Gibt man Hausnummer 34 ins Navigationssystem ein, wird man zu einem Parkplatz direkt nebenan geleitet. Dieser ist jedoch sehr teuer, und es gibt keinen Hinweis darauf, dass einer der Parkplätze zu ParkBee gehört. Sobald man in der App auf das Einfahrtstor klickt, sieht man nur den Ausfahrt-Button. Ich hatte den Eindruck, dass es sich um Betrug handelte, da ich zusätzlich zur bereits gebuchten Gebühr nun über 40 € extra für zwei Tage bezahlt habe. Das ist alles sehr ärgerlich. Der Kundenservice ist miserabel, da wird keinem geholfen und der Person von der anderen Parkplatz sehr frech und unfreundlich! **Developer response:** Hi, Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass die Beschilderung und die Navigation unklar waren. Wir verstehen, dass dies sehr ärgerlich ist. Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns per E-Mail unter support@parkbee.com mit Ihrer Buchungsnummer, damit wir den Fall prüfen und Ihnen weiterhelfen können. - Team ParkBee ### 1/5 — Terrible - zero customer service *2025-11-10, version 1.6.2* App doesn’t work, it doesn’t send verification codes so there is no way to sign up. I’m sat here waiting for a response from the non existent customer service - no response via whatsapp or email and no way to speak to a human. Parkbee is far from stress free. Avoid at all costs. ### 1/5 — App does not recognise my Vehicle at Parking location *2025-11-09, version 1.6.2* I booked a parking session in advance, when I arrived at the parking location there were no barriers, I however tried to start the parking session, which is supposed to either open the barrier, if there was one, or at the very least recognise my vehicle is at parking location. Since app did not verify my parking I drove in and out of the parking location. Getting help from ParkBee is none existent. It would appear it uses AI to respond to messages. In the situation I was in that was not helpful. I contacted ParkBee again someday later, again I was speaking to AI. They asked if I wanted human interaction. I said yes but received no further communication. They have taken my payment but I did not receive the service. If it were possible, I would have given 0* for this experience. ### 1/5 — Avoid this app *2025-10-10, version 1.5.13* Got this app to book parking in Edinburgh. When I arrived at the car park, the barrier didn’t open and the attendant had not received the booking. ParkBee did not respond to my questions. When I left the car park two days later, the booking had still not arrived. A day later, got an email saying “unfortunate”. Stressful and wasted my time trying to contact a useless company. ### 1/5 — Not great *2025-09-28, version 1.5.13* Poor system. If you dont “end your parking session” in the app they will charge you extra. If I book 3 hours I only want 3 hours. I don’t want you to extend my parking for me by default. Support says you’ll hear back in 12 hours… 24 hours later I’m still waiting. The strap line is “parking at the best prices”. Not true. They charged me £8.49. If I had paid the company who own the site it would have cost me £5. I’ll not be using these guys again. Would not recommend. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Stressful *2026-07-28, version 1.15.1* I wasn’t able to open the qrs code at the car park and the machine didn’t appear to be working so tried to pay on app. Would not accept my times so I have paid for 4h from leaving car park not the time I was in there. I have never been so worried about getting a fine in the current financial climate. The whole process was poor stressful and no number to contact is not helpful ### 1/5 — Stressful Parking *2026-06-27, version 1.13.0* Terrible concept. Online support just give generic straightforward answers, charge ridiculous amounts for parking and offer zero instant support. This is why a ticket system is the best. No fuss and no stress. Going backwards as a society. ### 1/5 — Car Clamped! AVOID !! *2026-06-21, version 1.12.3* After paying for parking my car was clamped, it was eventually removed at no cost but was hassle time wasted. ### 1/5 — Finger weg *2026-06-07* Nie wieder Park Bee. Kamen nachts nach Delft zurück um halb 2 und konnten nicht auf den Parkplatz fahren. Dann darf man sich per App mit einem Chat-Bot ärgern und es führt zu nichts. Die Buchung ging bis 11:30 vormittags. Angeblich gäbe es keine aktive Buchung. 10 Minuten standen wir vor der geschlossenen Schranke. Wir mussten dann ins Parkhaus und dort natürlich zusätzlich zum bereits bezahlten Park Bee Parkplatz bezahlen. Unseriöse Firma. Lasst die Finger davon und parkt woanders. **Developer response:** Hi Dennis, Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Sie nachts in Delft nicht auf den Parkplatz zugreifen konnten und dadurch zusätzliche Kosten entstanden sind. Wir verstehen, wie frustrierend und stressig diese Situation gewesen sein muss. Das entspricht nicht dem Service, den wir bieten möchten. Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns unter support@parkbee.com mit Ihren Buchungsdaten, damit wir den Vorfall untersuchen und uns Ihren Fall genauer ansehen können. - Team ParkBee ### 1/5 — Very stressful parking *2026-06-06, version 1.12.2* I bought the parking online then the app took ages to download, when buying the parking it wasn’t obvious you would need to download an app to access your paid parking. Once at the carpark you have to go into your app to allow you into the carpark. I kept pressing start parking so that the parking would start and allow me in but nothing was happening. In the end because there was a queue behind me I had to press for a ticket. I end up spending about 14€ for 2h15m. I would not recommend this app! ### 1/5 — Very bad experience *2026-04-25, version 1.11.0* Very poor experience and extremely stressful. I booked and paid for parking through ParkBee, and my vehicle arrived during the valid booking period. I later stayed longer, and ParkBee also took an additional payment from my account for the extra time. So the parking was paid for. Despite this, I received a £100 Parking Charge Notice from the enforcement company claiming there was no valid parking session/electronic permit. When I first contacted support, I was told to deal with the PCN company myself, even though the booking and payments were made through ParkBee. Only later did ParkBee say they would “request a review” and “see if it can be revoked,” which gives me no confidence at all. This is unacceptable because I only have a short time left before the charge increases / becomes payable in full. I should not be left at risk of paying £100 for parking that I already paid for, including the additional time. ParkBee need to take responsibility and get this cancelled urgently, not just say they will try. I relied on their service, paid them, and followed the advice given. Now I am the one being chased for a penalty. I would not recommend using ParkBee unless they can guarantee that paid bookings are properly recognised and that customers are protected from unfair PCNs. ### 1/5 — Pointless app *2026-04-11, version 1.10.0* I couldn’t book anything! Deleted the app strait away ### 1/5 — Scam - do not use *2026-03-30, version 1.9.1* Booked parking through ParkBee and then received a fine from ParkingEye claiming we didn’t have a reservation. Several letters since pressuring to pay for fine. ParkBee absolutely useless and have since claimed we didn’t use the reservation. Avoid at all costs. ### 1/5 — DO NOT USE *2025-12-18, version 1.7.0* I have used ParkBee twice for parking and both times I have received fines from the parking lots saying I have not paid. ### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish *2025-12-13* Almost unusable, drains battery like crazy, phone gets hot, parking locations don’t load. **Developer response:** Hi, Thank you for your review.

Het openen van de stalen poort verloopt betrouwbaar. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your review.

Hat perfekt geklappt *2025-01-02* Wir hatten vorab mit der App einen Parkplatz in einem Parkhaus in Brüssel reserviert und bezahlt. Es hat alles einwandfrei und reibungslos geklappt.
