Avoid at any cost!!! I have booked the car online from 10:00 am on the 12th of March 2018 until 7:00 am on the 15th of March 2018. Although the booking was to commence at 10:00 am and although I was waiting with my dad and friend at the point of pickup agreed, I was disappointed to have been stood up for over half an hour. After waiting in the rain for someone to take us to the company’s offices, when we went there we were waiting for some time and we were given the car at 11:30 am. Since I do not have a credit card, the employee there suggested to provide the company with my debit card and to pay £150 insurance to cover any probable damages on the car. Even then I asked about the total cost of the rental and they said 150 while the next day the charged amount was 210. In any case, I convinced my self that it was a misunderstanding. The next day we returned the car and the employee at the office checked the car in front of us and confirmed that everything was fine and that we good to go. After a few days I saw that my debit card was charged with extra £300!! I log in into their account and I saw a damage fee for smoking! I never smoked in my entire life and I cant have others smoking in front of me! I am waiting for them to respond and provide me with evidence of smoking which I am really querious to see what they ll figure out!! In any case I will report them to the police and any available consumer body in U.K. This is the worse experience I had in my life with a company as a costumer!

Easirent at Heathrow was yet again brilliant - great, friendly service, really enjoyable to receive their service, all quite quick and efficient, and I was pleased to be given a brand new car too. Thanks to Raj for a really quick and easy check in too. What more can I ask for?

I had the foresight to get fully comp insurance when I took a car with these creeps last year. I returned it and a guy who couldn't speak English very well told me that the tiny ding in the left side door would cost me £85. When I replied "I'm fully comp and don't even THINK about asking for the keys back until you've signed this off" his attitude radically changed. Basically if you don't get fully comp they will shaft you for the most inconsequential "damage". Guy in front of me was charged £250 for a slight blemish on a hub cap. Avoid at all costs, there are much better rental companies out there.

turned up to pick up the car today and advised that because my husband had a minor bump 2 years ago (self declared) that we had to pay 100 cash extra as per their T&C.s It's not in their T&C's - clearly trying to make money on the side. Crooks - avoid them at all costs. they don't deserve a 1 star rating

If you don't want to read my lengthy review, the shorter version reads “The worst experience of car rental ever. I always use low cost firms here and abroad, so I don't have high expectations. The upfront cost is cheap, but don't be fooled by this, there are other ways for them to make money. On return of the vehicle they found reasons to charge ourselves, the people in front and those behind for 'damage' to the vehicles. Coincidence? Please do not use this company” For those of you that like a longer read, my email to the managing director starts on the paragraph below. I had a reply from customer services, rather than him which was just a standard 'oh dear, never mind' response, as I had expected. My email I felt I needed to contact you directly regarding a recent experience with your company. The experience cost me nothing in terms of finance, as I have an annual excess policy which has subsequently paid me back the money I paid you for 'damages'. But it leaves a bitter taste. My correspondence is much more about the way I and my wife, as well as the other customers waiting to return their cars, were treated by your staff. Of course I could simply post unfavourable reviews and put this down to experience, but I would hope that, as managing director you'd want to know of and respond to, an unhappy customer experience. The problem started when on return of the vehicle we were told we were to be charged for a small tyre cut. I would ask you to note the following:- a) the tyres were not checked by staff at the time I picked up the vehicle. the staff member did a general check, including wheel arches, alongside my wife and I, but the tyres were not observed b) the cut to the tyre pointed out to us on our return was almost imperceptible to our eyes (see attached photo), so:- c) we questioned this with the member of staff who identified the problem who told us that staff were very experienced and knowledgeable in these matters and it was our responsibility to identify problems on collection of the vehicle. d) in which case, how could we 'inexperienced' car inspectors have been expected to note if the problem pre-existed? You really can't have it both ways. e) so, is it just possible that we had been given a car which may have already been damaged? f) to add to this the couple ahead of us and the people behind us were also charged for 'damage'. 3 in a row seems to be quite a coincidence. g) one of the couples made such a huge fuss about their 'damage' they were 'let off' h) my wife then followed on into the office to enquire why we should not be 'let off'. The member of staff was rude to my wife, basically saying it was tough luck because we'd paid the cost of the tyre already. He then, clearly exasperated, refused to speak to us any further i) I asked to speak with the manager who was apparently not present in the office j) had it not been for the need to catch my flight I most certainly would not have let the matter rest at that point. As mentioned above, we have excess insurance so, apart from the principle, it was not a problem. However the staff were rude to my wife and there was no manager on duty to complain to. I don't have unrealistic expectations about car hire companies as I normally go for smaller companies and cheap options both in the UK and Europe many times a year, but never with this level of customer service. Thank you for your time in reading this. I look forward to your response.

- A lorry passing car meant grit caused a deep chip on windsceen. Although we were worried by staff at first who said that the whole windscreen would be replaced and it would be expensive, the manager Chris who came out to talk to us was extremely helpful and approachable in sorting this out. He kept in constant contact. In fact it got reduced to just needing to fill the crack, which I really appreciate. I would rate his service as excellent. - Negatives are that I did not like the hard sell tactics used by a salesman when collecting the vehicle regarding the excess wipe-off, and bought an external insurance for £110 cheaper.

Every thing they are complete robbers. Hidden charges. That you are told about. Admin charges off £55 and then a £95 fuel charge that you aren't told about. Complete sham off a company. Stay well away.

