Ireland is an island nation overflowing with tradition, culture and history. Home of many great authors, the great pubs, visitors will no doubt have plenty to see and do during their visit. Dublin is the country’s capital city, and a place with world-class museums, art galleries and vibrant entertainment. Heading out into the lush Irish countryside you’ll find green rolling hills and the Wild Atlantic Way – great for driving along. For some authentic Irish charm, visit some rural villages, some of which even speak Gaelic. Cork is another Irish city popular amongst tourists for its student atmosphere and lively entertainment

" Comments as above. I have photos of both cars, if you would like to see. "
" I am arrived at Europcar around 8 pm on the Friday night. There was only one desk open., although plenty of staff hovering in the background. I got to desk after 20/25 minutes wait. I was told I didn't have full Insurance cover even though I paid extra with Autoeurope. I paid 1,800 Euros deposit and was told there were 4 damages to car. When I found the car it was absolutely filthy on the body. Covered in thick mud. Impossible to see damages. I returned to the office and had to queue again. "Sorry about that Madame. We'll give you another car". When I finally found the car, it was dark. I found two damages , as stated. The following morning I noted about 6 patches of scratches on the bonnet. I took photos and sent with e mail to Europcar. My week's holiday was ruined, worrying about these damages. When I brought car back, they said it was ok. In summary, terrible customer service .and poor cars. I have previously rented with Europcar in Cork and everything was perfect "

" The Auto Europe website did not make insurance requirements clear. I felt this was so we had to spend more money at pick up and be forced to use their insurance. The requirement for the international driving permits was also not clear on the website. We obtained the permits and brought them with us, but no one ever asked to see them. Apparently we would have only needed them if we got pulled over or got in an accident. "
" Pros: -car was ready at the time requested, and was exact make, model, hybrid, automatic that we requested -drop off was quick and easy with an immediate shuttle ride to airport terminal Cons: -car was very dented and scraped up. When I picked up car, they wanted me to sign off on the damages without even coming outside to look at car with me. I took my own photos and videos of damages before leaving lot. -I was not allowed to use my own car insurance through my credit card even though I brought proof of it, and they insisted I had to use their insurance which ended up costing 167 euro for a 5 day rental. Very frustrating and cost more than anticipated. -at drop off, the fuel line was just slightly below the completely full level and they charged me 25 euro for this. Very frustrated at that. I would rent from another company next time. "

" So after the above incident, I had a call with AutoEurope for refund but the process is very slow and they are saying we need to get confirmation from the carhire so I reached out to them but they said If we receive anything from them, we will definitely confirm to them. Also they said since you booked through 3rd party you should reach out to them not us. So here I am struggling between both the companies. Bad experience, people are very kind and good while booking but when it comes to refund, not responsive and no accountability. "
" Bad, they cancelled my booking after going because of credit card/debit card change so they made a completely new booking and given the new car but they didn't mention about the AutoEurope booking needs to be cancelled since we are booking as a new. No proper guidance at all. Later I reached out to them asking for refund of AutoEurope booking then they said we can't help on that, you need to ring AutoEurope and request for refund so I asked then why didn't you mention this before so they were saying not that responsive on that.

" CarHire (Europcar) REFUSED to issue a car without paying for extra insurance. We spent over an hour with the agent (who kept telling us he was due to go on his break!) only to consistently be refused a vehicle. We had no access to a a phone so had no choice but to either cancel the booking (we he offered to do) or pay extra (almost as much as the hire) for extra insurance. A total rip off and scam!!!

" I've had several good and much more reasonably priced car rental experiences with Auto Europe in the past, but ending up paying an over exaggerated 75 Euros per day this time for a SUV car I didn't reserve and which didn't appear on the written contract between us has turned me off. The feeling I'm left with is that there must be a much better communication and collaboration between Auto Europe and it's partnes overseas to ensure greater customer confidence and satisfaction. "
" To cut it short we are disappointed with our experience of our car booking with you at Dublin airport this time as we ended up paying a total of 746.90 Euros for a Seat SUV car which we never reserved in our initial Auto Europe contract PTC 1192092 and were quite disturbed to hear the assistant behind the Europcar desk insisting that Europcar never have and never stock the Ford Focus Estate offered on your very own website in their fleet. I find this incomprehensible that Auto Europe are not aware of which exact cars their partners at the Dublin airport have for their clients when they arrive. (Especially as the contract was done and paid more than a month before our arrival in Ireland). The Europcar assistant maintained that he never stocks the Ford Focus Estate we reserved and he proceeded to say that he could only offer us a higher range more expensive car (Seat SUV) costing an extra 15 Euros per day on top of the already exhorbitant 596.90 Euros we initially paid to you for the Ford Focus Estate. Nonetheless, I swallowed and paid this higher unexpected cost as this time my wife and I had come to Ireland with two retired good neighbour friends visiting the country for the first time and we didn't want to upset them or make them wait too long for the car after their flight. At this point I feel justified to ask for a refund from Auto Europe for this 150 extra Euros which we ended up paying for this Seat SUV higher range car which we never reserved. Please reimburse it to the same account from which you received the initial 596.90 Euros. Another much smaller thing I wish to inform you about is that when we initially received the car keys on May 23 the assistant behind the desk told us to drop it off on June 2 at the Europcar area just in front of the main airport entrance doors. He never verbally mentioned that there was any fee to drop it off there. And indeed, in my decades of renting out cars at Dublin Airport I was never asked to pay for drop offs. But to our great disgust, immediately after turning the car off at the Europcar parking area on the June 2 drop off, another young man suddenly approached me before I could even get out of the car demanding 35 Euros to drop the car off. Naturally I was quite shocked as I had never experienced this in decades of renting out cars with Auto Europe, Europcar and others at this very same spot. My wife and Belgian friends visiting Ireland for the first time were also indignant and said they never saw such a thing. I suggest that your future customers should be informed about this especially as the renting costs are already quite high. Why are Europcar slapping more unexplained expense onto the client when they arrive to drop the car off? Not very nice or friendly at all, and certainly not a very good or clever way to win new customers! Thanks for your attention to this. "

" At booking I was lured into buying their insurance which I did thinking I need not have to put in the high safety deposit or the need of a credit card as a must. Still don't understand why a credit card only is needed and not a debit card which makes it impossible or overhead for someone without a credit card "
" What I don't understand is the credit card / debit card dilemma in holding deposit. I had to buy their insurance to allow me use my debit card for deposit hold. Otherwise they can't hold a high amount on debit card which is ridiculous. "

" Nothing wrong with Auto Europe "
" I will never rent with Eurocar or Carhire again. Counter staff pushy and arrogant. Waited nearly 20mins for shuttle bus pick up. Car had so many scratches and I was expected to record and submit new ones, raining when I collected car so videoed it but didn't have time to make comparisons. Car drove lovely though. Queried where it said 'is car to be drove outside the island of Ireland', I asked if N.I was included they said it wasn't !!! It would be an extra charge. I said so change the wording to Rep. of Ireland. Drop off was to be open at 5am but didn't open until 5.08am, I waited ten minutes. I had words at the same counter 5 months earlier and sword never with Eurocar again but didn't know Carhire was the same. "

" I didn't like the feeling of been treated at a lower standard than a customer that could have booked directly with Thrifty. You should do something about this. "
" The counter staff was very unhelpful, and not customer oriented at all. He basically kept stating some policies without listening to me, and trying to understand my experience at the time. He treated me at a lower standard because I had booked through a third party. He said that my Revolut Bank issued Visa credit card won't be accepted, which I found shocking and frustrating, firstly because being a Visa credit card, the issuing bank should not matter, and it was actually the first time that I got any problem with the Visa card, just because of the issuing bank. And second, because this "policy" was not advertised anywhere, not on the website where I booked the car, but also not even in the counter, where a sign with Visa card as accepted car was displayed, no mentions to banks at all. At the end, I still had, by chance an older Visa card issued by a different bank, that barely had the credit to cover the amount hold, and that I'm about to cancel. On top of the issue with the card, I had to provide in 3 different occasions my personal details, including email address. All this information was already provided in the webform when I booked the car, and it was frustrating to have to do it many more times at the counter. Again, when I mentioned this to the staff, he just said the details were not there form him, without trying to understand why I was complaining about it. "

" I had reserved & paid for an Intermediate SUV. I was provided with a Compact SUV 19th Dec. I felt the Girl at the desk in Dublin was aware of this down grade and rushed me from the desk before I could make comment. I called Enterprise (General Number) the following day who told me a Nissan Juke was not an intermediate SUV (thinking this was a general enquiry). I contacted Enterprise Dublin Airport (Finally got through after a few days of trying), initially they tried to convince me that an Nissan Juke was an intermediate until I advised them of my phone call with Enterprise office), they subsequently apologies and changed my car on the 23rd of Dec. Which I had to pickup in Limerick, Enterprise offered €50 credit for this inconvenience which I have yet to see. I dropped off the Juke with 15/16 of a tank of Fuel, was provided an empty tank on the Peugeot 3008, I requested it similarly fueled and was advised that they would provide a fuel credit of €50 as they had no one to release to fill the tank, again I have not seen this. The car was returned early on the 27th December with half a tank of fuel, Enterprise returned the €178 unused full Insurance I had paid. Though I was happy with the quality of the cars provided, I had to drive for 5 days with a car less than what I had paid for, this was disappointing. I feel Enterprise capitalize and take full advantage on the travel weary passenger who arrives at their desk. "

If not I will cancel my next booking (with Thrifty) and will not book with Thrifty again. "

" Rental conditions could be more clearly indicated. "
" There was an issue with the credit card that we couldn't lock the required 1500€ cover. As a result we had to pay 144€ to reduce the cover limit to 300€. The price is determined based upon the no of renting days which doesn't make sense as the excess is the same whatever the rental lenght is. Considering the renting of the car was around 70€ and already included the cover for excess reimbursement from autoeurope, I found this was a total steal. We tried giving another credit card but they didn't accept it because it was under another name. Reflecting on this afterwards we think adding a name driver would have costed us less but they didn't accept that solution neither. I regret we paid the extra money, we should just have walked to another provider. "

" In the future it would be appreciated if Auto Europe was to be very clear about the CDW option during the online signup process, then I would not feel misled about price. "
" The think I didn't like was that the online booking process was not upfront about the inclusive insurance policy. i.e. I wanted a policy excluding the CDW since I already had coverage. This fine print issue came up only after I was at the counter to pick up and asked to turn down the CDW only to be told it was mandatory to have because it was in the booking made with Auto Europe and could not be changed. I felt like this was underhanded and like a bit of a trap, and had to pay more money to reduce the deductible to a level that my policy already had. "

" I have found Auto-Europe excellent to deal with at all times. I have used your services four times this year but following my experience with Thrifty I intend to avoid car rental completely. If I ever am forced by circumstances to rent a car I will take the full insurance package to protect myself from the rental company "
" I returned the car on Friday September 13 and heard nothing from the company until, on Thursday September 26, I noticed they had deducted €719.23 from my account. I contacted the office in Shannon and told me there was damage to the car. That was the first I heard of it. The did not have the courtesy to inform me there was a problem and secondly that they were taking money from me. I contacted my credit card company and they recalled the payment into a holding account pending resolution. I spoke to a member of the headquarters staff the following day, Friday, September 27, and he said there was damage to the underside left of the front bumper. He said he would review the issue and get back to me. On Saturday September 28 a Mr Bryan Goldsmith from Thrifty/Hertz emailed me to say they had reviewed the case and they would reduce the cost of repair to €595.32. They sent a photograph of the so-called damage which amounted to a scuff mark on the underside of the front spoiler. How that could have cost more than €5 to repair beats me. Anyway, I am handing it over to my solicitor as I regard this as nothing short of extortion. I work as a journalist writing for a national newspaper and I intend to highlight my experience and warn people about this highly questionable practice. I will be recommending to people that they get the bus, the train or a taxi but to avoid car rental "

