CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON ATLAS IN MELBOURNE

Like: Cheap rental and we got upgraded, easy pick up and return
Dislike: There were some issues with the deposit and the eftpos machine breaking down but all solved fine

Like: Affordable and convenient

Counter staff at dropoff very rude

There is only one person at the counter. Took more than 20 minutes to complete. The car was dirty with no mats. The car was driven more than 125,000 km and the condition is not so good. The fuel tank was not full.

Like: Car was pristine and very low I'm. Cannot beat the price
Dislike: Shuttle driver just drove straight past at airport pickup and had to wait quite a while for next pick up.

Like: The car is easy to drive. The administration procedures are easy as well.
Dislike: The city outlet closes at 5pm, therefore I have to return the car at 430pm. It might get a little rush.

No Chinese language service. Foreign workers are not efficient, but they have a good attitude.

Like: Quick & convenient. Easy process both online & in office.
Dislike: All good

This is my first experience posting negative feedback for any business - so it was bad! The woman at the service counter needs some support in her job. People were lined up for service & she appeared stressed & miserable. Her communication was rude & abrupt. At one point she kicked us all out of the office so she could take a short break. She insulted me in front of a line of people waiting, announcing that I couldn't afford to pay when the issue was that I held cash & not a credit card. I was alone in a strange city with 2 children in tow. She upset me a lot. There was nothing easy about dealing with this company.

Like: Good comfortable car and reasonably priced to hire. Pick up and drop off locations were convenient and the process was easy. The shuttle to the airport was appreciated.
Dislike: Car wasn’t cleaned properly. We found random chips and mentos throughout the car.

Pretty good

This company is a scam. When I returned the car, I refueled it to the same level as when I received it. However, after I returned the car, they unjustifiably charged my credit card over twenty Australian dollars. When I went back to their office to dispute it, they checked the car again and found out it was their mistake, but they didn't refund my money. The inspector, an unreasonable woman, falsely claimed she smelled smoke in the car and wanted to charge me over a hundred Australian dollars. They gave me two options: either pay the extra hundred and get the twenty dollar refund, or lose the twenty but not pay the hundred. It was clear they were trying to extort me. Why didn't they inspect the car carefully when I returned it? When I found out about the extra charge and went back to get my refund, they used this excuse to con me out of more money. Garbage company!

We waited at the airport for almost two hours! The shuttle never came! We called customer service countless times, usually couldn't get through, and only succeeded a few times. One time they said to look for a red Atlas van, but we waited an hour and it never came. Then we called again and they said the traffic is bad. The third time we got through, the same Indian-accented guy hung up on us as soon as I mentioned we had been waiting an hour! Terrible service! Low rating! We called again and they said the shuttle was from Easy Parking, not Atlas! We waited for so long for nothing! Totally ruined our schedule! Strongly not recommended!

The service was satisfactory

Only one staff member available at the counter

Airport pickup phone was unanswered for a long time, so we had to take a cab ourselves. There were too few staff at the car pickup location, and the waiting time was up to an hour.

Great service from staff at counter. Confirmation email mention to go to "M" for collection which is wrong then when you call you are told via text to go to brown section (which can't be seen as it is over head and seen once you pass and look back) then you are told to wait for a "RED" Atlas bus. Well the bus is white with Atlas in red. Also no mention on what area to wait for in the section as it is long. Why not have a magnetic sign for Atlas Shuttle for car rentals on bus for easier identification. I want the only per see on who found this to be a problem all bbn passages had similar problems!

Like: It was my first time to drive in Australia and we had to go from Melbourne to Mildura to visit a family friend. Talk about baptism by fire! Luckily, renting a car from Atlas was stress-free. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. They made our trip possible and one to remember.

Friendly service both call centre and pick up location, also loved the fact that I could extend the rental at the dam rate.

Like: A good service, nice vehicle in good condition at a very reasonable price.
