You then passed the booking onto another company Easirent. None of this was made evident until after I had paid. I tried to call you 10 times to confirm and/or cancel but you dont answer the phone.

" The worst hire car experience ever. I booked through skyscanner where I filtered for hire cars only located at LHR. It turns out AutoEurope/Easirent are no where near LHR. By the time you answered your phone and told us where to hop on your bus and it stopped at 10 other places it had taken 2 hours to get from the terminal to the hire car location! Followed by another 45 minutes for the desk person to find and do the paperwork. A staggering 3 hours terminal to driving away. The car clearly had unmarked damage on it so thank god I spotted that and told them before we left to avoid that nightmare. Then when we dropped it off the bus back to the airport was nowhere to be seen thus we had to pay for a taxi to get back to the terminal. I expressed my disappointment to the lady behind the desk who acknowledged it was a known problem but some guy wearing a tracksuit aggressively came up to us and said "we are cheaper, every hire car company is the same" at that point we felt unsafe and I even felt unsafe for the girl behind the desk as this guy stood over her.

" Always a pleasue to do business through, have my doubts about recommending Easirent on your site, "
" We arrived in Manchester on 4th December, after a horrendous flight, when we had to abort our first landing. we were conscious of a medical appointment which we couldn't be late for. We rang the office of Eazirent and they said they would meet us in 15- 20 minutes at bus stop D. When we go there, there were 3 other ladies waiting for the bus, they had been waiting for over 20 minutes. We had a final stop, for another 2 people the bus now full (so I think the office was waiting for this to save money and petrol) which is fine. We arrived at the depot, and were driven into the storage place (because it was raining) as the place was filthy, so disorganised, not a good start to our first impressions. We were then walked through a storage place for car seats (equally as filthy and disorganised) There was a customer trying to get his return flight, eventually the 'customer service' person started speaking to us. He took our passports and details, and then asked if we could stand further away as the first customers details was there. For one, we wouldn't be able to see without our glasses on and the customer service operative had out details in his hand for all to see....... He didn't however, ask the first customer to move away from our details We eventually got sorted, all the customer service person wanted, was to up sell the insurance etc. He then asked us to stand back and started to deal with the other ladies, who had a long discussion, about insurance, who was going to drive the car. We were conscious about getting to our appointment, and asked how long he would be, to be told to take a seat and he would be there shortly. By this time, we were getting very frustrated as they were still discussing what to do, He was just standing back waiting for them to decide. He could have met us in the filthy depot to get the car sorted and the ladies would have by then decided. Eventually he did just that and asked us to meet him in the depot. We only knew the entrance we came through, and couldn't get back in, Until someone walked out from the toilet and we asked him to let us through He had to go through the office to let us in. When we got into the depot. we said we couldn't get through and he said we should have walked round (we didn't know how to get there and it was pouring with rain, which we told him. He then started saying how abusive we were and that he wouldn't take this. We said we werent listening, and get the car sorted and we would be on our way. By now probably (and we were late for the appointment) We took the car, with only 3/4 a tank of fuel, a windscreen wipe that scraped the whole time we hired it and went on our way (Obviously no pre hire inspection) When we got back to drop the car off, we got a lift back to the airport, where he then started to lecture us on how we would never be allowed to hire of them again. We totally understand that this is a pressurized job, as we are sure there is commission involved in the upselling as they get very upset when anyone says no to this service, but surely, Customer service should be King. If he had dealt with one customer at a time, then we would all have left happy. No one was wearing face masks apart from the customers. Very sad to say, but we are coming back to the UK often next year, and sadly wont be dealing with this Company again. "

" This was the worst hire car experience I have ever had. Don't ever book a hire car through Auto Europe, no matter how tempting it is to save a few pounds. Their website is not accurate and they cannot be relied upon to manage your booking once they have taken your money. Over the past 25 years I hire cars quite regularly, and due to past bad experiences, I have one golden rule: always select a car that is located at the airport, and not somewhere close by to the airport that you have to rely on a shuttle bus to get to. Easirent is a typical example of a hire car company that is not usually located at the airport, but on Auto Europe's on-line booking website it states very clearly that the Easirent hire car is "AT AIRPORT". This is an outright lie. Based solely on this fact, and on Auto Europe's advice that this was a good deal, I selected the Easirent car hire option. If the true facts had been stated – that the car was not at the airport – I would have selected a different car, even if it meant paying more money. At the point of booking online with Auto Europe, I gave them all my details, including my mobile telephone number and full flight details. Auto Europe failed to pass any of this vital information on to Easirent. This led to a catastrophic hire car experience, which has literally left me scared for life. My flight was delayed by 2 hours. When I landed at Liverpool airport, my hire car was not at the airport as promised by Auto Europe. Auto Europe stated on my booking confirmation that the office of the hire car company, Easirent, was open from 6am to Midnight. Another outright lie. My plane arrived at 19h30. My hire car was not at the airport as stated. The Easirent office, off-site, was not open as stated and Easirent did not even answer the telephone. I was left stranded, a lone female traveller, with no hire car and no alternative means of transport. As I was trying to track down the Easirent office, which Google maps stated was a 24 minutes' walk from the airport, I tripped on an uneven pavement and fell flat on my face. I was taken to the hospital with severe abrasions to my face and broken front teeth. I am still recovering from these terrible injuries. The following day when I contacted both Auto Europe and Easirent, there was not a shred of sympathy or apology or any attempt to put right the situation in terms of getting a car to me. Each blamed the other and said that I was a "no show" and they could not do anything until the full 5-day rental time of the booking had finished. They also played the 'blame Covid card' which made my blood boil. No way can any of this be blamed on Covid. It has taken me 4 weeks to get a response from Auto Europe and it will be another 15 days before they pay me my money back. If any good advice could come out of this awful experience, it would to recommend that you always book directly with the hire car companies, and never through an agency – especially not Auto Europe – and that you never select Easirent for your hire cars.

" I've always had a great experience with Auto Europe. The best rates, the best insurance coverage, and good quality vehicles. I pretty much exclusively book cars with Auto Europe. This time however I ran into more troubles than usual. Easirent was the only available rental company to rent a minivan, that would rent to someone under the age of 30. We tried different dates as well. There were a few companies that had a minimum age of 30 (which I have never heard of in Europe or the UK), and then a few companies that offered much larger minibusses. But the only available minivans were through Easirent so we took a chance with them and we thoroughly regretted it. "
" I have already spoken with AutoEurope about this but the car was pretty dirty, there were things broken in it like the air conditioning and the rear door. The process to get the car took a long time, much longer than usual, even after having checked in online in advance which supposedly speeds up the process. Now we think we have left something and we cannot get in touch with the company whatsoever. All of the phone numbers just continue to ring and nobody responds to the online queries. "

I missed my flight which was at 8.32am. There was no flight until the next day. You owe me money for the flight. I know companies like you are greedy and won't pay the full $788 but you owe me partial refund for the ticket I've had to rebook. Also on the day of pick up 19th March I waited over an hour to be picked up by the shuttle guy from BHX to collect the car so you also need to give me a partial refund for your late pick up and i have returned the car with £5 extra fuel. Also it states clearly in the terms and conditions that the deposit to be held is £2500 but the guy who I dealt with on the day of collection took £2600 without my consent and did not provide a reason and this is against the law and the trading standards. Actually it's classed as fraud to take extra money from someone's account and not telling the person. I was told on email confirmation I would receive the "Toyota Aygo (Manual)" but was given a small red Kia. So your whole booking was a lie and did not meet my requirements. I want my money. "

" Apart from the allocated car, great experience. "
" I have marked them highly for the questions asked as they could not have done more. However, I selected a car from the estate/SUV category where Skoda Octavia Estate/Volkswagen Passat Estate or similar were the illustrative cars. We were assigned a Peugeot 2008 which I think you will agree is not comparable. We wouldn't have been able to fit our luggage in. Thankfully the desk staff were able to sort out a 7-seater with enough room. Whilst I cannot fault the service, I feel that the original allocation was entirely inadequate. "

Their speed of dealing with problem and task is very fast and always come out with great solution. Highly recommended third party car rental company. "
" Some of the staff are great but some of them are definitely not. The hidden administration fees are ridiculously high, which is GBP 55 for normal administration fee and GBP 75 for damage administration fee after returning the car (they charged on my credit card without noticing me and without my authorisation after a few days I return the car). They have different standard of pre- and post- car checking and tried to hide some scratches (especially the wheel) at the beginning but claim as my fault of scratching the wheel when I return the car (The scratches is obviously an old scratch, but I don't have a proof because I trust them and didn't take a photo for every part of the car when I pick up the car, and they were not willing to provide me with previous record of car checking when I asked to do so).

" After a 1:45 hr delay we arrived at Manchester airport as we had no luggage to collect we left the arrivals quickly. We rang Easirent and were asked to go to bus stop 4 and a coach would pick us up within 10 mins. After several phone calls we were picked up 1 hr later. on arrival at the office we were told that as we were over 4 hrs late the car that we had booked was gone I pointed out that we were only less that 3 hrs late and that 1 hr of that was waiting to be picked up so really only 2hrs late. we were told that all we could do was to take a higher class of car at extra cost. after much discussion with the manager we agreed to take an unnecessarily larger car for £110. we had already paid £69 for the original car meaning an extra £41 when the manager tried to take the payment from my card i noticed that he was taking the full £110 I pointed out that we had already paid £69 and that we should only pay the difference. The manager seemed flustered at this and after about 1 minute he said that it was £110 extra. after more discussion he said that i could take his own car for the total price of £110. we took the car as we really had no choice. the car was obviously not prepared for rental as it was dirty and low on fuel. the manager advised me not to use Autoeurope in future and suggested that i should use Holiday auto as they had less restrictive polices. We feel that we were treated very poorly and that their objective all along was to up sell the car to take as much money as possible from the customer. This is the second time that we had a poor experience with Easirent but we thought that the first time was just an unlucky experience. I am sorry to go on and on about this but I do feel that we were very badly treated. "

" Low score as the additional cost is not clear enough. We're fairly clever people and I missed it, others have too from what I've been told since so the FULL cost needs to be clear and accessible not hidden away in the small print. "
" We thought we paid online for the car but then was told it would be a minimum of £160 extra as insurance or leave £1500 credit card deposit. I questionned where this was told to us and fair do, the lad read it out form the paperwork, BUT this was NOT clear or obvious at all and once we had left the pace i struggled to find the information again on the paperwork. Other rental firms have a lower deposit required, £1500 is very steep and completely useless for those of us who do not own credit cards for our own choices. Check in was confusing, there's machine out front but honestly they scanners were rubbish and there was no help with them except other customers. The only thing I would say is drop off was fairly simple - they pointed out the nearest petrol station but it's a pain to get to if you're coming from edinburgh the one we passed on the motorway would have been easier. But they were fine and quick when we dropped the car off so no complaints there. "

" Although booked online had to stand outside Porto cabin while waiting to be attended to car was dirty outside although easirent swore it had been. Car itself was good. On drop off easirent employee shouted instructions from Porto cabin and together with another custermer boarded my hire vehicleand proceeded to drive to airport questioning me on whether I had topped fuel to full, when I explained that on receipt of vehicle the tank was only 3/4 full, and that it was if he cared to look nearly full. He also dropped us at bus stop near airport and told us to catch bus to terminal which would be free, the bus was not in fact free and we had to pay 1 pound each not what expected, ony previous occasion with a variety of car hire we have been dropped off in quick drop off which is close to terminal.

" Need to check the condition of the vehicle very closely. I was told that the vehicle was checked over by the company and upon looking myself noticed a large scratch(es) on the rear RH corner of the vehicle which couldn't have been missed. I feel that the company tries to make additional money by making its customers pay over for the same damage. Upon return I was told that there was a chip in the windscreen; I know 100% that it didn't occur during my rental period. Plus since it was dark how could I have noticed it when I picked the vehicle up (it was probably less than 0.5mm in size). I am not happy that I was having to 'fight' my innocence just before trying to catch my flight (perhaps that is another ploy as people don't want to miss their flight?). "

" The card was great - got a free upgrade. But the service was poor. After flying around the world the last thing I wanted was to wait over an hour for the counter staff to deal with the queue and get the card ready.

" I returned my car yesterday & I had a complaint. The person who I returned the car too said his manager would ring me about my complaint. As I expected NO-ONE CALLED. My car was returned 1 day early but I received no refund. The person was too busy trying to usher me onto the bus (Because others were waiting) which incidentally I ended sat on in the freezing cold for a minimum of 30 minutes because no-one could open the gate which had locked itself. I had complaints regarding the car Reg A018JZK The key fob was low on battery. The exhaust was blowing. There was no log book or details should I need to know air pressure & other safety necessities for driving. I think it is the law to check these things before you rent out a car. The SATNAV wasn't up to date & proved useless, making many mistakes. The final mistake by the SATNAV was to take me into Manchester Airport drop off thus costing me a 3.00 charge for nothing! However, the main complaint which made using the car intolerable other than short distances was the smell inside the car. When I picked the car up I noticed it but thought it had maybe been stood & the smell would clear. It did not & on occasions made anyone travelling the car 'GIP' the smell was so bad. It was the smell of 'SHIT'. Yes you are reading this correctly! I checked the car to see if I could find the source but I couldn't. As I was staying in York for the holidays it was too far to bring the car to complain. I had no mobile either. I was only in the UK a few weeks for the Christmas break & I did not want to waste time & fuel travelling back to Manchester. When I returned the car I made the guy I returned the car to sit in the car & tell me what he thought without me informing him of the complaint. He immediately said it smelled of 'SHIT'. So we both agreed the smell was a smell of 'SHIT' & it was terrible. He said 'good god' I don't know how you have driven it. Unfortunately I did not get an email address so I'm using what I have at the top of the agreement. I also was stuck at the car rental office & almost missed my flight because the main gate couldn't be opened & we sat in the cold waiting for at least 30 minutes. I had no time to use the DUTY-FREE & it was very stressful having to run through the airport. No time for a cup of tea or use the bathroom. To put this into context I had been on the road since 3am!!! Please use the email address given at the top to reply, it will be quicker. I await your response to these complaints. This car has been the worst car I have ever rented & I rent cars at Manchester Airport at least 3 times a year for the past 8 years. So I do have plenty of experience. "

" As above - I feel I was ripped off by Easirent. I'm not sure how closely you monitor the behaviour of the companies you work with or what level of responsibility you take for their practices however I would strongly advise you investigate the above practice as it will very quickly give you a bad name by association. "
" Felt conned to be quite honest. Having paid online at point of booking and also added the extra insurance cover of £30, when I arrived to collect the car I was told I had failed a credit check (I have good credit and can provide evidence of this). The counter staff then refused to give me the car (which is pre-paid for) unless I took out full insurance which doubled the cost of hire. I was told I could not cancel and get a refund on what I had paid already, and the staff member said he could not give written confirmation that the reason for having to take full insurance was a failed credit check. It seemed that I was being coerced into taking extra insurance, especially upsetting as I'd already paid Auto Europe £30 for upgraded insurance. I was left with no choice but to take the full insurance as the alternative was pay for a car I couldn't take and then go elsewhere and pay again at last minute prices. If I were a Auto Europe I would think strongly about working with Easirent as this kind of coercion will affect your brand. I will be sending a formal request for a refund of at the very least, the £30 I paid to Autoeurope for an upgraded insurance policy which in the end was useless as overridden by the insurance Easirent forced me to take.