" this was possibly the worst hire car I ever had. It was old, with high mileage and no mod coms, did not run well, was not very clean inside and out, And very very expensive - especially for what it was. I know i did hire an automatic, in high season, at the last minute. But this Peugeot 108 with almost 100,000km on the clock really was not acceptable -- apart from the fact there was nothing else available. So i had no choice, and feel really ripped off. The more as I was kind of cajoled to take out insurance and pre-paid petrol, which add another 50% on the already hefty fee. In short: not happy, at all! "

" I am unhappy with my overall experience with Enterprise rental car. The 1st car they provided me a Nissan Micra broke down on the motorway outside Tuam the evening of July 19th at 7:45pm. I called Enterprise and was directed to roadside assistance through their telephone service. Roadside Assistance advised that they would send someone out to me, but that in the meantime that I still needed to call Enterprise. I called Enterprise again and again, no response, no return call for my voicemail message either. Tow truck arrived 2 hours later and towed me to the Enterprise car center outside of Galway City which was closed for the evening. This Enterprise office/center was in the back of an Industrial Estate. The tow truck driver advised me to wait in the car until a Security Guard came to pick up the key. I still had not heard back from Enterprise. The tow truck driver advised Roadside Assistance of this situation and called Enterprise as well. This was 10pm at night, the tow truck driver took off, no security guard came and nobody from Enterprise had yet called me. I called again. I finally received a call from Katie who was located somewhere in Galway, but didn't come to help, she advised that the Dublin office had to take care of the situation as I picked up the car in Dublin. Michael from the Dublin office finally called me back – again nice person but was totally unhelpful. Told me to get a Taxi – I had to remind him several times that I didn't know where I was – I didn't have an address for my location and did not have the number of a Taxi. Asked him to call me a taxi – he did not. At this point I was extremely concerned for my safety – I was in a back lot of an Industrial Estate with nothing only closed businesses around me. I was scared. This was approaching 11pm at night. This should never happen!!! Michael finally told me that nobody would be out to collect the key and again told me to get a Taxi. Again, I had to remind him that I did not know where I was. At this point I had also missed my evening events and my friends were extremely concerned for me. Finally, a friend left the event that I was scheduled to attend and came and rescued me. Not alone was I impacted by Enterprise's lack of customer support and concern; it impacted my friends evening as well. Michael from the Dublin office said he would follow up to ensure that I got to a hotel safely- I'm still waiting for that call! Furthermore, he told me that he would arrange to have a vehicle ready for me when the office opened at 8am the next day. He did not! I waited at my hotel the morning of July 20th in case I would miss a call from Enterprise. I waited from 8am – 11am and never received any updates or even a call. I missed another event as a result. Finally at 11am I called them and I was told to go back out to the Enterprise Center to pick up a car. I asked to be picked up. They told me to take a Taxi that I would be reimbursed. I asked that the office pay the Taxi when I got there, they said they couldn't do that as I had picked up the car in Dublin. Enterprise should never advertise that they pick you up – It's not true. Finally at 12:3pm on the 20th I'm given a replacement car. I finally got a call from Aishling a supervisor in the Dublin Office at approximately 4:30pm to apologize. I told her that all staff were very pleasant but not one person really helped me or showed any consideration for the situation. In order to make things right she said that she would reimburse me 2 days rental and that it would be processed in 7-10 days. I have not yet received that reimbursement. In addition, she told me to keep the receipt for my Taxi and that it would be reimbursed to me when I returned the car to Dublin. I returned the car to Dublin last Monday (August 12th). I told the young man who greeted me that I was due a reimbursement for both the 2 days rental and the taxi fare.

" I am unhappy with my overall experience with Enterprise rental car. The 1st car they provided me a Nissan Micra broke down on the motorway outside Tuam the evening of July 19th at 7:45pm. I called Enterprise and was directed to roadside assistance through their telephone service. Roadside Assistance advised that they would send someone out to me, but that in the meantime that I still needed to call Enterprise. I called Enterprise again and again, no response, no return call for my voicemail message either. Tow truck arrived 2 hours later and towed me to the Enterprise car center outside of Galway City which was closed for the evening. This Enterprise office/center was in the back of an Industrial Estate. The tow truck driver advised me to wait in the car until a Security Guard came to pick up the key. I still had not heard back from Enterprise. The tow truck driver advised Roadside Assistance of this situation and called Enterprise as well. This was 10pm at night, the tow truck driver took off, no security guard came and nobody from Enterprise had yet called me. I called again. I finally received a call from Katie who was located somewhere in Galway, but didn't come to help, she advised that the Dublin office had to take care of the situation as I picked up the car in Dublin. Michael from the Dublin office finally called me back – again nice person but was totally unhelpful. Told me to get a Taxi – I had to remind him several times that I didn't know where I was – I didn't have an address for my location and did not have the number of a Taxi. Asked him to call me a taxi – he did not. At this point I was extremely concerned for my safety – I was in a back lot of an Industrial Estate with nothing only closed businesses around me. I was scared. This was approaching 11pm at night. This should never happen!!! Michael finally told me that nobody would be out to collect the key and again told me to get a Taxi. Again, I had to remind him that I did not know where I was. At this point I had also missed my evening events and my friends were extremely concerned for me. Finally, a friend left the event that I was scheduled to attend and came and rescued me. Not alone was I impacted by Enterprise's lack of customer support and concern; it impacted my friends evening as well. Michael from the Dublin office said he would follow up to ensure that I got to a hotel safely- I'm still waiting for that call! Furthermore, he told me that he would arrange to have a vehicle ready for me when the office opened at 8am the next day. He did not! I waited at my hotel the morning of July 20th in case I would miss a call from Enterprise. I waited from 8am – 11am and never received any updates or even a call. I missed another event as a result. Finally at 11am I called them and I was told to go back out to the Enterprise Center to pick up a car. I asked to be picked up. They told me to take a Taxi that I would be reimbursed. I asked that the office pay the Taxi when I got there, they said they couldn't do that as I had picked up the car in Dublin. Enterprise should never advertise that they pick you up – It's not true. Finally at 12:3pm on the 20th I'm given a replacement car. I finally got a call from Aishling a supervisor in the Dublin Office at approximately 4:30pm to apologize. I told her that all staff were very pleasant but not one person really helped me or showed any consideration for the situation. In order to make things right she said that she would reimburse me 2 days rental and that it would be processed in 7-10 days. I have not yet received that reimbursement. In addition, she told me to keep the receipt for my Taxi and that it would be reimbursed to me when I returned the car to Dublin. I returned the car to Dublin last Monday (August 12th). I told the young man who greeted me that I was due a reimbursement for both the 2 days rental and the taxi fare. He didn't know anything about it, said he couldn't do it there and would email the Accounts department re: both items. I asked to be copied on that email request. He verified my email address and assured me that I would receive a copy of that email – I did not! To date I have not received any follow up from Enterprise and have not received my reimbursement for the 2 missed days, or the taxi fare of 18Euro. I am really upset with the whole situation and how I was treated. I'm always an understanding and patient person, but this situation has tested my limits.

" The vehicle was in poor condition mechanically. It took several minutes to start at the beginning of each day that we had it. When we notified Flizzr about this half way through our rental period we were expecting the vehicle to be replaced, it was not. The vehicle was low in oil, and we had to stop to purchase oil to put into it. "

" Good to find a cheap price quickly, but I was not happy that Alamo did not get the prepaid details correctly. "
" Alamo did not have the Auto Europe prepaid details when I picked up the car and tried to bill me for a standard contract at twice the price. It was sorted out quickly but the Alamo supervisors were useless. ( The Alamo main computer system had the full contract details including prepayment, but the shortened version on the agent's mobile device did not). The Alamo agent who booked me in was very helpful and I am grateful to her for picking up and resolving the issue. The vehicle was clean and was reliable, but the engine vibrated badly when idling and the bodywork had many small damages (which the rep recorded conscientiously at collection) "

" As a regular customer with normally good experiences, that last was not the case with the last rental. I asked for a particular model they had in the category I was renting that had a good entertainment system that was compatible with my phone and I was given a standard basic model with none of the extras like the model I rented before. I asked to change for another car and was told nothing else was available. Another customer arrived after me and recieved the high spec model I was looking for and left with the car. I asked about this to the agent that told me nothing else was available when it clearly was and his response was he was a gold member customer. I never experienced this with any other rental agency and therefore will discontinue my services with Thrifty and Hertz in the future as the agent was working with Hertz and could have better customer skills.

" I like AutoEurope a lot, use it exclusively to book rentals in Europe (which I do a few times a year). I feel like it's very transparent - you know what you're getting, you get what you paid for, the vouchers work every time and everywhere I've tried to use them (multiple times at several agencies in each of Ireland and France). And there's a clear financial benefit over booking directly with the agencies. "
" It was OK, but the car was a bit on the small side: the trunk only had room for two suitcases (barely - one medium, one small), and because we decided to add a third small case, ended up having to put it into the passenger seat. It felt pretty cramped. Part of the problem is that when you're choosing the size of car, it says "Like Nissan Micra". But I live in the US, where the Micra is not available. So it actually was a bit smaller than I would choose next time, and what would help is if you could give comparisons using models available where the user lives. After all, with Thrifty, I know it's not really going to be Nissan Micra or Qashqai, it's going to be a Hyundai or Dacia Duster. So I'm not hung up on getting a particular model, just want to make sure it's the right size. "

" Excellent service, I arrived late at Dublin terminal 1 but was reassured by autoeurope customer service, true enough, the Thrifty counter was open and the car was ready to be picked up at the adjacent car park. The car was in excellent condition, there were cosmetic blemishes but they were all properly recorded in the Hertz web page. The M50 toll charges were automatically paid for and charged without an additional service fee and Hertz's Diesel was far cheaper than at a petrol station. "

" When I lived in Ireland, Auto Europe was my preferred holiday rental company for European trips, due to competitive rates and especially the excellent additional insurance cover provided, however we usually opted for other Auto Europe partners than Hertz. I rarely opted for renting with Hertz, as they seemed to be consistently more expensive, with more restrictive rental conditions. In this case, we were happy to rent with Hertz through Auto Europe because of the competitive deal offered. Certainly it was a very positive counter experience when picking up the van, the official looking after us was extremely professional and helpful. As mentioned above, we were very happy to be allowed to add a third driver for a couple of days without additional charge. In the end the only negative note was when we returned the van - due to not being informed by the Hertz staff member about the additional charges levied -while the charges are legitimately within the terms and conditions of rental, the 'exit' experience could definitely have been better simply by being reminded or informed that the charges would be levied. In summary - very happy as previously with Auto Europe - and more impressed than previously with Hertz, except for the end-of-rental experience. "
" Counter staff on pick-up - excellent - and very helpful with enquiries re additional drivers - very impressed to be allowed a third driver for a couple of days without charge. This rental was a 9-seater for four weeks so understandably quite expensive, but we were happy with the deal we purchased. However, due to attending a family funeral at the end of our trip we ended up returning the van a couple of hours late - the late charge was extremely expensive. Although I accept the charge was within the terms and conditions, I was disappointed the Hertz official receiving the car didn't mention that this very significant charge was being levied-being informed of it would at least have reduced the shock factor when the credit card bill arrived.

