great modern car, quick pickup and drop off, couldn't have been better

The booking was all pretty smooth, and very easy to locate and drop off, adding an extra for a driver for an extra day they charged for the whole rental period was a little annoying other than that would recommend!

We were stopped by the police for a routine stop. They found that the insurance sticker in the car was out of date. They were not best pleased, neither was I.

Fantastic service at cork airport. Very fancy upgrade for free. No hard selling insurance... Just a friendly soft encouragement! Couldn't be better.

The car did not take the luggage and people readily - I sized the vehicle from the description on the website. There were more marks on the car on collection than on the documentation.

Car first offered was not compatible to my Sat nav connection. Had to arrange an older car which had the required connection plug. Staff did all they could to sort this out for me. As a vital piece of equipment, this should be made clearer to people at the time of booking.

Budget est un très bon loueur de véhicule par contre l'agent vous prélève forcement le plein du véhicule à la prise de celui-ci et si vous ramener la voiture avec le plein cette somme nous est recrédité.

I was very unimpressed that the sales assistant tried to sell us additional insurance when it was clear we already had paid for additional insurance through QEEQ.COM. Indeed if I hadn’t read it carefully, I would have failed to notice the additional €1000. It was also helpful that QEEQ.COM had highlighted this as a potential issue- still a poor show from hertz in cork when late night covid 19 flight that had lost our luggage made us tired and weary! That said when I rang to change he drop off and had another representative they couldn’t have been more helpful and the office in Wexford were equally helpful

The agent behind the desk had an attitude problem at check in. I booked a small Caddy van for the week at Christmas as it was good value. I was told all they had was a long wheel base Transporter which was far larger than the caddy. I was told by the agent people only book vans when they need to carry large items... clearly this isn't the case or the VW Caddy wouldn't exist... The LWB Transporter was too big for what I needed, and not exactly an upgrade due to the increased running costs.

Everything was good, there was no any problem, we got a brand new car.

The website said there was a shuttle bus which almost made me rebook with a different company but the counter was actually in the terminal at the Hertz desk. I was very happy with the pick up. Car was brand new.

Like: Incredible price for three days, guy at airport service desk was laid back, very pleasant and there was no pressure, VW Polo was nearly new, in good condition and great little car
Dislike: When I returned the car, I couldn't find anyone to check it in so I went to reception. The guy asked if everything was ok and took the keys; trusting I had not damaged the car. I realised afterwards that they were still able to take money from my credit card so I checked my card for a few days afterwards. Everything was fine but it would have been even better if I'd had it confirmed earlier. Not a problem but that's the only thing I can think of where the experience could have been even better. I will hire a car again through Easy Rent / Thrifty when I'm in Ireland and next time I will be familiar with the procedure. Thank you

Pick up counter man very attentive and helpful. Drop off unclear went to the drop off point, note on counter saying closed go to the main airport desk.

The one thing I noticed was that the car was not full when I rented it. There was slightly more than 3/4 of fuel in the tank rather than full.

4 times the rental was charged to my credit card.... an interest free load taken by Easirent!!! Interest free for 3 months. A small black "Smuge" id'd on the car cost me €320:00!!!! An outrageous RIP OFF!!! Now I also pay the additional fees also. Would NEVER use this company again.

The car was awful, dirty on the outside and inside and the man who served me was not pleasant and also when he collected me from the airport used his mobile phone while driving. Also accused me of smoking in the vehicle (which I did not) directly after putting out a cigarette and sitting directly into the car.

The agent on site, Robert, despite making me wait 15 minutes at the airport for pick-up, was pleasant when I picked up the car, presumably as he was trying to up sell me all the various extras. The same individual was a completely different character when I dropped the car off. When inspecting the car, he almost immediately pointed out a scratch on the back-left wheel arch which he conveniently failed to find when I picked up the car. His immediate reaction when I said the scratch was did not occur during my rental was that it was not on the check-in sheet, therefore I was liable for the repair, and would therefore lose my €2,100 excess. The speed at which he went for the back-left wheel arch suggests he knew the scratch was there already. Presumably he is on commission to encourage him to charge customers. Luckily for me, I took photos of the car when I picked it up so I was able to clearly show that the scratch was on the car prior to my rental, much to his visible disappointment. The car I rented had numerous scratches on it. It was not cleaned properly ahead of my rental, inside or out. The attitude of the agent was abysmal. The fact he attempted to scam me out of my full €2,100 deposit left me feeling indignant. In future I won’t make the same mistake by using Easirent. I’ll be sure to use Thrifty, Budget or one of the other more reputable rental companies. I’ve been renting cars regularly for 15 years and I’ve never had such bad service. I would suggest you reconsider using this company going forward. Clearly I’m not the only customer who’s had an experience like this; https://goo.gl/maps/8XZgawzKfU25ZSTU9

We had a very frustrating experience where we were not allowed to take the car off the lot without purchasing additional insurance, despite showing them proof of coverage. This has been an ongoing process to get this money refunded.

Dislike: did not like that i had to pay 19e per day for insurance as credit card and excess did not match, that was a surprise i could have done without. good car though and easy on petrol.

No it was a Qashqui not a Tuscon and wouldn't fit 5 passengers. The staff said we need to take out extra insurance but I said we had done it with you and we were told it wasn't good enough although it was the same. We also had to use a credit card for £2000 excess incase of an accident but were told had we gone direct we wouldn't need to.
