La mauvaise surprise à l'annonce du montant de la caution prélevée sur le compte bancaire : 2490 € !!! Alors que le plafond international de prélèvement d'une carte visa est de 2400€;;;cherchez l'erreur!
Au comptoir un dimanche midi face à une personne qui refuse de parler un minimum anglais et qui vous propose comme seule solution le paiement de leur assurance magique qui permet de baisser considérablement le prix de la caution à 400€.
Le prix de départ de 44,90 € imbattable s'est transformé à 190€ ce qui pour le coup faisait cher pour les prestations offertes (obligation de prendre une navette pour prendre la voiture)!!
Le budget vacances s'est vu fortement réduit!

Plate forme fluide, et facile d'utilisation qui propose des prix imbattables.
Getting to the pick up location was difficult. We had specified that we wanted a car that was at the airport, not offsite. This was disappointing and added an hour to the pick up time. There were not many signs, and only a small shuttle from the airport which meant a long wait. Once there, there was many additional costs that were not outlined in the original rental. Including a €35 fee for late pick up, which was really the company’s fault for taking so long to shuttle all the customers. Staff at the check in desk were rude, and short tempered when we asked them to repeat the details of the overage charges. They must understand in their line of work there will be a language barrier. The car itself was great, but would never rent from this company again. It ended up being just as much if not more than renting from a nicer company in the airport terminal, and not worth wasting time with rude staff and lugging bags across the airport.
The car was new but the gear box had been clearly ragged about and reverse was easy to slip in to, few marks and scuffs but generally a good, large estate. The baby child seat that we paid over €50 for the week was useless. It was not secure using seatbelts and it was well used, it had no isofix base. The shuttle on collection did not have a car seat either and my baby had to sit on my knee. The pick up process was slow and painful. On both occasions (pick up and drop off) I heard many complaints about extra charges. We were also charged extra as the credit card was in my partner’s name and we had to add her as a driver, even though the t&c’s said if the cc was in the name of someone else, further ID may be required.
Overall I think I will pay more in the future for collection at the airport, Surprice clearly need more staff and a smoother more streamlined pick up process.

Booking was very easy. Cancellation and price watch was simple and beneficial. I will use easyrentcars.com again
“Disappointing service in light of a breakdown (of a new car!)”
About SURPRICE RENT A CAR:4.7/10
Hired a Seat Ibiza or similar - received a Toyota Yaris, which is more of a budget model than I would have expected. The car was brand new though so that was a plus.
Initial pickup was fine, but car was experiencing major faults when idling - twice the engine fully cutting out at busy roundabouts. Decided car was not fit to drive so once we finally got the car going again we drove back to the pickup point. Service centre were very quick to identify a loose battery connection, and also told us (then!) as to a trick with the Yaris that needs a double-pump of the clutch.
Can't fault the service staff, as quickly resolved the issue. Annoying not to be told about the clutch particular though, as that should have been mentioned at collection of the car.
Car was ok for the rest of the trip.
Most annoying part has been communication with the head office since, where I have asked for some compensation to cover fuel and road tolls we incurred as a result of going back to the collection point to have the car fixed. Very little understanding and no empathy whatsoever.
Really disappointed with this and won't recommend this company as a result.
Great car, price and service. The bad reviews on here are from people who didn’t do their research up front. If you don’t buy Surprice insurance, they will require a hold of a couple thousand euros on your credit card. They will charge extra for “off-hours” pickup/drop. Understand these conditions and you won’t find a better deal in Faro.