" Auto Europe - v good Thrifty - not so good "
" - Vehicle had marks on it that were not highlighted on inspection report. Had to find someone in the rental yard, no body arounsd so it took a while, to address. - When I got in the car and turned it on the car was only 3/4 full with fuel, no time left to report this as I had already lost time trying to report the undocumented marks, again no one around if I had the time, so, got caught to fill up the tank by this extra amount I did not use as car had to be returned with the tank "full". - Extra day charged to my credit card as I returned the car at 2pm, the time stated on the Rental Record. On checking I was told that, as, I'd collected the car early, ahead of my original reserve time of 2pm. I collected at 1.20pm I was charged the extra day as I'd over ran. NO ONE told me I had to return the car earlier and the rental agreement I signed at the counter has "Collection time" 13.18 "Return Time" 14.00. My receipt has return time at 13.56 and I was waiting a good while to have the car checked back in as there was no body in the returns area when I arrived. "

" With the rental car company, the experience was really bad. "
" When parked at a gas station in Ireland. The car got slightly hit with a door from the car parked beside us. We called the police and got all the information from the person who hit the car. We took pictures with the rental's car company camera. We also submitted pictures and videos from our own devices. Even-though I was not at fault, a few days after the drop-off, Thrifty charged us with almost 800 Euros.(When Thrifty sent the breakdown of repairs; they repaired the whole car for other damages as well as adding towing fees; which I don't know why and where all of those came from). I contacted directly my Credit Card company to work on the insurance from their side and claimed that money back to me. 2 months later my bank and credit card could give me my money back. After-all; This was a really bad experience. If it was not thanks to my bank and credit card coverage they would have never returned that money back to me. In addition; Thrifty contacted me back 4 or 5 months after, telling me that this case had been solved and would deal directly with my Credit Card provider. I still rent cars quite often, but have always avoided renting any cars from Hertz or Thrifty. I would never recommend to anyone use this company. "

" I will once I see how my feedback is handled "
" Really fed up that the car I was allocated on arrival was one with no seat Height adjustment effectively making it undrivable for me. The last time this happened I was immediately allocated a car with the necessary adjustment at no extra cost. On this occasion however that was just not happening and the desk clerk got into a explanation about car classes A,B,C.... and pointing to a visual vehicle selector sheet etc. ... The upshot was if I wanted a driveable car I had to upgrade at by extra daily charge of E15 to a larger car. I failed to see the relevance in the clerk telling me that he didn't have seat height adjustment in his own car except to exemplify his inability to stand inside my specific shoes and predicament. Given my previous experience of the no quibble change to a model with the necessary seat height adjustment I was left feeling exploited on this occasion. Since return I can find no Thrifty/Hertz or AutoEurope websites that gives information about which classes of cars have seat HEIGHT adjustment. I'm not a car geek and I really don't care about cars more than knowing whether it has 4 wheels and I can drive it. In my view there is a big gap in accessibility, in terms of your services, for those of us who need this type of information. I would really appreciate greater transparency and/or coherence between the car descriptors given on hire websites which all seem to use the terms mini, economy, midsize, large, estate/suv, luxury... and a car class system A,B,C..... used at the rental desks. So now, I respectfully request that you signpost me to the car models in the lower economy/ compact/ mini/ and midsize categories that have seat HEIGHT adjustment as standard. I would also appreciate if you could advise me how much autonomy desk clerks have in determining how to handle my situation should it arise again and in particular whether, in general, there is an element of 'commission payment' in how their performance is rewarded. Thank you. "

This was offered to the lady when she first did not 'see' the insurance package on her screen at pickup, but was then quickly resolved.

" I think that AutoEurope are provided a good service, especially for those of us who want to buy excess insurance. However, it is clear that companies like Hertz/Thrifty view AutoEurope with some hostility, as in their dealings with me, they continually tried to shift the blame for the situation onto AutoEurope, who clearly were not responsible. Yes, I had misread the AutoEurope site and thought the navigation device would be free, but no, I hadn't signed anything before actually being misled and accepting that I would pay for the device. Thrifty knows damn well that I am entitled to change my mind between the time I request the device on AutoEurope's site and the time I pick up the device, but they pretended not to know if I would be paying for the device, suggesting instead that AutoEurope may or may not be charging me for it. I told them that AutoEurope had not charged me for it, and even then, Thrifty still didn't tell me it was they themselves who would actually be making the charge. Misleading is about the nicest thing I can say about that. "
" The problem was not with the car, but with the treatment I received from Thrifty/Hertz staff at Cork Airport. I had asked for a navigation device on the AutoEurope website when making my reservation, thinking it was free. When I was at the Thrifty/Hertz desk to collect, I made it abundantly clear that I did not want a navigation device if it cost anything. Rather than supporting me, as you might expect a decent customer service person to do, the Thrifty staff misled me into thinking I wasn't paying anything and got me to sign the contract. It was only a day before returning the car that I realised I had actually been charged for the navigation device. I complained to the supervisor on returning the car, but he basically aggressively made me out to be a liar and refused to give me a refund. I eventually did get a refund, after contacting Hertz Ireland's claims department, but the whole experience had been soured by then. These two members of staff did quite the opposite of what they should have been doing - instead of listening to me and helping me, the first went out of her way to mislead me, and the second thought he could bully me into submission. I was flabbergasted at these sad people and left wondering if this could really be their company's policy and sales model. Luckily I found someone who was prepared to help me, though somewhat reluctantly, at the Hertz Ireland claims office. Also a shout out for the guy who actually handed me the car and to whom I returned it. He was perfectly pleasant. "

Como no la llevamos a Irlanda, nos obligaron a pagar un seguro extra de 24€/día, al final más caro que el propio alquiler. Además se pusieron muy bordes, que era eso o no alquilarlo.

" I chose Thrifty because it seemed to be the most economical option I saw on Internet. However I am now unhappily having to deal with the fact that what I thought was going to be a complete deal for 401 euro turned out to be almost 3 times that amount. I also had the inconvenience of driving to Shannon to pick up and drop off as I thought it was the best financial deal but it turns out I might just as well have hired from a dealer in Limerick where I was staying. In South Africa where I live if one is offered an upgrade it is a free upgrade. I would not have agreed to the upgrade if I thought there was a cost involved. "

We had the availability for sixt to hold the 1500e excess as per our agreement yet they refused. We were charged an unexceptable amount of non refundable money to rent the car we had already paid for. The only other option was to walk away with no car (obviously ruining plans) and lose the money already paid. I rang autoeurope on 2 occasions and found the second customer service representative to be incredibly rude and refused to allow me to speak to her manager. We were trying to some to a reasonable resolution yet we were met with repetition of the same information and no attempt to help us. I am disgusted with the service by all parties (excluding Shannon on the desk at sixt as she did everything in her power to assist). Terrible customer service and an unacceptable way to carry out business. "

" It's not fully enterprise their fault but when I booked it trough autoeurope it stated "full to full" for the fuel. When I came there the fuel was empty. We had to return it with the same amount and obviously couldn't return it with the same amount so we lost money on that. It also stated in the terms and conditions that the deposit is €500. When I came there the deposit was €1650 and unfortunately that would've been over my limit so I had to purchase an insurance of €52 so that the deposit dropped down to €250. I already had a third party insurance so this was again an absolute waste of money due to misinforming. The car itself was from 2016 with 80.000km. The suspension or shock absorber were extremely bad as there were loud bangs throughout the entire drive. It was very unpleasant. Overall I absolutely didn't like the rental experience which is a shame. I have rented a lot of times with a bunch of different companies but this one is far out the worst. Which I find a shame. "

" when i brought the car back i was told there were two pieces of damage to the car which enterprise claim i caused. in the 2 days i had the car i drove on the motorway and parked in open spaces so could not have caused damage below the drivers door and near rear wheel as i wasn't near any kerbs. the damage was obviously there when i took the car but i didn't notice as it was low down and not visible when standing close to the car. i feel very ripped off.

" there was a mistake with my booking so i contacted autoeurope as soon as i realised, the person i spoke to tried to be helpful but couldnt find me a vehicle in a suitable location to fix my problem so in the end i asked was it possible to cancel my reservation and the charges so i could make my trip on another date when a suitable vehicle would be available in a suitable location( i have a very young baby so travelling long distance to collect a vehicle was out of the question for me). the lady i spoke to assured me that the reservation would be cancelled and that i would not be charged but on checking my credit card account a few days later i found i HAD been charged and the reservation had not been cancelled, even though i actrually never did pick up any vehicle and called both autoeurope and keddy the day before to inform them of the mix up and stated i would not be collecting the vehicle. in summary, i cant think of any way in which i could be more disatisfied with autoeurope and keddy and i will be strongly recommending anyone i know against using services provided by either company.

" I am always very happy with my Auto Europe bookings. Great Value and choice of cars and rental companies. "
" As always Sixt staff very helpful and courteous making it a pleasant experience compared to other rental companies. However when I returned the car at 5 am it was extremely busy with only one member of staff on duty which resulted in a delay of approx. 45 minutes on a very cold morning. The staff member on duty was very efficient and courteous in trying to get through so many returns. He kept smiling through the wave of unhappy customers. Perhaps his management should look at the number of returns at that time of the morning and roster an appropriate amount of staff. The shuttle bus was equally under pressure with only one bus on duty. But again thank you to the members of staff on duty at that time for being so professional. "

" There was significantly more damage on the car than the inital photos showed . I spent 30 mins highlighting the various material scratches and dents that were on the car. This was very sloppy and could have resulted in me being liable for damage that was already on the car. simply not good enough. Also the car was not clean inside. there was still parking tickets receipts on the windscreen from previous renters and crumbs in between the seats. off the 10 cars that i have rented in the last 12 months, this has been the worst experience.

" I usually have good experiences with AutoEurope. This time, because of the problem mentioned above, I'm less satisfied. But if a good solution can be found, I would be more than happy to recommend AutoEurope. "
" My main problem is that I order a vehicle in the 'compact' class, but I was given a Mini Cooper. I asked the counter staff twice whether this was the correct class and she assured me it was. But later I checked the voucher and saw I should have received a 4-door vehicle with space for 1 large bag and 1 small bag in the trunk, but I was given a 2-door car with very little trunk space. I feel I was not given what the contract said, instead I got a car in a lower class. I believe I should be compensated for this, e.g. by receiving a free upgrade in a future car hire. I look forward to receiving a reply. Thank you. "

" disaster "
" Since January, i had to rent a car, on day 26 i got told to re hire the car the system would not let me. i then called to the office on day 27 as the co driver was only available to re rent the car then, i explained I could not either do a re rental or a new rental and was never told that they were going to charge me three times the rate. had they explained this i could have gone on line again or telephoned to book new booking. so one mont h cost me 134 and 12 days ver 260, to add insult the guy behind the counter took a call and put his feet up and chatted for ten minutes while we were waiting for the manual contract to be finished. not good enough. then when returning the car i asked was it ok to drop it back to wexford to be told yes. no warning it would cost me 70 euro extra i could have left it in kerry and used public transport instead. i parent alone and my boys have autism and i didnt have the finances to be messed about by the service of Europecar, hertz and thrifty. i will email another way too with screen shots of how the system would not let me book a car. regards an unhappy customer Pamela Barrett, David Fitzgibbon "

As of the extreme weather conditions my flight was deverted to Bristol when we stayed over night and next day the flight was deverted to Shannon airport in Clare. I contacted Trifty rent a car from Bristol to let them know about my challenge to goner my booking but it was no response on my email or call back on my call . Next day morning I made a call to Trifty Dublin and I was told to call the Shannon airport office . I spoke with one of the gentleman and I was told to come over to the desk and he will look after me. When I arrived to the Shannon I was offered to pay 380? for car "

I could not take the risk to go there to return the car and Budget closed for return. Even if they were open to receive the car, there was no flights, no taxis, no buses, train, gas station... nothing working because of red alert.

