Simple car hire

I was given a brand new car for my rental. As I had no experience of an electric car, the staff explained everything to me. The time at the counter is always a bit slow, as with most car hire companies. As I hire on a regular basis, usually every six weeks, it would be great if Green Motion could store my information on their records.

Qeeq is always the cheapest. My only quibble is when I book around 6 weeks in advance, I get my price. Around 5-6 days before the hire date I check if price has come down with Qeeq price checker. I then double check by creating a new booking for the same dates. Often it is a lot cheaper, so I cancel original booking and proceed with new booking. I shouldn't have to do this if Qeeq price checker was doing it's job!

Mileage shown on the out paper was incorrect-in their favour should I have done more than my allowance. Out paper showed tank full but it was only ⅞ full. I took it back full but it does niggle me that someone may be trying it on.

All went smoothly, did not have to wait long for the shuttle bus

They gave me a car with a lot of damage to one side even though they have plenty of other cars. We missed one bus because it took a while finding out which bus stop at the airport they do the pick ups from. This SHOULD be in the email

The staff was helpful in using the dreaded Dartford Tunnel, and eased problems thereof with full assistance. First assistant was a bit overbearing when trying to "upsell" insurance.On that subject, there is still a $1500 + charge in my credit card statement 2 1/2 days after returning the car with no problems.Most rental companies do not charge as much, and the charge is cancelled faster.

Overall, good value, - would consider using again now that we know where to get shuttle etc.
