Bad car rental experience ..

Great car

Great service

The car we hired had not been cleaned and wasnt washed from outside. It felt like someone had just returned thecar and then given to us.

Nothing particularly wrong, certainly value wise. Staff friendly enough, car fine, service good. A couple of things to tighten up on though (some my misunderstandings but you could help others avoid)... Finding the location - I'd wrongly gone to the car hire bus stop at terminal 5 before realising you weren't on there. When I looked on the internet at the booking it said at the top 'available from terminals 1 -4'. As I saw that I didn't look further assuming I needed to go to a different terminal. I did so on the free train then found you weren't on that sign either. Only then did I look at the smaller print and find I needed to go to a specific bus stop for a specific bus. By that time it was very late. I had tried calling for advice several times but no one picked up which would also have saved me time. In hindsight I completely realise that it says on the detailed part of the voucher how to get to you but having travelled mainly abroad I'm used to car hire that's signed or in the airport. It never crossed my mind not to just follow signs for car hire and look for your desk.

Having never used Heathrow airport before, I found it difficult to find where to catch the bus from to the rental company. A phone call to the office sorted it, but perhaps the bus stop number could be added to the booking instructions. I also found it difficult to locate the offices to drop off the car. However, the car itself was fantastic value for money. I booked a small vehicle but was upgraded free of charge to the next size up due to availability. All staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely book with Easirent again. Especially now I know how to find them. :)

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