" I paid for the complete insurance package but then I found that I had to pay a ?3,000 security at the hire shop unless I paid ?50 per day for their insurance. This wasn't clearly outlined when I booked. So I ended up paying for insurance twice as I couldn't afford to be without the ?3000 for my weekend away. Thrifty were great to deal with but this left a sour taste and will stop me from using the service again sadly. "

" Strikingly improved staff attitude from past rentals over the last 2 years. Cordial and efficient and helpful. Excellent, "
" Price was fantastic, the only thing i would mention to your customers who arent getting the providers full insurance is to STRESS to them to ask for the Vehicle Inspection Report at the time of picking up the vehicle and to inspect the car thoroughly before leaving as I had to ask for the report as it was not volunteered and had to add things to it that were not noticed in the companies so called pre inspection. But yes i would 100% rent again for your price with your insurance as price is obviously the most important thing "
" Great Car as i paid for the upgrade and nice person to deal with, as mentioned above the only thing i have to mention is i Did not receive the Vehicle inspection report in my email immediately at the time of rental and did not receive it from the desk clerk. When i requested it from their customer service it did take 2 hours and upon receiving it i noticed errors and had to inform them of things that did not appear on the report. The person i dealt with apologized and included it in the report so i was not charged but if i hadn't of noticed or asked for the report I may have been charged. "

" The van I rented had a service light on at rental They looked at it and said no problem.On the 3jan a service message was displayed saying ADBluelow level. We called their emergency road assistance who Told us to stop at a gas station and buy the fluid and We would be reimbursed. We bought the fluid but were not reimbursed. After that fright we had to cut our trip short and return home earlier- we had old people and kids in the van and were now concerned with the van condition. I returned the van on the 4 th instead of the. 5th for the above reasons and asked for a credit they said it?s not with them but that I have to submit a claim to you. This is not fair tome as a client "
" Easy to compare providers & identify cheapest. Great deals on excess refund insurance for as little as ?2.50 per day. Rented a compact for 7 days at a city location with fully refundable excess cover & unlimited kms for only ?50.07 - only ?10 more than the weekly cap (?40) for multi mode public transport in Dublin, but with the added benefit that I can travel at times when public transport systems are closed, I can carry more than I could on public transport, I get closer to places not directly serviced by public transport both in the city & outside the city. I have a clean almost new car every time I rent & don't have to worry about maintenance, upkeep or depreciation associated with outright ownership. Cheaper & more practical than GoCar. "
" Excellent service - innovative smart systems. Great facility for cheaper refuelling if you use more than 3/4 of a tank of fuel. "
" More transparent insurance options . "

" I understand there can be delays in pick up of cars, due to delayed flight.... if there was a way to return the cars at the time, it was picked "
" Good customer service "
" The attendant that served me gave me incorrect information on the return of the car. She did not advise me that the after hours drop-off was at the airport. Had I not checked the night before returning the car I would have missed my flight. "
" Just before to return the car, I rang the branch and was told over the phone by Thrifty that I could extend at the same rate. When returning the car they charged me the extra days at a higher rate. I lodged a complaint to Thrifty and they never came back to me. Very disappointing!! "
" Nice price and nice price of the ensurance. "
" The car was not a very good car. Maintenance must be made. I think because that the price was nice, but with 20 Euros more, I can booking a very good car. "
" A ?2000 was blocked on my credit card and a ?35 full coverage insurance had to be purchased at the counter Even though I already have my own private insurance plus the insurance booked on auto europe?s Website "
" Excellent. Pleasant and efficient. Car as advertised. Would chose Thrifty again. "
" Car heater only worked on highest setting, tail light bulb not working, no screenwash. Lots of marks on the car. They said they had marked them all but so many it was impossible to check. Then on return they said there was a fresh mark on rear door. When I argued they backed off with some reluctance. Their employee was very nice when I returned the car and dealt with a potentially acrimonious situation in a professional manner. "
" Location was awkward Car interior lights didn?t work Warning light came on within an hour of pickup Car fleet photos at location didn?t match ANY on the website "
" Stress free, cheap prices. "
" Fantastic that Iwas able to pick the car up at the airport and not have to take the shuttle bus. Nice friendly efficient staff and great upgrade. 100% satisfied! "
" I have separate insurance to cover excess and some hirers in Shannon have my details in which case they don?t put a stop for a ? amount on my card they take my insurance details and that?s all so they claim direct if a situation arises thankfully that has never happened but it is preferable and I would be inclined to go with them provided their rates are competitive "
" No problem with thrifty person on the desk very capable and helpful no hitches good service "
" The breaks of the car that I used need to be reviewed. I've informed on return. Apart of this car very smoth, economic. Really happy. "
" How about a membership / fidelity program? If not to get more discounts on car hiring, maybe getting points for hotels or air tickets. "
" Sometimes, it doesn't matter the price. I'll always go with Thrifty or Hertz. Didn't have good experience with other companies, but I'm willing to try some I didn't. "
" Ho sempre usato autoeurope per noleggiare auto in tutta Europa.. Ma dopo le due ultime esperienze ne starò alla larga. Ormai il cliente paga sia la prenotazione con autoeurope come broker sia la compagnia di noleggio. Non da alcuna informazione sul fatto che dia solo un intermedio di prenotazione e che una volta arrivati al desk ci siano altri oneri da pagare. Alcuni facoltativi altri obbligatori. Come il fuel charge. "
" Macchina buona, ma il fuel charge è obbligatorio anche se prenoti un pieno-pieno, quindi cosa assurda "
" Excellent customer service when collecting and returning the car. "
" Excellent service and easy to navigate. "
" Great staff team at Cork Airport Budget office. "
" Car provided was not as quoted. "
" Car provided on arrival was not as quoted, changed over on the second day "
" Easy and fast- "
" Good service but not very fast. Economic and comfortable car but on the first date there was a failure of the auto stop/start system "
" Smooth and cheap! "
" Everything was good and smooth until returning the car, and they did its a small chip in the window that you can barely see, they are trying to charge me 600 Euro for this ! Which is not right! I have been working in a car rental myself and if the chip is not bigger than a 2 Euro coin you should not charge the customer! I think they have been doing wrong and I don't agree with this at all even tho they mad me sign papers without any explanation! A chip in the window should cost 10 Euro to fix not 600 Euro as they are saying! I can take the car and go and fix this myself for a tenner! I'm truly disappointed and it ruined the the last part of the holiday totally! Rebecca "
" There was no lineup at the desk in the terminal at 7:30pm on a Monday. I was offered an upgrade from the compact I reserved to a diesel midsize for 5 eur per day which I declined. I was offered to lower the deductible, which I also declined as my credit card covers it. I was charged a fuel deposit of about 90 eur which I got back when I returned the car full. The 1500 eur deposit was authorized on my card, not actually charged, so no currency conversion issues. The shuttle took us to the car's location in about 10 minutes, car had a bit more damage than listed, so we pointed it out and took photos. No issues upon return of the car as there was no new damage and we returned it full. Got the fuel deposit back right away. Good experience! "
" Collecting the car and dropping the car experience was perfectly fine apart from the staffs attitude. The attitude of one staff member was appalling, in dealing with the other staff. They dealt with the customers with respect, but there is nothing worse than seeing a staff member talk down to another staff member. "
" Prompt and efficient service "
" Excellent and friendly customer service.. Very helpful staff. "
" Car was dirty externally and had undisclosed dents, however no issues reporting/documenting same and offers of spot cleaning car "
" The only down side was trying to amend the pickup date and times, apart from that all good "
" Amazing staff at the airport. "
" Staff made life so easy. "
" Everything was okay However I booked a 4 doors vichale and was given two doors . I ask the gentleman behind the counter ''is this four doors ? And the answer was yes .. but when i was shown the car it was two doors .. unhappy I took the car hoping it will be okay but me and my family were uncomfortable getting in and out of this car . I couldn't wait to return the car.. "
" Service was excellent when collecting and returning the vehicle "
" Car not as clean as it should have been, muck on bumpers "
" They rent out old cars "
" I feel that the insurance was not explained adequately online so when booking I wAsn?t comparing like with like, I didn?t plan for extra 60 euro on picking up the car "
" As above "
" Found the booking experience easy to use. Would have been helpful to know about the 24 hour thing when booking the vehicle. There is another site that flags a potential saving if you can adjust times within a 24 hour slot. "
" These guys were excellent. I almost did not book with them because they were a little out of town but figured I could get the bus. No need - they came and collected us at the hotel, gave very clear tour of car and how they assess damage and also dropped us back into Galway when we returned the car. Very good. "
" Great, as usual. "
" I'm fed-up with the hard sell up-selling of insurance. Waiting in line for my car all I can hear is terror tactics being used to coerce customers to buy more insurance. I hate having to hear this and more importantly wait longer for this. SIXT are particularly excessive. This time I decided to experiment - I chose to take ALL insurances offered via autoeurope (Basic Rental with Insurances, CDW, THP, ZQ ). It seemed that SIXT knew nothing about this - they didn't even know what the acronyms meant - and they continued to try to sell me more and more insurance. Then they blocked ?1500 from my credit card for possible damages! So what was the point of pre-buying all this insurance if they still went through the same scare tactic hard sell? "
" It was not clear to me that Budget would hold ?1500 as a guarantee that I would pay for any incidental damage since the insurance I bought through you was from a third party. I was surprised at that and thought you could provide an explanation on your site so I'd be prepared for that before hearing it from the guy at the counter. They tried to sell me more insurance, but I chose to decline it, since I had got the insurance already from you. You could advise clients on the options there. "
" It was very busy and they did ok. They could have made mention of the toll road and how to pay it. (Paying the toll requires an app be downloaded for the phone) "
" Car interior windows were grimey and dirty - difficult to see out of when light was flowing through. Additionally, the front tires were of an unknown brand - cheap tires which were of poor quality in terms of noise and grip. "
" Waiting time to pick up car is very long "
" Cheap and clear. "
" Quick and easy. No problems at all. "
" It's not Auto Europe's fault, but I had a bad experience with Avis. I have been renting cars in Ireland several times a year for 35 years. Many of those rentals were through Auto Europe, but I always opted for Hertz, where I have a Gold Plus membership. I am now 82. Years ago, I was told that any driver over 70 must have a doctor's and insurance company's recommendation before renting a car. I duly procured such documents, but was never asked for them. When I heard the limit was raised to 75, I procured another set of documents. Never asked for them. I finally tossed the yellowed and tattered documents out. Avis, of course, insisted on them and refused to rent me a car without them. I walked next door to Hertz and rented a car in 5 minutes "
" I assume Hertz has all the information about my past rentals and Avis does not, but I was offended by their snippy comments and ended up paying for a second rental from Hertz. "
" Staff had serious attitude problems. "
" Staff had serious attitude problems. "
" Due to a "system fault" my booking was duplicated and I was charged twice. After several emails money was eventually credited back to my account. "
" Car was old and had numerous scratches and dents. Left front wing was badly damaged. Although this was marked on the report, I was questioned about it when I returned the car. Also one tyre had a torn and scraped side wall which was dangerous. Car was also dirty "
" Service was great, booking very easy "
" Service was great, pick up and return very easy "
" When picking the car up I was told the gas tank was full, I drove 39km and the gas light came on so had to fill the tank right away. I then went to the Sixt in Belfast and the manager said their systems weren't attached to the one in Dublin so couldn't do anything but would send an email with all of the info attached and said when I return the car I should get a refund for the gas. Upon returning in Dublin I was told there was nothing they could do and would have to email customer service, even though I already had a week prior and hadn't gotten a response. Very disappointed with Sixt in Dublin and how they handled this, they didn't apologize for anything and brushed it off, saying there was nothing they could do to help. "
" There were hidden costs "
" The agent was not very helpful and after more than half an hour we ended up paying an extra 315 euro before we could take the car with us "
" I tried to use the price guarantee offered on your website as the.price for the same car with thrifty was cheaper. I was informed that I could use it but it was possible that my booking would be cancelled and I could lose the booking. It's a pretty pathetic guarantee and as a regular customer , I feel very let down and misled by the "guarentee". "
" I was not allowed to cancel my rental one day before of the rental start date and due to that I paid for the full period without even using the car. My understanding was that in such situtions there would be a fee for cancelling it but not refusing to cancel it and charging the full price. Next time I would prefer renting direct from the rental company as the offer better conditions for such unexpected situations. "
" We were led to believe our child car seat had been paid for already and then received a surprise fee when picking up the car. "
" Good on line presence "
" Service : ok Vehicle : below expected standard Cost: unexpected additionally high costs for insurance "
" No problems with arrangements. "
" The people on Dublin office were extremely kind and helpful. The car was good, and economical, and we had no problems with it. Very impressed with the staff there. "
" Highly Satisfied!! "
" The Car was very good However the representative at the centre was not quit pleasant this time in comparison to other guys I met before at thrifty. "
" I'm willing to update my satisfaction level based on your response of my review of SIXT. "
" To put it simply: SIXT are con artists. I hired my rental car with AutoEurope because of the positive feedback I had read about the company, unknowingly having my services provided through SIXT. I won't hold this against AE but thought you should know about SIXT. Doing a quick Google search on the company I found page after page of poor reviews. Sure enough, all the claims made came true. Slow pickup from airport, lengthy rental process, they provided a "BMW, free of charge" only to ask I pay +50 euro for the car... I again showed my paperwork saying I already paid in full to which the salesman said it was my fault he had to redo the rental agreement, although he said "no charge." Con artists. Don't let this company tarnish your name. "
" Very plesed with all aspects of the rental from booking to service at Knock Airport from Budget "
" Helpful and efficient staff both at desk and staff member on pick up. "
" There was damage on the car on pick up that was not logged on the damage report sheet. This is a common occurrence at most car rental companies in Dublin Airport. It is hugely stressful for the customer to find undocumented damage on cars because of sloppy and archaic pre rental inspection practices. "
" Fantastic staff, lovely vehicle, a pleasure to deal with from start to finish! "
" Very quick service "
" Excellent. This is the second time my family have used your service within a year first time getting a hertz diesel. Thanks "
" Thrifty is the most professional and honest car hire company for me and I have used all of them at some point. "
" Very helpful especially Brian took timeout to show me how to use a newer model "
" Don't sell a online insurance and then not accept it... "
" Good prices, and easy to find car "
" The place was good, car was in excelent state, the only thing is that the CDW insurance you need to leave is super huge. "
" Great rates "
" Friendly staff "
" Staff were very helpful and friendly but car did not live up to expectations. Manual winding of windows, air& heating only worked at top level which was very noisy. Inspection displays came on dashboard as well as tyre alert. I did check but nothing wrong with the tyre pressure. Whilst I understand that this is a small car I expected that basic did not mean absolutely no frills "
" Facilitated change at short notice "
" Perfect can in new condition "
" It took a full hour in a queue to get to the counter to collect the car. Terrible "
" It's very handy they have an office in Cork city centre unlike many other car rental companies, but it's often very inconvenient that you cannot drop off a car on Sundays, as they are closed, and therefore have to pay for an extra day if you're going away for the weekend. "
" I will never ever book through you again...You took my money, yet I was refused the car at the desk.My trip to Dublin had to be cancelled because of it and you would not return my money.Big mistake!!! I work through several different companies.We will never advise anyone book through Auto Europe again. "
" As explained above.. "
" Very dissatisfied about whole experience- thrifty was suggested as cheapest car hire experience but we ended up paying in excess of 200 euro extra to hire the car when we collected it. My husband was given car as a gift from my mum who made the booking via her debit card - on arrival he provided a debit card for insurance for the car as opposed to a credit card and was advised of the charge of in excess of 2k that would be taken from his account and re credited if there was no issues. He noted that he did not have these funds spare in an account and offered debit card of my mother who purchased the gift on her debit card - neither option was acceptable. After much discussion he then had an additional 45 minute wait to receive the car "
" Will never use thrifty again - and will also comment on forums about the experience so that others do not go through this - it was shocking - I felt it was a money making scam - my mother who actually made booking and payment was willing to give debit or credit card - it should not matter where payment is coming from especially in the debit card case - the man we dealt with was very black and white about options -either my husband gives a credit card in his name only or a debit card payment in his name only or we must buy extra insurance at approximately 30 Euro a day which we ended up doing and then to have a 45 minute wait for the car as they are "very busy" - ridiculous "
" The online booking process was very efficient and there were no problems with the rental on the ground in Ireland. "
" The pick-up and drop-off were very efficient, but I question whether the car should still be in Thrifty's fleet. It seemed to run OK but the body was in very bad condition - the worst of any car I have ever rented. When the body is so beat up, it makes one wonder how well the car has been maintained. If I'm paying full price, the car should be in better shape. "
" The car that they gave me had lots of little bits of damage, but more importantly the tires were a problem. When I was forced to check, all tires were different pressures and then one tire refused to hold the proper pressure. In the end I had to call Thrifty - they started talking about whether I had extra tire insurance! A tire repair shop told me that the tire was damaged by some impact (which didn't happen with me) and that it needed to be replaced. That was done at my expense and time. Thrifty have instructed me to contact their support - I'm expecting the run-around... "
" On the ground staff in Kerry Airport were excellent "
" The Auto Europe service was at its usual very good standard and price for inclusive insurance was competitive "
" 1. Car was good 2. Budget staff were very pleasant and helpful to deal with. 3. The queuing time when collecting the car was too long, approx 45 mins. "
" All was fine with Auto Europe. "
" I was disappointed to be given a car which had a service planned 1500 km later. When you are renting a car and driving with children you don't feel safe in a car you don't know. In the two weeks I rented the car, i went over the 1500km, and the car kept warning us that a service was required. An unpleasant and disappointing experience - I won't be recommending SIXT to anyone. "
" very easy, friendly, perfect. no hassles. "
" Very busy when I picked up the car. Car wasn't ready & it took almost an hour as a half to get my car. "
" The Vehicle I booked was a Land Rover Freelander or similiar which was the Nissan X Trail. We were given a Kia Sportage on pickup which was not what I had booked or expected, however the only other option was a smaller SUV. So that was disappointing as I could have booked a Sportage cheaper, I paid extra for the Freelander and didn't get it so felt that this was poor. I think this was Budget's fault rather than Auto Europe but could not resolve it with the staff on hand. "

