1st time renter

Everything went fine with hire but of course there just had to be someone trying to wheedle extra cash out of us on return by claiming we were responsible for non-existent or microscopic chips or other drivers’ damage! So very predictable but unfair and totally negates previous good customer service....

When I called for pick up I was told where to wait and that 'Colin' would meet me there but was not told what vehicle he would be in and when he arrived (after over half an hour's wait) he did not introduce himself, show any identification or any proof he worked for Easirent. As a lone female this was un-nerving and I was fortunate another customer was picked up at the same time so I was not alone in the car with this stranger going to an unknown destination. Within an hour of picking the car up, a warning light came on about tyre pressure. I checked these myself and when I called the office to report it, they advised it was a known ongoing problem but had not informed me about when I collected the car.

I presented full insurance for excess and yet was still obliged to block 1500 from my credit card. In other rentals I have not had to block this which is one reason that I have taken out that insurance. I was not pleased. When dropping off the car I waited 40 mins for the shuttle bus to take me to the terminal. I and two other clients had to ask 3 times for the staff to ring the shuttle and chase it up. The staff were helpful but you really need to have a better relationship with your shuttle bus provider. It is very stressful to be waiting 40 mins for the shuttle when you have a plane to catch.

If you follow the small print of your hire agreement everything will be fine, if you don’t expect to part with more of your money if you want to take the car!

Like: The company computer system crashed while doing the pickup paperwork. Staff were very apologetic and included a GPS for free as a compensation for having to wait.
Dislike: Office is a bit dingy and lacks any sort of customer comfort.
