Dec 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

The lady at Newcastle was extremely helpful and very friendly. Although the Lexus was smaller than I expected, the vehicle itself was comfortable, extremely clean and made my journey very pleasant. The drop off was very straight forward, although there wasn't any staff when I dropped the vehicle off in Aberdeen, and left the keys at the drop off letter box. Overall, I'd recommend Enterprise for hiring a vehicle in the future.

Cons:

The vehicle category I had rented was the full size SUV, which states a Volvo XC60 or similar. The Lexus is much smaller than an XC60 and not a full size SUV. I think the vehicle categories should be described much more clearer.

Oct 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The car was OK and met my expectations

Cons:

I agreed a hire cost with Kayak from the USA. When I picked-up the car I was told I had to pay an extra £21. When I argued that I had a contract they somewhat reluctantly said that an adjustment would be made when I returned the car. But when I returned the car the office was closed because of flooding problem according to the notice on the door! When I called the number I was told to just put the keys through the letterbox! Now I am very uncomfortable that the contract has been concluded in an appropriate and professional manner.

Excellent service from start to finish. Absolutely loved the car (Peugeot 3008) it was a dream to drive, super clean and even made us want to buy one! Really reasonable price for a 3 day hire, so much so, we added an extra day! Super easy collection and drop off. Highly recommended and would definitely use Budget again.

Due to flight changes and then delays and lost baggage we were. 4hrs 53 minutes late on our pickup. Green motion had cancelled our pre paid booking and charged a $432 up charge to give us a car. Will never do business with them again ever. Be ultra careful these people will use fine print to cheat you at the first chance.

I made a reservation one month before my trip. On the day of my reservation I showed up to pick up my car and the two gentlemen working informed me that they did not have a car for me to use. Zero effort was made to provide an explanation or a solution. Over and over again they simply said they did not have enough cars and there was nothing they could do. So I had to make a different reservation with another company last minute. In the end I never got a car from Hertz. And they did not provide me with a refund. Will never book with hertz again.

Pros:

Great service, very accommodating. Easirent was the best experience I've had renting a car. Their overall reviews seem lackluster, so I don't know if it was the location I was at (Newcastle) or if they've stepped their game up. I would definitely use Easirent again, and would definitely recommend them.

Cons:

My old qualm is that automatic costs a lot more than manual. I can drive manual, but my buddy couldn't. I was designated driver, which is a bit tiring when you're driving long distances.