I think this was Budget's fault rather than Auto Europe but could not resolve it with the staff on hand. "
" After my pre-paid credit card was declined by the rental agency, Auto Europe refused to refund my rental cost even though their information did not indicate that this card would be invalid. I went straight to Budget and rented a car at a higher cost due to late notice but had no problems. When I contacted them to organise a refund their communication was rude and unhelpful. I am now being forced to take legal action to recover my money. The singular worst car rental experience I have ever had. "
" I was very dissatisfied. The confirmation email instructed me to go to the Sixt desk in terminal 1. I had to wait for a very long time only to be told there was no need to go to this desk - that I could go straight to the collection desk. I was also told to contact AutoEurope to modify my reservation - AutoEurope then told me I could not modify - which turned out to be incorrect. Further, the auto europe Ireland number was not contactable from a UK phone. "
" As outlined above, there was an inordinate wait for the Sixt desk in Terminal 1 due to a shortage of staff. It then turned out I did not have to queue here at all. I was told I could not modify my booking - this advice turned out to be incorrect. The service provided at the Sixt collection desk was much better. "
" No response to my complaint. "
" Gave me smaller car than booked and paid for; front type was bald with consequence of dangerous driving on rainy Irish roads "
" Excellent, would need more discounts on car hires for loyal customers "
" good "
" Good "
" Good "
" Very professional and well informed regarding the rental "
" The staff at sixt where very professional and very helpful "
" Easy, straight forward, choice of companies. "
" Although it said on the booking that Sixt was in the airport, as soon as they heard I had booked through Auto Europe website I was sent by shuttle 15 minutes away to join a ling queue. I was in the queue from 7.15pm-8.45pm. The actual interaction at the counter took 10 minutes and it was 9pm when I sat in to the car. The girl at the desk was lovely but there were I my 2 people on duty for a huge number of people. It was a disgrace. I will not be bookung with Sixt again. "
" Sometimes, bus collections are a bit slow "
" Price extremely competituve "
" Excellent service. Staff friendly yet professional. "
" The wait for the car pick up was long as the car wasn't cleaned yet. The shuttle service was excellent however. I had the feeling that the team was understaffed, so I suggest hiring one or two more people for the team in Cork "
" At the time of booking I paid more than double the price of the car hire to include insurance within the package. However at the time of collection my card was charged around ?300 extra because the according to the car company the insurance provided by Auto Europe was invalid! At the time of the return of the car I got ?90 back as the fuel tank was full but that still meant I was over ?200 overcharged. I did complain on the night of collection and received an automated reply that I would get a reply within days. I am still waiting for the reply. "
" All was fine regarding Budget apart from the insurance issue raised above which was totally unacceptable. "
" They did a good job replacing the faulty car we were given at Dublin "
" When offered 2 saloons, I requested a hatchback and was given an SUV to suit my needs at no extra cost "
" Tyre pressure was too low and the day light bulb was broken. Other than that was all good. "
" I never actually used the car in the end, although it was too late to obtain a refund. You should know that the freefone number you give for Ireland does not work - I had to call Germany to cancel. That's not very satisfactory. "
" At least they were available to speak to, but they couldn't handle the cancellation, that's why I had to call Germany. "
" process is easy to navigate "
" I doubt very much I will hear anything about my dissatisfaction with your company and the amount of money it cost me to hire a car from you, see below "
" We hired a car and paid insurance online or so we thought, we arrived were told all they had was a Dacia duster, I explained that my 73 year old 4 foot nothing mother would not be able to get in and out of that car, we were told she would as it was high enough for her to just slide into the seat, she couldn't and we had to use steps every time she needed to get in and out, on top of that I was told I would have to pay more money as I didn't have enough Insurance so the price almost doubled from what we originally paid. to say we felt disgusted would be an understatement. we felt as we were under pressure to take the only car available to us and pay the excess as time was not on our side to argue. we would not recommend you to anyone. "
" Realky happy with Auto Europe "
" Really helpful -already had my details from a prrvious booking do it was all very quick. "
" Long queue and very slow to get the paperwork done. When finally done the car wasn't ready. They said 10 mins but was waiting for almost 30mins. "
" I requested a car with AC and was told upon arrival that the car did not have AC but did have a "cold air" option. Not the same thing, Auto Europe. It was frustrating having paid for the vehicle already and feeling like I didn't receive what I paid for. "
" The service at enterprise was fine. Upon arrival we were told the car requested/paid for wasn't available. They didn't have any other options in the right class to give nor did they offer to upgrade me. Although I'm not sure they had any upgrades available. They didn't seem to have any cars and myself and others were stuck waiting for longer than our appointment times to receive a car lesser than we requested. The added on costs were lessened by the manager and I was happy with the alternative and deductions but would have preferred an upgrade with no additional costs. The smaller car did make for a more uncomfortable 10 day road trip. The enterprise professionals were very good though. "
" A more concise explanation of insurance coverage options would be helpful for first time customers. "
" Car broke down halfway through are vacation cause us huge inconvenience as we had our infant with us. The representative on the phone was very poor and hung up the call. Conflicting information in relation to the excess cover between Auto Europe and Sixt the terms said one thing sixt disagreed with what was written by Auto Express, the additional excess cover cost as much as the car rental. Very disappointed with the service will not use either party again or recommend to anyone. "
" Waited 45 minutes for shuttle to car park on arrival "
" Great price and easy to use website "
" Very easy to deal with and good car's and choice "
" I am not impressed with the fact that your company would not return the cost of the 1 day rental. This only amounted to the sum of $32.14. I am waiting until you make this correction before I comment here and on Trip Advisor. You might have a policy and put this in your fine print but you are not helping yourself as a company! Please do the right thing and refund the amount for 1 day early. We had extenuating circumstances that made it necessary to return the car. Sometimes things happen that are unforseen. It is of little or no cost to transfer these funds back to my MasterCard. It Will benefit you in the end! Sincerely, Emil D. Kohuch "
" Auto Europe very good to deal with but when you get to the car hire counter they will try very hard to sell extra insurance "
" I had to return first car it kept driving into the left and it was extremely dirty with back seat not fitting into its brackets but there was no problem with a replacement car. "
" Very satisfied ,great value "
" Very helpful with the process. "
" Great deal. Virtually 50 percent cheaper than hiring Via airline. Highly recommended "
" Very straightforward and pleasant transaction nice clean car would recommend. Many thanks "
" Auto Europe is the one company I use regularly, have used other companies, but there site says exactly whats in tin. "
" I always use sixt for my work hire, 3 days a month In Ireland. Staff helpful and good range of cars to choose from, good pick up and returns. "
" The actual cost of the rental almost doubled compared to the initial cost on the web site!! "
" We purchased the full package from you and they tried to sell us more insurance "
" The entire staff was very friendly and courteous! Thank you! "
" More than satisfied "
" Very Good Service "
" The existing damage should be provided to the hirer on a printed hard copy as well, so as to allow the client to check the car when they first access the car "
" I want to commend the initiative that your Dublin employees demonstrated. I had requested a small van because I wanted to make sure that I would have enough trunk space for the two large suit cases and three carryons that we would be traveling with. I wanted to be sure that all luggage would be hidden from view as stopped off at various sites. They saw that my request was for only two people. Anticipating my needs, they made sure to have on hand a car (Skoda SuperB) with a huge trunk. That was exactly what I wanted. It was a beautiful ride. "
" Very satisfied with Auto Europe. No problems at all! "
" No problems at all with Thrifty. The vehicle inspection process is a bit meticulous compared to what we are used to in the United States, but it's the way they do it there and we did not incur any damage so had no problems. Friendly customer service. Easy to rent from Thrifty with the Auto Europe voucher. All good. "
" Both getting the car and handing it back were awful experiences - both took well over an hour. In particular, when one has a flight to catch, being kept waiting for the bus to the terminal for over half-an-hour is a nonsense. I'll certainly avoid both Hertz and Thrifty in the future, and advise others to do the same. "
" Excellent service "
" Straight forward booking system and I particularly like the your alternative excess insurance option. "
" Excellent staff and friendly service, hassle free experience. "
" Shuttle bus should go to both terminals - long wait for shuttle that was going to terminal one "
" excellent prompt friendly service "
" The car was battered and looked vey wornout inside and outside. The seats were washed but wore bleached stains. The car was very basic with no aircon which made it sickening for anybody to sit at the back. Essentially it should not be rented out any more due to obsolescence and wear and tear. "
" Car was good, queue to collect a bit long but fine. Return car smooth but NO RECEIPT by Sixt was given as a confirmation of return car in good condition. After 48h of return large sum on credit card still blocked. Annoying "
" Really great service and a very kind upgrade from Enterprise . Certainly would recommend them as a car hire company. "
" I was dissatisfied about YOUR directions. I queued up for about 10 minutes at the SIXT counter as suggested. They then sent me on to the SIXT car lot. There I had to actually wait for another 40 (!) minutes. They were very much understaffed. After I complained they upgraded me to a very nice BMW 420. Nevertheless, considering that I only needed the car for a few hours, the wait was far too long. They explained to me, that if I had rented the car straight from SIXT, I would have had preferential treatment at the terminal. Under those circumstances, I would not go through renting through you again. "
" SIXT tried to do the best to accommodate me, but they were hopelessly understaffed. "
" Car was delivered without fuel. If I didn't notice before leaving, I would have been harmed with the situation. "
" Autoeurope or Thrifty did not send an email with the final bill details. There were 2 additional charges, and I don't know what it exactly was for. In total 3 amounta were charged: 1 for the rental, 1 for the gasoline and 1 for something unknown. The service was fine, it could've been excellent if not only a specification email with the costs was sent upfront, but also for the additional costs later. "
" Good. Only missing the details of the 2 extra costs that were charged at the end. "
" I didn't know about extra insurance taxes "
" I didn't know about extra insurance taxes Receptionist very unpolite "
" Really clear communication. very happy. I have already recommended you to several people. "
" Service was very speedy, friendly and helpful at pick up and drop off. "
" Very thorough, pleasant and efficient agent, on my arrival quite late at night. "
" pretty good !! "
" I did request a FREE upgrade to a Diesel Car or even the next level but Neither was offered ! Perhaps you could SOFTEN your Policy with regard to same , as I have been given FREE UPGRADES with other companies without even asking ! Just a Note to keep your customers VERY Happy Not Just Satisfied ! Rgds., John Darby "
" I rent frequently and have always shopped around between the various websites to get the cheapest deal - now I let Auto Europe do it for me, as the deals there cant be beaten "
" Very efficient "
" The car and returns process were perfect, only issue I had was with the lady who processed my booking at the budget desk when I arrived. She was downright rude and not in anyway pleasant. A smile, manners or even a hello instead of a barked order of license and credit card is not you much to ask from an employee who's role involves dealing with customers. "
" Perfect "
" Simple no problems great "
" I travelled all the way to b told I could not hire the car as I didn't have my credit card on my person even though I had the credit card number I was not allowed avail of the service when I called auto I was told that they would not be giving me my money back even though the car never left the fourcourt I am highly disappointed with your service "