Just 2 males behind a desk saying "we have no cars" and caring less about anything. (I was not the only one standing there stranded).

All I want to say is that your continued association with such a doggy filthy company you will regret ruining your worldwide reputation. The staff have never heard of the worse professional, their offices are dirty and shabby, their toilet is extremely filthy, does not lock, no toilet tissue, so embarassing, I had to wait for 90 minutes for the shattle bus to collect me, and in the end, when it came to collecting the car, I was asked for more payments and to leave a deposit of 1500 pounds which I had not been informed about. I eventully gave up on the car and had to hire Uber taxi instead, yet to date I am still trying to get my bank to claim back monies that continue to be stolen weekly by your affiliate company but now disguised as thrifty car rental which I have never used. My mistake was to give them my credit card which they must have copied before I cancelled the car. I never ever want to use this company ever again. "

I decided to add on a few extra days for my convenience, and during that period the brakes siezed.

" I have already shared it above. I did hire a car for second week again with Easirent as already previously booked, the car I was given was a badly damaged tiny Toyata Aygo which I had to go back following day to get changed as nearside mirror was totally cracked and made driving dangerous without clear visibility of left! Replacement given is another Toyota Aygo after Easirent agent tried hard to sell me an upgrade. "
" It took almost hour and half to go through the process of pickup as the Easirent agent wanted 2xproof of UK address (utility bills) and the electronic copies I had was not suitable as he could not scan them and he said their printer was not working since long time!! Then when I questioned why it was necessary for UK address verification when I have a Swiss driving licence and Swiss address, I think he realised the mistake and paperwork was then done in few minutes! But, at no point there was an apology or explanation given. He did however give an upgrade of the car which was good. However, all this caused lot of stress to my wife and myself as we had to rush to hospital to see my mother who was about to go in for a major operation and all this delay did not help. "

" Terrible terrible service! I've had to cancel my credit card as Easirent attempt unauthorised payments, I should actually report them to the police. "
" Firstly the rental was quoted at £47, on arrival to the Glasgow office all hidden charges were revealed, another £154 was required. Once I'd payed with my card (The card reader read 'Authorised'), Gary the manager called once I'd left and said the transaction hadn't gone through, he continuously called me on separate numbers until I got annoyed and blocked his calls. I needed to drop the vehicle in Aberdeen, after leaving the vehicle Easirent attempted to take another £354 from my credit card, for what reason, I do not know. Utterly disgusting service which amounts to common theft. "

" Undecided at this stage "
" Credit card hadn't come through in my name so asked to change to my partner as the main driver and me as named second driver and that we would pay the extra. Was told this could not be done. Was offered only to take the rental on my debit card and pay the full insurance add on which was £241 on top of the £157 rental taken out. We have our own excess policy. We said then we would cancel the rental and pay the late cancellation fee, my partner was online and could see that she could take a new rental in her name at the original price. We were then told that if we did this we couldn't take a car for at least two hours even though their website said it was available now. When we finally relented because the guy wouldn't budge and so payed the additional £241 simply because I had to be at a meeting 2 hours drive away in 2 1/2 hrs time. We then were shown the car which was supposed to be full of fuel, the needle was pointing one notch below full which I pointed out and received an explanation that it was peculiar to this vehicle that when full this was as high as the needle went. This turned out to be a blatant lie because both subsequent times that I filled the car, the needle pointed to full. So not only we we screwed with the add on full cover, we were also lie to and conned over a further £5/6 worth of petrol. (I have timed and dated photos of the fuel gauge to prove this. To whom do I complain and seek compensation for this breach of contract on easirent's part? "

Whilst for my rental you stated that the mileage was unlimited, Easirent confirmed that they never rent with an unlimited mileage when you have a 2 days rental. So, they charged £7,5 a day (£15 for the two days rental) for having unlimited mileage. They clearly stated that it is AUTOEUROPE mistake to advertise unlimited mileage in two days rental. Hope it help so you do not advertise wrong information in your web. Thanks a lot, "

The counter staff were very unapologetic, offered no alternative other than to wait 2hours when another return vehicle may turn up, no guarantees. They did not offer any kind of assistance and basically made it my problem to sort out. I will never use easirent or recommend them. In fact I would recommend autoeurope take them off there database of available rentals. Discusting service. On the plus side when I contacted autoeurope directly you arranged alternative rental vehicle which took a bit of time but was excellent service with a vehicle rented at no extra cost from avis, so thankyou "

" Based on my recent experience I wouldn't hire from the Heathrow Easirent Office again any time soon. I've had good experiences at other locations though and will continue to consider the company in the future, just not Heathrow. "
" We queued for a long time at the Heathrow office, probably at least an hour. 4 out of 6 of the express check in machines were broken and despite attempts by several people in the queue no one was able to complete the check in on the two remaining working machines. Of the few who who made it to the final screen none were able to complete their check in because there was no option to proceed without additional insurance. The member of staff we finally dealt with was efficient and polite it's just a shame it took so long for him to arrive. The car we collected had hadn't been washed and, with around 35,000 miles on the clock, the gears were difficult to find. Drop off at the hotel near Gatwick was hard to find but the lady behind the counter was very helpful. "

" It would be nice to know who you are actually renting with at the time of booking. "
" Not a great experience. We arrived on time for our pick-up and ended up waiting for over an hour after we checked in, as staff overlooked our booking due to the person before us having the same name. The car was very dirty on the outside (looked like it hadn't been washed in some time) and there was a used tissue and a smell of hamburger on the inside. There was a lot of confusion about the odometer reading - this was counting down, not up, and we really had no idea how much milage we had used as the numbers didn't tally up with what was written on the form we received. The form also stated our original pick-up and drop-off time, despite us not being able to leave with our car for over an hour after we should have. If I hadn't gone out to check, our car would have been given to someone else, who was about to get in with the keys and drive away. Drop-off was better, the girl at the counter was helpful and put us in touch with Liam at head office, who was very helpful and able to arrange an extra half-day rental at a discounted rate. Overall, the feel of the experience was a company that really doesn't care about the customer experience or the state of their premises or vehicles. I wouldn't be sending people in the direction of Easyrent in future as it all just feels a bit sketchy. "

A baby seat that I wanted to add wasn't priced until after I paid for my reservation and it was ridiculously priced which wasnt shown on the app. "
" When picking up the car I was told that I had to pay them an extra £300 directly for their insurance or they would have to block £1,500 off of my credit card, which would have left me with no spending money for my holiday. I told them that I had already paid extra for the insurance which they told me wasn't enough and wouldnt cover me for any accidents. They also wanted to charge £90 in advance for a tank of fuel which costs about £42. I also didnt get the car model that I requested. Prices for any extras are ridiculous and I was pressured into spending more and more money even though I had already paid for my reservation. "

" I have been using Auto Europe for years and always been very happy with the service / price and support. On the law of averages there is bound to be a disaster once in a while .... and fortunately because your price was so good I have not lost too much money. (Although the Alamo rental was triple the price due to lack of cars and I made the booking for an economy car only 5 minutes before arriving - in fact they only had a much higher grade cars available). I was just glad to get a car regardless and needed to get on my way. So in summary the majority of the blame for what happened lies with myself. In my rush to travel I should have taken time out to review my arrangements before boarding the plane to Liverpool. With hindsight I am being a bit harsh with my criticism of Easirent - I should have worked harder contacting them and AE and double checked the office location. Sorry to go on ... fortunately my wife is okay and will recover quickly. If you review my bookings you will see the Alamo one made a few minutes before pick up - and of course they only had premium cars so I paid double at their office. Thanks for letting me express my feelings. All is well now! Cheers "
" Very disappointing. No flexibility or assistance from Easirent. Due to a family emergency - a car accident involving my wife - I arrived 24 hours early to go to hospital where my wife was detained. I was stressed out unfortunatelyand not thinking clearly. I was unable to get through on the phone to Easirent and made my way to Easirent office which frustratingly had been relocated. Easyrent could not change my booking or offer me a car. I was advised to cancel my auto europe booking but by then it was 23 hours before original planned booking. Then Easirent offered me a car (10 times more expensive than the original booking or simply wait 24 hours for the original booking to be honoured ). The AE website told me to contact AE direct by phone but I couldn't get through to you Fortunately I then made a fresh booking with AE website and got a car from Alamo. "

" Not helpful and polite customer service. You can't speak to a seniors manager or make a compliant. Made a big mistake to book throw them( auto Europe ) who just toke my money and was not able to provide me with a car a paid for for accept to just refund me or even listen to file a compliant !! Very disappointed. It should be clear to customers what they need to have in order to receive the product they are paying for on the same page without having to search on it among the small lines of terms and condition. Before proceeding to check out; you should make sure the customer able to collect what he/she paid for. I.e driving licence, payslips, utility bill, credit card under driver name ...etc. I'm very disappointed from auto Europe which It feels as if they just scamp people to book throw them then find out that the customers not eligible to collect what they paid for and can't get refund.! "
" Should have cheaper offers direct not throw brokers who take advantage of customers. Easy rent should make sure the broker is able to provide customers with good customer service and give them refund if supplier / provider like easirent don't have cars available or can't accept customers documents or card ..etc "

They even wanted to keep us at their depot, AFTER I called the previous day to ensure their one and only shuttle was available as we had to catch a train....I 'made them see the error of their ways'. If we would not have lost our deposit, we would have walked out and gone back to the airport to any other company. There were 3 of us and none will EVER hire with them again, regardless of them being cheaper....they are indeed a cheap outfit with rigid, ridiculous rules and regulations and a total lack of customer service....those 2 words do not go together in their organisation.

Almost an hour of waiting after arriving at the centre to pick the car, despite having done so much of the process online, is rather annoying. 3. On phone, the auto europe customer service agent had outdated information about prices, and he also gave incorrect information about miles allowed - he said 1500 miles per rental period, while on arrival at Easy rent they said maximum 100 miles per day, and they charged more for extra miles.

" As above - very poor - all it takes is clearer communications - tell the customer what they can expect - clearly in your email. Also given that easirent couldnt facilitate me with the use of another credit card over the phone - led me to spending an additional 160 pounds I had not budgeted for. I will certainly be sharing my experience with the many people I know who travel and rent. "
" The email received from reservations@auto-europe.co.uk advised in the body of the email to bring driving licences, passport voucher and credit card, which I brought with me. At this point I was not aware that the I would be required to pay 1500 which would be returned within 28 days if the car wasnt damaged. In the interest of transparency and customer service i believe it would be beneficial to customers to know this from your email rather than learn it from the very fine print on the voucher. I was not able to provide such a large payment on my credit card and asked could my husband pay on my behalf over the phone on his card. This was not acceptable! as a result I paid circa another 160 ukpounds extra as insurance - despite having my annual insurance policy for rental cars. Also we were waiting over 50 minutes for pick up at the airport - despite having phoned 3 times. Believe it or not - my brother did not have a good customer experience with easi-rent the following day when he flew to Glasgow!! So two members from the one family impacted on two different pick up points/airports - it doesnt bode well! also there were two other customers in front of me that also had issues with charges etc. So between late pick up and the experience with the rental agreement - I will not be recommending Easirent. Auto Europe came recommended to me so I was quite astonished at the overall experience. "

" Booking the car was great, Auto Europe is fantastic, however I'm deeply concerned at how quickly an agent (Easirent) will distance themselves from you to go rogue and aggressively extract more money from customers in a difficult situation. "
" This was a horrible experience - the worst I've had. We arrived at Stanstead around 60min after the time we'd booked the car in the morning (this was Christmas Eve - we were delayed with trains), only to be told on the phone (informing them of our delay at the earliest possible time and requesting their shuttle) they no longer had the car. This was distressing, absurd and downright wrong because 1) I had paid for the car IN FULL online 2) the car reservation was GUARANTEED 3) they were unwilling to provide any level of customer care, which reflected negatively on Auto Europe as they distanced themselves from you immediately. Despite this, we arrived at their office only to be told the same story again and that they had no other vehicles apart from a Jaguar, which would require the initial rental price I had already paid in full (previously online) again, ultimately DOUBLING THE COST. I was still in disbelief they didn't have the car I'd already paid for, despite it only being a very short time later. It felt like deliberate extortion as: - there was no attempt by Easirent to contact me (they had my details) to see if I was still coming. The branch was not overly busy when we arrived with several staff in the office and one other customer. - I contacted Easirent as soon as I was able at Stanstead to inform them of our delay, prior to exceeding the 60min reservation window - The only other car they had available happened to be a premium rental - Given the time of year, we could not find another rental option at such short notice, which they exploited Under Auto Europe's terms and conditions, I note the general 30 - 60 minute window for delays (section 6). I do not deny we were late and pushing this boundary, however I do believe I made all reasonable attempts to manage this disruption as soon as possible with Easirent. Given this, it would be fair to assume any reasonable person would expect the situation to be salvageable as it had not placed any discernible hardship on Easirent, nor would it impact the branch's business performance as the vehicle was paid for in full and the delay was within defined tolerances (as per your T+Cs). The outcome was negative in every possible way. This is a far cry from the great experience I've had previously with Auto Europe, I'm nervous to rent again through your service and have been actively informing friends and colleagues to go directly through a reputable rental company to avoid this experience.

" Refer to 3. "
" First I want to say that this was the WORST experience I ever experienced from a service provider in the travel business. I am surprised that you associate yourself with easirent. After waiting for 10 mins at the pickup point we were told by the man behind the counter we are 30mins late and he gave our car to another client. ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE! He offered me a 7 seater at a much higher rate. Needless to say I smelled a rat and walked out. I then had to go to the airport and hired a car for there. After reading all the negative reviews on the internet about easirent I can only thank God we didn't do any business with easirent. I think you will understand that I will never use autoeurope because of this experience. "

" Booking through Auto Europe was easy enough but it wasn't clear on the paperwork which company we would be renting with.

When we arrived we had additional fees to pay (£120 on an £80 rental) because the named driver did not have an additional £1500 free on their credit card and the company refuses to use any other card. The credit card which was tried initially to check whether there was a limit had £95 blocked off from it in any event without any explanation. After renting the car, the initial car would not lock and had to be replaced midway through the initial journey.

