About GREEN MOTION:4.7/10
Waited almost 3 hours for car collection.
Very difficult customer service staff, and very strange document outlining vehicle damage and possible damage to underside of car bumper: all of which would be chargeable up to £1250
Ordered a transit van but given a Toyota Proace - significantly smaller and almost not fit for the purpose I hired for.
Counter agent demanded I fill out a positive review of his service before giving me the van keys… only then to give me keys for a significantly smaller van than I ordered. Not impressed.
Arrived at 11 PM. It was cold and raining in Edinburgh; only two staff members were working, and they were slow and had an average attitude. I had read about others’ experiences beforehand, so I came prepared with a China Merchants Bank Platinum International Card, embossed, Visa-only, no UnionPay mark. But when picking up the car, they said the card couldn't be used for the deposit; I had to purchase full insurance on the spot to get the car. The insurance payment went through, and they explained that transactions and deposits go through different channels. They didn’t accept cash deposits, and I couldn’t cancel the order at that point, so I ended up paying £600+ for insurance. I saw other Europeans having the same issue when picking up their cars, so it felt like the company makes money off these insurance fees. I’ve never experienced such a scam in other countries. Warning other travelers not to fall for this.

in 2023 they should accept American Express. People want to use AmEx for the car insurance benefit, for them to not accept it makes it seem like it is deliberate to make you more inclined to purchase their overprices options.

Love Qeeq, price monitoring and rebooking is amazing, insurance is pretty cleat.
The waiting time and handling documents takes very long. Counter was understaffed. Also the creditcard deposit is very high for such a small car and the refund takes a long time. This huge amount is blokking my creditcard for to many day's
