Poor app, poor company

My account was enrolled for autopay, or so i thought, i added a car via the app, easy enough, done, off to work i go, i had to drive a different vehicle as someone had wrote my car off.

I realised no money had been taken from my account, and contacted customer support, who informed me that although i had added a car, it doesn’t add it for autopay, and i cannot pay for the 2 occasions i parked prior.

A couple days later, i have 2 parking fines come through the post, they can do nothing to help, i have to appeal, and funnily enough, the companies website they use, crashes when i try to appeal, avoid where possible, they’ll catch you out at every possible chance they get

Doesn’t Accept International Phone Numbers

Does not accept international phone numbers and doesn’t explain the format it’s expecting. Can’t pay

No dice for international travelers

As many others have mentioned frequently, you must use a UK number. Unfortunately this is not mentioned, the app gives obscure error codes, and the website gives even worse codes and errors Ended up using a random restaurant number to make it work (sorry to whatever restaurant it was).

Apparently you can have customer service do this manually, but who has time to wait for an agent while standing in a parking lot with your kids impatiently waiting?

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear about the issues you encountered. Kindly note, our Technical Team had to implement a temporary stop to non-UK numbers from being able to create an account or sign up with us to prevent fake accounts from being created. As you rightfully mentioned, our customer service team can provide a temporary UK number if needed, but we understand this can be time-consuming. We’re working on ways to improve the experience and make the process more efficient. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please reach out to our Customer Support team by visiting YourParkingSpace.co.uk and going to the Contact Us page, or by sending a WhatsApp message to 07418 360 404.

SCAM BEWARE!

I booked parking via this app in Newport for the marathon, they advertised spaces at quite a few locations. I paid and received my booking confirmation. When I turned up at the location, a well known gym chain they had no idea what I was talking about. The gym had not let any of their parking spaces to this company. The gym were very kind and let me park because they knew I was about to run a marathon and they didn't want to stress me out! The manager called the head office and they had no idea either of a deal with the company to buy parking spaces. I paid for a parking space the company has no right to sell. BEWARE! I’ve seen other people report similar versions of my experience. I'm deleting this app.

This is probably the second worst implemented app I have ever used. The UI/UX is abysmal and has clearly never been tested by real humans under real world conditions. Your Product Managers should be ashamed and your devs fired. You clearly don’t employ testers.

Please fix asap!

It continues to show me spaces that are not available on the dates selected for monthly parking.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry for the inconvenience with the availability of parking spaces. It’s frustrating to see spaces that don’t match your selected dates. We’re working to improve the accuracy of space availability in our app. If you could provide more details or specific examples to appreviews@yourparkingspace.co.uk, it would help us address this issue more effectively.

Horrible App for NonUK resident.

In this global age the app only accepts UK mobile number is simply incompetent or inconsiderate. You will need some type of UK phone number.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback. Currently, our app only supports UK mobile numbers for verification due to system limitations. In the meantime, our Customer Care team can provide a temporary UK number to assist with your booking. If you need further assistance or have additional concerns, please contact our support team by visiting YourParkingSpace.co.uk and going to the Contact Us page, or by sending a WhatsApp message to 07418 360 404.

Poor Compared to Others

I’ve used lots of different parking apps for the various different brands and I found this one by far the hardest to set up and use. The car park was full of cameras and signs saying the cars number plate had already been scanned and there as only a short time to pay. I entered my details multiple times, but the continue button remained greyed out with no explanation as to why and despite the fact that I’d chosen I’ve already parked and the car park being a field that was less than a quarter full it kept flashing up a message saying there were no spaces to book. The worst thing though I found was that there was nowhere in the app until after I’d managed to pay, or on any of the signs in the car park with a phone number to ring for assistance.

Painful frustrating experience for space owners

Now whenever I try to login to see a booking that somebody has made for my own parking space that I have listed (using the booking links from confirmation emails) it directs me to the app where I can only see parking I've paid for in public spaces and the driver view. In the past I've had to switch between driver and owner views, I now can't access my Space owner View anywhere, I have a booking this weekend at my home space which I'm trying to check and now can't access the details to contact the owner or view my account balance to receive my earnings and so on. Awful experience sadly. Shame as it's such a great idea to rent out your spare parking spaces to earn a little bit of money and help other people. 😞