" I could suggest you guy's set up a loyalty programme for your regular clients, I'd be inclined to come to you more often, as it is I use you about 50% of the time when on business and leisure travel, particularly when visiting Ireland. This year alone its been 4 times with another two trips schedule to visit Europe in August and November. "
" David at reception in the arrival terminal was great, we arrived late and he was very accomodating! "
" Please check with car hire companies as they seems to be not user friendly as they should be. "
" I had to mention the scratches on the car wheels and they were big. If i would have not noticed then that would have been come to me. not a great user friendly experience with the team thrifty though. "
" Very affordable and treated well by your customer service people. "
" No pressure to buy their own insurance coverage. "
" There is a need to putt conspicuous sign posts from the point where you pick up customers to the point of your office, for unfamiliar persons to drop back vehicles without problem. I had to ask and follow a Hartz van to drop the vehicle. "
" Very big queue when pi King g up car, otherwise very satisfied "
" Opel Vivaro brand new 9 seat van, slow on takeoff, worked well. Design fault: drivers door handle came away in my hand when opening the door five of our six days were inconvienced by the fact passengers had to reach over and open the door. When I was going to the van for any reason I had to gain access through the passenger door, not exactly what I'd paid for!! "
" The staff were very nice and helpful. I would use your company again the next time I go to Ireland. "
" No Comments "
" Clear process "
" Staff at the counter were very rude and aggressive... very pushy with their insurances and other options... not a nice experience. "
" Frindly staff clean car "
" Doing a great job "
" I was not clearly informed that I needed to have ?2000 put on hold on my card when picking up car, I ended up paying an additional ?130 "
" Make it REAL CLEAR that you have to have ?2000 available on a card that will be unavailable to you until return of the car "
" U was not able able to modify my reservation online. Your helpline number were not available. I had to sent an email to get a call back. I explaining in greater details my dissatisfaction both in those emails and to your agent, when I was eventually called back. "
" Excellent service as usual. Staff friendly and professional. "
" The car had tires light on, signifying a problem. I had to return the car early to the airport and argue not to be extra charged for leaving it in another location. "
" I had to return car at 22:00 to the same place where I took it. There was no one there to guide me where to leave it and to take keys. Finally some security guard said I need to go to Terminal itself, to park it there and bring keys upsairs. Trying to find what exact parking I should go, I parks at regular parking. When I got to agents to bring keys, there was no one from Thristy. The guy from Herz tried to send me back to long term parking. After 40 minutes of trying to return the car and driving at night in airport labyrinths I was already almost crying in hysteria. Finally guy from Herz took keys and said that it's fine and I can go. I was worrying all the night about the car and if they will find it and if its ok I left keys to Herz "
" Very good service, useful webpage and great price. The only information missing that should be highlighted is the car rental company will hold a 1600euros deposit in case of any damage even if you booked a full insurance with auto Europe. "
" Car clean in perfect condition and easy to book and return. "
" Professional and simple to follow. "
" Top Class service. "
" Hello - when I picked up the car the fuel tank was half empty. I only noticed this 30 minutes after I left the airport. Also the Odemeter reading on the contract agreement and the actual reading on the car was off by nearly 900km - I have photographic evidence of all this. I tried to contact Sixt for advise but got no response. Hence the car was returned by me the next morning with a full tank of diesel as I did not have time to argue. I feel this was very unfair. "
" Nothing much, we followed the instructions and got a car for a decent price. Only not the one we booked. "
" We booked a volkswagen golf and got a dacia with us. Our car wasnt available anymore unless we payed 15 extra for each day to drive in an automatic volkswagen golf. Unacceptable but we didnt want to pay extra so no choice left. I hope that next time this wont happen again. "
" a good service provided with no fuss "
" All worked smoothly - a little concerned with the Eur5 charge for use of credit card for any local charges. Apparently this was not applied but did appear on the initial Thrifty paperwork as a charge (along with the insurance deposit). You might make it clearer that this Eur5 charge only applies if the credit charge is charged (as opposed to money held) "
" didnt like the Dacia logan we were given - it was spacious but not a great car. Would prefer the Astra advertised "
" I rented a car in Dublin last weekend therefore I couldn't pay it using my Debit Card. It was very unpleasant and disappointing for me once I have rented cars before with Auto Europe without any problem in another occasions. I lost ?80 plus my time, hotel, plans and a lot more. I wouldn't rent a car again for Sixt in the future. I have nothing against Auto Europe as the man who I spoke with on the phone was very attencious and helpful. Thanks a million Auto Europe. Manoel "
" Need to improve a lot. How wouldn't Sixt allow a customer to rent a car with a Debit Card once the customer offered up to ?5000 as deposit?? Doens't make any sence to let people down like that. "
" Very poor quality car "
" very smooth with no hassles whatsoever collecting or dropping off the car and the car was perfectly presented and very economical for its size. I would recommend they again and will definitely use they myself again. "
" Toyota Auris or similar LOL The only choice I had was between a Seat (which I hate) Toledo and a 2 year old Opel Astra with a big dent in the back door with NO bluetooth "
" The guys in Thrifty, South Lotts Road are gents and always helpful. Nothing is ever a problem, and they look after their customers. "
" excellent, as usual. "
" excellent "
" It would have been helpful if someone had provided a map of where to find our car. The carpark wasn't well signposted and we had to go back to the Sixt car rental counter twice to ask exactly where it was. In the end it was by sheer good luck that we found it. The car - a Toyota Yaris - was reasonably clean, although we found bits of paper in the glove compartment that hadn't been cleared out from the last hirer. I particularly liked the rear-view camera. "
" See comments above "
" Last experience was not good. But I believe it was because of the provider. When I choose Budget it didn't go well. But now with Thrifty was excellent. Next time, even Thrifty (or Hertz) being a little bit more expensive, I'll go for them. "
" Nothing to say badly. Everything went really good. As I mentioned, next time, even if price is a bit higher, I'll go for Thrifty for sure. "
" It is important to understand complicated situation with insurance when one goes to desk. Fortunately agent was thorough in explanation. "
" Relatively straightforward process "
" Poor communication from desk staff and confusing charges on their paperwork . Group of car did not match what I booked, and car details on paperwork did not match car provided. I would not use thrifty again. "
" The booking was real easy and quick. "
" I booked the car and asked my boyfriend to collect the keys while I was getting coffee. I prepaid the car AND the insurance. When I got back with coffee I see that he paid for an other insurance. The reply I get from the Sixt employee : ' Well.. you didn't have to buy it... But it's too late now'.. What type of service is that?! "
" Very good "
" Excellent "
" There was a disputed over insurance. I thought I had booked and paid for additional cover, budget said I had just paid for basic cover "
" Excellent & great value for money "
" Everything went as advised on booking . John was very friendly professional & very informative . Gave me confidence & reassurance on how to contact if any problems ,inc, exposing the mechanics of the car , I will definitely use them again & tell my friends about the positive experience & cost effective rental from your company "
" Easy to use and great rates. "
" Average cars, not the best insurance cover rates. Poor service "
" I liked when I could sign in on the website and access my bookings, this feature no longer exists, can it be reinstated ? I live in Ireland "
" Excellent service, good quality vehicle - I rate Thrifty Dublin 10 of 10 and will hire there again. "
" Very good price for weekend rental. "
" Excellent prices. Nobody believe it! "
" Staff is very friendly yet professional, service is fast and efficient. "
" Excellent, as usual. "
" Budget were excellent too but I do not like the fact that even though their Fuel Policy states "Hire full and return full" they take a charge of ?90 for fuel, which they then refund when the car is returned, unnecessary. "
" easy to use and com;putative prices "
" Brilliant service - the agent at the (Jamie) is great, fantastic customer service, friendly and professional. "
" There appeared to be a mix up as Sixt did not get a valid code from Auto Europe this meant that my booking did not show on Sixt system and it took about an hour to sort out the problem "
" See above "
" Auto Europe should let me know that paying the maximum excess insurance is not accepted by Avis and they demanded an extra down-payment of ?2200. "
" The Avis agent was quite ignorant, unhelpful and dismissive of me and could do with a.training course on customer relatiions. Eventhough I had paid auto Europe for the maximum excess insurance, Avis would not accept it and pushed me into buying another excess insurance if I wanted to be fully covered. As I would not buy it, he took a down payment of ?2,200 on my credit card. "
" I have used this service many times and never disappointed "
" Customer service was excellent, check in process was quick and efficient, car was in very good condition. The only negative is the car rental location is a short drive away from the airport but all rental companies at Dublin Airport are the same. "
" Very low mileage brand new car, lovely experience. The staff was also very good, especially the supervisor Paula was great. "
" Would prefer Budge to be more flexible in their options... "
" No problems whatsoever, Auto Europe excellent. "
" No problems whatsoever, Sixt excellent. "
" The agent at desk Derek was very friendly and helpful. However I have a suggestion 1. A charge of 1691 euro was blocked on my VISA Debit Card when the website specifies 1600 incl VAT is the amount to cover Excess Liability. I should have been advised of this at the time. "
" Price are extremely competitive "
" The staff is friendly yet professional, and very helpful. It would help if the branch was open a bit later in the afternoon, at least untill 6pm. "
" Fantastic value rental. Free newspaper. Free M50 today tolls "
" Staff at the Thrifty Office on the North Circular Road were extremely helpful, pleasant and professional. I would definitely rent from there again. "
" Very happy with service, staff were very friendly and accommodating. Car provided was perfect! "
" Excellent friendly service, very efficient! "
" Service was good however i was provided with an inferior class car. "
" Couldn't rent car at pick because they wanted a 2200 euro deposit from my credit card. "
" 2200 block on credit card is nuts. "
" Very professional and helpful staff. "
" Sixt was the best experience. The car is very good, new, smells good. It is away better them Europcar where the cars provided is always very old, noisy, with samithing always to be fixed. "
" but you should have my bookings site to keep track of bookings "
" very good experience, good cars but Skoda Fabia should not be considered mid sized car "
" I have rented cars in many countries and from many different providers and this was the worse service experience I have ever encountered. It started at the desk in terminal 2, having queued for about 6 mins the service lady informed me she was going on her break and I needed to go to the car holding area. She had called for the shuttle but clearly failed to tell the driver there were 3 customers needing the shuttle. I followed the first person within about 3 mins only to see the shuttle having pulled away and now I had to wait 15 mins in the cold for it to return. When we got to the car holding area there were 2 staff but only one could handle the registration process. It took approx 44 mins from first engagement to get the car "
" Get more pleasant staff "
" We did not get out car and did not get our refund. staff member very rude and not very helpful. Went to another car-hire desk and got a car immediately. Thank you Enterprise! "
" Very friendly and efficient staff "
" When I made my booking with autoeurope I selected the third smallest size car (compact class, Renault Clio or similar). However, when I collected the car from Thrifty I was offered their smallest car (economy class, Nissan Micra or similar). "
" My wife and I have hired cars with you on several occasions over the years, each time we book the suggested car and receive something different, we have one final booking this year in April with you and if we don't receive the car we booked (VW Golf) then we will not use your services again and would be inclined to warn people about the inconsistency we have received from your company. "

