Terrible

We were happy with our hire car but did feel surprised to find out about the £1500 deposit payment which although was on the fine print did still come as a surprise.

Waited for a long time because the car was not on the system at the desk despite me having an email confirmation. Not even sure who the car was supplied by - Rhodium, Ace or Gold Cars? Waited for an hour for this to be rectified with a preganant girlfriend. Lady at the pick up desk was rude and unhelpful, I was told I was 'lucky you dont have to wait longer'. Aggressive attempts to sell insurance add ons. Eventually collected the car which was dented, scratched and dirty inside and out. Was told 'you are lucky its scratched because then its less likely you'll be charged for scratches that you cant even see when you bring it back'! In summary, a poor start to our holiday. Won't be using again.

Easyrentcars seemed to work well.

Checking in a nightmare. Nearly two hours queuing at Bordeaux airport to do check in. Irate customers ended up in aggressive altercation with one of the desk staff, police were called to calm everything down. Our check in lady apologised and was helpful, but overall a ridiculous length of time to pick up a car. Dropping off was easier and customer service pleasant and efficient.

Easy to use

No issues with the car however despite already requesting on two occassions I'm still awaiting a copy of my return paperwork and deposit. I took the opportunity to inspect the car thoroughly along with the car hire company representative present and it was confirmed that no damage was observed. The paperwork was completed on an ipad at 20:30hrs on Sunday 2nd June and I signed and confirmed my email. I was then notified by the attendant I would receive a copy confirming the car had been returned in an acceptable condition. Disappointingly I have yet to receive a copy of the signed paperwork. The attendant also informed me it would take 7 days to return the deposit to my credit card. I emailed Easyrent and they have sent an emil to the car hire company but I'm still waiting.

Terrible organisation. Looks cheap on the face of it but then they bully you into taking additional cover when you arrive. Had already paid for extra insurance on time of booking and was told this wasn't sufficient and was useless and was then charged an additional 176 euros on top of the £80 i'd already paid in additional cover. Would never use this company again.