" Our daughter dropped us off to pick up the car, Sunday lunchtime 23rd December. all was fine until i produced my Spanish EU driving licence when they insisted they had to have a printed out copy of our return plane ticket. I showed them the proof of ticket on my smart phone. Not good enough. where was i to get a copy? They couldn't say. No they could not accept me sending an email with the ticket for them to print out. They were not allowed to do this. Could I then cancel the car hire? Not without incurring a cost. We had to call my daughter to come back for us. We then set out to look for somewhere to get an email printed out! Luckily a nearby Hotel receptionist obliged willingly . How comforting to discover good will does exist. But NOT at Easirent. On return they took the paper copy, but their machine rejected my UK credit card! I had used it several times since arriving in UK. Luckily the machine accepted my Spanish credit card. Eventually we left with the car. Later I phoned Nat West, they had refused the payment because Easirent transaction asked for £15,000 deposit not £1,500 ! Day before drop off i rang Easirent to ask if there was a shuttle from the rental to nearby Liverpool airport. Yes was the reply. In fact they just get a driver to take the client in the car they hired and the client pays the drop off fee. That was fine, but why not be honest and explain the drop off procedure when I rang? "

The next day when I took the photos I immediately noticed that the front nearside tyre had a cut in it which would have certainly failed an mot. I did however use the car, trouble free, for the duration. On Friday I checked my account and found that I had been charged £225 for the tyre damage........most definitely not caused by me.

You provided the wrong pick up address for the rental agency, requiring me to pay for a £10 Taxi to the correct pick up location. 3. You did not share the basic conditions until after the rental was confirmed and paid for. As such, I was not aware until too late that I needed a credit card in my name.

" I paid on internet with my joint account credit card we have 2 in my husband name and 1 in mine they are from the same account. I walked out the house with 2 cards in my husband name thinking I had one in my name and one in my husband name. But thought when I walked in easirent office no problem the same account but think again no a big problem. In the end it cost us over another hundred pounds to rent the car but he did want to charge us over 400pounds at first. I had to sign a form to say they can pass my information on if I got any fines to a third party. So why can u not sign a form if u use a joint account card or another person name that he would be liable for any costs . It is just a money making exercise. "

" Awful. It is a scam. "
" It will be the last time I use your services. The place to take the car is far away from the airport, it is not really user-friendly with 2 kids, luggages and boosters. When we arrived to the easyrent office, they obliged us to pay extra fees (SUPER POM COVER 5-1 - £ 41.00 per day 205.00) that you never told before that. Moreover, I paid for a full insurance when I booked the car. Explainations were very confused. They told us that it is impossible to credit my debitcard for insurance, but it was possible for fuel. The car we booked wasn't there. The tank wasn't filled, and they asked me to take a picture of the car display to fill at the same level at the end of the rent period. I denied and they have taken half an hour to fill the tank. So we have lost time and money. The price increased more than 3x the price asked on the website. "

" It was my first time using easirent and I would definitely use again. Great staff, car was in good condition and drove well. On arrival Alan was very welcoming and helpful and even gave us some lovely tips for our first trip to Scotland and which beers to look out for. Would give a 10/10 other than we had to wait for a while to get shuttle transport to the car hire and it was quite busy when we got there, so it took much longer than expected and we were late for a meal with friends (though a Glaswegian kebab did the trick in the end!) Drop off was quick and straight forward and had speedy shuttle to airport. "

" To say returning to England to spend Christmas with our family was meant to be a happy occasion this was nearly totally spoilt by our experience with Easirent and Auto Europe. At present we feel the treatment has been totally unfair towards us, all of the above happended without us being able to change a thing costing us valuable time and lots of money - The office closed early with no warning - They said Auto Europe didnt pass on flight details - They allocated our car to someone else even though we called at 6:00am as soon as the office opened - The only solution that Easirent offered was a £500 upgrade and blamed everything on Auto Europe "
" Due to a delay with our flight we landed into Stansted airport at 12:10am, we rang Easirent as soon as possible at 12:15am but they decided to close early that day (the voucher and booking confirmation said they would be open until 12.30am). After not being able to get our car we stayed at a local hotel (which cost us an extra £79) and called them immediately at 6am on 24th December. We were shocked and very upset to find that the car we had hired (Fiat 500) had been rented to someone else, even though the office had been closed between 12:15am and 6am! The employee at Easirent said the booking didnt have our flight details on so they werent able to check if there was a delay, however I had the voucher from Auto Europe with our flight details in my hand to prove I had provided this information. They said that Auto Europe did not pass this information on. This meant we then had to upgrade to a larger 7 seater car which cost us an horrendous £500 but as it was Christmas Eve we felt our consumer rights had been truely abused and there was no other option for us.

" Until this experience, I would have, and gave recommended autoeurope, having used your service for around 10 years. Not anymore. I sent you 3 emails within 24 hours of the above experience, asking for reassurance I would not be charged for this hire. I submitted a comaint form a day or two later. I am still awaiting any reply 10 days after I submitted my complaint. Had you responded satisfactorily, I would have continued to recommend you, but say only book one of the reputable international firms: avis, hertz, europcar etc. Now I will no longer use you, or recommend you, unless you provide me with a respectful and heloful response to my multiple correspondence to you regarding this unpleasant, and highly inconvenient experience. Thank you "
" Awful. I phoned to say I would be an hour later for pick up. They did not answer the phone so I had to go through the autoeurope number in order to give them the message. I arrived to order the pick up and said I was going straight to the pick up point. They didn't bother to say they would take 25 minutes to get there. When I rang after 20 minutes waiting they did not reply. Eventually they turned up and when I said it would have been better to have said how long they would take they said it was me who was an hour late, despite me informing them of this 4 hours earlier. Unpleasant. When we arrived at the hire office which was a 15 minute drive from the airport there was only 1 person serving, so I had to wait a further 20 minutes while the customer before me was served. They insisted as well as a passport and driving licence (which shows an address) on having a utility bill with current address, otherwise they would not let anyone leave with a car. This requirement was not highlighted in any of the correspondence from you, including the reminder sent from autoeurope 2 days prior to pickup, I found it deep on page 3 of the voucher. Having been hiring cars regularly for 12 years I have never had this requirement imposed before. The customer ahead of me eventually found a proof of address on her phone, prolonging the wait further. Thet also dud a very hard sell on her for extra insurance. When it got to my turn, I was unserstandably upset. Having been travelling since 7 in the morning and more than an hour since arriving at the pickup point it appeared I was not going to be given a car. When I expressed my upset they accused me of being abusive and asked me to leave. I was not abusive I was exasperated and upset, and they were unhelpful in tge extreme. I got the impression, this was a regular action on their part. Of the four people who came to pick up cars while I was there only one left with a car. All for the same reason. Interesting. I was given a lift back to Southampton airport, back 1 3/4 hours after I arrived. I was able, luckily to get a train to my destination, Weymouth, but due to a reduced service did not arrive until 1 in the morning. "

" We have used Easirent at East Midlands Airport several times now. We have also used most of the other companies. Easirent is our favourite. The staff are pleasant, they pick you up at the airport rather than having to take the bus to the new parking village and there place is 5 minutes away at the services. They always go round the car with you to look for damage and often point out things I miss, unlike other companies who tell you there is no damage and you have to go back to report it yourself. I sometimes wonder how the staff can miss the damage but then it's probably that they can't be bothered to fill in the paperwork. So Easirent is our first choice. "

" AutoEurope as a company are great. We've dealt with them lots of times. Easirent, on the other hand, seem to be steadily going downhill. "
" Our flight on Wed 5 Dec was delayed such that the Easirent office was closed by the time we got to Liverpool. Their rules are that if the car isn't collected within 5 hours, then we lose the rental - which we did. The following morning, despite explaining to the man at the desk that we were delayed beyond our control, he remained unnecessarily pedantic about the the proof of our address that was required to commence a completely new rental agreement (we, like most other people these days, do not have paper-copy utility bills, showing our home address (they are all digital), and anyway we certainly didn't have one on this occasion, as we had already hired a car for the previous day!). The only document we could provide was over 3 months old. Did it REALLY matter under the extreme circumstances in which we found ourselves?!?! The result was that he insisted on seeing proof of our return flight, which was also awkward, as Ryanair now don't let you check in until 3 days before departure, so we had difficulty in locating the necessary booking online. So, overall, after a disastrous night, where we couldn't get home to North Wales, Easirent didn't make it any better. Another point worth making is that the staff there are negligent in not proactively warning renters about the Merseyflow toll system (they used to have information leaflets out on the desk to advise people, but now they are hidden in a tray at the back, so tourists, or individuals new to Liverpool, will likely have no understanding of how the system works and just how UN- user-friendly it is!). The cynic in me says that it's because Easirent stand to make money out of customers who fall foul of the fine system. Poor show overall. "

" Funny one for me. I don't know wether I would go back or not. Don't know if they would let me. The price and the car itself I can't fault; very good. The chaps were patient. The problem? I dropped the car back & came away feeling violated. They charged me £355 for scratching both nearside alloys; who would put them on a hire car in the 1st place? On one wheel they had to point it out to me, I couldn't find it! I don't know if I did it or not (I inspected the car in the dark when I collected it) but I won't pretend that I couldn't have done it and it wasn't noted down on the inspection form. I would call that 50-50 but accepting it's not my car so... £355, I don't think so. Anyway the excess protection insurance providers have agreed to reimburse me so I'm not as angry as I was and might even consider using Easirent again as everything else was great. Besides perhaps all hire firms are as rapacious? "

" As with my comments on easirent my displease with autoeurope is covered in the above for not giving necessary details about the rental and also selling us insurance that doesn't cover us "
" Booked our car via you. We had a flight cancelled and ended up travelling half way round the world to get then. Once arriving in Aberdeen we found that our car had been given away due to our delay and we would need to pay extra for a different car. Then we were told that we needed to use a credit card and a debit card would not suffice. Even though we could prove we had the £1500 excess and even though we paid the higher price with auto Europe to cover that £1500 excess and were told this covers us for nothing with easy rent. At that point they told us our only option was to pay £200 for an insurance policy. Cleary a scam as the person at the counter new the exact page and reference number to the small price where a credit car was necessary. If we had been informed we would of made sure we had one with us. And of course when we tried to put the booking in my partners name because he had a credit card we could do that as the booking was in a different system. We walked away with no rental car, an hour of wasted time and £58 out of pocket. "

I had my driving license and my DVLA code which is what I have been asked for in the past. As an existing customer I would have thought I was on there system. I was told I could call your office and have the money transferred to another company, which I tried to do but your office was closed. I was then given the opportunity to purchase their insurance for £80+ for my 46 hours of hire. I have my own excess insurance at £39 per year.

" I already raised a complaint and a request for refund. Easirent had one person at the counter, and 7 clients queuing before us. We arrived at 10:00 pm, and left the location at 12:45 am!!! The car on the contract was Opel Corsa, the car we left with - Toyota Aygo. Another person was washing cars, and delivering these, which delayed the whole process immensely. Everyone on the queue had reservation, and none of the cars were ready!!!! Not a single client was served without some sort of a problem, and many were shouting at the man at the desk. The worst, however, was that at 12:00 am we were forced to either accept further charges or to leave without a car, because after the clerk charged us with a fuel deposit of 95 GBP, there were no sufficient funds in the credit card. We were not allowed to use another card, and we were not informed that there will be an extra deposit. So we ended up paying another 90 GBP for lowering the deposit, or we would have left without a car. I cannot imagine a worse scenario for car pick up! "

" Would use Auto-Europe again, always find cheapest deals there. Would avoid Easirent if other companies are close on price. Green motion in Bristol was similar and is excellent "
" I have use easirent twice, first time at Bristol was terrible, this time at Luton better. Their policies are inconsistently applied. I was asked at Luton to provide 2x proof of addresses to match my driving licence which was impossible as I have recently changed my name and moved house and the licence is yet to be updated. My rental was almost refused because of it until I said I was returning overseas in which case I just had to show my return flight details and then the 2 proofs of address were not required. This seems like a ploy to trip up UK licence holders and make money on the no cancellation reimbursement within 24 hours of rental start?? Also we were not asked for the proofs of address at Bristol Easirent - nor have I ever been asked for it with other rental companies. Fuel policy, both rentals I have opted for Full to Full but have been given a car with 1/4 tank of fuel. They mark it as empty and tell you to just bring it back empty and then you've had 1/4 tank for free but the point of opting for full-full is so that you don't have the stress of trying to run down a car who's fuel consumption you're not used to down to a specific level as they won't refund you if you bring it back with more than they give it to you with. Just fill them all up on return and charge anyone who doesn't bring it back full! They were the cheapest option which is why I used them twice but if there wasn't much in the price I would go with another company. "

" It came as a surprise to us that Easirent is located 25 minutes from Gatwick, we knew it was 'off-site' but had expected somewhere located around the airport perimeter. After asking a couple of bus drivers we worked out that there was a shuttle bus that ran every 45 minutes which. We had a bit of a wait as had just missed one. On arriving at the Easirent office (based at the back of the Crowne Plaza Hotel) it quickly became apparent that, unlike with larger rental operations, it is not possible to use a debit card for the security deposit on the car. This is tricky if you chose not to have a credit card and meant paying (a non-refundable) £200+ to take out the full cover premium for our 2.5 day rental term. As the car hire itself only cost in the region of £27 I decided against this and the Easirent employee we dealt with on the desk was lovely and called a cab for us. We got a taxi back to Gatwick and on the way I called a larger car company based at the airport and hired a car from them. Interestingly, whilst in the Easirent office another customer, who had arrived in on the same shuttle bus as us, was asked to pay and £1800 deposit plus £95 fuel deposit. This all came as a surprise to him and fortunately he had a credit card he could use. He was not happy and I heard him say he wouldn't be using the company again. When there are so many large car hire options around I think it must be tough for Easirent. Yes, they can be competitive on hire charges but the flip side of that are requirements such as – a £95 fuel deposit and when you have to deliver the car back it must have an accompanying receipt, from the petrol station you re-fuelled at and that petrol station has to be within a five-mile radius of the rental office. I also think having a pre-authorisation hold placed over £1800 of the credit amount on your credit card or having to make a surprise payment of at least a couple of hundred pounds could mean you have a very lean trip. This was my first experience of renting away from the larger companies and I have learned always to go with the mainstream. We live in the UK so it was easy for me to turn our situation around. For International visitors possibly having to rent a replacement vehicle at the drop of a hat in a country they have just landed in, it might be tricky. "

