Great car and easy to book

Very good.

Great service

Car conditions were good. However, service of the counter staff was beyond satisfactory. There was only one staff at the counter. He was working on another customer ahead of us but was too slow. My family was were forced to wait more than 30 minutes outside in rain. After 30 minute waiting I was told to show UK driver’s license and passport, which was ok. However, I was also told to provide the National Insurance number of the UK, which I had never been told to provide in advance as necessary documents. For foreign residents in the UK like me as expats, had never been aware of such number. I was struggling to get the number on line from the government website but couldn’t get it after all. It took another 30 minutes and he finally managed somehow without the number. I was so anxious about not to be able to rent car without the number whereas he was trying to manage situation. I often rent car in other EU countries but never had such bad treatment and long waiting before. It really annoyed me at the beginning of our holiday.

The car was as advertised, I had a wait for a short time for booking in then directed to my car which was fuelled, fairly clean and where it was supposed to be. The staff were very friendly.

Platform works as advertised, very easy to use and a good price.

I prepaid £60.40 for the rental. On arrival I added another driver and informed on this cost. However after returning the vehicle I was sent an receipt of charges that totaled £146.62. Rental Charges £51.37 Fees and Surcharges £16.85 Optional Services £27.99 Refuelling Charge £25.97 VAT (20.0%)£ 24.44 My Prepayment showed as £71.50 leaving an outstanding balance of £75.12. I queried the additional costs with Budget as the vehicle was full on return and they agreed to reimburse me £36.15. I am extremely disappointed with this service and unexplained costs and feel I have been ripped off. When I returned the car I was not told my the representative that I would be facing extra costs or explained what I was signing.
