Motorists say huge queues to get out of the car parks - and barriers not working - mean they can't get out within 10 minutes
Manchester Airport is under fire as motorists label its drop-off payment system as unfair and a 'rip-off'.
He has since lodged complaints with both his MP and the airport. In response, Manchester Airport apologised for the inconvenience, acknowledging a barrier failure and assuring affected individuals they are entitled to refunds. "I asked them why at the barrier and they said 'because we are busy'. It only took me a minute to drop off my friends but longer than 10 minutes to get out. It's just not fair."
"One barrier out of four wasn't working and by the time I reached the barrier, I had been in the queue for over 10 minutes, so the charge was £25. There must have been 50 cars in the queue, most of them taxis. "MAG must be making millions from such charges annually and it needs to stop. I am sure you will have received complaints about this issue previously and I would be very grateful for any lobbying possible to raise this issue."