" Car was absolute basic uncomfortable noisy seats dirty "
" EASY TO BOOK "
" EASY PAPER WORK. I HAD A EMERGENCY AND I NEEDED TO LEAVE MY OWN CAR SEATS IN THE OFFICES FOR A DAY, NO PROBLEMS AT ALL FOR THIS. "
" Very,very excellent service. "
" A professional service;how customers should be treated. "
" The best car rental service available. Always excellent deals and Customer Service is second to none. Will only use Auto Europe for caar rental. Never had any issues over several rentals. "
" Customer Service was swift and polite. Car was what I wanted. No waiting around. Pleasant Experience. "
" Easy and quick process. Best rates I could found "
" Good car but bad service. Charged more than expected for Insurance waiver and didn't provide any explanations about what was beeing charged. They charge a credit card fee, but because credit card is the only possible payment method, this fee is ridiculous and not optional. It´s a fix and mandatory cost. Unfriendly service. Not recommended "
" Good Service, I would like to have personalised offers based on my rental history as i intend to rent almost every week. "
" Good Service, I would like to have personalised offers based on my rental history as i intend to rent almost every week. "
" Very cold waiting in the bus shelter for bus to the airport. Why not wait in the office? Staff very friendly and efficient. "
" Excellent value "
" Very helpful and efficient "
" The right door of the car had a technical issue, the branch agent was reluctant to fix it in the first place and when insisting he did fix the door finally. Then when starting driving the car i noticed there was a noise coming from the front left wheel, but i didn't want to talk to the agent again as he was really annoyed with the first issue. I did then drive 10 days with this noise issue... To sum up the cars are not well maintained or they don't check them at all. Not satisfied. "
" Thrifty/Hertz implied insurance was a risk to me yet I had taken extra insurance, my opinion trying to get me to take more insurance through them, this is not the first time I have experienced that using Autoeurope and collecting from agents at pick up points. I dropped off out of hours on Feb 10th and have not received any formal notification that they found car and everything was ok which is dissappointing thisclose out could also come from Auto europe "

