ParkWhiz Arvostelua 1 654

Fraudulent company. Reserved a prepaid spot. Upon arrival pass didn’t work -was told that parking garage was in no way connected to ParkWhiz and that many people show up there with the same scam. Called for refund and was told I wasn’t guaranteed one but they would look into it. WTH!

Used the Canadian site. Clicked on the address in the Peking pass email which took me to the wrong parking lot, got a ticket. They claim no responsibility but I have proof of their mistake.

Website doesn't work, parking should be free ofc. Can't even edit search on mobile or interact at all with site.

I purchased three parking passes this past weekend at three different garages. NONE of the parking passes worked and I had to pay again at the parking lots. How is it possible that ParkWhiz is still in business? Do not trust ParkWhiz - it is a fraudulent company

Purchase your concert parking and then when it doesn’t work they aren’t responsible, can get you a refund in 5 days or you can buy another and hope it works while you wait for your refund. Scam middle man

Fraudulent third party! Do not book through this company, when they inevitably charge an inaccurate and exorbitant amount onto your credit card, they are impossible to contact and you will have a hard time recovering money from the scam. Do not give them your CC number. Book directly with the lot, not a middleman I would trust again.

If I could give it a zero, I would. Worst experience ever. I paid for a couple hours of street side parking near St Bonifice hospital at the provided Pay station along the sidewalk. 4 days later my bank (CIBC) detects an attempted fraudulent charge of $1,249 and notifies me. We promptly deny the charges. Upon contacting CIBC, the support person indicated the attempted charge came from Affirm & the purchaser was Parkwhiz. So obviously they have internal staff using card information and to make personal purchases routed through Affirm in attempt to deflect the purchasers information.

********At all cost, DO NOT use your credit card for Parkwhiz!!!!!

I’m never using ParkWhiz again. Booked at lot in NYC on Friday and when I arrived they were full and said they don’t care if I have reservation through ParkWhiz. Same thing happened the next day. And then I booked another garage until midnight, but lot closed at 11pm and had to leave hockey game early. Now they’re trying to figure out how to not give me a refund. In NYC it’s clearly best to use App for parking garage, not third party app like ParkWhiz.

Update on 12/7/24: After contacting ParkWhiz, I exchanged a half dozen emails with customer service to get a refund. After spending a lot of time, they finally issued a refund, but a couple days later they reversed the refund. The customer service is clueless as they first claim they couldn't find my parking even though I sent them screenshot from their App. THen they said I must not have paid with Apple Pay so I've sent them a screen shot of Apple Pay charges. Not only did I lose my money but I've wasted so much time.

I bought in advance to get a better price by paying $15 +fee and in the day of the reservation the price it was $9.99 +fee.
I am not mentioning any difference between the online and drive-up rates.
What is the advantage of using the online service in advance? None.

If I could give them 0 stars I would!
I pre booked a parking pass with them. The address provided to me was wrong. It was to a parking garage just apparently not the correct one. This left me scrambling to find parking on the street and late for my event. They offered me a refund on my account that I needed to create and will never use. They claim they cannot refund my credit card.
Do not ever book with them! They are a scam!!! Save yourself the money and headache!!!

I have a Tesla Y, which is the same size as a Kia Sportage - crossover SUV - in other words - a hatchback. I brought the Tesla because I did see that "over sized vehicles will be subject to an additional fee". I also have a Toyota Tocoma - not a huge truck, but I thought - hmm, probably over sized. They charged me extra - of course I was in a hurry to get to the flight or I would have just gone elsewhere.
While away my Tesla informed me I had a flat tire. When we told them our flight arrived I told them DO NOT MOVE THE CAR THE TIRE IS FLAT - I was going to call AAA. Well, moved and hosed off and parked out front. What the heck?!? Do you thank them for riding on the flat tire, because they gave it a shower? They get 2 stars because they did have pump and filled the tire for me. But, hmmm, maybe you could have done that before you ran on the rim.
Will not use them again -

Site was down, no connection?? How ever ever other site and app worked perfectly. Overcharged for parking that I didn't receive. FRAUD straight up rip off, reporting to bank as unauthorized charge. No customer service. DO NOT USE THEM OR STUB HUB ASSOCIATED WITH THEM

Do not use this website. Waste of money and time. Poor customer service.

Don't work with this company. You are GENUINELY better off just finding your own parking.

I used Parkwhiz recently for the first and last time.

I was buying tickets for a show and got the option to reserve a parking spot ahead of time. The show was in a city I don't know well, and I was under the impression that this would be the best parking available, given that it was connected with the ticket purchase. So I said "why not?"

First red flag after buying the parking reservation is that I got multiple emails from the company with links to download the ParkWhiz app, and all of those links were broken. Not a huge deal, but definitely a sign of a lack of anyone actually paying attention to user experience.

I was worried ahead of the show because the end time on my parking reservation seemed pretty early and had a disclaimer saying that if you didn't leave on time you could be towed or charged extra, but I figured I'd check out the parking situation when I got there and move if I felt like I had to.

