The staff where putting pressure on us spending more money on all sorts. This was not said when we booked. We ended up paying 171.95 Euros, was disgusting as we had our own insurance they said it didn't cover but it 100% did. As they said they didn't understand my argument they said is this amount or nothing. Then they charged huge amount on the credit card which I still wait to get back. Awful would never book again. We book cars at least 10 times a year and this was the worst yet due to adding money on top.

The car was new but the gear box had been clearly ragged about and reverse was easy to slip in to, few marks and scuffs but generally a good, large estate. The baby child seat that we paid over €50 for the week was useless. It was not secure using seatbelts and it was well used, it had no isofix base. The shuttle on collection did not have a car seat either and my baby had to sit on my knee. The pick up process was slow and painful. On both occasions (pick up and drop off) I heard many complaints about extra charges. We were also charged extra as the credit card was in my partner’s name and we had to add her as a driver, even though the t&c’s said if the cc was in the name of someone else, further ID may be required. Overall I think I will pay more in the future for collection at the airport, Surprice clearly need more staff and a smoother more streamlined pick up process.

Booking was very easy. Cancellation and price watch was simple and beneficial. I will use easyrentcars.com again

Booked a fiat 500l but on arrival got told all they had was a fiat panda because of this struggled to get suitcases in but luckily went with friends and they managed to get my suitcases in there car. Surprice wasn't bothered about this though I had booked a larger vehicle. I only excepted the fiat panda due to having 3 children with me and it being late at night. Would never hire another car from them!!

Great car, price and service. The bad reviews on here are from people who didn’t do their research up front. If you don’t buy Surprice insurance, they will require a hold of a couple thousand euros on your credit card. They will charge extra for “off-hours” pickup/drop. Understand these conditions and you won’t find a better deal in Faro.

Like: Had a great time, loving Portugal, people and service
Dislike: Nothing.
