It was not clear Ace was part of Goldcar.
Felt completely mislead, that we had booked a car for a certain price, but when we got there we had to either put down a deposit over €1000 on a credit card (that we couldn’t do) or pay insurance of over €120.
We were told by the rude desk staff that it was in the small print and we should read them better.
It was mis- selling and we will never use you again. I actually want compensation as I’m so angry and it ruined our trip.
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.
The car was excellent as was the pick up and delivery service. I was, however, disappointed at the 50 Euro penalty for filling up the fuel tank with very little fuel needed. As the car was returned 2 days early, I felt that the 50 Euros was excessive even though it was probably in the terms and conditions. Under these circumstances perhaps you might consider refunding part of the penalty.
The car was very beat up and the guy handing over the keys said he didnt cxare what state it was brought back in. The car stunk of spilt alcohol and there was a hole in the front divers carpet. It drove okay although there was no radio reception. Later found that the aerial had been broken off. Next day with my wheels turned outwards I realised the two front tyres were badly worn and probably illegal. I looked in the boot for the spare, but there was none. I could not find any details on the booking paperwork for a number to phone. Very disappointed, the rental was not cheap but I was given a third rate /unroad worthy car
It wasn't ACE but Goldcar. I felt like i was made to take out full insurance. There were dents around the car and the number plate looked like it has been badly damaged. It was not a pleasant experience. I will be using a proper hire car firm in future like Hertz.
Not use again simply because on picking car up, we were told that we were not covered for anything on car unless we paid €188 for their insurance. I had paid extra when booking the car for initially for coverage. They told me at counter it doesn’t count and we would be charged for anything wrong on return of car. We opted not to take it but puts an amount of anxiety on you during by whole holiday.
“Great car, great car park staff, not very smooth pick up process”
About ACE:8.0/10
The car was amazing. The staff at the car park were really friendly and helpful too.
But the staff at the desk were not so friendly and also a bit of a mess - a long queue formed and we waited almost an hour even though we arrived with just 2 groups in front of us.
Also, I would recommend taking photos of the car beforehand. There was a scratch that was not caused by us but had not been recorded. The blame would have been put on us had I not taken a photo that showed it was there before we left.

Everything was so easy and quick! And the auto rebook was really good.
Goldcar were terrible at arrival! Over 2hrs waiting with 3 children on my own. Rude! Also tried to say the extra insurance with you wasn't enough and that you wouldn't pay out so we had to buy it with them also! Wouldn't use again!
“the car was fine but very small Engine for a five seater family car. 1.2L struggled with motorways”
About ACE:7.3/10
Getting the car seemed to take forever and with 3 small hungry children it was a added stress.there was some some hidden charges and fined if you didn’t bring the car back with a full tank or committed an offence that weren’t stipulated before the hire.
Was good, counter staff very helpful. Think the insurance thing is a bit cheeky really but i get it. Also they didnt know id reserved a car seat. Luckily had brought own anyway as airline said was no extra cost. Should be made clear about huge deposit if you dont take out insurance as i hadnt brought a card with that amount of cash on.
The car worked fine but was very heavily damaged (large dents and almost every panel was scratched or gouged) and only a 1.4 petrol so a bit under powered for a car the size I had requested.
I booked a car through Ace whose local agents showed as Rhodium. In fact they were using, in my opinion and that of scores of people, the worst car hire company in the world - Goldcar.
About QEEQ:8.0/10
As a booking platform it was very good except the information about the company they use was totally and unforgivably incorrect.