On the day of the concert, I got stuck in traffic the whole way there and arrived already running late to the show. I'm searching for the elevator while pulling up directions on my phone. That's when I find out that I'm parked thirteen minutes away from the venue. I was angry and felt scammed. I didn't get the details about my parking location until after I paid for it. If I had known it was so far away, I wouldn't have bothered.

I got back in my car, spending probably less than 5 minutes total parked in that garage, and left, deciding to just drive to the venue and see where the closest parking was.

When I get to the venue, there is LITERALLY A PARKING LOT UNDERNEATH IT. I paid again to park there, and got to the show, having missed the first band. Had a great time at the show, but I 100% blame ParkWhiz for making me miss the first band, lol. If I hadn't had that waste-of time-detour, I could've at least caught a song or two.

By the time I get back to my car after the show, I realized that I was right to worry about the time.
I had to drive over an hour to get to the show, which means that once I get to the car, I would spend some time queuing up Google Maps and music for the drive before actually leaving. I didn't even GET to my car that was parked AT THE VENUE until after my original reservation would have been up. With the long walk back, and especially after reading some reviews here where people said their cars got booted, I shudder to think what would have happened if I hadn't moved parking spots.

I reached out to ParkWhiz the next day for a refund. When they got back to me, they said that after the start of the parking pass, "all bookings are non-refundable." They told me I should have downloaded the ParkWhiz app to view the actual walking distance from my location. (Please note that I DID download the app, and it didn't have any info that would have even remotely helped with that). They said to contact Ticketmaster since I paid through Ticketmaster.

I responded to say thanks for your time, that I reached out to Ticketmaster, and to politely share some feedback in hopes that they could avoid losing future customers the same way.

For some reason, they responded a WEEK LATER to reiterate that I should contact Ticketmaster…in response to the email where I told them that I had reached out to Ticketmaster. They completely ignored everything that I said. I'm not sure why they even bothered to reply at all.

Luckily, I was able to get a refund from Ticketmaster and they were very kind to me about it. It's not often that I would say something nice about Ticketmaster, but they earned it, lol. Especially in comparison to a company like ParkWhiz.

From the beginning, this was a scam. If not legally definable as a scam, it was absolutely a greedy, dishonest, and consumer-hostile business practice. I was misled to believe I was paying for the best parking available, and then not given enough time to park for the show I bought the parking pass for. From reading other reviews, and my experience with their customer service, it seems pretty clear to me that they are just trying to get a quick buck, and then a few extra bucks, by ruining other people's otherwise exciting days with extra fees and towing. The people in charge at ParkWhiz should be ashamed of themselves.

Even though I was able to get a refund, the entire thing was a waste of time I can't get back, and shouldn't have happened. If I had booked directly with ParkWhiz, I would have been out of luck on my refund. I would sincerely advise anyone against using this service. It's WORSE than useless.

Attended a concert tonight and used parkwhiz to prepay for my parking. We came out of the show to find others confused as to why they have tickets when they paid. Every car still parked seemed to have a ticket. I called the number on the parkwhiz app for help 1) Its long distence 2) it then tells you if you recieved a ticket that they dont have anything to do with the people who enforce the lot. I then found an attendent who I showed my parking pass( that the times and plate match) He told us that we had to contact the parking enforcement who placed the ticket using the number on the ticket. So I guess the "Your Parking is Validated by your plate" doesnt do anything if theres no communication so that enforcement knows who paid. So since im wasting my time emailing a ticket appeal. I felt that I should also post my exprience.

. I paid $63 for a parking space in a garage. They had THE WRONG INSTRUCTIONS FOR PARKING AND MY CAR GOT TOWED! 1AM and I'm walking with my 17 y.o. son to get the car because an UBER would've taken longer. I paid $100 to get the car out of Superio TOWING and I emailed them demanding a refund AND $100 reenbursement for the towing. THEY SUCK! DO NOT USE PARK WHIZ!!

I ordered park whiz on Groupon for SanAntonio parking today the first time was my mistake I put wrong time but then they would not refund me so I could add the right time I needed parking. So I lost 18 dollars the second time the parking I ordered it was at a hotel and because they were full they would not honor my Groupon so I lost another 12.02 I will not be using this again

I would give zero stars if possible. Booked and paid $10 for parking, get there and show the attendant the app and reservation and they say they don’t accept parkwhiz and charged me an additional $48.

We bought a parking space through ParkWhiz in Phoenix. It was for a Padres, Diamondbacks game at Chase Field. The lot which was down a dingy alley was 1 mile from the stadium. We got back in the car and drove to the stadium where we found parking across the street from the stadium for the same price we paid. It was over 105 degrees there and we could not have safely walked it. I asked for a refund but ParkWhiz refused because it was thru a third party. So much for Park Whiz guarantee.

Useless. We paid big bucks for a parking pass, arrived super early to the event, only to find the lot full with NO spots available. A total waste of $$. Went to another lot with spots available, closer to the event for less money.
