“No pre-check in available so waiting 15 mins in terminal to arrange collection. On return poor signs”
About Budget:8.3/10
Pre check in so not having to spend 15.20 mins at airport reconfirming all my info which you already had on the booking. Poor information on return process... Office closed so had to go to terminal and then told to return to car park and put keys in drop box. No clear instructions and time wasted on my side
They added a glass insurance and roadside assistance without my consent, claiming they were necessary. They also pre-charged for fuel, and I haven't received my refund yet despite returning the car with a full tank.

About Budget:6.0/10
The service was really slow. I had an appointment to pick up the car at 8 AM on June 6th, but only got the car around 9:30 AM. I rented the car for seven days, so if I picked it up at 9:30, I should have returned it before 9:30. However, they still required me to return it by 8 AM, and charged me nearly 30 euros for an hour delay.
The rental company charge me at the desk extra fee for a full fuel tank. I don't know why because I booked fuel option full and pay in advance. So I pay for this option twice.
“Long wait at counter but eventually had a very nice car”
About Budget:8.3/10
Arrived at counter at 11.20pm and kept waiting until 12.30am as there weren't enough staff available for the number of collections (Avis & Budget). There was no option to check in using a kiosk machine. After complaining about the long wait I did receive an upgrade in car class.
I booked an Audi or similar. I was given a Ford. They had many Audi’s but the cost of the booking went from €150 to €400 so I took the Ford. When I said that I had booked an Audi, the staff had no solution.
“Not bad, but watch out for hidden fuel policy charges despite returning the car full with fuel.”
About Budget:8.7/10
Car had a number of marks on it despite it having been recorded as having no marks on it upon collection of the vehicle. We chose this firm for the full to full fuel policy which we followed, but hidden in the terms and conditions was a 19 euro fuel policy automatic fee. This is always charged regardless of you bringing the car back full of fuel. You may as well just add that to the original booking fee. It’s sad that we still have to battle hidden charges in this day and age.
The service was excellent. There were no attempts to sell any additional charge items. If you said you didn't need them, they wouldn't push further. However, at the time of return, there were charges we couldn't understand and we're still in contact with customer service to resolve this. Hopefully, it gets sorted out smoothly.
“Value for money but short on cars had to come back next day for right car”
About Budget:9.7/10
Tried to charge me for fuel but had to show them it was Full to Full.
Then gave me a van instead of a car and said they didnt have anything else.
Was asked to come back next day and picked up a better car.
Hassle but worth it in the end
Good process. Satisfied with vehicle. However still waiting for funds to be returned back to bank account 10 days after drop off despite staff stating that everything was fine.
Use the machine to get a number first. They don't push too many add-ons. Just say you've already purchased everything, and they won't push further. Also, don't switch car models, it will change the price.
I had booked the Volkswagen Touran, but seeing that there were 6 of us ( 4 ladies, which meant there would more shopping along the way, hehe) plus the amount of luggage we had, the lady at the counter was very helpful and gave us the more spacious Mercedes Vito. We had a very comfortable ride throughout our journey in Spain & Portugal, thanks to that lady at Budget.
I had an accident with the car about an hour after collecting it. I took it back to Budget and was given another car. I paid the 1384 euro damage. I now need a damage report and proof of payment from Budget so I can claim from the insurance I took through Easyrentcars. I send numerous emails to Budget. Not a single reply. Used all the email addresses on their documentation. The person at the Budget counter at the airport told my that they cannot supply me with these documents. Although my experience collecting/drop off and the vehicle was very good, my frustration with the company spoils the good experience I had
The car was in very good condition despite high mileage. It drove smoothly, indicating good maintenance. The front desk and return staff were very professional, dedicated, and had great attitudes. They patiently explained and introduced the services to me.
