"Quick and easy. I would definitely use again"

"Excellent. No hassle - very secure and right next to airport"

"Very convenient"

"Booking was quick and easy but the barrier didn't go up either on entry or exit. We had to press for a ticket to get in and had to call for assiatance to get out. We arrived and left at the specified times so not mich faith in the system to use it again. Can you tell me why this happened? Thanks."

"I found that the service was very efficient and easy to use, the closeness of the car park to the terminal made everything so much easier, I would most definitely use this service again."

"Excellent and simple arrived at barrier recognised reg number parked .on return enterered ticket straight out no problems"

"Terrific. Such straightforward parking just a short stroll from the terminal. Surely the best arrangement at any airport in the UK? Will do this again. Thanks."

"Long-stay car-parking not fully signed on the way into the airport.
Long-stay 2 easy to enter and very convenient for the terminal.
On exit the terminal didn't open automatically but a call using the button on the pedestal by the gate had the gate open quickly."

"Short walk to terminal. Good price for a week. Comparable to other airports. Highly recommend Southend as a departure airport."

"It would have been excellent apart from the fact that the camera on entry misread the registration plate. It showed "Y12NVA" instead of "SY12NVA".
As a result on trying to leave the carpark I was requested to pay £435.00!! I queried this with the operator (through the intercom) and was released without further payment being taken.
I have been to similar carparks in the past and never had a problem."

"Faultless"

"Convenient and reliable and safe"

"East access for our first time use of this car park. Highly recommended to all our friends and family. Thank you."

"It's neat the airport and the barrier opens automatically on arrival and exit - simple and easy to use."

"So easy! Turn up, automatically let in. Name and reg number is displayed on the screen inspiring confidence. On leaving just as quick. Literally 2 minutes walk to the airport."

"Easy to drive in. Parking close to terminal. Drove straight out after. Absolute breeze.30400"

"Very easy and no problems"

"Very conveniently located within a few minutes' walk of terminal. Plenty of spaces. The numberplate recognition on arrival worked very well, so absolutely no complaints."

"Brilliant service and car park. Recommended!"

"only problem was on exit, barrier did not lift took 5 minutes to contact someone"

"Arrival was satisfactory; number plate recognition worked well; ticket was dispensed promptly.

Departure was appalling! Only one departure lane was in use and there was a queue of vehicles having difficulty leaving. My ticket, together with most other drivers, was rejected by the only working ticket machine and, after speaking to a distant operator, I had to walk 200 metres in the rain to a 'pay here machine' where I inserted my ticket; its was ejected with a message saying, "Thank You, Drive Safely". When I returned to the barrier (and another 10 minute wait in the queue) the ticket was again rejected. I again had to use the machine's call button and speak to the operator who was opening the barrier manually for some drivers. As I waited for the operator, the barrier opened and I left. The problem appeared to be a breakdown in the online booking software at the airport - indeed one driver who had booked and pre-paid online was asked for £75 every time he inserted his ticket!

I have used BCP parking at Gatwick many times, and once before at Southend, without any problems. I was very disappointed with the service at Southend Airport on this occasion."

"Easy parking but didn't read registration on entry so problem getting out!!"
