When we arrived at the store, they tried to upsell us insurance, claiming it would cover any scratches. Considering the good road conditions, we decided not to buy it. At return, they said everything was fine, but later we received a damage report for a scratch that was already there when we picked up the car. We mentioned it to them at pickup, but they dismissively told us to just take photos ourselves. They did not inspect the car at return, and only later claimed there was a scratch. It seems that if previous renters had bought the insurance, those scratches would have been ignored, but if future renters don’t buy it, they end up being held responsible. The car rental company has no record of scratches and relies entirely on renters to document them. It’s essential to document any issues, but the car rental company's honesty and factual reporting are crucial.
Few people, no queues, and it's close to the airport. There's a dedicated driver for pickup and drop-off, but you need to call them. The insurance fees are extremely expensive, significantly higher than typical rental companies, even exceeding the car rental cost. Suitable for experienced drivers who don't need insurance.
This company is incredibly frustrating. They couldn't provide a car and blamed the agent. When we had a three-way call with the agent, they admitted it was due to overbooking on their part. Their attitude was disgusting and they didn't even apologize. This is the worst car rental company ever.
Small company with affordable prices. The store is located inside the Sheraton Skyline Hotel, without a signboard. You can take a free bus from Heathrow Terminals 1, 2, and 3 bus station to get there. Upon returning the car, they provided a ride to the departure terminal, and the service was pretty good. I had reserved a Ford Mondeo estate but got a Toyota AUIS hybrid instead. Although it's slightly smaller than the Mondeo, it was still sufficient. The mileage was 3000 miles on the odometer, so it was a very new car. I opted for the prepaid full tank option, which cost over 86 pounds. It turned out to be a rip-off because even running the tank empty only required a refill of 45 pounds. I strongly advise against getting the prepaid full tank option. I accidentally scratched the left front wheel and the wheel rim during roadside parking. They said it needed to be replaced when I returned the car, and I was charged 420 pounds including service fees and taxes. Fortunately, I had purchased the supplementary full insurance recommended by QEEQ in China, and I was fully reimbursed. I highly recommend this as it's much more cost-effective than buying full insurance abroad.
