CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON GREEN MOTION IN LONDON

This was chaotic. Huge deposit required. All customers shocked and angry. Will never book again through either company. Shuttle bus infrequent and filthy. Terrible

The deposit was very high.

Despite their reputation I had no problems renting from Green Motion. I took out separate damage waiver insurance (did find one company who will not insure any Green Motion hire car due to the number of claims they put in). They car that I had been allocated had not been returned so I was up-graded to a larger brand new Kia Ceed - very nice. Staff were polite.

Price was the cheapest - no problems.

Green Morion would not take any responsibility for my booking contract as I had booked through a 3rd party. Even though Green Morion was the hire company linked to my booking. I found the staff at the check in desk with an attitude and also trying to charge me for extras which I didn’t need and what a I believe were included in my contract booking. When I went round to collect my car I asked for copies of my documents and was told they would be emailed to me. I said that wouldn’t happen as the check in member hadn’t asked or clarified any of my details. Lack of attention to detail. The manager was helpful in resolving this for me. I also had booked a manual and received an automatic which I then requested to have changed.

i went with Greeen Motion because of the cost but would absolutlely never use them again. Although they appear to be cheap there are a lot of hidden costs that should be highlighted. The use of the Hopper Bus to get to the hotel to pick up the green motion car was expensive costing 6 GBP per person. On a return trip for 4 people this adds on a cost of almost 50GBP. On arrival, there was an incredibly long queue. We had to wait over an hour and a half. All the customer service agent could say was that it was lucky we weren't hear last weekend because people waited over three hours. They boasted to being the busiest car rental place in Heathrow but didn't have enough staff on. When I arrived there were 4 members of staff serving and then 2 left as they finished their shift despite the long line out the door. The manager was more focused on "getting some atmosphere in this place" and went off to find some speakers and hook these up to play music instead of helping to serve the queue. There was a lot of repetition in giving information that was already supplied on booking. The process was slow and full of staff trying to sell further insurance and cover packages. Things that are standard at other car rental companies are extras here. Eg. additional driver is 10GBP per day. The standard insurance package is low and the excess was over 1400GBP as opposed to 300 for normal rental companies. The staff were not very professional in their demeanour, chatting and gossiping throughout. They were clearly over worked and fairly fed up with their lot. When I had to take the car back early due to a medical emergency I wanted to contact them directly to talk about extended cover etc and I could never get through to them. I had to resort to driving to Heathrow to discuss options with them. they could not extend me cover to Europe and could not offer me a refund for unused days despite me having proof of a medical emergency.

Counter staff not very polite, very inconvenient site miles away from T5, Hoppa bus to get to green motion was very expensive.

It would be better to describe the way much clearer and from Heathrow Airport to your location, find it very difficult to locate the shuttle and the right terminal. I ended up taking the TFL buses. Also make it simple to just say that your office is actually the Holiday Inn building, rather than a door number and a street name etc... Thanks

Waited too long to get my car. Very rude staff. Won’t be using or recommending this company ever again!!

Green motion is not a good company to represent! Never met such rude staff in my life!!

Counter staff is poor service.

Very good

Had to wait long time as it was morning pickup, staff was very friendly

The worst rental experience I have ever gone through will never use them again

Telling people you need a credit card to pick up. Make people book with CC

even though I have purchased the full cover insurance from the EasyRentCars, but the stuff still asked me to buy additional insurance.

Customer service is very good and reply the email pretty soon!

Gr8 service as always

They are nothing short of thieves - they allure people with low rates and then charge some nonsensical rates for repairs and trust me they will find something to claim. Avoid at any cost and if you have to, make sure you buy insurance to zero excess. I man my just one disgruntled customer - Read this first (also google green motion review): https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/money/2018/jun/09/green-motion-car-hire-bills

Your price on the site does not match the amount you have to pay. About additional payment of insurance, the client finds out only on the pick-up point. All this looks like fraud towards the client .

Shuttle bus was not frequent enough

Staff try to get as more money as they can to get you pay full insurance and cover or they give you hard time

Good service

great green enviornment company, excellent counter and service staff! My two visits very great experiences. very professional, I will definately come again and refer them.m4j4 location staff: thank you for helping me through a very difficult situation going the extra mile on the spot for me. YOU ARE IN DANGER OF BEING TAKEN OVER BY THE BIG COS!!!

good concept of online service and booking process.

the worst customer service i have ever received. the manager Emon.M wouldn't give me his surname and should not be a manager of any branch of Green motion. He is the most rude and unhelpful person i have ever met

not very friendly stff
