IRELAND CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Car advertised was toyota corolla or similar. The car I was given was a Opel Crossland. Fuel was not filled to the max. Windscreen wipers needed replacing. Tyre Pressure warning light came on after 1 day driving. No reverse camera. Unable to use a debit card to to secure insurance excess, had to pay for full insurance for complete duration. Only 1 staff member at desk on arrival, took a very long time to process pick-up.

Booking was smooth however car advertised is not what is given

I was quite satisfied with the service. The local handsome staff introduced various helpful services. It was my first time driving a right-hand drive car by myself. Moreover, I have been driving for less than two years, with half a year of lockdown. Usually, I only drive occasionally on weekends in the city, so I opted for a car with a rearview camera and upgraded the insurance (though it wasn't necessary). Overall, it was a good experience, both picking up and returning the car were convenient and easy to find. Initially, I was not very familiar with roundabouts, but once I looked up and saw instructions on how to navigate them on the car window, which was quite funny.

Standard and satisfactory.

Very good

We arrived to collect the car at 10 minutes to midnight due to delays. We were charged €30 for “collection after midnight “ despite being in the vicinity for collection and in the que before the chargeable times

The on-site process required a deposit, unlike the instruction indicating zero payment. The staff member had a heavy accent and was unclear in his explanation. One night, we forgot to turn off the lights, which drained the battery. We contacted the store but were given the wrong assistance number. Despite repeated calls, they insisted on the incorrect number or suggested we call a nearby return location, which was closed on Sunday. Eventually, we sought help from the hotel and managed to contact AA Roadside Assistance for a jump start.

I was happy with this vehicle hire - it all went well.

Nothing much to note. The whole process worked as planned, which is the main thing.

Probably the best car rental desk in Shannon airport. Seemless pick up and the car was great. I was very happy

Super easy process, nice people. Rental car return is confusing at Dublin airport, but that’s an airport issue and not a Europcar issue.

Made getting the car super easy overall, found a really good price for the trip.

great modern car, quick pickup and drop off, couldn't have been better

Great customer service, I would use them again

Very easy to use

Reservamos un coche y nos dieron uno de gama claramente inferior que ni siquiera podía modificar la altura del asiento y eso es una putada para una persona de 2m. Luego el coche estaba destrozado por fuera llegándole a faltar un tapacubos. A la hora de proceder con la reserva resulta que como la tarjeta de crédito no esta a nombre de quien conduce no vale, lo cual no pone en las condiciones y te hacen pagar un seguro para utilizar la de debito o incluir a otra persona si tiene de crédito. Es decir, me acabo saliendo caro me siento estafado y no dudaría en impedir si alguien va a reservar. Además la atención de la persona que nos atendió fue horrible

They push high-priced insurance, and if you don't buy it, they freeze a 2000 Euro deposit. Be cautious if your credit limit is low. However, the deposit is refunded quickly; if you return the car during the day, they refund it immediately.

To not get the Europcars extended insurence as I feel it was way pricey then it should have been

A long wait for shuttle bus on pick up. Staff at counter a little slow

worked well

Very fast

We booked a fiesta and was upgraded to a larger vehicle. This was a welcome upgrade.

Very easy and quick.

The pick-up point is not at the airport, you need to take a shuttle bus which comes every 15 minutes. If you miss it, you'll have to wait in the cold for a long time, especially during winter. I recommend not renting at this spot if you're in Dublin. Moreover, the car provided was poorly equipped! It was an older Suzuki without cruise control, had a poor sound system, and the gear shift felt mediocre.

Hard-sell on everything there is to hard sell on, threats of consequences if we didn't take their total cover insurance ("we always find something wrong when you return it otherwise"). It isn't my first time using them, and have mixed experiences so far, but this time took the biscuit. Oh, and the guy "helping" us claimed to be the manager - I hope not for the other employees.

Helpful and thoughtful throughout the process.
