To cut a long story short;
> I was overcharged by £28.73 which the company won’t refund.
> The car had a slight smoky odour when I collected it.
> The windscreen was ‘greasy’ on the inside, for which I had to purchase window cleaner so it was safe to drive at night.
> Staff I spoke to on the phone were rude.
My advice if you intend to use this company is to keep checking the cost and additions when you collect the car.
I booked online, through a broker, which said I had to pay £72.00 upon collection. Not an excuse, but after an overnight, long-haul flight I just paid the amount asked at the counter, I was told this included for £25 fuel in the tank, there is also a sign when you collect the car stating this. When I checked the numbers a day later, I had been charged £53.73 over the original £72. Numerous emails went back and forth where the customer rep constantly fiddled the numbers to suit their purpose:
First explanation: the £53.73 consisted of £40 for additional driver, and £13.73 for fuel in the car.
I pointed out that the additional driver was free of charge…
Second explanation: £40 was for fuel, £13.73 for additional driver
…again, additional driver should have been free of charge…
Final explanation: additional £53.73 was a fuel charge, AND I should be thankful because their fuel card says the tanks should have been £85. Lucky me.
But, why wasn’t I charged just £25 as advertised in the office?
