Dislike: Prior written detailed information about large insurance deductible deposit at the time of pickup. Lucky we had a card with a high limit. Better signage for location and vehicle return.
Renting with green motion most favourable. In car gps was invaluable driving in Scotland. Efficient

Like: Efficient pickup and drop off at airport. Avoided congestion at major car rental area of airport. Outstanding car made driving in the beautiful countryside enjoyable. Built in gps that was made available to us at pickup was invaluable. Dislike: Prior written detailed information about large insurance deductible deposit at the time of pickup.

“Cheating customers, Green Motion Edinburgh, horribe rental experience.”
About GREEN MOTION:2.0/10
Below is the summay of my recent car rental experience with Green Motion Edinburgh Airport. I was cheated by their staff from picking up till returing. I seek your investigation of their unethical behaviours.
1. I was forced to purchase zero excess when collecting my car. The reason is I cannot provide a credit card with pin. But after the zero excess purchase with them, then my credit without pin can be used for the 200 pounds deposit.
2. after purchase of zero excess, the staff at collection counter told me all the damages will be covered, no need to take photo of the car when collecting and returning the car. He even suggest me to cancel my 3rd party insurance with AXA.
3. When retuning the car, the manager told me the zero excess purchased with green motion is no longer valid and deducted over 1000 pounds from my credit card instantly despite that i refused to pay. His reasons are that i failed to report the scratch/dent on the door within 2hrs, which I did not even notice before returning the car. 2nd reason is the zero excess only covers 1st accident, which i was never aware of. I feel being cheated by the edinburgh airport staff at both the collection and return counters.
4. I had a flat tyre during my journey in the middle of nowhere and the car cannot move. i called the green motion emergency breakdown number 10 times and never connect through. the emergency number does not work! even during weekday day time! i was so desperate and it wasted my whole day to fix the car.
In total, this is the worst car rental experience in my life.
About QEEQ:8.0/10
booking platform is excellent and customer service is great. I just hope that easyrentcars could let users see others' review about the car rental companies, which could prevent the customers from falling into unethical company's tricks, like Green Motion.
Total Failure.
Vehicle was collected in the pouring rain and we had to trust that there was some damage on the plastic lip under the bumper.
When the vehicle was returned there was apparently more damage to this plastic lip at the bottom of the bumper in the form of a 45mm scratch.
I cannot see how anyone could distinguish the difference between what was apparently there already, which was not visible, and what is claimed has happened since the vehicle was in my care.
I am certain that no damage occurred to the vehicle whilst it was in my care.
Out of interest I phoned Kia in Edinburgh to see if the £277 which Greencar are claiming for this addition damage to the already damaged front plastic bumper lip was reasonable. The price for this component is £22.59p
This is simply insurance fraud and I am currently taking legal advice for which i shall be claiming my costs unless the £200 of my excess returned to me immediately.
The waiting time and handling documents takes very long. Counter was understaffed. Also the creditcard deposit is very high for such a small car and the refund takes a long time. This huge amount is blokking my creditcard for to many day's
I did not get the car I booked - i asked for a small car and got an SUV which I did not want as too big. I also ordered it full to full and got like for like which I did not like. Also it only had one bar of fuel so I had to find a petrol station before I could go on my journey, and with the delay in the pick up and this it meant I ended up driving on roads I did not know in the dark. Not impressed.
