DRIVALIA CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN UNITED KINGDOM

When we arrived at the store, they tried to upsell us insurance, claiming it would cover any scratches. Considering the good road conditions, we decided not to buy it. At return, they said everything was fine, but later we received a damage report for a scratch that was already there when we picked up the car. We mentioned it to them at pickup, but they dismissively told us to just take photos ourselves. They did not inspect the car at return, and only later claimed there was a scratch. It seems that if previous renters had bought the insurance, those scratches would have been ignored, but if future renters don’t buy it, they end up being held responsible. The car rental company has no record of scratches and relies entirely on renters to document them. It’s essential to document any issues, but the car rental company's honesty and factual reporting are crucial.

This was my first time using this rental company, and the process was not communicated properly. Uploading various documents and procedures delayed my trip!

Very satisfied

We took a bus from the airport and were charged £13.6 for two people. We reserved a Volvo XC60, but we got a Mazda X5. Not sure if it’s in the same class, but it seemed like a rip-off to me. The car pickup process was very inefficient, especially during the short winter days in London. We spent nearly half an hour at the counter just to get the car, and it cost almost £19,000 for 22 days.

Very poor experience; the price increase for upgrading the vehicle was significant.

Car was as booked and checking person was very helpful, freindly and efficient

Everything went very well except longer than normal amount of time at pickup. Computers were being problematic but Alex was very helpful and made sure my troop went well.

Car only had 1/4 of a tank petrol. Car provided was a Peugeot 3008, not a volvo xc60 as advertised.

Convenient and good value for money.

The car rental service was very smooth for more than a month without any issues. The car was in good condition, and the navigation system was also good.

Very disappointed to pay €120 waiver as I only had a visa debit card.

Not good, too many mileage restrictions. Even after purchasing unlimited mileage, there were still charges at the end. The car was in very poor condition, with no air conditioning, and the key remote was broken, often failing to lock the car. This was the worst car rental experience I've had abroad. They didn't provide a full tank of gas at pickup but charged for a full tank at return. Extremely poor service. Another rental company I used for this trip did not have these issues.

I booked the car through QEEQ Car was great. I extended the car rental via Drivalia platform Credit payment was to Drivalia But after countless emails, no invoice could be provided for me vehicle extension

The car was in perfect condition, the staff was very profesional and friendly, location was 5 mins close to the airport.

My preffered way to book rentals due to their prices, price drop protector (I have used it) and aslo the AXA insurance (comprehensive risk coverage, never used it, hope I never will)

Excellent

Although I wasn’t a fan of the manufacturing quality of the MG I had, I was grateful for the upgrade to automatic and the friendliness of Mark at the desk when I picked up and dropped off the car

The iOS app is good. It could be improved by being able to save favourite companies so you don’t have to manually select them every time a search is done. The website is not as good as it used to be. Annoying you can’t list cars by order of price.

No staff at the store. Couldn't pick up the car and was charged without a refund.

Direct shuttle service available
