We had to wait the entire afternoon to get the car! It wasted a whole precious day of our time. The staff had a bad attitude and tried to deceive us. We called the day before to confirm a car was available, but when we arrived, they said there were none! They forced us to take an old minibus, and the next day we had to go back to the airport to change the vehicle.

Ordered a transit van but given a Toyota Proace - significantly smaller and almost not fit for the purpose I hired for. Counter agent demanded I fill out a positive review of his service before giving me the van keys… only then to give me keys for a significantly smaller van than I ordered. Not impressed.

I had initially upgraded my vehicle expecting it to provide more convenience, but unfortunately, I lost 2 days and a night due to issues with the vehicle. I am grateful for the taxi provided to Edinburgh Airport to resolve the matter, but the delay impacted my plans for that day, night and following day. Additionally, I had taken out two rentals (a van and a car), but was only informed when picking up the van that this was not allowed because of company policy. This left me unable to complete everything I had planned and I need to come back at the end of this month. All of which would have been fine if it was not for the unfortunate timing and reasons for renting the vehicles, my mother had passed and I needed to move my life back down to London. Two very stressful situations. I’ve been a loyal Enterprise customer for some time now, frequently renting from your branches at Edinburgh/Stansted Airport, Perth, and Bow. The staff at all three locations – Cameron, Elliot, Jack (Edinburgh), Katy (Perth), and Tam, Jamil, and Rob (Bow) – went above and beyond to make up for the lost time, sleep, and money during this period. I truly appreciate their efforts. Especially Cameron, he really stood out to me and helped me immensely.

Rented a Mercedes C, but they gave me an Audi A4 with 51,000 miles. Two days later, the axle broke in a parking lot. Called the shop for a replacement, waited over an hour for AA to come. AA said they couldn't fix it, contacted the shop for a car change. Was told to drop off my family and go 56 km to another shop to get a replacement. Got a Mercedes A, the process took over 5 hours. Was charged over 500 pounds, issue still unresolved.

However, most websites start by saying that cars can be hired from £15 a day, which a big myth. £50 is closer to the truth. This is quite acceptable to me, so perhaps the websites can happily be more truthful! The staff at the National counter were very efficient, yet thorough.

The hiring process was so slow and the condition of the hiring company offices is terrible. I had to wait for over an hour to pick up my car. The staff of this company were so rude. The condition of the car was so bad. There was an engine fault on the car and the guy told me to add some liquid to fix it which I did but the fault remained. The car only had quarter of fuel which so inconvenient. I will never book a car with easirent again. Terrible experience overall.
