Good

Easy booking, quick pick up and drop off at the airport. Great value for money.

Booked the RAV4 model guaranteed and got exactly that. Fantastic rental overall, especially given the price. 40,000km on the clock but no issues whatsoever. Definitely factor in the extra time for pickup. They will pick you up in a normal car so make sure to ask what registration is on the car doing the pickup and make a note clearly. Also make sure you have something to call in, SIMs are not really available on the arrivals hall from what we saw. Pickup is outside departures before the W pink sign, outside door number 3. Windscreen had pre-existing chips in them which make me a little uneasy - hope there's nothing under the hood being neglected. Overall, will rent again.

- Car met our space needs at a good price - this was the only plus point. - In the end, the value wasn't worth the experience at all as the whole pickup and drop-off experience was handled extremely poorly. - Pickup information may sound clear to someone who has visited Auckland Airport before, but is extremely unclear for someone arriving for the first time. The "Pink W" is not near "international arrivals" as specified, but actually near "Departures" - logically of course we were confused so we called all 3 phone numbers given to us many times to ask for help. As no one picked up, we had to ask airport staff many times, all of whom kept telling us there is no "Gate 11/Pink W" for arrivals and kept telling us to wait at the only international arrivals gate, which was where every single other rental company car usually picks up from. - When someone finally picked up our phone about 40 mins later, we were told they were on the way and would be there in 20 mins (this is ridiculous as they were already given the pickup time and flight number). We had to make numerous follow up calls as no one arrived in 20 minutes and we were left waiting for even longer. Finally when a man came, he blamed us that he was late because we did not follow instructions and he had to come all the way from the pink W (this is literally a few minutes away, I don't know why he was more than an hour late!) - The drop off procedure was much easier because we were actually given an address and we didn't have to rely on or wait for the company for long periods of time. It was also handled a little poorly, however, as we got an email from Great Rentals at around 9pm the night before asking us to meet in a location other than the originally specified address. Only the driver that drove us to the airport had good customer service and we had no issues with him.
