabolical. I book medium stay parking, and when I arrived, park after park was blocked off, as full with no entry. I ended up finding a space after driving around for ages, miles away. On my return the bus was congested with people getting on and blocking the aisle for those of us wanting to get off.

This car park is ridiculously expensive, and the number-plate recognition system does not work. Rip-Off car Park !!!

When you book a car park which has an advertised 10 min collection on return to the airport from holiday that is what you should expect. We arrived back around 20.05 on the 6/10/17 and arrived at the bus stop shortly after. We notified the office we were there using the phone as requested and were told the bus would be there in 10 mins. After 15 mins we phoned again and the person on the other end told us quite rudely that it would be a further 10 to 15 mins. We pointed out that we had already waited over 15 mins and he told us to wait longer. After a total of 25 mins we phoned again...and the bus arrived. If you cannot offer the service advertised in October then don't advertise it. I have used this company two or three times a year over the last ten years. Very disappointed at the service but more so the attitude.

Nobody checked the car when arrived just took the keys and gave me a card, you used to carry out vehicle checks and mileage / fuel checks. The car settings had been changed and I can understand someone wanting to extend the leg room driver side but the passenger seat settings were also changed as were the mirrors, I will use again simply because you are closest to the terminal building but in my estimation you have gone downhill.
