Vehicles were damaged after being left with sham 'meet and greet' service

A man scammed hundreds of motorists with a sham "meet and greet" airport car service that left many vehicles damaged.

The three parking firms Isaq was involved with, operated one after another as each was dissolved, were Manchester Airport Parking Ltd, Manchester Airport Parking Services and Manchester Meet and Greet Ltd – all offering services on websites. One car which should have been safely parked up, suffered “substantial damage” after being involved in a collision with a bus, captured on a camera inside the bus. Mr Pearson added: "Customers were paying for a service they did not receive and would never have agreed to if they knew the truth."

Judge John Potter said Isaq had been the "main instigator" involved in the "exploitation of consumers by the adoption of unscrupulous business practices", adding customers had endured "a litany of incompetence, lack of planning and wilful neglect". Isaq’s son, Sultan Khan, 28, and daughter, Amani, 27, who acted as directors for one of the firms, pleaded guilty to breaking consumer protection laws by negligence. Both had agreed to become company directors while young and unaware of the responsibilities involved, the court heard.
