Yes they do, and there's no charge. Of course you need to to let them know arrival times, though I called them from Heathrow and it worked.
(But me being me, and Egypt being Egypt, I'm be likely to call them from Heathrow anyway just to remind them

)
I was surprised the driver was waiting for me pre-immigration, rather than at the curb, but i think he's adding value for the odd tip or two. Though now we are out of the zoo that was T1, arrivals are pretty much straight-forward, and I' not sure shepherding through the system is necessary even for beginners ...
