    If you join Virgin frequent flyer's club and then book your parking through them you get a big discount at purple parking. Thats who i always book my parking through. You can also go through topcashback for cashback too. HTH.

    We've used Purple Parking several times at Heathrow - the Meet & Greet option - never had a problem/issue with them. There is RAC membership discount which is usually 20 - 25% off which is why we use the valet service since it works out cheaper than the 'normal' DIY shuttle bus route - great if you have young children like we do.

    How far away do you live? I am on the other side of London and it made better sense to catch a cab - door to door transport with no hassles.

    I've literally just booked parking at heathrow airport with purple parking direct

    I used the code: frien

    For £10 off =)
  • Just done a quick look on using the rac code and it is more expensive than using the virgin frequent flyer's code (about £10 more!) So i would def recommend doing it the virgin way. There is also an article/forum on here about cheapest airport parking, thats where i got the idea from in the first place!
  • Thanks!! Just got it down to £52.....now that's a saving!!