" I arrived at Luton airport and took the bus to the car hire centre. Easirent is not based there so had to go back to the airport and take a shuttle bus to a carpark in a village. Easirent was based in an indistinct portakabin at the back of this carpark and there were a lot of depressed looking people standing around outside. Once I entered the portakabin I understood why. There was a long queue of people waiting for cars and more people coming back inside after receiving significant downgrades. The man in front of me paid for an executive Mercedes and was given a small hatchback. All customers were told that £1500 would be held on their credit cards for up to 2 weeks unless they paid additional charges. The whole process was obviously designed to be confusing and people who were late for appointments were basically paying for stuff they didn't need just so they could get a car and get out of there. I had to pay an extra fee to remove the £1500 hold, even though I had already paid AutoEurope for increased liability. When I finally signed all the paperwork and went outside to collect my car I encountered another queue of people waiting for cars. There were no cars available and we had to just take whatever arrived back. After almost two hours, I was given a tiny Toyota Aygo car. I'm 6' 4" so I would never hire such a small car. I was told I could either take it or wait even longer for the car I ordered. I was already late for a meeting so I just took the car, which I was told had a full tank of petrol. When I was almost out of the gate I look at the fuel meter. It was empty. I turned the car around and went back into the office. They basically took the keys off a guy who was returning his car and told me to take it. The car was not cleaned or checked out in any way. When returning the car I went to leave the keys and rush to catch my flight. The guy on the desk told me to get to the back of the queue. I refused to stand in line and watch my flight take off without me, so left the keys and the car with them. I hope they don't try anything dodgy and I'm keeping a close eye on my credit card. "

Was very disappointed the car on collection was only half full of fuel despite my booking was full to full. On returning the vehicle I pointed out that the sticker reminding drivers to drive on left was reflected in the windscreen at exactly my point of vision and so therefore was not only distracting but impaired my driving vision. The staff member just shrugged and said its the same on all cars. I pointed out that just because that's the way it is, doesn't mean it's right. Would be useful to have manual in car or at least show how to open fuel cap, bonnet etc. Very speedy service which is appreciated and I of course could have asked these things too. "

" Awful experience. Arrived at 21:00, attended at 22:15 due to their IT system (Trax) being down. Booking had to be done by hand and in conjunction with Bristol office as their system was working. Easirent representative was completely stressed out and not in a state to attend customers. Car checked in poorly lit warehouse making it extremely difficult to identify dents or other imperfections (especially on the lower side of the car) Car was driven impeccably with absolutely no incidents over the next 2 days. When brought back I was told that the front nearside alloy was scratched and that it would be noted on damage report. Easirent representative didn't want to know about all the problem when the car was picked up. Charged 387€ (325£) for damage I did not cause. Disgusting treatment, these people are scammers and Auto Europe should disassociate themselves from them. No wonder they only have a one star rating which I was stupid enough to ignore when I made the booking. "

" Easirent at Gatwick airport is located in Crawley. To get there you need to take a bus, which only runs every 45 mins. The ride itself takes another 20 mins. Although we knew we had to take a shuttle bus, we didn't realize it would take that long. When we got to the Easirent office, their computer system was down, so they could not supply us with a car and had no idea how long it was going to take. I phoned Auto Europe and the only way to get a car was to take the bus back to Gatwick and then take another shuttle bus to a different car rental company. This was already 2 1/2 hours after we landed and we had a 2 hour drive ahead of us. Luckily, just then the computer system started up again and we were given an upgrade on the car and 1/2 tank of fuel. I feel that people who book a car with Easirent at Gatwick should be made aware of the time a takes to get from the terminal to the office. It took us over an hour. "

" On 8th October I was late collecting my car at BHX due to a flight delay notified 24 hours earlier. I had rung and informed them of the flight delay in advance and was thanked and assured of no change in prices. On arrival and at Easirent's BHX shuttle point I met two angry Americans alighting from the shuttle bus who advised me to be careful at Easirent as they had left WITHOUT THEIR VEHICLE in disgust at an attempt to 'upgrade' at a big cost to them because their small car ALLEGEDLY wasn't available. On arrival at the office I walked past a yard and garage full of vehicles including the small type I had booked. I was informed that as I was late my car had been released TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER and I was obliged to pay £67.20 for a larger model. (The same reason the Americans had left.) I recorded all the subsequent conversation on my telephone. My circumstances were such that I needed to get to Queen Elizabeth's Hospital and although I protested loudly and accused them of fraud because of the cars available in the yard and garage, I had to agree to pay. On leaving I photographed the 40+ cars available and the operative who dealt with me. I saw the booking schedule screen and noted that no more than four cars were due to go out that day. I picked up the huge Renault SUV I had BEEN allocated and left. This was a huge petrol-guzzling monster that I did not want. I reported the matter to West Midlands Police and Birmingham City Trading Standards that evening. On 11th October I was obliged to extend my hire by one more day and had to pay the higher rental charge of £42 for the day FOR THIS BIGGER VEHICLE. In this transaction I gave all my credit card details but my credit card was allegedly declined and I was obliged to use a different debit card. At 0030 hours that night my bank woke me by telephone to report that attempts were being made to purchase items using my credit card and debit card details to obtain pizza and a cycle. I have had to cancel all my cards. No one else other than Easirent has the credit card details as it was new, to satisfy the requirements of the hire. "

" When you do book the Car it doesn't mention any Utility Bills to provide, but on the Voucher afterward, it does, I and many others were surprised and found it not clear enough.

" 1) While the desk clerk at intake was warm and very helpful, the rest of the crew was in a rush. Once outside, the answers to my questions were rushed. I understand that these guys are doing the same thing each day and things seem easy and straightforward, but to a foreign traveler, it is important to take time with each customer, making sure they are comfortable in the newly acquired information. 2) I have and will continue to warn travelers about "off site" pick up and drop off opportunities. Especially at night, the stress of returning a vehicle in a relatively unfamiliar area is strong. I know an off-site location makes for cheaper rentals, but I will not do this again and I will make sure friends understand the complications of returning Providing a MAP for returning the vehicle would make things MUCH easier. 3) Relying on customers to have internet connections for receiving contract details and the emergency information is not appropriate. Not every customer has consistent internet when traveling in a foreign country. 4) The local (Edinburgh airport) office phone number on the contract did not go through when I was trying to inform them of a delay in returning the vehicle. This lack of communication unnecessarily added to my stress level. 5) I strongly suggest you adjust your policies to the above comments if you want to reach a broader market of travelers. "

I was given a deal that was far more expensive than I originally wanted and so I asked to be refunded - which took 5 days. I will not recommend them or use the service ever because I felt offended by the experience. Even if I was wrong, I was disrespected. "

" I waited 35 minutes and thereafter 15 minutes on a silent phone whilst the Auto Europe rep clarified the reasons why my car was not available at Easirent. Only due to my insistence did I get an alternative hire without having to wait 2 hours for the paperwork to be processed. Alamo provided a hire and I was very impressed with their service. However, I had to pay extra to Alamo for the same level of insurance cover that I initially had and paid for with Easirent. "
" Arrived at the airport and requested a shuttle bus to the pickup location of the hire. I was informed by the Easirent rep that due to a crash he had no vehicle available and I should contact Auto Europe to rectify the issue. "

" The Easirent pickup from Heathrow is very poor. The company does not have any pickup vehicles of their own and customers have to get a public bus to the office. This information is not immediately available and I had to ring the helpline to find the information. Also the public bus only runs every 30 minutes which is highly unsatisfactory. I would not recommend Easirent from Heathrow to any of my colleagues and I certainly wont use them again. "

" See above. "
" Please see following complaint email sent on 24-09-18. No response received. The pick-up process was unnecessarily lengthy and complex and the car I received was not up to standard. 1. Although I appreciate that all the information was available pre-pickup, it was not made obvious to the customer and feels like it is designed to mislead the customer into a situation where they are obliged to pay more for their rental. Burying the essential information that UK residents must bring 2 forms of ID as the 5th sentence, of the 3rd bullet on the 3rd page of the booking voucher really does not help. As evidenced by the SIX people who experience this same problem in the 2 hours I was at Easirent. Look at the "Tips for a Smooth Car Hire Experience", first tick lists "all" the documentation you need. Except it doesn't does it? 2. Unnecessarily specific requirements on provision of a credit card in the 1st driver's name. (4 people in 2 hours also had this issue). I was present at the pick-up, with my credit card, and prepared to even add myself onto the booking. I made and paid for the booking, but this was not good enough. Even a £1500 sale on a debit card (just as good if not better than an auth on a credit card was not acceptable. The alternative - pay £190 for additional insurance plus a credit check. A cynic might think this policy is designed to be difficult to drive sales of the insurance policy which is worth approximately £9.95. All of which meant I had to swap the booking into my name (which, to give you credit, the person on the phone from auto europe did for free and was very helpful), then add on Penni as a named driver at a cost of £50 (more than the original rental!). I then had to go home to get all my docs, which incurred additional taxi costs at £13. 3. To rub salt in the wounds, after I've jumped through every hoop, paid an additional £63, plus a £95 deposit for PETROL(!), I'm taken out to the car... Which is not an i20 equivalent (on your website) or a Fiesta equivalent (on easirent's website), but a Toyota Aygo. When I said it was the wrong car group, I was told it was, because it had 5 doors. When I pointed out the near-by Insignia also had 5 doors (being purposely pedantic), I was told it was not in the group I had booked because it was bigger. Exactly! It's the size of car, not the number of doors. A Toyota equivalent to a Fiesta or i20 is a Yaris, not an Aygo. We needed to get multiple people and a car seat in the car. I only noticed once I was home and fitting the car-seat, that the Aygo is a strict 4-seater (4 belts), not the 5-seater I booked. I'm sure easirent would not be happy with 5 people illegally riding in the car. I was handed the key and it is a plain black key with no keyring, buttons, etc. and I comment that they'd lost the main key with remote locking so I'd have to use the secondary key that has to manually lock and unlock the car - on the driver's door only. Wow, we're back to the 90's! There was a lot of external light damage to many panels and wheels, I had to identify most of it and it was dusk. The interior plastics were streaked and dirty looking There was a big object on the windscreen - on returning to the desk and enquiring, this is a tracker and dash-cam. No mention at any point of this or collection of permission to record us. First time I've ever experienced this on a hire car. 4. I requested some reduction of rental or compromise on the additional cost incurred and experienced the same indifferent "It's not my fault" service that I and everyone else with these problems experienced the whole time I was there. We were told it was our fault for booking through a 3rd party, that it was the 3rd party's policy when often it was not, and the member of staff was forcefully and rudely enforcing rules that contradicted the printed policy and the conditions of booking. I was offered an additional 2-3 hours on my booking. As it was 2-3 hours after my booking that I finally managed to drive away this was laughable. Please could you confirm how you are going to address these issues with your supplier and what suitable recompense you can offer to me. "

" I have to give Auto Europe this rating, as you sub contracted the rental to Easirent, and listed above, the whole Easirent experience was very unpleasant. A plus point is the opportunity to purchase the indemnity insurance from Auto Europe through "Auto Refunds". They were very good and professional. "
" At the pickup :- i) It took more than 3 hours for Easirent to collect us from the agreed pick up point ii) The car was dirty and had not been properly valeted iii) The car was considerably larger than the one we had ordered resulting in increased fuel charges iv) The car was not fully fuelled At the dropoff: i) Easirent claimed that one of the alloy wheels was damaged when the vehicle was returned. I could not even see the alleged damage, however Easirent was insistent that there was some scuffing on the very rim of the wheel. ii) Easirent staff were extremely rude and we felt that they were actively gloating that they thought that they could make a claim for the alleged damage. iii) Easirent charged GBP250 **for a new wheel** and GBP75 for an "admin fee". It is my opinion that they will pocket the money and hope that they can charge the next renter for exactly the same damage. I think that it is extremely unlikely that they will replace the wheel. The alleged scuff mark certainly would not have any effect on the car's safety or operation. iv) Drop off faciltities were dirty and toilets stinking and out of order. Easirent staff smoking in the garage immediately next to signs indicating that smoking was forbidden in that area, An extremely unpleasant experience. "

" The broker AutoEurope and Easirent do not share the same information- thus I was bullied into getting full coverage from the person at the counter because when I mentioned I already got full coverage from autoeurope, the person told me "I don't know anything about that, you got that from a 3rd party and we're not sure that will cover you" so I ended up paying double for the same coverage. There should be better communication between autoeurope and the easirent. All in all, not a great experience. "

" This trip was rather unlucky. My flight was heavily delayed - not something that AutoEurope had anything to do with. However, it didn't seem possible to get through on the phone to update the reservations team and work out the available options. Tried 3 times from Schiphol, well inside opening hours, but was simply kept in the queue listening to an increasingly irritating and poor quality piece of music. Eventually, when we arrived at Gatwick and tried to get to the car hire location, but found that this wasn't possible via the advertied shuttle, we again couldn't get hold of the help line. Such a pity. You normally do so well. This time, the inability to take my call (or react to my emails) added uncertainty to a less than ideal situation. "

Bills must not be older than 3 months at time of collection. " Now your man underlined this before i went home to collect a bill. He then insisted the licence had to be less than 3 months old also. I disagreed and said the text was plain enough to understand. He refused so I said to cancel the whole thing, and so I took my business elswhere.

