CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON HERTZ IN EDINBURGH

I won’t never ever book cars with Hertz especially in UK. Rigid staff, poor customer services and don’t even ponder long q waiting to pick up the cars as staffs just take their own sweet time to process the booking. Totally waste of time as we q for almost 2 hours for less than 20 people in line. From counter to ground staffs, all are very arrogant and unfriendly at all. Even the shuttle service to terminal takes ages to come and not really care whether u r catching your flight schedule. I never had such bad experience with Hertz in other countries over the world. Sorry, yes ruin my day

Everything is fine. Please be cautious with yours posted rating on Hertz. Not matching customer expectation at all

Acceptable

Hertz is quite convenient, but the price at the store is much higher than the online booking price.

Exceeded my expectations in every way. There was 4miles on the car when I got it. The customer service staff on location was extremely friendly, great to chat to and very helpful. Would recommend based on his interaction alone.

easy and simple

Upon arrival, they said there was a free upgrade promotion and asked me to sign in the upgrade section. They said I wouldn't have to pay the original £700+, but later denied it and said because I signed, I must pay.

They sneakily include insurance in the rental agreement without informing you and charge your credit card after you return the car. The staff's service is poor, they can give you the wrong car and later notify you saying, 'We gave you the wrong car.'

Arrived at the car rental company on time, they said the model we booked wasn't available (Hertz explained that the QEEQ website made a mistake; they don't have such vehicles and normally use them for cargo). They offered us two choices: either switch to a 9-seater or change to an SUV and a regular car. However, both options would cost significantly more, and the second option couldn't fit the luggage of our three families, leaving us with only the first option. After dealing with the car rental company and a 2-hour delay, we finally got the 9-seater, but it disrupted our morning plans, and we had to pay extra. After renting cars abroad many times, this was by far the worst experience.

On arrival everything was done to dissuade us from getting the van. We were told the roads where narrow, at our destination the locals scratched cars because they did not like hikers and then offered two other cars for 2x and 3x the price. Oh and the price was presented to us always by subtracting the money we had already payed for the original booking. Everything was fine in the end.

Poor service attitude

アップグレードして、予約した車輌よりも 装備、車輌供に充実していたので金額に見合う快適な運転が出来ました。

I loved the car and enjoyed my 1500 mile journey around England in it. Having the SatNav was a great bonus.

QEEQ found me a great deal.

I got an EV, I couldn’t activate the Polstar card. I couldn’t charge the car as I didn’t have a ChargingScotland card. I contacted Hertz and received no reply. I will not use them again.

Very easy to book

I was not given the vehicle I booked. I was charged £50 extra per day. The staff told me that 3 seater vehicle is not there for the class of vehicle booked, but the booking was for 3 seater.

When there were no 3 seater for the class of vehicle I booked, how did the system accepted the bookings?

The car pick-up process was extremely slow. It took an hour to get a signal on the POS machine. The staff told me that in case of any accident, I must first pay Hertz £1500. They also pushed additional local insurance at £23 per day. It seems that domestic insurance with low coverage is not very helpful.

Hertz is great. I lost my passport, but Hertz was the only company that could rent a car to me, and they were very efficient. I ended up with a Toyota Chev, which is a great car.

Without any notification, the initial order for a Mercedes was changed to a small Ford. Customer service couldn't resolve it, and we ended up canceling the order out of frustration. They even said they don't accept complaints! An international rental company with such poor service is truly disappointing. In the end, we had to cancel the order, but a Hertz employee came out and offered us a Hyundai for three days at the original four-day price. Overall, this was the worst rental experience abroad.

Good Service

Good Website to compare prices of the vehicle company.

The staff at the rental company were very enthusiastic and thoroughly explained the rental procedures. They carefully inspected the car and verified everything with us during pick-up.

The wait for arranging the car pick-up was too long. We had a reservation at 10 AM and arrived at 9:45 AM, but had to wait in line until around 11 AM to start the process.

Pathetic experience at Hertz as they didn’t provide the vehicle which was pre- booked. was forced to take a sedan which was uncomfortable as we were 5 adults travelling.
