Meet and greet parking tips from the BBC

Your Money Their Tricks programme covered holiday problems last week and highlighted problems with a few meet and greet parking companies at Gatwick, Heathrow and Luton Airport.

The programme tested two meet and greet parking companies at each of the airports and then offered tips for customers of meet and greet parking.

While the full programme is no longer available on BBC iPlayer, there is a short video giving tips to customers - it can be viewed here:

The short video also makes mention of Gatwick Airport's new Approved Operator Scheme for meet and greet parking companies, which currently has nine members.

A list of Approved Operators can be found here http://www.gatwickairport.com/business/opportunities/approved-operator-scheme/ - scroll to the bottom of the page for names.

The meet and greet parking companies that Your Money Their Tricks had a problem with at Gatwick were NOT members of the Approved Operator Scheme.
