Pros:

Drop-off was easy. They gave us an upgrade at pickup (though I actually wanted a smaller car having never driven on the left before and hearing that the roads are narrow...the roads are narrow!). But it was comfortable and an easy to drive standard car.

Cons:

It took a long time to get a bus to the Enterprise pick-up location. The person who showed us the car nearly forgot to give us the GPS that I had reserved (and we would have been totally lost without).

On return - after a short rental I was fully charged the excess for 1 item that there was no way I would have checked when assessing damage the black wall above the wheel was missing - I would never have thought to look there and 100% certain it did not fall off when I was driving. I feel it is a scam and a rip off. Will never rent from them again and will not recommend them to anyone I know.

I booked a compact SUV with room for 4 suitcases. What I received was so small that we spent the entire trip using the front seat for suitcase storage while my wife and 2 kids squashed into the back seat. Not only did this make the entire trip unbearably uncomfortable but also highly dangerous. I was also charged an extortionate amount for a 2 week rental ($2,000) Hertz are not a company I will be renting from again.

Pros:

Hey it was Hertz...I have never been disappointed with a rental from them.

Cons:

The idea of placing a huge hold ($5000) on my credit card because I waived the optional insurance, when I had certified proof of insurance and a statement of coverage from my credit card company (Barclay) was just silly and it could have put a damper on my ability to cover all my travel needs. The only reason it didn't was because I have a significant credit limit and another card that is similarly positioned and creditworthy.

6.4 Okay

Cons:

When we dropped of the car at the rental facility at the outskirts of the airport at 8:30pm, there was no more free shuttle bus to the airport. So they made us taking a taxi, which cost almost 10 EUR.

Pickup and drop off were easy. But they mistakenly charged me in-terminal drop off fee that shouldn’t be charged if I dropped the car at their office outside terminal. They also changed unidentified small money, $4.56, without explanation through the email. It will be settled but I’m a little annoyed.

Hello. I'm Gabriel and I'm 21. I booked and reserved a car in Dublin Airport for 7:00 pm 15/10/2022 VolksWagen Polo , I went to the front desk and they didn't let me drive the car for my years of age. In the Kayak it didn't show the age policy and restrictions. I paid additionally the Axa additional driving insurance for €9.99 I'll send u the screenshot for the proof that I didn't know about anything and I would like to get a refund from the car and the insurance if it's possible. My driver's Name is Gabriel Cruz. Let me know as soon as possible

Your Є2K deposit is unnecessary and a way to force people to buy the expensive insurance. Also, you took Є2,200 instead of actually Є2K. I also extended the day to return the car on and it was literally half the price of the previous 6 days. Disgusting.

Pros:

Upon pick up the staff was very friendly and helpful, but a bit slow. It would have been more helpful if we knew up front that we had to take a shuttle bus to the rental space in Dublin. The vehicle was definitely a great value as it held 6 people comfortably with luggage, and it drove well.

Returning the car was great - the rep was very helpful. And the car worked well. However, when picking up the car, we were hit with an unexpected 10 euro per day charge since I was providing my own insurance. At no point was this charged identified or explained during my booking on Kayak. This doubled the price of the rental. The rep when we picked up the car said the charge was mandatory.

Very hard to understand their additional cost. Felt like I was being taken advantage of in a foreign country.

Our cost tripled because of insure, even though the same day was contacted our credit card company and they sent us a letter via email they would not honor it. Wrong vehicle, was charged more for a vehicle that was less in value and smaller. GPS did not work, back up camera did not work. Don't use these guys.

Totally misleading, quoted $125 for the car then pushed us to take a bigger car and wouldn’t accept the insurance we already had. Total got to almost $1,000 after they added their insurance. Cancelled and went with Budget. Got a very nice car with insurance for $600. Stay far away!

The wait time at Dublin Airport is ridiculous. The staff push you to upgrade services, like adding unnecessary additional insurance, and to pay more for a car with an automatic. They also said they had photographed the damage on the car, but had not photographed all damage, I insisted they photograph the car completely.

I pay in advance for a full coverage insurance and at the counter for check in they told me that they didn’t accept the insurance I hired and charged me a ridiculous amount for a new insurance. They also charged a different price for the rental. The car was all scratched. Other than that, everything was okay.

Overall, the car was great. We did have a problem as we were renting it, though. I reserved an automatic transmission car, and, fortunately, I printed the reservation as soon as it was completed. When I went to pick the car up, they had changed the reservation to manual transmission.. As we were sitting there waiting for our car, a customer came in with the same exact issue. She went to get in her car and start driving and it was a manual transmission even though she had reserved an automatic transmission. This is a major problem for people who don’t know how to drive manual. it makes me wonder why this company doesn’t just keep more automatic transmission cars in stock if that’s what tourists need.

