A very terrible car rental experience. The return was scheduled for the early morning of the day we were flying back home. When we arrived at the parking lot to return the car, we discovered the car key battery was dead. We contacted the rental company, but since we needed to catch our flight, we couldn't wait for their staff to fix the issue. The rental company instructed us to take a taxi to return the car key to their office. Since the dead car key battery was their fault, we returned the key and left for our flight. Unexpectedly, they maliciously charged us nearly 300 euros, including towing fees, parking fees, and some inexplicable management fees. This rental company already required an excessively high deposit of 2000 euros, which was unreasonable and seemed designed to facilitate these malicious charges.
The store provides a shuttle service; you just need to wait at parking lot 18. The driver, a friendly Black guy, efficiently shuttles customers back and forth, which is quite good. Although the company is not big, it seems busy with quite a few car rentals. They mainly offer small cars, which are convenient given that Dublin's roads are generally narrow.
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.
Counter staff were friendly and helpful, but I was not made aware of the a weakness in the model (Honda Jazz) - yellow tyre pressure light coming on, which was a worry, as I had no handbook. The car drove beautifully throughout. Maps (as well as the aforementioned handbook) might have been provided. The 2000 Euros (security) asked for at check-in was a shock. I am still awaiting the refund (I was told to wait at least fifteen days). I left my sunglasses in the car, and e-mailed to ask whether I could get them sent to me (with me paying the postage) a week ago , but no reply so far.
Overall was okay. Bought a diffrent unsurance and they said its not valid. Must purchase their insurance.
