Good cars

ERSIRENT at London Heathrow Airport (KV) took advantage of the language barrier. Despite repeatedly showing the printed statement from the rental service about not needing additional insurance, and stating in English 'I have all cover, no need other cover!', the staff didn't mention the £1250 deposit option. When I repeatedly confirmed if the three charges were all deposits, I got a confirmed response that 'ALL will come back to me.' However, when I returned the car, the staff said this was a charge and wouldn’t be refunded. They maliciously upsold the insurance. Essentially, I rented a car and ended up with two full insurance policies, costing me significantly more than usual. This has caused me substantial financial and mental distress. Customer service is handling it, and I hope for a good outcome.

The location of the office and pick up point was a 15 or 20 minute cab ride from the airport, which is why they're such good value I guess. There was a free shuttle bus from the airport but it was a half hour wait and we had already been travelling all day so we opted for the cab.

The car was good but unacceptable wait at collection of nearly 2 hours. This was the case for lots of other customers too.

Good

The insurance wasn't very clear and expensive. Staff were super nice.