" Auto Europe themselves were good when it came to me needing to contact Easirent, when no one picked up the phone when I called them directly. I was able to go through Auto Europe who passed me on and I got to speak to an Easirent rep pretty quickly. My only thoughts, as I have mentioned in my comments about Easirent, are that it would have been better if all the upfront costs and deposits were laid out plainly right from the start. I'm not sure if this is something Auto Europe would be able to do, as they are the middle-man company, and can only work with what the supplier gives them. "
" I booked through Auto Europe and despite meticulously looking for any small print, at pick-up I was presented with having to spend more money on insurance cover, which I thought was already included. Not a huge deal but I just feel like I'd done my due diligence to check for extra costs before booking, and was still somehow slapped with another charge right when I was picking up the vehicle. As we were already there and couldn't NOT get a car, I just went ahead with the insurance. It was also not made particularly clear to me whether I needed to choose one of the insurance covers or if I could have declined to purchase - it was only afterwards that I realised I may have not needed to. I knew beforehand that I needed to put down a £1250 holding deposit for any damages on my credit card, but was not at any point while booking told that I also needed to put down another £95 deposit for the fuel policy. Luckily this is a cost that was returned once I'd dropped the car off, but covering almost an extra £100 may not have been possible for some people even if they'd budgeted to cover the initial £1250 deposit. It would have been nice to have known beforehand. Otherwise, the car itself was in good condition and clean, and pick-up and drop-off was easy. "

" Words fail me! "
" Office not located where stated on my voucher. After having told the member of staff that I did not want ANY extra payment other than what had been paid already. After having showed him a copy of my independant excess insurance he proceeded to do the paperwork. He implied that if I did not give him an email address I would be charged extra and penalised. He then asked me to sign for the car and told me about the amount that would be blocked on my credit card which I knew about. He then said that the amount would be reduced but I had to sign for it and sign for receipt of the vehicle. He turned the screen around for me to sign which I did. The I was told that the car was unmarked but when I checked it there were several marks that were not documented. I had to get these noted and also the car interior was not clean. That evening my wife checked our online bank and saw that two amounds had been taken off my credit card. £55 and £95. She rang Easirent to query this and spoke to somenoe on the counter who was extremely abrupt and told her that I was fully aware of what I was signing and then he hung up! This is the worst experience with a hire car company I have ever had. I hire vehicles on a regular basis and have never had such an immoral, underhand, sly, dishonest experience. This branch of Easirent cannot be trusted. They obviously pray on travellers who are tired and weary and bamboozle them into paying for something that they did not need or want. "

" I have no idea since I didn't realize you were two different bodies and you might have helped me at some point. "
" Upon arrival I was collected about 15 min after I called. The rep apologized for being alone as his colleague reported sick. The car on offer was a grade lower than I paid (i 10, not i 20), battered and not very clean inside, but the rep insisted its the only automatic they have at the moment. Then he told me that for 1 little scratch I will have to pay the maximum sum held on my card and offered several options for paying extra at the counter. It had never happened to me before and I was in a hurry, and he spooked me so I paid 100 Euro to cut the total by half in case of damaged. And yes, I did damage the car on my very first drive out, I grazed it on the left side and will pay the rest. But he wasn't nice at the reception. Then coming back the door was locked and out of another car comes a nice young man sent from Cardiff, with no keys, no nothing, not even a pen, and not knowing the way to the airport. I did have sat nav but luckily some other guys arrived with their hired car and we all got to the airport while I signed the copy of the damages form in the car with their pen, and he took it, leaving me with no papers of the deal at all! They could take any sum from my card now, as far as I know. All in all, I understand I made several mistakes in choosing this company, not understanding what is involved, not calling anyone when I was at the reception of the car, and then I drove very stressed, and damaged the car, which is indeed my fault. Next time I'll use a bigger provider, pay more initially but maybe get better service all around. "

" Arrived at the airport and dialled the Easirent number to be picked up. I had to wait 25 minutes for the mini bus to arrive. I got to the depot and they had problems with the computers. Obviously this can't be helped but as time wore on no attempt was made to appease those who were waiting, for example a free drink. I waited a further 40 mins. After all this time my car still wasn't ready so I had to wait a further 20 minutes. When I finally received the car it hadn't been cleaned and was covered in dirt and bird droppings. I refused the car until it was washed. My car was supposed to be ready for 11:00 am. I received the cleaned car at 12:55. "

" Drop off staff was very friendly. Pick up staff in EDI friendly but the process of getting the car took around one hour. Too long. Not enough staff. They made us pay 200UKP for their excess insurance because their "system" refused(?) to accept our credit card due to a minor spelling difference between the name on the card and the name on the passport. The very same "system" hat no problem though clearing the 200UKP for insurance. Car not cleaned properly, wind shield inside full of finger prints and markings causing too much reflection.

I believe that they purposefully (or could not explain) added extras on to get more money from me and charged me a ridiculous amount for petrol. To add to this they gave me an automatic car that I wasn't happy or comfortable about driving which I believe is not only against the Consumers Rights Act but also put myself, the car and my passengers at more risk of damage or injury.

" The counter staff did not explain all the extras and by the time I came away we ended up spending roughly 8 times more than originally expected.

They then said I needed to bring 2 utility bills, which my voucher did not. Another clerk told another hirer on the next desk to me that his "refundable excess" policy he had taken out was pretty useless and he should pay a lot more for a better "no excess" policy and the poor chap felt this was unnecessary sales pressure he gave in to because the clerk made him feel it was useless. When I returned the car I was given no receipt or paperwork and none ever arrived by email afterwards as promised. As nobody looked at the car when I checked it back in, I was concerned I might be charged for something afterwards and have no proof of the state of the car when I returned it. This particular depot proved to be too far from the airport for me, more inconvenient to get to than I thought it would be as the transfer shuttle bus was slow and Easirent didn't answer the phone on the calls I made to them to ask if the bus ran to a schedule.

" When I got to the Easirent office one of the staff was quite rude about the queuing arrangement that the customers had adopted- the queue was formed based on the single operative being busy with another customer and had asked those waiting to pre fill in a form. When a second Easirent operative came into the area he rudely ordered those queuing to return-align. Then when eventually I was served it was apparent that my modified booking was mishandled by Autoeurope. Easirent were initially unable to find my booking. Eventually by giving them the original date for collection the booking was identified, but they advised me that due to the booking error there was no car available, even if I tried to rebook online at that moment.

I am a photographer and was shooting each day up until I travelled other than the sunday and I tried twice to call (on hold for 25 mins and I gave up) and I also emailed to say that I did not have a CC. I received no reply. When I arrived on Monday I was advised that I would need to pay £35 per day for insurance cover (an extra £140) because I didn't have a personal CC and then I was asked what fuel option I would like. Either pay for a full tank or use what I needed to and refill the tank. I told the agent (George) that I was travelling 100 miles to Crear near Kilberry and he said I should buy the full tank as I would need it. I have never hired a big car like the one I was given with a 70 litre engine and it turned out that my round trip didn't even use 1/3 of the tank. I specifically asked the agent what was best and effectively I have paid an additional £72 for a full tank of diesel when I only used 1/3r of a tank. So not only did I pay the extra £140 for insurance but then an additional £72 which I didn't need to pay. If someone had advised me of the additional insurance cost, I would have hired elsewhere. And when I returned the car the agent who checked it in said he would speak with his manager about refunding the difference in fuel. I have not heard anything yet. I am angry that you advertise yourselves as cheap easy rent when you are far from it. This car hire ended up costing me £300 which was 3 times the amount it should have cost. I feel I have been totally ripped off and you did not give me the chance to book elsewhere as you didn't reply to my email about the lack of personal CC. Not everyone has a CC and you should not punish those who don't. "

" Conditions were unclear. There were apparently no communications possible between easirent and autoeurope and I was unable to get through to autoeurope to rectify a mistake in the booking. As a result I was not granted access to the car. I was not able to even come back the next day to get the car and so because I was UNABLE TO CONTACT AUTOEUROPE my whole holiday was destroyed and my money lost. I was then offered the additional insult that I was not able to contact customer services to complain until after the originally proposed end date of my trip even though, for me, it had ended before it began. I am disgusted with the service of this company. "
" Because of their relationship with the broker I was unable to rectify issues with my primary driver details and was not given access to the booking and lost all my money. I will never use Easirent or auto europe ever again and will ensure my acquaintances don't either. "

It was documented by the staff before I left with the car, as well as myself. However, I was uncomfortable with the amount of risk I was taking. Also, the policy of a £1,200 deposit from a credit card is a turn-off. Not everyone has that money and that information is not readily available before you book your rental. Additionally, I requested a GPS for my rental, and was told it was included in the price. When I paid, Easirent tried to have me pay an extra £15/day and said I couldn't have the GPS unless I paid that amount. VERY disappointing. "

" There was no explanation of the fuel deposit and I was not given the opportunity to formally approve it being taken from my card of £95. That's illegal. The normal deposit is prohibitively high for the average person - £1,250 - which is actually £1,350 if you include the fuel deposit. It just seems unnecessary. I also received a car after waiting for 45 minutes which was older and higher mileage when other cars in the class I had booked we're sitting ready to go in the yard. I am confused as to why. The only reason I think the value was decent is because it was only £15 to hire this time, but for their normal prices I would be more dissatisfied. "

The staff clearly understood my issue and acknowledged the car was under sized but had nothing else in the same category. The only alternative was for me to pay to upgrade to a Citroën C4 Picasso which, in my opinion, should have been a similar size to the car ordered. As I was away from the airport, I had no alternative than to pay for the upgrade. Terrible service and blatant misrepresentation "

" The car itself was great but it was way too expensive for what we required - a complete rip off really. "
" Well first of all we were ripped off on our arrival to the tune of £250 when we arrived at your Stansted base. I had booked the four day hire for £100 which seemed good value but after all the extras we were made to pay for it became very expensive. This sort of behaviour is unacceptable - the price should be the price not a base from which to exploit the customer. Quite simply not good enough. "

" By far and away the worst car hire experience I have ever had. Didn't believe the reviews until I went through it myself. Firstly it is the complete lack of care and interest the staff have - with the misogynistic comments and attempts to scam you out of every penny they can. Despite having all the paperwork, they kept me waiting for over an hour and half before giving me the car I had booked. In the time it took me to collect my car I witnessed them harrass three young women, rip off another customer by forcing him to upgrade (for more money) to another car as they had already given away his car and making others jump through hoops just so they could start their holiday. And since the bookings are nonrefundable, they are genuinely not interested in helping you. The prices are so cheap because they charge you a huge excess and only take credit cards (no debit cards). If you don't want to pay the huge excess, they aren't much cheaper than a Hertz or Enterprise. "

" Overall a very poor and unsatisfactory experience "
" I wrote to the Manager at Southampton re the rental but have yet to receive a reply. I rented a vechicle on line and upgraded to Hyundai 130 or similar. I travelled to the airport by train and as instructed rang for the shuttle bus., I called at least 10 times before I got a reply. When the shuttle bus arrived the driver told me he wasn't sure they had a car for me. At the office I was told I need 2 documents that showed my home address. I was somewhat frustrated that I had not been told this earlier and that I had to make arrangements to have these documents brought to me. I would comment that I have rented vehicle all over the world but have never before needed proof of my home address. Given what I had been told earlier I checked that there was definatley a vehicle for me . I was told yes, there was a Renault Capture. You can imagin e my surprise when whilst I waited for the documents to arrive, I saw the Renault Capture drive away. At the Office I was told that there was no longer a vehicle of the size I'd order and the only vehicle they had was a smaller Toyota Aygo. This was very inconveient as I had the make 2 fairly lengthy trips, but given the fact that I needed a car for Monday morning, I felt I had no option but to accept, I was told I would receive a partial refund, but they were not able to tell me how much as they said it would be dealt with at head office, at present I've heard no more. I was told the insurance excess was £1.250, but could be offset by paying an additional premium of £196, this equated to £28 per day, more than I was paying for the hire and equivelent £10,192 per year, probably more than the car was worth. I decided not to take the additional cover as I thought it excessive. I consider myself a relatively safe driver, having driven more than 1 million miles in my life and not having made any kind of insurance claim for about 20years. I went out to collect the vehicle, it had not been washed or cleaned out on the inside, there were dead insects stuck to the car and mud splashes on the vehicle, I looked the car over fairly quickly and told the rep I though there was a road chip on the vehicle, he said he thought it was dirt; given the time I'd already spent, I didn't want to waste any more time and drove off. I was somewhat inconvenienced by having a smaller vehicle with much less comfort than I'm used to or expected. When I returned the vehicle it was examined with a fine tooth comb and I was told there was a mark on the paintwork, this was probably the road chip I had mentioned at the point of hire. I accept there was a tiny mark on the car approx 2mm long and 1.5mm wide. but I do not accept this occurred whilst the vehicle was in my possesion, I do not recall any kind of incident and was careful where I parked the car. I do not accept responsibility and expect my £1,250 to be returned in full. I understand the reason of excess on insurance policies, that in the event of damage by collision or other the firs t £1,250 would need to be met by the insured person, or in the event the damage is less, the policy holder would have full responsibility for the repair. In this case the damage is minute and the cost of repair would be very minimal, If It is decided that I am responsible for this "damage" I would only expect to pay for the actual repair and would expect to see the bill. Finally before I left I asked about the refund for being allocated a smaller car than I ordered, but no one was able to advise me and I was told to E mail the manager at Southampton Airport Depot, which I have done. I've no responce to my enquiry on the refund or the return of the £1,250 paid "

I use AutoEurope for all my car rentals all over the world but my experience in the UK with Green Motion and Easirent,has taught me to not use them again. "
" It should never be called Easirent but Difficultrent. I picked the car up at 11.00pm in Gatwick. We were dropped off from a buss from the Airport with about 6 renters. The staff were tired and eating their supper and it took each person about 15minutes to get their cars. Every one was being up sold so everyone was asked for more money. There was confusion and lots of unhappiness from other renters. I was a UK citizen. I needed proof of my address other than my driving license. I had two hard copies showing my address. An insurance certificate and my private health certificate. Neither were acceptable to the desk staff. Finally I found in my computer a copy of a tax receipt with my address on it. This was acceptable so they then took a photograph of just my name and address, no other details. This took me more than half an hour to sort out. I was very unhappy about all of this. I would never never ever rent from this company again. "

When I insisted I did not want their cover, I had to provide my credit card as Surety but they wanted a chip and pin. I did not have the pin as I only use my credit card for carrental and hotels and have never been asked for my pin before. I even got Nationwide on the phone to tell them it was unnecessary. I was BY now 3 hours late and with bags etc was forced to pay £130 extra to cover CDW. They ga be me a so called upgrade but I did not need it and it was less economical.

No apology for the delay when we did manage to arrange the shuttle. The office itself was filthy. Customer service lacking and poor interaction with the staff. Had no issues with the car itself. When we dropped it back to the office, we were asked to walk back to the airport, despite being told we could take the shuttle. Begrudgingly taken back to the airport after asking for the shuttle.

This was paid by my personal account & will therefore have to claim on expenses. I also thought that the three insurance levels given was a very hard sell!!! 3. Again the fuel deposit of £90 was very disappointing. 4. The car had not been cleaned. 5. Having to drop off at the office rather than the airport puts additional stress on the experience.

