TENERIFE CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Bought additional insurance at the rental location. The insurance bought on the rental platform was not recognized.

Horrible, never again. I was pushed into purchasing an insurance worth several hundred euros because I was a female traveling alone-- the gentleman next to me picked up his car without insurance no problems.

Very bad experience when contacting the counter at the airport. The couple in front of me had the same experience. The woman at the counter even tried to stop us talking to eachother. My papers said: Amount payable at pickup 0€. They charged me, with an unfriendly attitude, extra 28€ in local taxes (they said). They then want me to get an extra inssurance at 190€ (the carrental was 70€ for 1 week). When i said no, they want me to sign some very small written letters legal papers saying i was resposible for everything and the chaged med 1400€ on my credit card. When i recieved my "Alpha Romeo" i thought i had rented i recieved a very bashed VW Golf with very low engine power. It took me some while to inspect the car because it had so many bashes. I found two new ones wich had not been recorded. On my holliday I dreamed of how i would come back and they would find something i missed and then charge me MAX. I considered not using the car on the trip or rent another one because it was too risky to use it. A very bad experience. Everything went well though, but i can still sweat thinking of the bill if i had made even the smallest mistake in the trafic.

I got the car at night, without inspection damage. The next morning I saw a lot of damages on the car. Bit not all damages were indicated in the contract. So I took a photo of all the damages.

The rental company charge me at the desk extra fee for a full fuel tank. I don't know why because I booked fuel option full and pay in advance. So I pay for this option twice.

Definitely exceeded my expectations,I got an upgrade to a CABRIO VW BEETLE as they had no mini,s,the desk staff were very professional and helpful .

Lamentable atención de uno de los empleados de recepción, cuyas agresivas técnicas de persuasión comercial para vender un nuevo seguro de todo riesgo (ya disponía de ese servicio contratado), provocó la disconformidad y reproche incluso de otros clientes que aguardaban su turno para recepcionar otro vehículo. Sin embargo, la atención recibida por el personal que debía entregar y recepcionar el vehículo en la devolución fue completamente distinta, muy atentos, mostrándose muy atentos e informándonos cordialmente de todas las dudas que les planteamos.

Muy buena experiencia

Car had a number of marks on it despite it having been recorded as having no marks on it upon collection of the vehicle. We chose this firm for the full to full fuel policy which we followed, but hidden in the terms and conditions was a 19 euro fuel policy automatic fee. This is always charged regardless of you bringing the car back full of fuel. You may as well just add that to the original booking fee. It’s sad that we still have to battle hidden charges in this day and age.

No issues. Great service.

The only criticism I have is the car lacked power/ under preformed for its size.

Very good value

Car was fine. Very disappointed about the extra charge.

The car was lovely - felt like new and very comfortable. It was equipped to a very high standard which was a nice surprise.

Booking was easy and smooth, received great price as well. Recommended.

The car exceed my expectation. The booking process at the counter was easy. Just need clear sign where to get the pick up area at the airport because the representative waited at 2nd basement. It took a while to ask around.

The full insurance recommendation was a very good deal. The rental rate was very good.

CAr was good, the issue is the deposit and the returned documents are not clear. I beleive all was good with my return but until I receive my deposit backI am not sure!

There were a lot of hidden costs that we were not informed about upfront, including a mandatory €1000 deposit if we didn't pay out for the extra insurance cover, and a €102 fuel deposit (which is more fuel than will even fit in a Fiat 500). Staff also didn't tell us about these costs in one go, even when directly asked 'what is the total we will have to pay'. This created a really negative experience for us and impacted on a lot of our holiday plans. It seemed like this was intentional, a way of forcing people into paying money without giving them the full information in advance, and it felt like we were being scammed. It was also contrary to the information that we received from our broker, Easyrentcars.com, which advised that we could be charged a maximum deposit of up to the equivalent of $500, meaning that we were missold this car hire deal. In future I will avoid Interrent and recommend that others do also.

Habiamos reservado un Fortwo, al llegar nos lo cambiaron por un Hyundai I10 y al final nos entregaron un Fiat 500 con 50.000 Kms. Nos hicieron firmar una fianzade 1.209 euros que ya nos han devuelto y otrocargo de10,80 euros en concepto de upgrade y cargo de oficina mas impuestos, cosa que no se nos habia advertido en ningun momento.

They asked for too much bail, I had to pay more than agreed I was charged for cleaning the car. Never happened!!!!

Id like to have my refund because I didn’t take the car, The receptionist came up with lots of fees and also he ask me for £1.000 for deposit, but online the info was totally different ($300 to $500). I paid for extra insurance and he was asking again for more payments!

It was okay, but the rental counter staff's English on this island was really poor. Due to the time zone difference, we had to wait over an hour to pick up the car. We eventually chose a better model recommended by the staff, which cost an extra 25 euros. They then suggested we buy higher insurance, and since we declined, they asked for an 800 euro deposit. In the end, we decided to just buy the insurance for an additional 75 euros.

Great service, the employee was very friendly and helpful

All good, happy with your service :)

Our pick-up and drop-off was made seamless by the lovely staff person from Surprise.
