Not the rental we originally requestedPros:When we finally exhanged the vehicle in another city, it was comfortable.Cons:We requested a 7 seater but when we arrived, it was not available. We got a substitute but it was cramped even though it was a larger vehicle (one row of seats was missing 8n the Transporter). We managed to get it exchanged in Edinburgh (rented in Glasgow) but was told the wrong location to go so it took us several hours of our vacation time to do this. There was no manual in the vehicle so when the tire pressure light came on, we inflated the tires and had to stop frequently to make sure that everything was still okay. Return office in London is not well marked and instructions on where to park car not clear.Reviewed 5 Jul. 2018

Classic Bait and switchPros:NothingCons:Operating out of a trailer. Arrived with a Mercedes reservation, then offered a dirty Mitsubishi as a “comparable vehicle”. No price adjustments. Then the kicker, this gal goes on about how I need a notarized letter from my credit card insurance to them verifying liability coverage. Not mentioned in the reservation. So instead i am offered the chance to double the reservation cost through their insurance (again, for the Mitsubishi ) WITH a $2500 deposit. Total sham. I walked out. Plus you’re stranded once you get there which is probably why people pay the prices.Reviewed 28 Nov. 2018

Easirent left us stranded in ScotlandPros:Nothing.Cons:Using Easirent was the worst decision we made on our Scotland trip. Upon reserving the car, we opted for the FULL COVERAGE insurance that included tire damage. We were thankful that we paid for this insurance when we ran into some sharp rocks on the side of a winding road on our way to Glasgow. The tire shop we were sent to told us that they were able to fix the tires and the wheel, but Easirent decided they wanted send the car to Aberdeen to get fixed.They seized the car from us and told us we could no longer have the car because the accident was "driver negligence". It was NOT negligence... it was an accident. And we paid to have coverage for ALL accidents. How can you claim to provide your customers with FULL COVERAGE insurance, and then when something happens say that it was "driver negligence" so you have to no longer provide your PAYING CUSTOMER with your services? We were left stranded in a small town somewhere in Northern Scotland with no idea how to get to where we needed to go. How can a rental car company strand two young ladies in the middle of a foreign country? The worst part of all of it was that they ended up charging me the extra cost to fill up the gas tank. It ended up costing me almost $200 for fuel through Easirent. How did they expect me to fill up the tank when they took the car away from us unwillingly? When I FINALLY got a hold of customer service (after almost 3 weeks of waiting for a response), they told me that they cannot reimburse me for that charge. We had to spend at least $200 on extra train tickets and transportation after they left us stranded.. and now they won't even reimburse me for the fuel costs? It's unacceptable.Reviewed 15 May 2017

Nightmare from start to finishPros:Nothing.Cons:Our flight was two hours late so the car we reserved was gone, and we were told only a luxury SUV was available. The cost quoted when I made the online reservation was $140 USD and we ended up paying Over $500 USD after all of their ridiculous charges were tacked on. When we returned the car they claimed we caused a "bulge" in the tire from hitting a pot hole and charged us $350 USD for it. I will certainly be fighting the charges. This rental company is a scam from start to finish. Please rent elsewhere to avoid the headache of dealing with them.Reviewed 26 Jun. 2017

Cons:Salesman was a fast talker, order was inaccurate, very inflexible since we booked thru kayak. Had to pay insurance twice since they would not accept kayak insurance. claimed my credit cards didnt work and had to use a different card, which was charged insurance and rental. No paper copy of rental provided. Drop off was inconvenient and we wanted to change but office refused to help us, said we had to go online to change drop off. Long wait to get car. Even though we picked up car late, still had to return car at reservation time.Reviewed 12 Jun. 2017

Worst car rental experiencePros:Nothing at all except the carCons:The people at front desk were rude form beginnging tell all the customers that a van will be picking them up and when ever one of us called to ask where it was they said oh you must of just missed it. Then proceed to tell me that they charge extra for Amex, when I booked it with Amex. Then for insurance they show me some guys lettter that he brought from his insurance that states my Amex covers insurance . Dropped off car with less gas ( my mistake), I asked to refill it I was verybrudeky told no and then told to get off property because he didn't like the tone I used when I asked. Car was inspected before they threatened me. Then get an email that a tire wall was ripped, with a pic of a tire . Charged me an extra 270 pounds. This whole experience is ridiculous and all charges has been stopped by my credit card.Reviewed 16 Mar. 2017

Great vehicle but several service drawbacksPros:Vehicle was fine, but service was poor.Cons:Despite getting a nice vehicle, I will never rent from this company again. The shuttle from the airport was not easy to arrange and their location was difficult to find at drop-off (even with a GPS nav system!) The company refused to accept our personal collision insurance (even with the paperwork!), resulting in a fee for their provided insurance. After picking up the vehicle and seeing British roadways for the first time, my elderly father (who we paid 130 pounds to be listed as an additional driver) was uncomfortable driving there. I called the following day to cancel the additional driver for the remainder of the trip (13 of the 14 days), and the Easirent rep said it couldn't be done and was quite abrupt / rude on the phone.Reviewed 15 Aug. 2018

Cons:Pickup: At Glasgow airport I walked all the way to the rental center, only to find out that Eisirent wasn't represented there. Was told by the helpful people that I had to call them to be picked up. Had to find a phone number for the local branch. Was then told to go all the way back and wait at Parking Garage 2. Sat there a long time until thier driver came from the opposite direction and said I was supposed to wait on the park's other side...... When I asked the representative during pickup why all this wasn't detailed in the confirmation email, he said it was Kayak's responsibility, and that Kayak is known to be problematic..... I countered that if Eisirent wants a smooth and welcoming process for its customers, Eisirent itself should send an email regarding pickup, especially since they are aware that Kayak doesn't do it. He had no answer..... No spare tyre in the car. Was told to call them in case of need. Of course, according to Murphy's Law, the next day had a flat tyre.....out of the blue. Called them. Was transferred four times. Waiting + towing + replacing took 4 !!!! hours. With a spare tyre it would have taken 14 minutes.............. Eisirent dropoff point at Edinburgh's airport - poorly signed.Reviewed 28 Jun. 2017

Book through a UK sitePros:The pick up, all arrangements and drop off back to the airport were all very fast and efficient. Arthritis makes walking painful but there is actually less walking involved than with an on-site rental service, and it is easy to find again when dropping off.Cons:I had no idea I would need to pay another £50 for collision damage waiver (or, put full value of car on the credit card!) because it had been booked through kayak, a US based company. Apparently the CDW is included in the price with UK companies only (as it was when I used the rental company 2 months ago) - so beware, or rent direct from easirent. I would use the company again, but not, obviously, with the American company. This should be much more prominent in any website.Reviewed 16 Apr. 2017

Negative ExperienceCons:We had an issue with the price ending up going well above and beyond what we booked for online. The "insurance" wasn't covered in the online rental and was rather exorbitant. They claimed that legally we needed to have significant coverage and that our credit card insurance wouldn't be sufficient unless we paid the full value of the car upfront (which was 35,000 GBP). Obviously we were unable to do that but didn't want to pay triple the price, so we took our business elsewhere and the insurance was not nearly as expensive.Reviewed 10 May 2017