" We arrived at the Easirent offices at Heathrow Airport. For the rental service we had to go up the stairs to the third floor with the suitcases. There were a number of people waiting and one staff member of the company. Our car rental included the insurance: DWC, TP. The company staff member (Kish) told us that the insurance we made at Auto-europe had no value for them and they do not know Auto-europe and that we have to make new insurance with them or alternatively deposit £1500 as collateral for every scratch or other problem that arises during the rental. He said that we should call you to get a refund for the insurance we made with you. Since there was no answer, we gave up. In order not to lose our trip we were charged £ 25 per day for additional insurance. That means we added another £ 75 to the original rental price we paid with you. In addition, we had to deposit another £95 as a guarantee for the return of a full tank of fuel (even though we signed the return of a full tank). I have all the payment receipts. As a result of all the above, we went on a trip two hours late and with great distress. We were treated bluntly and we emerged with great embarrassment and unpleasantness, and this was beyond the additional payment. "

" I've rented many many vehicles previously and never encountered the level of service encountered with easirent. The time it takes to arrange to be collected from the station to their depot is excessive and during the journey the driver drove way above the speed limit. The time taken to collect the car was also excessively long. Overall I am totally disappointed that I ever encountered Easirent. Online reviews show similar issues with other customers. "
" First attempt to collect the vehicle resulted in me leaving as they did not have a vehicle to rent in the class I'd requested. They tried to upgrade me to another vehicle at a cost to me ranging from £250-388. I left {incurring additional rail fare} to return later in the day to collect a suitable vehicle. Pressure put on me to buy the tank of fuel and return the vehicle empty. During the hire I noticed my credit card had been charged twice for the fuel bond and the tank of fuel. With this in mind I returned the vehicle full of fuel only to find that I would not have the tank of fuel reimbursed despite pointing out that they had charged me twice for the fuel. At check in they tried to charge for damages to an alloy wheel and a tiny 'pen size' mark on the drivers door. Upon checking they found the alloy had been damaged during a previous rental. I disputed the damage to the door and due to its size it would be easy to miss during the check out. Eventually agreed to pay the damaged door with them already knowing I'd a separate insurance to cover this. I have raised the issue with the fuel charges with their customer services and also informed Auto Europe of the same and the above facts. The representative at check in said he'd emailed head office requesting a refund for the fuel but on further investigation at a later date this was not showing up with customer services. "

At reception I was told I needed 2 extra pieces of ID on top of the 2 I already had otherwise I would have to take out their excess ins even though I have an annual policy. Took so long getting online for bank statement, etc to prove my ID that I had been there for over an hour and half that their computer treated me as a No Show and they wanted to charge me almost £200 instead of the £67 I had pre booked. Eventually after I refused and explained it was their red tape and messing around that had caused the delay, they finally gave me the price I had booked at. Terrible service and very stressful! "

" Car, counter service, details given - excellent My only hesitation is the delay in both directions waiting for the shuttle bus. "
" The only issue is the waiting time for the shuttle. I arrived half an hour before I needed to be at the airport but arrived 40 minutes after I arrived. This caused me delays getting to the plane and left me rather anxious. The gentleman at the reception was very pleasant. The woman not so much. "

" This was the worst car rental experience I have ever had. All charges were agreed to at the time of rental and in particular this company advised that a fuel deposit of GBP 95.00 would be held on my CC and charged if the vehicle was returned less than full. This amount was actually charged to my card at the time of rental. When I emailed them I was advised by a standard response to refer to the website or call the branch in question. I decided to call them on numerous occasions and the phone was never answered. Ridiculous!!! When the car was returned FULL of fuel I asked them to reverse the charge. The GBP 95.00 was credited back to my CC and because my card is in AUD I am now out of pocket AUD 14.00 because of FX differentials. If the amount was held instead of charged I would not be out of pocket. This whole experience from the time we picked up the car and the drop off was an absolute joke. Despite uploading copies of my passport and driving licence the day before to speed up their pick up process, it still took over an hour to collect the car. The only positive I can give about this experience was the car itself. It was great, but that's about it I'm afraid. I found their staff to be very unprofessional and this will be the last time that I will use them. Never again and I hope they get this feedback. "

" The car ordered (large) wasn't available on arrival. Having no other option given the timing, I took the car available (economy, small) which hadn't been cleaned. No apology was provided at any stage. I'm over it now, but at the very least, AE should recoup the money paid. If that came back to me as a voucher, I would be more than happy as I use you frequently. Continuing to offer AE clients access to Easirent looks bad for AE's brand. "

" I had an awful experience with Auto Europe and will certainly not be using them again or recommending them to a friend. Why was important information such as the fact that I needed to take another form of photo ID with me in addition to my driving licence, as well as a recent utility bill, buried in the terms & conditions of the booking instead of being more clearly and conspicuously stated on my voucher ticket? As a result of this, I was unable to pick up my car and had to cancel the reservation and incur a £25 admin charge. I have never been required to produce any other documentation before when picking up a hire car, other than my driving licence. "
" My issue wasn't so much with Easirent, it was with Auto Europe, and specifically their failure to clearly inform me of the fact that I would need to take another form of photo id in addition to my driving licence, and a recent utility bill, along with me when collecting the car. This meant that I was unable to collect the car because I didn't have the required documentation and left stranded 3 miles from Southampton Airport Parkway which is where I arrived to pick up the car.

" I would hope that you row in on this matter and provide support for your customer "
" I feel ripped off by your agent. I have 2 open tickets with their support. My car was not available on arrival and I was forced to pay for an upgrade to on ly other available car. And I was also charged a fuel deposit in error which was not refunded in full. See transcript of correspondance. I was forced into an upgrade when collecting my rental car as the one I had reserved and paid for was no longer available as I did not collect it "at the correct time". I was quoted some terms and conditions that I cannot find anywhere on your site regarding collection times. How do you expect to deal with flight delays?? I had reserved the car for 10am. I arrived at airport at 11am. It took me until 11.30 to find the location of the rental office (very obscure location) and waited as the staff member dealt with another customer. By the time all my administration was complete it was 11.50 and I was then informed my car was not available. This is unacceptable in its entirety. Nothing relating to this random rule available here https://www.easirent.com/rental-terms/. The only available car incurred a change which I was forced to pay. Once complete I was then informed (after fuel payment) that the car tank was empty and I needed to refuel asap!!!! I expect a full refund on my upgrade charge as a minimum. I await your response. David Dear Customer, Please see the link for our FAQs https://www.easirent.com/faqs/ its states we only hold cars for a limited amount of time especially busy periods. We apologize for the inconvenience of the vehicle being empty on collection. We do deal with flight delays as long as we have a flight number to go off in the booking which we did not have for yourself, Unfortunately the vehicle was released to another customer before you arrived for the vehicle. We also would not refund the amount for the different vehicle as it's a much bigger vehicle than booked and you had not advised us you was going to be late. Kind Regards, Easirent Dear Liverpool Airport Manager, Your FAQs refer to a late penalty, not the release of the car so it is not ok to rejust my request. The fact that the car available was "much bigger" is irrelevant, that was not my choice. I did not arrive by flight so flight number is not relavent either. I ask again that you reconsider your position and refund in full David and other issue... You charged my a fuel deposit and it turned out the car was empty. This was an administrative error on your behalf. The deposit was subsequently refunded, but not in full. My charge was €109.44 and the refund was €105.58. Possibly due to currency exchanges. Since the charge was a mistake and not in the course of ordinary business the transaction fees should not be bore by me the customer. So I ask that you refund the difference of €3.86. If you are refunding in Sterling as I assume you are, I suggest that the refund amount makes sure that the original change is covered. David "

" Overall fine, good value but the distance to the rental location from the airport and the waiting time (circa 1h) to be picked up are not mentioned before renting - if they had been I would likely have chosen a different supplier based at the car rental depot onsite at Stansted. "
" Great car, very new and well specified. Counter staff we OK, courtesy driver was a bit brusque (it was hot. but that's not really an excuse). I was surprised to be questioned why I wanted an estate car though - surely it's up to me to choose what I want and not to be questioned about it? We also had to pay a £95 fuel deposit (which despite returning the car with a full tank will take 10-15 days to refund) and the £1200 excess deposit is taken, not blocked, from your credit card (also with a 10-15 day return time), so make sure you have heaps of credit on your card - taking these deposits rather than merely blocking them as other hire companies do is a bit of a con. Lastly, the location is a LONG way from the airport. With a long wait and the distance it mant that we were waiting nearly 2hrs to get into our rental car and so hit all of the Friday rush hour traffic - this is NOT made clear before booking and is somewhat misleading. Overall, considering the quality of the car a solid 7/10. "

" The pricing structure is totally opaque and I strongly suspect that the whole thing is a con. I certainly wasn't prepared to take the risk that it wasn't. I will be telling everyone I know to avoid your company, "
" In the end I walked away from this rental and organised a car with Hertz. The whole experience was terrible. From the moment I got into the car taking me to your office at East Midlands airport, the person who picked me up was trying to sell me insurance and telling me that the insurance I thought came with the car was unsatisfactory. The price I was quoted to reduce my excess was completely ridiculous and the staff didn't seem entirely competent when it came to the online system. In the end, I lost all faith in your company and in your staff. The impression I formed was that if I didn't reduce my excess, your company would likely levy unfair charges on my credit card. As I don't want a predatory company to have access to my money, I decided to take a risk and walk away. "

" Arrived at Stansted 3 hours late due to being stuck on a runway in Dublin, delayed. Rang Easirent as requested to organise shuttle bus. I was asked how many in our group and I confirmed, 5 people. The shuttle that arrived couldn't fit us all in as other parties were waiting too, so we had to leave some of our group behind. Got to Easirent to be informed our car had been given away due to delay. A girl pointed a '2 hour clause' to me on my voucher to confirm this was their right. I asked if the booking had been cancelled to allow us book elsewhere, but apparently the booking stays, the car is given away and we were obliged to take any other car they provide regardless of cost. A Volvo V90 was the only thing available for an additional charge of £96. I asked for a Manager and was met by 'Mario'. I advised that we couldn't ring to tell of our flight delay as we were boarded. He didn't care. He reiterated it was the Volvo, or walk. He advised what the girl had showed me on my voucher had nothing to do with their delay policy, instead this could only be found on their website. The Volvo itself had obviously been in some collision as it was damaged on the passenger side from the front of the car to the passenger door. An extra £96 for a damaged car! I pointed out to him that of the three separate parties being dealt with in his office, all were complaining. His answer was simply to blame flight delays for everyone's treatment. When we dropped our car back the following day there were two other parties complaining! Throughout all this, staff were bickering behind the counter with each other, which I'm not surprised about given the level of customer dissatisfaction they have to deal with. Abysmal service, uncaring staff, poor vehicle quality....not a good combination. "

" My experience with this company was very negative I don't suggest it at all. Here are the reasons: - Very slow pick up. We were supposed to be picked up from the airport at 12pm and to go by their shuttle to the company location.. well we were waiting there 30minutes when the car came but because was very small and there were already a lot of people we had to wait there in the street another 30min so only at 1pm they came to pick us up. At the phone they kept saying 5minutes and we had to stay under the sun in the middle of the street for 1hour!!! I asked if we could wait inside the airport and they could kindly give us a call when they arrive but they simply said no. Later on we found out that they only have one shuttle car so it's likely to be like this every time... not nice at all!!! If I had an appointment I was very likely to be late just because they don't provide a professional service. If it's gonna take 1hour they should inform us before at least!! - I booked online a car that was supposed to be a 5doors manual small vehicle well.. it's not what we received! Without asking us anything the staff provided us a different car: first they asked us if we wanted an automatic car when we said no explaining we booked a manual one the guy try to convince us that the automatic one was the best option! We said no so he was forced to give us a manual one, we felt so strange also because his attitude was not nice at all trying to push another choice. At the end they gave us a huge car a seat Alhambra! I said that I didn't book this kind of vehicle and he just replied that was a free upgrade... I was shocked! They just had that car and we accepted. But the problem are not ending here... - Car had problems! After some miles we saw a yellow light showing up on the screen.. we had to stop at the first petrol station and we found out that the tyres were not properly inflated and that some oil was missing!! So we paid to fix the car but still the light didn't disappear. - At night we decided to call the company to let them know that we had some problems but they were very rude! They said that wasn't their business and that if we were thinking that the vehicle got problems we should call the breakdown emergency number..... so we called and in the next morning they came to check the car. Luckily there were no big problems and we could go on with our journey. - we had another light showing on the screen something saying Add Adblue 1500miles so because we didn't have the car book and any instruction we had to stop to a petrol station again to see what was going on with the car! We called them again and again the staff was so rude, the first thing he said was to call the breakdown emergency number and let them to fix the problem then when I got angry and pushed him to listen he finally understood and said it was normal and we didn't need to do anything.... I was so upset. - When we got to the drop off we had the refound for the oil and no explanation at all we said we were very upset with their service and we were not going to book any car with them anymore. Staff didn't reply and act like he didn't care at all. So I wouldn't recommend this company at all, last time I rented a car with thrifty and the experience was perfect! No delay no problem everything all right. I donno what is wrong with this company, we are in London not in the middle of the jungle and people expect a professional in time service! That's the minimum requirements I think. "

" you guys are fine--but stop working with Easirent, they are scammers "
" When picking up our car, the Easirent staff member told us that we needed supplemental insurance. I asked numerous times whether this was necessary--and all these times he said that it was illegal for me to drive off the lot without purchasing additional insurance. He said this was because I had purchased the rental 'outside of the UK' (not true, but I do have an American accent.) He finally relented when I was about to call Auto Europe to confirm that I needed additional insurance, saying that he had realized he was mistaken and I DID have insurance. I spoke with other people renting, and they reported a similar scam--that the person at the counter insisted they need extra, expensive insurance that they didn't really need. Furthermore, the car was supposed to have a full tank of petrol--it didn't. When I returned the care with a full tank of petrol, Easirent refused to credit us with the additional expenditure. "

" in general was fine, but the excess is very big which puts myself in frustration that they will try to trick me on some damage which I didnt do. the car was not in perfect condition on the outside, scrathes here and there, damage to front bumper, so I had to look for every small issue to put it on the check list.

" Auto Europe will not help with this terrible situation - despite the fact they are agents "
" On March 17 – I paid 187.39 GBP for the rental and entered a contract for a 2 day rental of a vehicle. On June 15 at approx. 6 hours prior to pick up we confirmed that we would be arriving at 10pm ish and were assured because we were travelling with 5 small children that the vehicle would be there. When we arrived at the Gatwick/Crawley Office at 10.20pm we were informed that there was no vehicle – despite the valiant efforts of Clive Gamblin (taking me to the rental vehicle companies to see if anyone had a 9 seater vehicle) no solution was provided and we were told that the office had no discretion to solve the issue for us. We ended up getting a taxi to our hotel – we arrived at 2:30am – which is not easy doing at such a time with a bunch of now screaming tired kids. I had to personally pay the taxi driver 115 GBP We have saved up for a family vacation and this is the first time in 4 years my kids have seen my brother in England. We had plans on Saturday with my brother which involved the rental vehicle. Unfortunately, these plans were ruined because we did not receive a rental vehicle until 2pm. Upon inspection I noted one of the tyres had no hub cap – Coming from the US I did not recognize this to be a spare tyre. I did note that the check engine light was on. On Sunday I drove from London to Bury St Edmunds and back to the London area. Throughout this journey the check engine light continued to be on and the car increasing had warnings concernings the tire pressure. Loud warnings sounded at one instant stating I had a puncture. When I consulted with my brother – he looked and said that I was driving on a spare tire. Spare tires are only supposed to be used up to 50 miles. I certainly do not appreciate Easirent and Auto-Europe putting my family at risk. Breach of service in the first place is bad enough, but then delivering a vehicle that is not even road worthy is worthy of compensation. I returned the vehicle to the nearest Easirent office at Heathrow airport. The staff were astounded that the Gatwick office would deliver a vehicle that was driving on a spare wheel. "

We had to pay extra to upgrade or pay the same to downgrade the car. We upgraded and got a car that was already damaged at the back. I also had to inflate one of the tyres during the rental because there was a warning on the dashboard. The whole experience start to finish was terrible, I will never use Easirent again!

