Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 189 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers are really happy with the user experience, finding the registration process simple and the system convenient, eliminating the need for manual payments or worrying about overstaying. Many appreciate the ease of driving in and out without needing to queue at machines or remember their registration number, with automatic charges and email updates on payments being a significant plus. However, some people were dissatisfied with the payment process, reporting issues like unexpected charges despite having annual permits or being double-charged. There were also instances of payments not being taken or difficulties in disputing fines, particularly when using rental cars. Some customers also mentioned concerns about the lack of real-time confirmation upon entering car parks and the absence of a clear list of Hozah-enabled locations.

No more queuing up

I can honestly say switching to automated vehicle registration plate makes it so easy and less stressful than queuing up to pay for your ticket,just drive in and drive out and they bill you within a week...been doing this since mid 2025..and not changing back.

Once you have registered on the site it is so easy to park. Just rock up, park and go. Cheaper than the council car parks too.

I was given a ticket for parking my car yet I wasn't supposed to be given. …

I was given a ticket for parking my car BP11KZG on the 19 of October 2025, I responded to Hozah with a parking receipt to show that I paid and I got a message that they take time to respond, that was on the 9th of January. Upto today the 20th of January I haven't received any response. You really wonder what next could be done. You can't even find any of their contact numbers. I am not happy at all.

Simple and straightforward …

I have used Hozah for many years and the process is simple. On a wet and windy day, it is a joy to be able to park and move quickly into the shelter of my local shopping centre while others have to queue outside in the rain at the pay station. My only criticism is that Hozah do not publish a list of Hozah enabled carparks.

Since I switched over to the auto pay

Since I switched over to the auto pay, it has been so much easier and more efficient than standing around in lineup to pay and wondering how much I have to pay. It’s all done automatically good job done.

Hozah is my favourite parking App

Hozah is my favourite parking App. Once you have set up your account, your car is recognised by ANPR on entering and leaving the car park, and your debit card is automatically charged a few days later. No more worrying about mobile coverage or queuing at some complicated machine. I wish all car parks were run by Hozah!

Great idea... Not dependable

This only worked once for me, and the experience of not worrying about coins or ticketing the windscreen was brilliant. However, Hozah stopped their operation of the car park and told no one. No signs, nothing.
Next thing I know is a £60.00 fine through my letterbox.
Just pay and display - at least you know you're covered

Hi Bruno,

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We’re really sorry this happened, especially after such a positive first experience.

We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to receive a charge when you weren’t aware the parking setup had changed. When a car park stops using Hozah, the new site operator is responsible for updating signage and making this clear on site. We’re sorry this wasn’t a smooth transition in your case.

We hope you’ll have the opportunity to use one of our other car parks in the future and enjoy the same convenience you experienced on your first visit.

Thank you again for sharing your feedback.

Good location with poor standards

Car park is unclean and stairs stick of urine.
Wouldn't entertain using the lift as it's like a bin in there

Hi James,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear about the condition of the car park and facilities during your visit, that’s certainly not the experience we want anyone to have.

While Hozah provides the parking technology rather than managing the day-to-day upkeep of the site, we absolutely take feedback like this seriously.

If you’re happy to do so, please reply with the location details. We’ll make sure this is raised directly with the site operator.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Hi Wendy,

Thank you for contacting us and for explaining the situation in detail.

We understand how frustrating and stressful this experience has been for you, and we appreciate that you have taken the time to reach out and provide further information.

After reviewing our records for the date and location in question, we have been unable to locate any payment associated with your vehicle registration number. Unfortunately, without a recorded payment, we are unable to issue or retrieve a receipt.

Kind Regards,
Hozah Support Team
