Acceptable, but a Few Things Might Be Improved

We turned up around 12am only to find a family arguing with the attendant (possibly Marco) we weren’t sure why, but waited our turn. As soon as it was our turn about 60minutes later...he was just terrible, I get it we needed to either get insurance or a pre authorisation amount, but he was just horrible, saying he had to leave when we were making our mind up, saying he would just lock up and we wouldn’t get a car. That pressure is not good! Not professional! And should just not be on! Horrible horrible service. We ended up getting extra insurance, we needed it as he was just giving us scare tactics. I’m very unhappy with the service given don’t think I’ll hire again. Not a great way to start our wedding!

Long wait for pickup/ rude unapologetic staff- I was told 5 minutes but was waiting over 45 minutes for the pickup, rang office 4 times. Was spoken to rudely and abruptly by 3 team members, they constantly said just 5 minutes away but I waited 45 mins and they were unapologetic about being so late. Took a further 1/2 hour or more to get to the office and get on the road. Hiring cars without road tax - When checking out, a guy beside me was complaining - he was waiting a month for a refund- due to returning his hire as it had no tax. No road tax? with a hire company? I did not think to check my tax disc? I gave the benefit of the doubt and thought this must be a one off surely? however over Easter I was pulled in by gardai and my vehicle had no up to date road tax on it. The company was unapologetic upon return of the car. I only got away with a fine/confiscation because the garda was local and took my work that it was a hire and he let me go. Poor customer service - They are so unapologetic and unhelpful and I doubt their integrity. The only small redemption is the girl Lauren who did eventually come to my assistance and was the only polite/genuine/helpful person in my whole experience with Easirent.

There was no courtesy bus on the day of our arrival and I got a taxi to the hire car base. The attendant asked me did I get a receipt and when I hadn't, did not reimburse me for the fare.The car tyres were bald on the front outside edges. I showed this to the booking attendant. He said there was no other vehicles and they were ok. He then marked them on the condition report. When I lost my key (and later found) in Donegal - they said the spare key was in Liverpool??? When I returned the car - I later found out it was a different location. The attendant said the tyres would be replaced immediately. EasiRent hired me a car that was both dangerous and unroadworthy

Nothing could have been better! The staff were all superb! In my heading, I stress "Ireland" as Easirent staff in the UK are, in my experience, a bunch of crooks! At Gatwick, after a 10 hour flight, I paid a "deposit" for a car I had already paid in full to rent, only to subsequently find they had charged me for an "Upgrade" to a Diesel car - which I didn't want or need - at more than the cost of the initial rental! At Heathrow, they refused to give me a car I had booked and paid for because I did not have any utility bills dated in the last 3 months proving I lived at my address in the UK? I had been away for 4 months, I pay my bills by direct debit so do not get paper bills and have my bank statements sent electronically so how on Earth could I comply with the VERY small print of their contract? I offered them my passport to HOLD against the rental, £20 000 to be blocked on my credit card as a deposit or for them to run a credit check on me. They refused - but kept my money anyway and ignored attempts to contact them afterwards! I got a taxi to Green Motion down the road and they gladly gave me a car without needing any supporting documents! Easirent Ireland MUST be a different company as the service there is fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation! Just avoid Easirent in the UK!!!!

Con men don’t both, very cheap, I had excess insurance so they were pissedoff that I didn’t take out insurance when I dropped it off they found a scrape that was already there but wasn’t on the paper work so had to fork out £400 so they could make money from me. I will very use again and beware
