Quite good

After about a 20-minute bus ride from the airport, you reach the counter which is manned by just two people, making the service very slow. They try to sell you extra fuel and insurance. The first invoice they gave me did not match my pre-order amount. When I asked, they said I had purchased a full tank of fuel, but I hadn't signed any agreement for that. I insisted on a correction, and they issued a new invoice that matched my pre-order. They also kept pushing for insurance, but I showed them the bottom line of the QEEQ booking form, which made them stop talking about it. Be cautious as foreigners might try to take advantage of you. Do not rush when renting a car; understand everything before signing. In the UK, they give you the keys and paperwork at the counter, and you go pick up the car yourself. Do not simply drive off after collecting the keys; instead, take a pen, inspect the car thoroughly, and mark any scratches or damages on the form. Pay special attention to the wheels because the narrow roads make them easy to scratch, and rental companies often charge for wheel damage. Take photos with your phone as proof and have the staff sign and acknowledge any pre-existing damage. When returning the car, do not just leave if they say it’s OK; ask for a receipt. In my case, I returned the car in Edinburgh, was told everything was fine, but later they charged me £85 for a scratched wheel. Thankfully, I had bought additional insurance from QEEQ.

The car was great, I would have expected the offices to open earlier than 9am at an international airport but we were told what time so that was ok. However, the central London drop off is atrocious, there’s barely any signage to know where to go/park drop off keys, and I got more help with dropping the car off from the security guard than the scant Hertz staff.

I couldn’t use the Price drop protection for some reason, the link just took me round in circles on the app. Maybe it’s because I made the account after booking the car, I’ll see next time I guess.

Nice car, a small 4 door would have been better for storage and access to our luggage, but I possibly made a mistake in that regard as thought we booked a 4 door.

Easy to use once in UK. Couldn't get the booking completed from Australia

They were busy. I was on a tight timescale. Once I got seen they were brilliant, helpful and really nice. Bigger car than I was expecting. There was a small pile of rubbish still in the car from the otherwise impeccable car.

Absolutely fine.