By the time I'd gone back home to get my documents I'd lost my booking and only a more expensive vehicle was available, which I did not want. To be fair the proof of address requirement was shown in small print on the booking voucher itself, but Auto Europe could have done more to make this clearer. The information of what to bring on the email appeared to be a definitive list, but could have stated "Please check the voucher as the rental company may have additional requirements" "

" We booked a 5 seater "Intermediate" size car and were supplied with a renault Cature which I judge is more in the compact category - in any case although there were three seat belts in the back of the car it was too small for three adults to travel any distance. On arrival at Easirent we encountered a customer who had just dropped his car off claiming he had been charged 4 times the amount he expected. £90 Fuel deposit seems excessive as I imagine it would cost no more than £70 to fill the car completely from empty. IT is a way of inducing the customer to select the pre-paid full option (take full and return empty) which always benefits the company. "

I waited for an hour to get the car, there was one guy working and instead of handling each customer he was juggling all customers. When the car came, it was dirty and the left mirror was cracked. The guy how was checking the condition of it tried not to mark it and said it is ok because I bought full coverage insurance. Dropping the car off was as a bad but wasn't efficient either. I had to wait for another guy to come and inspect the car and then waited for the shuttle for 30 minutes. Overall very shady operation, I felt like I was bullied into buying the insurance and the amount I paid for the insurance is excessive, I typically pay 8 to 12 pounds for a daily coverage, 42 felt like a ripoff.

Then we waited 15 minutes for the car to arrive. It had not been washed but it was wet as it was raining. There was only half a tank of fuel. We checked over the car as best as we could. When we returned the car the man checked the fuel then immediately focuses on a chip on the windscreen. 15 minutes went past while he rang his manager, telling us that it was a brand new windscreen when we collected the car. Eventually he agreed that the chip might have been there before we collected the car. He didn't check any other part of the car, the wheels, boot etc. Then we waited 20 minutes for a bus to the airport. "

" I'm not sure how Auto Europe is associated with Easyrent, but everyone at the counter, apart from one person, had a vibe of 'bothered much', specially the last guy that took the car back. Working in a wharehouse "office" also doesn't help convey a professional stance. Hidden fees; besides the price that was given to me online, I was told at the counter that I had to drop an extra payment for insurance purposes, and that the online price was just "paying the wheels", I asked the question multiple times about if I absolutely had to pay that extra (1 out of 3 options), the answer was always yes. I'd recommend being a lot more transparent about those fees with your online booking. To conclude, the staff was efficient, polite enough, and got the job done. But lacks transparency and a proper customer service stance. Felt like walking into a car repair garage. Uninterested, and not bothered. "

" Collection was great and car ideal. However when we went to fill the tank up (expecting to put in £5 at the most as we had done 42 miles) we ended up having to put £15 in the tank. I have the same vehicle but an older version and for £5 I would get 50 miles. This MPG matches that on the internet for Toyota Aygos. Tried expressing our suprise at the cost of refuelling but it was just brushed away by staff. Feel we had to put in £10 too much which put a damper on what was otherwise a good experience. "

" Despite paying for zero excess insurance premium in full when booking through auto europe, I was told that I hadn't and have to pay it again on site. With all the commotion around us with a tired infant and irritable child, I didn't question, and paid and signed everything. I am so disgusted with the whole experience that I don't even want to initiate correspondence for getting that money back; 20-30£ is not worth it. And I am sure if auto europe wants, it can easily verify this. "
" It was the worst holiday experiences of our lives. We'd rather not go on holidays in the future if we cannot afford a decent car rental with good customer service. Booked a Van and a car (car through auto europe) for party of 10 , altogether three families with one who had flown in from the US. Four amongst us had to delay their trip because one of the children was taken poorly on the day of travel to Glasgow from London. The names cars were booked against were such that Dad who wasn't able to travel on the day, was the designated driver for the Van, and I was for the car which was booked through auto europe. We explained the situation that we are 6 in the party now, and that the original driver will do whatever was necessary, online or over the phone, to add me as an additional driver for the Van. But because he was not in the room at the time, we were quoted ~£1100; for the vehicle we had already booked and paid for, albeit under the name of someone who couldn't travel that day. With an infant and a toddler really tired and upset, and the whole holiday at stake, we even entertained that idea for a few mins. Sense prevailed, we booked a taxi and took the car to the hotel. I know one might say that is how businesses are done and the fine print probably stated all that, but honestly, that's where customer service comes in which we now think is more important than saving a few quid on cheap car rental. All in all, the worst experience for all of us involved. My suggestion to everyone from now on will be: Stick to the big names like Thrifty or Europcar. Thrifty saved us the next morning by giving us an excellent deal on an almost brand new 7 seat SUV with infant and child car seats that were really comfortable. "

Needed an extra £84 charged to get the car. (trebling the cost for 2 days rental). Car I booked not available. Had to wait 45 minutes for something of similar size to turn up dirty and not cleaned. Ended up with an automatic, doubling the fuel cost. All in all from Terminal to driving away in the (wrong) car it took me over 90 minutes. Lots of bullshit extras being added. Condition of cars not great. Mine turned up unwashed although they did get it wet. Inside console really dirty with a spilled drink not cleaned up. Car hadn't been hoovered for long enough. Shame really as the staff are doing their best but I've never seen a more inefficient car rental company. How they are still trading I suspect is down to hammering everybody that turns up to rent for an extra 200% charge. "

" There was a young man in.Glasgow called.Jamie he was pleasant. to deal with however sold me insurances totalling a further £11per day assuring.me that this extra would cover any small damage to the car. However on returning the car to Edinburgh the experience was threatening and I felt anxious and vulnerable.The.man who inspected the.car wore his trousers so low slung I was witness to his pale pink underpants and half his bottom as he continually bent over the car so excited that he had found a small mark.I found this obnoxious. Upon finding so at mark he got another member of staff to look at it. This man I found aggressive, that was until he involved another female member of staff who's tone and general demeanor was so full on I almost cried, She was demanding £185 plus £75 admin.fee would not listen to me about how I understood my extra insurance policy, she constantly referred to .e as a third party calling me 'she" and her customer relatikn skills are non existent, she kept interupting .e and saying she didnt care if i missed flight that I had better just pay or else she would tie my reserved fee of £500 on my credit card up for months, I have never experienced such full on aggression before. This happened on Thursday 10th of May around 12.30 /1.00.I of course had to give her an alternative card as at this point I was close to breaking down, she had no concern for my welfare or in listening or explaining to me about this extra insurance at one point she suggested I go back to Glasgow and have the man who sold it to me to explain. Glasgow were pleasant to deal with The staff in Edinburgh I would never like to encounter again. I'm sorry for this. "

Upon contacting your help line I was told that due to the address problem I would recive a full refund, I have still not been reimbursed and I really need the money as had to taxi to Shefield Childrens hoispitial and return which was £120 each way. not only has the car experience been a real pain but it was expensive, if you could arrange a refund as promised that would be a great help.

" Auto Europe are usually excellent however I was a little disappointed that when I phoned to advise that due to a later flight (2.5 hrs later) my collection would be 2.5 hrs later, it took 23 mins for the free phone number to be answered and I was told that it was now too late to advise the hire company. I called the hire company directly (despite them telling me that I have to call the broker) and said I've called the broker, they say it is too late so I'm calling you as a courtesy to say I still want the car, I'm just going to be arriving later than booked. Period. "

" I took on a contract with Auto Europe and this was blatantly not adhered to by Easirent. Plain & simple. I am not letting this go , this is not the end of it by any means. "
" I want to take this opportunity to say how we were totally ripped off at the Easyrent place at Manchester Airport. Having paid AUTORENT in full for our car, on arrival at Easyrent we were told that as we over an hour late ( and on our contract with Autorent it says 2 hrs) that our car had gone. Subsequently we were told that there was only one car left ( scam!) and as it was bigger it would cost us another £ 126.00 ! We had no choice but to pay otherwise we would have been without a car. When we went into the garage there were at least 6-10 cars in the garage. We mentioned the " 2hr"late clause in OUR contract to the woman and she said " Oh, our contract says an hour " And, as our flight number was on the contract they should have known that we were running late, and therefore kept the car for us. Not only that, we phoned Easyrent to collect us from the airport as instructed and it took them half an hour before they arrived to pick us up. so no wonder we were late ! Absolutely disgusted with this blatant rip-off situation. I would welcome the refund of our £ 126.00 over-payment. "

" from waiting half an hour for the transfer bus, then the trying to charge me 80 pounds extra for insurance, coupled with the terrible atmosphere and a portacabin full of angry looking and clearly dissatisfied customers, I decided to cancel my booking there and then. As I waited another half an hour for the bus back, I noticed every single car that was being given to customers was dirty, some had petrol in, some not, and absolutely every customer I witnessed was not at all happy with their experience. I felt very lucky that I at least had a choice to leave. Never ever again with easement. Amateur, rude cowboys! "

" The rental agent was at Leeds Bradford deport is the most rude person I have ever come across in a front office. He has not got the patience to answer customer queries. All he wants is to get the transaction completed and to push for Easirent comprehensive cover so that you end up giving up your own cover repurchased and loss the refund on it as it well be past cancellation time. when his manager walked in and I was still skeeing clarity on my hire conditions, he couldn't give me a chance to have a proper conversation with the deport manager which I feel is rude as well. To my surprise the deport manager did not even offer to have a private conversation with me so he could also hear my queries. So both rental agent and deport manager behaviour was appalling and show they lack the customer services skill to be in a from office "

" I enjoyed having a car. I took a great deal of time getting and returning the car, so from that standpoint, Easirent was not EASY and I would consider renting from an agency at the airport. I think Easirent took advantage of me, either because I had full coverage or because I am a woman from the USA, but I did not like their attitude when I returned minutes after leaving with a flat. They need to work on their customer service. "
" Long wait for bus to rental location. Bus couldn't fit everyone waiting and had to come back. Long wait to get helped to complete paper work. When we finally got the car, tge man said you have full coverage so you he didn't take us aroubd thd car to inspect it (mistake on my part, I should've gone aroubd the car and looked). After getting the car we drove less then a half a mile and realized tire pressure light was on. We returned to rental location immediately, driving less then a mile total. The tire was almost flat. When the rental employees saw it they said it was our fault, we must have driven over a nail or hit a curb. I have had many flat tires in my life and when I have run over a nail th at made the tire flat so fast, you could hear the air hissing out of the tire and if I had hit a curb, we would have known it. They were like since you have full coverage you don't have to worry about it. But they previously explained thay since I got the coverage through you, I would have to pay for the tire and get reimbursed through you. They said that they would get someone to bring a tire and they would change it. I told them I wanted to see the tire they took off because I didn't believe it was my fault We waited over an hour and no tire. We asked our friend from Scotland, who booked our reservation to talk with them. After waiting another 30 minutes a car like the one we rented was returned and they said that they would give us that one. They seemed to take a 180 degree turn in their attitude and they were very apologetic at that point. I am not sure why, it might have been our friend who kept calling and talking with them. We felt that since I had full coverage, they just gave me the car with the flat since they didn't have another automatic to give me until the other car came in. So 2 hours after leaving the first time, we were finally on our way. Returning the car wasn't bad. I did feel that they took a long time going over the car compared to other people. We waited for the bus to the airport for over 20 minutes and finally called a taxi. A couple who was there before us also called a taxi. I am not sure whether I would rent from them again. "

" It was straighforward enough to book the car, and also easy to amend the reservation when required. Although I paid Auto Europe to reduce the excess, I was scammed by the actual car hire company, who convinced me I had to pay them too. "
" First things first: instead of a manual estate/wagon, they gave me an automatic, hybrid petrol/electric, SUV. Secondly, and far more aggravatingly, they convinced me that a) I had to pay them to reduce the excess, despite having already paid Auto Europe to do just that, and b) I could claim the money back from Auto Europe, which, after calling Auto Europe to ask, I can't. Awful company, worst kind of sharp practice, will NOT be using them again. "
" It would be very much better to get the tank full and return full, as with many other companies. This is a plus for you but negative for hirers. "
" I just realise that I was charged twice. First from AE Europe and from Easirent as well. It seems that you are not communicate with your supplier. "
" They also try to tricky with me I order Automatic car they at first they said the price I pay for is for manual only I have to pay higher to get that car I want. Over charge for damages car. Don't use them !!!!! "
" when had some difficulty with the excess as the card was not working at easirent, autoeurope was very poor in responding to alternatives and literally didnt suggest anything "
" easirent are one of the worse pickup centre, worse for service, very unhelpful "
" Instructions on location of rental company were incorrect. Thankfully a friendly bus driver told us where to go. Instructions told us to catch a G1 or G3 bus from Gatwick. Easirent is actually located within the Hilton hotel, which is directly attached to the terminal building. "
" Nice car but took forever to get served on arrival and then had to fill up with fuel as the car was provided with no fuel. Not nice when you are arriving late at night as a female on her own. No warning that this is a standard policy. Would therefore avoid in future. "
" I didn't like the way I had to pre purchase fuel. I have rented cars many a time and this was never part of the deal. I returned the car with half a tank of fuel without any refund. I also didn't like that there was 1250 pounds on my card even though I had paid the extra fee to avoid the excess. "
" Had to pay £60 for insurance as I don't have a credit card, "
" Couldn't see out of windows due to glass covered in smoke. Had to stop at service station to wash windows . Usually when I hire a car it's spotless, this car I hired hadn't been cleaned in weeks. "
" I am not sure of the Auto Europe / Ezi Rent distinction here so assume the car was provided by Auto Europe and brokerage service from Ezi Rent. Car provided was fantastic and took us around England no problem at all. "
" With the Ezi Rent brokerage, I am utterly dissatisfied with the disgraceful approach to business in the fuel allocation process. The Ezi Rent Hire Terms (online) advise that for rentals greater than 3d the vehicle will have a 1/4 charged locally, the Terms once payment completed is silent on the issue. In either case, Ezi Rent would not provide me my vehicle unless I paid their extortionary fuel charge of GBP30 for half tank or GBP55 for full tank. This information was presented to me by the Ezi Rent representative scribbling it on a piece of paper and handing to me to inform of the rates. This mis representation of terms and poor business practice is unacceptable. All other hire companies provide a full tank and vehicle returned full. "

