Didn’t get the car we’d paid more to get & tried to give us a smaller car that wouldn’t have worked for us . Didn’t advise us of the £15 ( $30 AUD !)London congestion fee at both pick up & drop off and couldn’t really say where that as well as the low & ultra low emission zones were .

Overall, the car rental company provided good service. They thoroughly explained the importance of purchasing insurance and related services to waive excess fees. However, after discussion, I informed them that I had already bought all necessary insurance from QEEQ.com, and they didn't push for additional sales. The company's parking lot is situated in a congestion charging zone in London, and the congestion charge is paid daily. If returning the car after office hours, you can leave the key at the designated spot.
