About Easirent:2.0/10
Waited an hour for them to collect me. They gave me a car that was damaged on every panel then charged me £375 for two microscopic marks that they did not record when I picked the car up - scammed me because I did not take their premium insurance at £38 per day. Held me to ransom. Collection took a total of 2.5 hours because their software is faulty and rejects credit cards but takes them on another machine they have. I could go on......
“The experience terrible and I was told if I did not take out the insurance I could’nt even get a car”
About Easirent:4.3/10
My family are standing on the bus shelter for about 45 minutes. The company did not have a vehicle big enough to take the two adults and four small children. After waiting to get the car I was told I had to have insurance otherwise I was not going to get a car. I have hired cars from all around the world this is not the case. I explained I had an insurance policy that didn’t seem to matter despite showing him my certificate. The car had a great big dent in the side of it. Fortunately I took photos of the car before I collected it. The representative Aaron told me it doesn’t matter because I have insurance. I explained to him the dent already. He was not interested as I had insurance. There was one member of staff trying to run a business give lifts and answer the telephone. Absolutely terrible.
Extremely pushy on upselling insurance. I do a lot of driving and hire a lot of cars yet even I was beginning to question whether I might need extra insurance. It was not a pleasant experience and other people less confident or who couldn’t afford the excess would have been scared into buying it and increasing the cost to five times the original price! I would rather pay more to one of the “big” companies who accept ‘no’ to do I want extra insurance and not worry about the car the whole time I had it. I was told that it would be, I think around the £100 mark plus £75 for every stone chip... I was visiting friends for an enjoyable weekend not having to worry about the state of the roads, the road to the pick up place is a joke! Not again. Not for me thank you.
“dreadful, misleading & costly. Forced to buy insurance at counter £25per day, car was a disgrace”
About Easirent:3.0/10
Told by counter staff that my prepurchased excess insurance was null and void, Forced to buy insurance over the counter with Aaron stating that I would be liable for a £40k car, and any damage that was not reporterldnto the police and had a report... the insurance doubled the overall rental cost.
Next, when being shown to the car assigned, it was not roadworthy, engine warning light & oil service and inspection light were showing on dash. Car was filthy both inside and out, not prepared or ready for collection in any way shape or form, so given all the warnings that Aaron had highlighted to me I point blank refused to accept this car. I was then offered a lesser model at a discount of 95pence! This car was 1500 miles away from needing a full service, it had not been cleaned, the staff member (Aaron) did try to sort this out, hoovering the inside and topping up the wiper reservoir with water (even though the conditions were sub zero temperature!) he also topped up the oil. The collection took over 1.5 hours and I left feeling angry, ripped off and not at all satusfied with my experience. It also caused me to be late picking up my guests from the airport. I’m not at all happy with any aspect of the rental from arrival at easirent to return of vehicle to them.