" "You get what you pay for". I opted for a cheap service and that is what I got. Next time I will hire from a reputable hire company. "
" I paid for additional insurance which (I thought) would negate the £1,250 excess. I was wrong. As I didn't have the capacity on my credit card I had to pay almost double the original rental quote just to reduce the excess to £500. "
" Disorganised. Long wait for the car in spite of checking the booking and availability well before. Other customers at the office seem to experience the same dissatisfaction. "
" Picked up at Heathrow. We ended up with a smaller car than the one booked as the ones in the category we booked couldn't accommodate our luggage (booked Group VW Passat or similar, but only ones available were a Skoda Jeti or an MG, neither with a boot big enough). When we arrived another customer had a lot of trouble returning his vehicle and personnel didn't look enspiring. Although on returning car to Gatwick staff appeared more friendly and helpful. "
" I emailed separately to you the day i dropped the car off. This company is a disaster... 1 I waited 2 hours to get a car 2 First car had a electrical malfunction on the breaks 3 Car was dirty inside 4 I got conned into purchasing 1/2 tank of fuel which was only 1/3 at best when i got the car 5 I was bullied into purchasing extra insurance or be charged an extra 1500 pound on the spot for excess... In all i would drop this company as it is not good for your reputation. "
" Very unhelpful, edging on rude staff. "
" When we picked up car the agent tried to charge us for a zero charge to credit card without telling us it would cost an extra £60 she was very unpleasant when we questioned her about this. "
" The most awful hire car experience ever, will never use you again. First I was told by you to catch a bus, waited half an hour after a very early morning flight only to be told by bus driver that the service to the car hire office ceased 6 months ago. Then found that the addition 30 odd you charged me was not insurance cover per se. Then on my return was told if I was late I would be charged 30 pounds extra per hour! All totally money grabbing and unacceptable compared to other companies!!! WILL NEVER EVER USE YOU OR RECOMMEND YOU. "
" Easirent were apologetic when I complained bitterly but they were not to blame. Polite courteous staff that couldnt do enough for me after my dismay at not being able to find their offices due to not having correct directions to get to their office doe to AUTO Europe. "
" When we went to hire the car they Lady there charges us 30 pounds for fuel on our debit card , but then a man took the car to put fuel in , only to return saying the garage did not have much fuel so he only put 10 pounds in and the othe 20 pounds would now be frefunded back to our card , we are still waiting for this refund ,but also we then had to put fuel in our selves on the motorway at a very high price. PLEASE SORT OUT REFUND ASAP thanks "

" Worst experience imaginable. made me wait for 90 mins because they had not received the vouchter from auto europe. i had to personally follow up. then on the return they found minor scratched on the hub cap and charged me £500. will be taking this up with the correct authorities as it was extortion. extremely rude staff. "
" The company I was quoted for being the cheapest price (easirent) probably worked out to be the most expensive due to all the hidden expenses that you aren't made aware of until after the purchase.i would never use Auto Europe again and if ever I'm in the position where anyone asks for a recommendation I'll warn them of Auto Europe and strongly advise that they never use their services. And I still don't know what that £2.50 per day 'insurance' payment was for seeing easement charged me a mandatory £12 per day to reduce the excess to what my credit card allows. "
" Shocking service. So many hidden expenses that are included in the small print that you aren't made aware of until after the purchase has been made. The cost of my rental nearly trebled. I would strongly recommend no one ever use Easirent. The teller was taking personal phone calls as he was serving me. Supposed to collect the car at 10am but never got away with it until after 11. "
" The directions to the collection point were totally wrong. It was only due a kind passer by that we found the right place. "
" Ditto above re the directions and the car was not ready at the time booked. This made me late for an appointment. The car was not checked for damage upon return which I was unhappy about. "
" The worst car hire com pay I have had EVER experienced. I usually use Enterprise who always call me 24 hours before my car is due to be picked up, due to personal issues I got the days mixed up and turned up a day late. No one had bothered to call me all day to see if i wanted the car. Then when I turn up to collect it they wouldn't give it to me because i dont own a credit card, but I had 3 debit cards they couple have used. Piss poor service, no apology and 3 times trying to get a refund (They said I would get one) and they gave me a number for head office but they never answer the phone. Attrocius company, useless, no regard for their customers whatsoever. I own a magazine in Liverpool, certainly won't be recommending you "
" answer your phone communicate with you customers refund me "
" very easy to use. "
" A bit more information about how to get to the counter once in the airport, how far it is from the terminal (10min away) and the shuttle timetable (every 20min) would be great. Apart from that, the staff was very helpful and friendly and the pick up and drop off were quick and trouble free "
" The booking confirmation has a very clear area on the first page in which exceptions or notable information should be placed. Instead, the need for me to take two extra documents confirming my address was hidden amongst small print resulting in me incurring more than the cost of hire in completely unnecessary additional insurance. "
" Car not clean prior to hire . No explanation given regarding push bottom to start / stop car , had to return to reception to ask . Lot of panel damage and scrapes on the car supplied. "
" No directions to find Easirent reception . Had to continually ask airport staff for directions , but I would know where they are situated next time . "
" Booking was easy. I would have appreciated more information. Especially that the shuttle ride to the car rental was quite far "
" My flight was a few minutes late and the bus stop for the shuttle was not indicated clearly on instruction. Hence I lost bus and was to arrive after 10pm. I had to bribe with cash the attendant in order to pick up the car. "
" I have been a regular customer of Auto Europe for several years. This is the first time I have had any problems with a rental car booked through Auto Europe. "
" EasiRent refused to provide me with a vehicle, despite the fact that I had in my possession A fully valid British passport, fully valid UK Driving licence, card and counterpart paper version, several valid and in date credit and debit cards. Easirent were operating from a local hotel reception area. The area was congested with people who were trying to obtain a vehicle. Eventually we were requested to move into the hotel waiting area, and informed that a member of staff would come to collect us. An hour later we were still waiting. The above situation was totally inadequate and not fit for purpose. The staff of Easirent were unhelpful and unpleasant throughout. The following day I returned to Glasgow Airport and hired a car from Europe Car "
" I had to wait a while for the agent to arrive, but I was equally late arriving. Also, perhaps not at the fault of the company, but the vehicle I was provided with didn't have functioning electric mirror, the air conditioning gas was out and the front wheels weren't appropriately balanced, but this could only have been known if the vehicle was being physically driven. Despite the excess refund with Auto Europe, I paid an extra £26 for a zero excess damage waiver. Aside from this, it was good. "
" I was not sent the full rental voucher, so I didn't even know which rental company we were using until I landed and found some helpful airport staff. Once I figured that out, the rental company 'Easirent' decided they wouldn't accept cash or foreign credit cards to pay the additional daily fees they said we owed - of which there was no mention on the website or in the booking voucher I received. It ended up being far more expensive than promised. I am very disappointed. "
" First they tell us we owe additional daily rates (of which there was no prior mention in any of the documentation), then they won't accept cash or foreign credit cards to pay it. very disappointed "
" Arrived at luton expecting rental to be near airport. Directions were to get on Airways bus but no mention of which bus stop...we asked around and were told to stand at stop 1(should have been no 12).Eventually got to stance 12 and waited...and waited for bus. Time was now 9.20 and no bus had appeared. Phoned number on our booking document (Easirent) and were told office closes at 9.30pm and bus was nothing to do with car hire firm?? Begged lady to stay open for us which thankfully she did. Bus eventually arrived but driver told us that he wasn't going to any car hire place but to an airport car parking area. After 25 minutes we arrived and found easirent office.The whole experience was chaotic! "
" As explained above we had to beg member of staff to stay open for us due to the fact that the rental was miles from airport and required a bus transfer which took 20 minutes to arrive and 25 mins travel time.Lady kindly stayed open for us. Car was fine once we eventually got it! "
" I have used Auto Europe a few times and had great experiences, however on this occasion you gave me incorrect instructions on how to collect my car. I wasted 45 minutes trying to locate there office, and finally a bus driver told me where i could find it. Easi rent once I found them were appalling and you should not be representing them, see below. The car was not in the same category that I paid for, it was so dirty i made the person showing me round indicate scratches on every panel as it was too dirty to tell. And empty of fuel, I have the rental sheet to prove this I would have previously recommended and continued using AE, but after the hassle yesterday its unlikely i will. "
" Easi rent were hopelessly unorganised understaffed and the worst quality rental company i have ever used! it took 30 minutes to get the car, The car was not in the same category that I paid for, and it was so dirty i made the person showing me round indicate scratches on every panel as it was too dirty to tell wether it was scratched or not! And to top it all off empty of fuel, I have the rental sheet to prove both these points. "
" Shame the woman on the Easy Rent reception was so rude. She was rude about the cheap price of your excess insurance and wished me good luck (very sarcastic) dealing with you if any refund was needed on this. She was unhelpful as I had booked a cheaper deal through you as opposed to her higher prices direct and made this known. Car was great, charged 45 GBP for a full tank of petrol, not the 30 you quoted. I will definately use you again. Thank you "

" The deposit and hidden charges should be mentioned earlier. Its not as what they say online they charged me deposit of 1250 when i rented a car. "

No proper customer services and they charged 1250 from credit card which was not informed earlier, if in case i didnt had a credit card with that much limit would have been declined without a car. "
" Even we have added excess while booking online but they have asked to pay additional 1250 or 22 pounds per day. We took 3 cars we have paid 3750 to take the car. On top they have asked to return the car fuel tank as empty. While giving they have charge 30 pounds for each car for 1/4 of tank. Totally dissatisfied. "

" Wasn't made clear that 2 utility bills were required to rent the vehicle. The advice about this was contained in a large passage of text and not highlighted in any way. "
" Staff were extremely rude. On checking the vehicle out, they failed to notice a scuff on the alloy and a cut in the tyre. They tried to charge us for this damage, however when they looked up the previous check out notes, they realised the damage had been there already and the car should not have been released in the first place. "
" When you have to choose one from 10-12 other companies on the market it means you agree with the conditions you have at first sight when you have seen the website( prices, extra insurances, guaranties, type of the car). When arrived you have found that : the car is not the brand you have expected, extra taxes hidden carefully when you do the booking. It is not fair at all. I have paid for a car before seeing " the new" conditions on site and the brand of my car was unacceptable for me. Guarantee taken was not mentioned on the website; taken in a blink of an eye and probably is going to come back in my credit card after more than one week. Not fair at all. "
" For future : 1. Please let us know all your requirements regarding the amount we need to pay and do not ever come with hidden things. 2. Please provide what you promised when booking was accepted. 3. If a guarantee has been accepted by both sides give me my money back exactly in the same period of time you need when taken. Do not use my money for your needs. I do not care about a bank: I signed an agreement with a rental car company: as long as they were able to take in a blink of an eye 500 pounds from my account, when the car was back and the conditions accepted by the rentals I need my money back in my account in the same blink of an eye. Fair or not? "
" If you are looking for a cheap car rental, don't use this firm. They are a false economy, given that they rip you off when you return the car. Fortunately, I retained evidence in the form of photos of the car before we went out in it and they have deducted funds from my credit card for damage which had already occurred to the vehicle prior to our collection of it. I will be pursuing this matter. "
" Not clear on booking that site was so far from airport "
" Venue was bus ride from airport (not clear when booking), car had empty petrol tank, return instructions were far from clear and there was no signage, making for stressful return (and when I commented on this was told I should've paid attention to where I'd picked it up from) plus i observed staff being rude to other customers on both pickup and drop off (client at pickup episode was clearly a nightmare, but still...) "
" Excellent I have already passed on your details to friends and business associates "
" Excellent I have already passed on details to friends and business associates "
" All worked well your end and cost reasonable. Not impressed with hire company though "
" Car ok and people pleasant. But fuel policy - "like for like" makes it impossible not to pay too much. They also pushed hard for insurance excess cover which was more expensive than car hire and said (wrongly) that this was not covered in price paid to Auto Europe. Location not great either - on periphery of airport "
" good choice of car "
" Had to wait 25 minutes outside Manchester airport before I got picked up. "
" Good car, value for money. Very helpful. "
" Very helpful and friendly staff. They made picking up a car very easy after a long and tiering journey on the plane. "
" Had to ring back to confirm booking with Auto Europe. However when speaking to staff they are very helpful. "
" Very good service. Car very good too. "
" The website is easy to manoeuvre and easy to make bookings. "
" The staff at EASIRENT is helpful and explained clearly. Condition of the car is also very good. However, when I had some difficulty picking up my car from Heathrow Airport. The directions were not clear. The airport staff also had difficulty helping us find the location for Easirent. A bit of a fright but thereafter it has been smooth sailing. "
" Well done. "
" My family and I were very pleased with Easirent service. I shall be happy to pass on favorable comments to friends & associates. Thank you & I look forward to hiring with you again. "
" everything went as planned "
" great service "
" The car rental location was significantly far away from the airport, which was not acceptable to us. In addition, we would have preferred that a smaller vehicle have been available. "
" Other than the remote location and the selection of vehicles available, we were satisfied with the experience. "
" Auto Europe is fine, but Easi Rent was too far from the airport. "
" Too far from airport. "
" I have used auto Europe several times before without any problems and always go back to them but I'm dubious about using them again after our experience with easirent. I don't think that auto Europe should be using this company. "
" the appearance of the car was totally unacceptable.the car we were given had large dents and scrape marks along one side and several other noticeable marks and scratches elsewhere. when we asked if we could have another car we were told that there weren't any of that class available and that we would have to upgrade at an extra charge. why at an extra charge when they couldn't supply what was ordered ? in the end we were offered an upgrade on our next rental.no use to us,we won't be using them again. we noticed that the fuel gauge was low considering there should have been £30 fuel in it. this was confirmed when we filled up later getting almost a full tank for £40. later during our trip we noticed that a tyre had no tread on one edge "
" I have had a few cars from you, and the cars and prices have always been very good. I shall continue to use Auto Europe. "
" staff were excellent, and the car was very good, but the car is supplied with 1/2 tank of fuel for which they charge £30, and you can return it empty, this is not possible so I lose out. I prefer a full tank and then return it full. "
" Didn't realise that the car would be off site and required a bus journey in a parking lot marked bus to collect "
" Helpful staff member Tom at Glasgow depot, not his fault that the depot is in a difficult position to find "
" very helpful and friendly guys would definitley use you again good rate,excellent service got upgraded free "
" My only problem was very small but important as I needed to use my G.P.S but the U.S.B port in the car did not function and I had to buy a U.S.B connector that worked from the cigarette lighter. I appreciate that this is very difficult to identify unless reported to the company and this I have now done so the next driver of the car should not have a problem if they need to use that particular U.S.B. Your staff were very helpful and professional I would use your service again without hesitation "
