Rude staff on the telephone and in person on arrival at Gatwick; my car had clearly been used while I was away - the back passenger headrests had been moved (we never change them) and there was an empty snack packet in the back, no one I know has ever eaten in the back of my car; very unimpressed.

Booked through look for parking and when we got there, they checked the car and said one of the tyres was bald that was debatable but we accepted that and said ok we would drive to car parking and asked how much to take us back to the airport and they said £30 for a 3 mile journey. Takes the Mickey because that would have made our parking £100. Very unhappy.

As instructed called 10 mins prior to arrival but had to wait on the pavement at the airport for over half an hour. Repeated calls to dispatch but got hung up on, were told we should allow 25 minutes as that's what the instructions say (which they don't and they were nearly double that anyway) and was told they hadn't dispatched driver until over 20 minutes after we had called. Not a great start to holiday, will try someone else next time.
