They charged me for damages that didn't happen when I had already contracted insurance and been told by the agent that no additional charges would be added to my account.

It was terrible. We were not able to pick up the car because they closed before our pickup time. Why did Kayak book our reservation when the pickup time I specified was AFTER their closing time?

Like having a known company. Have rented from other companies where I had to go to some little office well off site. Hertz rental location was easy to find, clean and well staffed. I knew that I could return the car after office hours and find someone there to return the car to. Their choice of car options was also important. Finally they offered a generous mileage allowance - 700 miles for 7 days.

Did not realise that booking through Kayak meant no insurance whatsoever. This doubled the cost! No contact from Hertz prior to pick up. Sketchy information about what was covered. Nil paperwork bar a receipt.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We had a problem with the vehicle having a faulty tire on the way back to the Budget shop and had to deal with a flat. The roadside service representative informed us that the tire tread was too low, and that the tire tread was pulling away from the tire on the inside - and was highly likely in that poor condition when we first picked up the vehicle. As a result, I would suggest that Budget make closer safety inspections of their vehicles. This was an incredible imposition, and could have been an extremely dangerous outcome if we had not stopped when we had.
The staff member at reception was really helpful, friendly and efficient. Excellent service. I think his name was Adam on duty at around 6.15 pmon Saturday 25/1.

Check in and out we’re easy and staff was friendly. We were given an “upgrade” from the car we ordered and ended up wishing we’d just gotten the car we ordered since the “upgrade” was much bigger and harder to drive. Additionally, after our drop off in Glasgow, they charged us a large “refueling” fee even though we left the gas tank almost full. So dishonest.

I was quoted a price and paid in full but when I arrived I was made to pay more than the original booking in insurance which I was under the impression was included , this should be made very clear at the time of booking as this spoilt my trip.

On our way to drop off the in-car satnav took us the wrong way On our pick up on Saturday morning the guy was all by himself and very busy. It took a bit longer than expected but it totally wasn’t his fault
Super easy pick up and drop off. Very friendly staff. Difficult to find the office and if someone is dropping you off be aware that the Regus carpark is not free and has cameras as you go in.

Liked the car but didn’t realize it came with only 100 miles/day. So I had to upgrade which doubled the price. Took over an hour to find the bus and get to their off airport site. Two hour waiting in a queue with just one person checking everyone in. Felt so bad for couple in front of me who were going to miss their cruise do to horrible delay. On return the bus only came once an hour to return to Terminal 5! Never renting from them again!

On pick up we found scrapes on the car that weren’t marked on the paperwork so got them to correct it. Agreement was for 100 miles per day this was changed to just 71 miles. Very disappointed. Checking the car back in was very quick and trouble free.

How can a car rental charge UKP 1400 extra for compulsory insurance???? It doesn’t cost that much to insure my own car for a whole year or two or even three years. Disgusting.
We got run flat twice and had to call AA service 3 times on the road during our 3 days trip. It was horrible service ever because AVIS didn't maintain rental car properly. The service was overdue and the alert has been on during the trip

We waited forever for a shuttle bus and when it turned up, it had room for 2 people. There were about 8 people in front of us and 7 in our party with 3 little kids. We'd just got off an 8hr overnight flight and the kids were cranky. The party in front of us let us go before them on the 3rd shuttle to show up, but that could only fit 3 people. It took forever to get our whole group to the actual Avis location, over several shuttle busses. The desk was really busy and my pre-booking took forever to process. Not the slickest operation, but the car was new & clean and ready for us. Price was ok, vehicle great, process poor.

Excessive overcharging. Additional charges for location pick up, spurious taxes and 3 times normal fuel charges. I would not use them again at Gatwick airport.
