1. The reception told me that a petrol version car could only go 200 miles on a full tank, whereas a diesel one could go 500 miles. They persuaded me to upgrade to diesel for 60 Euros. When I got to the parking lot, the staff handed me a beat-up 9-seater Volkswagen diesel. I said I had chosen a Mercedes, but they told me that was the only car available in the same class. I was scammed out of 60 Euros. The fuel cap of this car was broken, and it wouldn't close properly. Throughout my trip, many kind locals tried to warn me in various ways, including making me pull over on the highway. 2. Upon returning the car, I was told that I would be charged extra for exceeding 100 miles per day, which was not mentioned during the rental process. Luckily, I had a Chinese friend from the UK with me, and the staff waived the fee.
Queued for nearly half an hour. They strongly pushed insurance on us. Since it was our first time driving in the UK, we were a bit worried, so we ended up paying more than three times the price for it... Later, we realized it was completely unnecessary, as UK drivers are very courteous. Just be careful and you really don't need the insurance.
My rental company was Green Motion, not Carnect. The car was good, a Korean make. I originally booked a Volkswagen Golf, but they gave me the Korean car instead. This car might be more advanced than the Volkswagen Golf, making it easier to drive and more comfortable to ride in. Many roads in the UK are narrow, and its lane departure warning system was very useful for those of us not used to driving on the left. Additionally, Green Motion's pick-up and drop-off procedures were convenient, and the staff's service attitude was good.
“Great experience but ask the right questions and check the small print. As with all life!!!”
About GREEN MOTION:8.7/10
We were running late and needed to contact Green motion. They did not answer their phone or respond to emails. In the end we were able to contact Easyrent cars and both Lisa and Tania were amazing. I suggest you get additional staff to answer the phone to avoid unnecessary anxiety of there are mishaps with collection. When we did arrive, the staff at Greemotion were amazing, and there is no way they could have answered the phone as they were way too busy.
“Insurance coverage is unclear and you generally feel ripped off by easyrentcars and green motion”
About GREEN MOTION:6.7/10
