### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-12-08, version 4.2.0*

No longer displays parking zone prices. This renders the app practically useless.

### 1/5 — Awful, just awful

*2024-10-19, version 4.2.0*

The app is almost unusable. Use the website.

### 1/5 — Beware

*2024-10-12, version 4.2.0*

Paid for a month in advance + bond and haven’t heard anything since.

### 1/5 — buyer beware

*2024-05-16, version 4.2.0*

rented a car space and then on the date of use the owner informed me someone had parked so close to their space that the spot would be very difficult to enter (in actual fact impossible). I think now probably a scam from the owner. Thing is when I approached Parkhound and advised them of the issue they told me they had already paid the owner of the spot despite me having no use of it. Been over a month now and while they have returned the $100 bond  they have not returned the $97.50 owed, just provided excuses and blamed the owner for not returning the funds (which they say they have done). Now they have stopped responding to my emails. In summary,  total waste of time for 0 service. Woeful customer support and I will never use again.

### 1/5 — Average

*2024-04-27, version 4.2.0*

Constantly signs you out. I’ve missed booking requests because of this. 
They state 1-2 days for Payments to your bank it’s more like 1-2 weeks. 

Poor form customer service is useless too.

### 1/5 — My credit card has been charged and I have no car park

*2024-04-09, version 4.2.0*

The owner of the car park I booked accepted the booking and said she would meet me to give me access.  Now a day later is saying that she no longer wants to rent it out. Parkhound has already taken the payment for a month and a deposit of $200 on top for a key security deposit.

### 1/5 — This app needs a serious overhaul

*2023-12-14, version 4.2.0*

This app is so hard to use. I don’t know if I’ve ever experienced it using an app that is so dysfunctional it’s almost not even worth trying.

When you look in specific areas, you can’t even put a date range for search in, and when scrolling through the different car spaces, sometimes, even though you were clicking on a different spot, the physical listing doesn’t even change, and when you try and click the button to go back, it is so far up the top left-hand of the screen and also sitting on top of a function for the phone itself, most of the time the back button doesn’t work

I tried to make a booking and it told me that the owner of the car space had to confirm the booking and then the next morning I received a confirmation and the owner of the car space hadn’t actually confirmed and that park Hound had confirmed on their behalf, which then meant I had been charge for the booking and I couldn’t even use the space. And while I did get a refund. The multiple times that I have physically tried to contact Park hound asking questions, I have never had a response. You need to lift your game.

And one more thing. You need to put in height restriction limits for physical car spaces. Probably one of the most important things when you are a company renting out garages through third parties

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2023-09-24, version 4.2.0*

Stick to website - this app is unusable

### 1/5 — Dosnt work

*2023-06-17, version 4.2.0*

Unfortunately the app tells you to enter your full address after entering you full address

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2023-03-11, version 4.2.0*

You guys are a total rip off. I found out how much extra you charge on top of the actual parking rate. Better off going directly to the owner than throwing money away to you guys

### 2/5 — Poor app - very laggy - not in sync with website

*2023-03-09, version 4.2.0*

I tried the app first and it wouldn’t let me create a listing. I switched to the website and was able to create the listing, but it took 5 days to show up in the app. Even now when I try to edit the price or any other detail in the app, it either won’t save the change or it automatically shuts the app down. Very frustrating experience - we’ll see if it improves or the listing at least generates some income.

### 1/5 — Has potential, but not yet fit for purpose

*2023-02-27, version 4.2.0*

Parkhound has potential, but unfortunately their is no protection for people wanting to lease a car space.

My car park was advertised as secure and private, but I noticed scratches and damage almost immediately after using the car space. When I checked the camera footage my secure car space was being used extensively by the building tenants as it was close to the door.

Parkhound didn't offer any adequate support other than quoting the only protection for renters which is “you only have protection for the first 48hrs of a booking”. So I had to pay an entire month for a car space that was not as described, and my car was damaged in the process.

I wouldn’t recommend Parkhound until they have better protections for both parties.

### 1/5 — Terrible experience

*2023-02-14, version 4.2.0*

I downloaded yesterday and it’s been nothing but a headache. Bad app interface and dodgy parking hosts who are unreliable and provide incorrect contact information.

### 1/5 — No support

*2022-12-04, version 4.2.0*

Take a cut of the rental but then there is no support. No one to call. They don’t answer emails. They don’t keep copies of leases nothing. What are you paying for?

### 1/5 — What a mess

*2022-08-14, version 4.2.0*

App is barely usable, text boxes and buttons are hidden, you cant see what you're messaging about, theres no way to filter results in a usable manner.

Turned me off the platform entirely.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-07-25, version 4.2.0*

Literally does nothing, not worth your time

### 1/5 — Huge cancellation fee apply

*2022-04-01, version 4.2.0*

This app only good for landlords NOT for Renter. 

There is no guarantee for renter to get the parking spot. Booked 4x and landlord not even reply my request.

Once landlord approved your booking and you want to cancel. There is expensive cancellation fee. Thinking about before use this app.

### 1/5 — Easy to use but lose money

*2022-03-15, version 4.2.0*

I found a car park quickly bu using this app. But the last month, after I got charged by Parkhound, the ownership of the car park changed and I cannot use it anymore, I report it immediately and after 1 month, no one contact me from Parkhound. There is no customer service. That means I paid for nothing. And I still did not get my deposit back till now. Think well before you register your credit card in this App.

### 1/5 — This App is fraud! They spend money to ask someone to give them 5 stars

*2022-02-17, version 4.2.0*

This App fraud me $330！No parking! No one answered phone! They disappeared after I paid that much!

A great idea but a frustration to use.

### 1/5 — Never had to leave a review

*2025-12-10, version 4.2.0*

I’ve never felt inclined to leave a review on an app before. But this is truly a buggy app. No time or resources spent on it. Such a shame, would be awesome if it worked well.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-11-19, version 4.2.0*

The app just doesn’t work. I ended up having to login on the website version and that works fine. Don’t expect any customer service either. They don’t reply or reply a few days later when you email them.

### 1/5 — It’s a scam

*2025-10-10, version 4.2.0*

They take your money, don’t provide a car space and then don’t respond.  Avoid at all costs.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-03-25, version 4.2.0*

After ordering parking lot the detail was fake! Customer service also no response!

### 1/5 — Sloppily designed

*2025-01-27, version 4.2.0*

Very hard to use and impossible to activate some features. On iPhone 15.

### 1/5 — Absolutely kraptastic!

*2025-01-07, version 4.2.0*

These guys are absolute clowns, they rip you off with a 30% mark up, customer service is terrible and the app is full of bugs!

Don’t use them!!!

*2019-04-07, version 4.0.2*

I was so excited about the app and already use Parkhound 
The app is really great as I am on the go and needed an one stop shop from mobile 
So the app is seamless in its customer journey and therefore quickly takes you through the journey without any bother at all 
Well done to the tech team
