The pick up process is very poor and time consuming

It was a bunch of crap. I pre paid for a small car and they said they didn’t t have one because of st Patrick’s day. They then make me pay $80 over what I already paid for the car they switched me into. Normally when this happens I do not pay an up charge for the vehicle they want switch me into. I had no choice as this rental location required off site pick up from the airport and there were no other rental car companies near by. Felt totally taken advantage of. I don’t think they even applied my area payment to the rental. When I tried to dispute the charges I was made to feel as though take it or leave it. This was a terrible experience.

No problems

No complaints

Our flight was delayed and the girl stayed late to allow us to collect the car which we thanked her for and appreciated. However, she spent a lot of time then trying to sell us insurance we didn't require and attempted to use scare mongering techniques. When we dropped the car off on the last day, shortly after the opening time, she was unable to provide any advice or help with getting to the airport. The airport shuttle didn't show up and she had no idea about it nor any taxi numbers or advice. The website stated there was an airport shuttle and she knew nothing about the company nor times and didn't know how to contact them. She was very unhelpful and off-hand We found taxi numbers online however there was no availability to pick us up. When we asked to speak to the manager and said we would have to complain, she told one of the employees to take us to the airport as he was going in the direction of the airport as he was leaving.

Car was a VW Touran that fit 7 people without luggage. The car had 87,000 kms on it with scratches & multiple dents all over it with a fog light out. It was due for an oil change. The windshield had cracks in it. The pick up experience was awful. We were basically told the online policy to cover the excess damage was worthless. Tyres & glass was not covered, nor was roof damage. They tried to rent us a truck that held 5 with more luggage room. The whole pick up experience was an intimidation & bullying process, which seems to be the norm in Ireland. The same woman who rented the car to us, refused to make eye contact with us upon are return.

When picking up the car the guy at the counter painted a very scary picture of insurance situation and informed me that to be fully insured I need to purchase very expensive insurance. I know this is his job and everything he said was accurate but I found it very scary. And the whole process took too long. When I dropped off I found the guy accepted it was rude. He dropped me off at the airport by double parking and gave me a "safety first" advice when I was going to get off from offside of the van. But because he double parked, the near side was equally dangerous.