KAYAK

Cons:

I used my credit card’s insurance guarantee, but nowhere in the reservation did it say that to do do ALSO required a letter from my credit card company stating (1) that they cover the Republic of Ireland, (2) they will cover the lace loss if totaled, and (3) the last 4 numbers of my cc account. So at the Europcar desk I had to make that phone call, wade through a few phone trees, then talk to a couple of humans. I did get the letter (great service by my cc bank!) but I was lucky - that approval process may take up to 24 hours. The Europcar desk agent said this happens “quite a bit” with the brokers because you don’t provide the information about what each rental car company requires to use the cc insurance waiver benefits. I suggest adding a link to your process that will take your to the specific rental car company page for their CDW. I did use the link provided for my rental but it did not say I would have to get the letter etc.

3.2 Poor

Oct 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

I was quoted one price and then when I went to pick to pick the car up they made me pay 3.5x the price because I was booking on a Euro credit card not and American credit card. Then they have you walk 4 blocks and to the top of a parking garage to collect the car. God help you if you have bags or it’s raining. If it was cheap to rent I would t have minded walking. But at that outrageous cost you’d expect a little bit of service maybe bring the car to the rental shop?!

KAYAK

Pros:

Lovely car and easy to drive.

Cons:

I took the basic cover upon booking which is what I wanted. Upon picking up the car, it turns out that with basic cover, you have to pay €1500 (returnable) up front, on a credit card in my own name, OR €60 for more advanced insurance which you don’t get back. Well I don’t have €1500 on credit... but I have it in savings... and so therefore I was forced to pay for the higher cover. I’ve NEVER felt like I’ve been forced to do this with any other car hire company. The money with other care hire agents was chargeable if an accident occurs - which I am in total agreement with. It seems that this is simply a way of advertising a lower rate and locking the customer in. Really disappointed.

KAYAK

Pros:

We were traveling with 7people and renting 2 cars. We had 6 very large pieces of luggage and 6 small bags. I figured there was no way we would get 2, five passenger vehicles to move all that luggage and 7 people and Alamo/Enterprise gave us there 2 cars with the biggest trunks and it worked perfect.

Cons:

The X insurance is expensive but the piece of mind made it necessary since driving in Ire is chaotic. Also, rented GPS was worthless since it did not recognize places, only addresses and in Ireland, addresses are only a convenience. The cell apps work much better, best pay for cell service in Ire.

Please make it a obvious disclaimer that you need to have written proof of a third party insurance carrier and in certain countries that comes with a VERY steep deposit. It was so unethical the what they charged and how they made it so you had to pay them an additional $400-500 for their insurance if you could not pay the deposit. They stated it was REQUIRED to have insurance before they would release the vehicle. So in addition to the rental cost I had to pay a 5000 euro deposit (5000 is not a typo) and 95ish euros for gas that would be refunded when and if I returned it full. As I walked away from the counter the agents were laughing. It felt like I was doing a back alley deal instead of dealing with a legitimate and reputable business. Shame on you for putting on such pressure for travelers to your country (Ireland). For that main reason I cannot endorse or recommend this company at the Dublin Airport location. Other then the car sinking of smoke cover with heavy perfumed products the experience was normal. The car handled well, had the latest safety features, and keyless entry. I chose a smaller vehicle for fuel economy and am glad I did. It made travel outside of Dublin much easier. It took a couple of days to adapt to the left side driving. The return location was easy to find and the agent was pleasent and was efficient in looking over the car and once I got the all is good the shuttle bus was right there. A big THANK YOU to the shuttle driver was gracious and patient and help lift the luggage in and out and thoughtful enough to lift it onto the side walk at the terminal. For me the little things count because it shows people care and take their job serious. The customer service line they said is staffed 24/7 just rang and went to a busy signal. The email that was sent to make changes to your reservation was not helpful nor contacting kayak.com email address so I ended up paying for extra days. I did save a considerable amount booking through the site so you decide. I cannot speak to how long my 5095 ish euros "refund" will take since I just returned.

SCAM! They try and trick you with insurance! Yes, they say they accept your credit card as insurance HOWEVER you need to have a personalized policy with your name on it from your card company at the time you pick up your car. If not, you have to add their insurance, which is around double what the original cost is.

CarHire charged 1.5x the rental fee just for insurance. I was unable to use third party insurance despite what the booking inferred, and it is required, which I would always carry regardless; however, it is the fact that the booking was much more expensive than I had originally thought with no proper way to compare pricing since it occurred at pick up.

Expect to pay double what you originally book for - they’ll find a way to deny whatever insurance coverage you have so that you have to buy theirs