Terrible experience, still ongoing. I rented a van from the Gatwick branch to move house, ended up doing some relatively minor damage (small hole in fiberglass), and reported this to the company when returning the van. I didn't take any additional insurance out, so Easirent took my full £1,250 deposit to cover cost of repairs. The repairs clearly wouldn't cost anywhere near that amount, so i was told i would be contacted over the next week with a quote for the repairs, and i would be refunded the difference between that and the deposit value they took from my card. Flash forward 4 months (yes 4 months...) and I have had no information at all from Easirent. I've spoken to branch managers, customer services, their repairs department, and god knows who else. I have no proof the repairs have been made, no invoice to show the cost of repairs, and more importantly Easirent still have my FULL £1,250 deposit without providing any proof that it's been used or needed to cover damage repairs. I am in the process of taking this through Trading Standards and the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association, as i feel this is the only way to move forward. Oh also - had to wait an hour for the van to turn up, and the office isn't at Gatwick airport it's a 15 min £3 bus journey away

I wanted to put 0 but there is no option for that. This is the worst hire company I have ever used. It was prigionaly booked through Eurocar who washed theire hands of the compliant. I picked up the car from gatwick, pulled out toward the roundabout, in the car for about 5 minues and the clutch went. I had to have a recovery sent to get me as i had to pull into a side road. I was then charged £1700 for misuse to the car which was taken from my card without prior warning or the option to get a quote. I have gone through all the comlaints prcedure that I can but to no avail. I will have to take this further myself through the courts. I under stand from a number of reviews i have read since that this is a common issie with easirent - but I had only checked the Eurocar reviews as thats who i booked with. Its a complete fraud to pay for their fleet. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY

I don't normally leave reviews but this rip-off outfit are the most unprofessional disgraceful set of thieves I have ever known. I will keep this brief but their rates are a scam to lure you in and their policies on every aspect of rental from forced (if you want the car) insurance, to upfront fuel full tank selling, to extra charges for practically everything you can imagine in their smelly flea pit offices and rude, ignorant dirty looking staff. Absolutely disgraceful. AVOID!!!

As with many reviews about this terrible company I was also ripped off by Easirent. Booked online with my Debit card cost of hire £156.73 for 10 days, when I arrived to pick up the hire car I was charged an extra £242.83 for Full Cover as I only had a Debit card raising the price to £399.56 which I reluctantly agreed to as I needed the car. The staff at the Heathrow desk are rude, I gave my paperwork to guy at the downstairs desk and he handed the paperwork back to me without saying a word and went outside to check another car? he then came back in sat down and without even looking up just said next. Do not use this Company they are only out to get as much money as they can from you.

My bad experience with Easirent car hire started with having to take a public bus to the Easirent car hire branch in Gatwick which only goes approximately every 45 minutes. The bus driver charged us £3 each for the journey. No information was given as to which bus to take either and we were told afterwards that it was supposed to be free but we were not refunded. Our flight was delayed and hour an a half so when we arrived at the desk we were told that our car had been given away and would have to pay for an upgrade or wait 2 hours for another car to come in. Obviously I had no option but to accept. I was then given a car with a broken windscreen which I refused and eventually got another car which smelt of cigarette smoke. Later I realised I had also paid in advance for my original car I booked on line so Easirent was legally obligated to keep the car for me for the full duration despite my flight been late. It's pretty obvious Easirent are only concerned about increasing their low rental charges in whatever way they can when customers arrive at their desk. Stupidly this was the second time I rented a car through Easirent.......you'd think I would have learnt a lesson by now !!!

They made me very happy assisting me through the booking process in chat (James) in a very professional and efficient way. Good service in general, nice cars, very friendly staff. I used their services multiple times, never disappointed, always all perfect, with nice surprises like free unexpected upgrades, discounted additional driver and so on.

Do not rent from this company!!! The guy at the desk was the most rude and unhelpful person I had ever encountered in a customer "service" situation. Where to start? - Sneaky charges for driving the vehicle in the Republic of Ireland - Extra sneaky and apparently mandatory insurance "you are required to take this or we won't let you take the vehicle' - Class of car I booked not available and not even an apology from the person at the desk - easi rent? Really? Nothing easy about it! I thought I was going to have to do a retina scan or give them my dna map or blood before they would let me take the car These people are glorified insurance fraudsters who happen to rent cars. This is the most sneaky, dishonest and unprofessional bunch of crooks I have ever done business with.

DO NOT HIRE FROM THIS COMPANY! They are fraudulent, thieving and morally bankrupt. They will charge you as much as they can get away with. They charged me almost 4 times what was originally booked! I am in the process of disputing the transactions with my bank. Don't let this happen to you. Here’s what happened: When I made the booking, it didn't quite trigger with me that they wanted a credit card rather than a debit card. I did read the fine print, but even so, it sounded quite normal to require a bank card, drivers licence, passport etc. This had never happened to me before, having successfully hired cars in the UK before with my debit card. But because I didn't have a credit card, they insisted - company policy - that I purchase an additional $0 excess insurance plan called 'RELAX'. So this just about doubled the cost, which I reluctantly paid as I had already paid for the booking. Then when we returned the car, they noticed a really really tiny chip in the windscreen that I had not noticed. They said that the insurance policy did not cover the windscreen, and said that I had to pay 110GBP to replace the windscreen. I refused to pay such an excessive cost for what was an 'act of God' - not in the slightest bit my fault - and an incident that occurred through normal usage of the car. I found it absurd that if it were not covered by the hire company under general wear and tear or maintenance, that it was not even covered under the expensive insurance policy that I purchased. What sort of an insurance policy is that!? In addition, the initial damage checks were conducted in the dark, and in the rain, and could have easily been missed then. So it could have been there the whole time! They deducted the 110GBP from my account in the following days without my consent. And it gets worse. A whole two months after this frustrating experience, they deducted a further 112GBP from my account for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AT ALL. No contact with me, nothing! This is theft. I've had to cancel my card.
