Rip-off

I noted there were bad comments on FB page about Surprice rent a car but I can honestly say none of them rang true in my experience with them. Counter staff polite friendly and did not push more insurance. The man who check vehicle when we returned was also polite and it was very quick. Would use them again as I think i saved approx €300!!

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.

Had to wait 10 to 15 minutes for pick up of shuttle bus and depot about 10 mins from airport and difficult to fined when returning car We were charged another 35 euros as they said we were late but when booking the car rental we stated pick up time 8.00pm and we were there at 7.50pm and suttle bus didn't arrive till 8.05pm also told if we used the toll bridge by mistake we would be charged another 35 euros other car rental companies would just charge us the toll bridge charges so we will not be hiring from Surprice again

the car was perfect for the two of us, we were pleased with it for a small car very comfortable, it was not clean inside or out, apart from that happy with the car, the only issue I have is the drop off was not clear on my booking papers it said drop off at airport the shuttle driver said to park the car at car park 1 and pointed out where to park, it was not clear on papers from rental desk where to return car it gave a map of location but no return details, this needs to be made clearer, we would use this company again.

dont know about the price drop but were happy with the price paid, booking was easy, will use this site again, thankyou
