Manchester - Lake District

I've ordered a car with full petrol deposit and it was almost out of petrol. There wasn't any water for cleaning the mirrors

Easy as always

Staff were very slow in taking care of customers; their main objective was to scare and bully you into as many additional insurances as possible, ignoring completely the coverage already subscribed to at the booking. Not helpful their policy to hand over the car with an (almost) empty fuel tank and expecting it back with the same level. On the positive side: The car I had booked was also the one I got - which is rather exceptional.

Very easy and user-friendly as a platform. The automatic price-drop alert worked perfectly and actually saved me money. Very satisfied in every respect.

The car itself was great. The exterior was not perfectly clean on pickup and may be the result of storing cars in an unsealed yard. There are no numbered parking bays. Finding your hire car can be tricky. The office directions were casual to non-existent but one of the yard staff kindly located the car for me. There is no designated place for car return, forcing hirers to cruise the yard looking for an available space to leave the vehicle. Overall it was great value for money and the service okay for the price paid.

It took 40 minutes to pick up a pre-booked car. The counter staff were incredibly slow. In that time only 3 cars were booked out. A new bus load of customers then arrived and as there was no queuing system in place I had to stop the member of staff who was about to serve one of the later customers when it was my turn. The car was dirty and had lots of damage so the check took another 30 minutes. It was the worst car hire experience I have ever had.

An overall excellent experience, will use this company again

Cannot comment on customer service as we didn’t require it, but all other aspects of service excellent