" No comment easy to use. "
" The office filled out a form stating car in perfect condition. However the day after i noticed scotch on the taillight and traces of former panel beating done.I was worried the whole week about the return .IT should have been mentioned on the car rental form. Theyalso asked for 1800? deposit and only for i had your reservation i insisted it was only 500?. Spoiled my xmas. Couldn t understand why 6days and 7day rental is the same price. "
" We arrived very tired from 19 hours in transit. My wife was asked for her licence and after signing agreement found that we had been charged 50 euros for her as additional driver. We were also 'conned' into paying 50 euros for fuel top up and an upgrade of vehicle. Result was a huge increase in the price. NOT HAPPY. Will not use company agai "
" Good prices and easy booking "
" My bill went from 26,90 from auto europe to plus 75,90 thrifty "
" Happy with the service "
" Happy "
" Excellent rate and customer service "
" My voucher was for a total amount of ? 70 and when I came to the car rental had to pay an additional insurance in the amount of ? 25 per day. to increase the amount of ? 155 so that the final figure was ? 225. Although I already had supercower insurance paid upon booking of. "
" after I had to take out insurance against co-participation of 25 ? on the day of the worker he is assured with this insurance can not check the status of car and not damaged. Upon delivery of the car but the control of personnel and he did say that on the fender damaged. state control under photo on the tablet and wanted to tell him autographed damage. I refused it and when will check the status of a car according to the records in the office so he apologized to the team that it was wrong to see. "
" We were told that the first driver needed to have a credit card in their name; this was apparently not necessary when we collected the car. So we essentially wasted 60+ euro putting the car in the name of the person with the credit card and then having to have the person who would actually drive the car as second driver (and having to pay for this). Such a waste of money. "
" The people on the ground in Knock were excellent, can't fault them. The issues we had we with the Auto Europe information. "
" Very Happy "
" Customer Service excellent. I dealt with agent called Paul. He is always friendly and helped us with kids to get trolley for our luggage. I've dealt with Paul a few times now and he has excellent Customer Service skills. "
" Honest easy to menovour good results "
" Good customer sevice helpful fast "
" Positive experience from picking up the car to handing it back "
" ALWAYS FIND THEM VERY GOOD AT KNOCK AIRPORT. "
" Very reasonable price for the service. "
" Should continue with this third-party online marketing opportunities. "
" Additional charge placed on card when I returned the car. I queried it at their desk but was still charged. "
" Quick efficient great value Only problem was with the Avis rental company when we went to collect the car. Was not really interested in us as assistant kept mentioning its a broker you are with confused kept quoting us different prices and adding cost.At one stage I almost decided to cancel the whole thing but my husband said is it or not possible to use the auto Europe voucher Finally we got the car .We had to put our credit card with an excess of 1500 Euro with Avid even though we already paid Auto Europe an extra 30 Euro waiver "
" Definitely would not be interested in dealing with them Found them not helpful. Frustrating and confusing Have advised a number of friend not to go near them. "
" found the website straight forward enough and user friendly, also the best price around, so very happy "
" nice car and very customer friendly sales person, so very satisfied "
" Staff were very friendly and helpful. The shuttle driver from the airport to the pick up center was extremely friendly. We enjoyed him a lot. "
" Based on the feedback by Sixt, the extended insurance sold by Auto Europe does not correspond to their extended cover, so the client is left to have to pay anther insurance for getting full cover without excesses. Auto Europe needs to articulate better the insurance covers with the car providers in order to protect its clients. "
" Sixt tries to scare clients booking trough Auto Europe and make them buy and extended insurance cover. "
" Geraldine was very helpful. "
" Great service and very professional staff. "
" Relatively simple and easy to use. "
" Picked up and dropped off a car at Dublin airport. At both times all of the staff that I dealt with were nice and efficient, and the general service was top notch. Very quick processing of the pick up too. The shuttle bus drivers to and from the airport were helpful in terms of how to exit the airport and which road to take. I'd definitely rent from Sixt again. "
" Perfect, as usual "
" Perfect - we had an excellent welcome, a very professional service and a very friendly young gentleman working at the frontdesk in Dublin airport arrivals took care of us with much expertise and advice. "
" All went smoothly and as expected. "
" Nice friendly people and service with a smile. "
" Great experience "
" Arrogant clerk at the pick up desk at Dublin airport. Way too expensive insurance (3 day fee equivalent to 6 months insurance in Sweden). GPS malfunctioning. Non-reimbursed cross-border fee even though we did not cross any border. "
" prices were really extremely high for few days rental, which was disadvantage, however it was the best offer I found online. "
" I didn't receive car I booked, they said we have to wait 5-10 minutes or 6-7 hours for car to become available. After another intervention with the agent we receive 5 seater car and they promised someone will call me as soon as car become available. I got a call at 21.30 (which is 9hours after time of booking) and was informed car will be ready for us. We came following day and again we were informed car is not ready and had to wait 45 minutes before we could get proper car. I will not describe the car we receive as i have to say it was one of the worst cars i ever rented. We were really short of time, and we wasted time on waiting of exchanging car I should get it at first place. "
" Very long queue in trying to collect vehicle. When I was processed it then transpired that Budget didn't have a car for me, so therefore I had to sit and wait until a vehicle came available. Was. It impressed with overall waiting time "
" suggestion: If possible it would be a good service to provide a link with the relevant "rules of the road" for the country the hire car is booked. "
" When you send booking confirmation - IMMEDIATELY inform customer that security deposit is 1500 euro. Instead you have it as last sentence in the voucher attachement. "
" When using other rental companies in Ireland, they are happy with my annual car hire excess insurance and therefore I do not have to pay insurance to them. Avis did not accept that and I had a choice - to pay 1500 euro deposit (block in credit card) or pay 25 euro a day. Since I do not have limit on my card that high I had no choice. Won't use them anymore, at the end I paid more then for car hire in other (my preferred company) "
" I am satisified with your service not with Budget "
" When i went to collect the car i was told that a pre inpsection was done. When i got to the car i was overwhelmed by the amount of damage. I had to go back and ask them to come do an inspection with me. They obviously did not do a pre inspection as they said they had done. They have also failed to release the deposit block on my card even though they said they would do so immediately. It is now over 10 days later and still not released "
" Always good value "
" Insurance a bit too expensive "
" Great service "
" Check your hire car at the time of pickup to avoid any discussion with a car company! "
" I think it would be appropriated to put in big bold letters to customers that there will be a significant sum of money blocked on their credit card and to plan accordingly. Extremely disappointing to have nearly 50% of funds unavailable for the bulk of my time in Ireland despite taking out the full insurance through yourselves "
" As above, as well as the walk around for checking every minor chip that most drivers would have no control over driving on bitumen roads. "
" Either I read it wrong, but I purchased from yourselves additional insurance to cover the car for all eventualities however, when I arrived at the Avis desk, I was asked again if I wanted to purchase cover for all eventualities explained I had already purchased as per the voucher from yourselves only to be told that what I purchased wouldn't cover me for their excess ?1500 so not sure what I paid you for and as I was in a rush, just had to accept it and paid! "
" Not that impressed with them, when in the past I use Budget who they share services with, the service received from them was better! "
" To be honest, I was quite surprised to be given a car which had quite bad scratches on the back and side. We were told to check the car and had to go back to the terminal in the freezing cold to report more scratches on the back wing of the car. I think these things should be checked and fixed before the car is given to users. It was also a bit disconcerting to take out comprehensive insurance with Auto Europe to be told at the AVIS desk that 1500 euros would be held against my credit card and if I had any damaged I would have to seek compensation from you. Again, comprehensive insurance provides assurances to the driver and I feel this is double handling and misleading when it is not communicated up front when hiring a car. "
" I think they should check their cars to make sure the dents and scratches are properly recorded and noted at car pick up times if they are handing out damaged cars to drivers. Otherwise no issues with the experience. "
" excelleng staff friendly, professional and helpful. "
" Car gave no issues but the road tax disc was out of date. Girl at desk in Cork airport was excelling. "
" Soon after leaving the airport, a warning light came on while on the highway. It said low tire pressure and also showed a spanner symbol. When I contacted Budget, they advised me to top up the pressure in the tires at a gas station, which I did. The warning light did not go off. With the spanner symbol, they said it was probably just a notice that service would be required. I had an uncomfortable feeling that something could go wrong with this car at any time. Budget should perform more regular maintenance of their cars in order to avoid these types of warnings. I was not happy about this at all. "
" good service "
" v good "
" very pleased with the whole experience from start to finish "
" very professional -good car and courteous staff "
" Excellent customer service. "
" Thank you for all your emails etc. Very informative all the time online and the Car Hire was at a great bargain. Thank you. "
" Staff were very friendly, approachable and helpful. Smooth transition to everything from Airport to Car etc. Delighted with my experience. Would do it all again. The only thing I found difficult was getting back to the Airport Car Hire area to return the car. I ended up going around the Terminals twice. eventually I followed one of the Sixt shuttle busses to get there, that we had used earlier. The Orange colour stood out for me to find, very distinctive and helpful when looking for you. One way systems a nightmare sometimes. I had got mixed up with all the parking signs, long term parking signs etc. but all in all a great experience and will be better at it next time. Thank you "
" the receptionist needs to explain charges clearly and not deduct money from a credit card before explaining the charges. Totally unacceptable and wont be using you again for this reason. "
" It was easy to book and reasonable. simple site. "
" The staff were excellent, Helpful, friendly and efficient. "
" Was recommended Auto Europe by a friend and I am so grateful. Their website is so easy to use with everything listed clearly. Was so impressed with prices and it is a no brainer to use them. "
" Was greeted by Sixt staff at Dublin Airport with a smile and courteous professionalism which puts them ahead of so many car hire companies. They also were smartly dressed which gives the impression of a well run company. Paperwork was dealt with quickly and I was on the road in no time. Will definitely use them again. "
" excellent, particularly as the hire was to begin at such short notice, half hour. Will definately use again "
" friendly staff, all transactions including return quick efficient and trouble free. "
" excellent customer support. "
" No going to recommend this site, AVIS want 1600 holding on my credit card did not take the car but you were happy to take my money... cheap tricks of your website with small print "
" AVIS done there job "
" V misleading ! Arrived at the airport for my car and the Avis rep could not see on my booking that I had already paid Auto Europe 114.70 and proceeded to ' push' further cover on me which I figured he was only doing as my card details must only have been used to reserve the car and not actually been charged...as why else would he be asking me which cover did I want to purchase. I was confused and led to believe I hadn't actually purchased any cover online so bought the additional cover there from Avis for 273 Euro. It was only the next day I realised I had in fact been charged 114.70.from Auto Europe aswell as 273 from Avis. I was deeply upset and had to make numerous phone calls to rectify it which after causing much distress it finally wa "
" The rep I dealt with , Eoin, initially was rude and unfriendly when I approached the counter to pick up the car. I said hello and he didn't even reply, giving him the benefit of the doubt I smiled and said hello again and he still just stared at me blankly without as much as a hello. My mother who was with me , noticed also and even said afterwards how rude and unpleasant he was and v bad for business . I was v upset when I learnt that I had been charged twice, by Auto Europe and by Avis. And had to make numerous phone calls and sent an email of complaint. A lady called Anne from Avis was terrific in helping to resolve the issue. I was even crying on the phone the next day as I was that upset and she was v kind and resolved the issue "
" They weren't clear with pricing and we ended up paying more than expected for an upgrade. "
" Didn't see the small print about visa debt card "
" Didn't see the small print about visa debt card so it cost more to insurance a hidden cost and the lady at Avis office not that helpful "
" Hassle free booking and best value around! "
" Pleasant stuff at Shannon Airport, highly recommended! "
" i took out your insurance policy which i was happy with only concern was instruction could of been made more sampler in the event of an accident. who to contact what happens - procedure if you need to calm and how long i would take to be reimburse. "
" Staff very friendly and helpful. hire car was in poor condition nearly every panel was damaged. Car was still safe to drive, i should of been offered a discount due to the condition of the car. "
" Even mentioned at T&C, you should clearly mention, when booking, that excess refund additional coverage doesn't dismiss the need for paying the deposit at the rental company. Paid for an unuseful service. Also, it´s not possible to cancel immediately a reservation if required, so, I was unable to alter my reservation. "
" The car model provided was less equipped and spent more fuel than the exactly same car model provided by other company. Your providing outdated and lower quality cars than other companies and is better to choose other company next time. The renting process and service was nice and fast. "
" Great "
" Great "
" Took 2 hours to get car. No sign at Sixt counter in Airport terminal to direct people with an internet booking to the pick up location. I wasted 30 minutes queuing there. At car pick up area the gentlemen although very nice was extremely slow. "
" Terms and conditions not clear at all. Horrendous customer service when I rang up. Truly awful experience. Will never be using the service again "
" Car was quite old, and clunky, compared to the newer models that we have rented recently. It was a busy bank holiday weekend, and they had limited availability of vehicles. "
" Booked mini class and specifically a 4 door car which was listed as such in my confirmation. When picking up the car I was about to be given a 2 door car. After mentioning this I was given a "free upgrade". Then it turned out that the card I booked with cannot be used to hold a deposit and I had to pay for some insurance instead. This tripled my cost! I booked because it was such a good price and ended up paying way more than I can afford. Nothing like that was mentioned when booking online. I am not impressed at all, it ruined the whole trip! "
" Happy with their service "
" Amazing experience, "
" It wasn't mentioned clear enough that I need to have credit card on my name at time of car collection ( I payed via debit card) "
" nice staff but:1)when I arrived to collect the car I couldn't do it as I didn't have credit card. I had to comeback home and waisted around 1.5 hrs from my trip.2)when I cameback with credit card car wasn't ready at the location, was waiting another 15-20 min. 3)than they realized the car which arrived wasn't automatic as requested and they couldn't organise one when I told them I prefer automatic. 4)finally I was given diesel for free which would be more less difference between manual and automatic and they tryed to spin it like I'm making great deal.5)the tank was filled to about 3/4 (not full), so probably previous costumer payed for it.6)when I returned the car they gave me 15% voucher as VIP compentetion for next hire (really?) "
" Once booking was made it was very difficult to make changes to the named driver's name online. As you request it to be the same as passport/license. Many people go by shortened names or nick names. This should be easier. "
" On arrival they would not accept a debit visa card. I do not have a ccard. I was charged 21.50 per day on top of the actual carhire fee, which was paid in full when booking, using a debit card. I was assured this money would be reimburst to my account once the vehicle was returned. That has not happened. It is a lot of money for one week of car hire, this somehow needs to be reviewed. Please action the repayment to my account as I was assured. "
" When booking it would be useful if you could see 1) where the pickup area is i.e. at airport or via shuttlebus and 2) what the additional insurance costs are - these are two things that might make a customer pick one car over another when booking with you (if stuck for time or not wanting extra costs). Otherwise, I love using AutoEurope and find it great value... "
" Very helpful friendly staff, had a good experience... "
" There was no clear information about the 2000 Euro deposit Sixt claimed (in your e-mail: '[...] to an excess of aprox EUR 2000.00.'). My credit card has a standard 1000 Euro limit (which was always sufficient, even in Canada). I had to take an extra insurance of 361 Euro, to lower the deposit to 500 Euro and get the car. Insurance was redundant because of my personal, permanent rental-car insurance. A very expensive mistake in your information that could easily have been avoided by a clear warning in te documents/e-mails. It costed us a lot of valuable time and nerves and ruined our happiness for at least the first day of the holiday. I expect a reaction/proposal by e-mail. I could make my experiences public on the internet. "
" The employee that served us at the time of the pickup was friendly and helpful, but not able to provide a better solution than the expensive insurance. What really made us sick was the uninterested local manager at the time, who was no more helpful or understandig than telling us that "that is why you should always book directely at Sixt and not via a broker". I expect a reaction/proposal per e-mail. I could make my experiences public on the internet. "
" very happy frequent user of ur service...always best price for me in ireland and europe...my best choice...always easy to book..thank u..mike from ireland "
" Always good service and price. "
" Car OK. Very long queue in airport with only one employee at desk. Checked-in on site and then had to wait for the car to arrive. Long wait - very disappointing (prior Sixt experience was much better) "
" Great rates for car hire! "
" Car was good. "
" Good "
" Good - only thing was car was dirty outside- not washed properly "
" Terms and conditions are not clearly defined. It is asking you to pay ?1500 upfront to hire the smallest car. Then if you go for the option of paying the insurance for an extra ?30 a day you still must put down a deposit of at least ?300. Another confusing part is they don't accept any visa debit cards. You must have a credit card. The wording is confusing and is written in lawyer?s language pretending that you are a lawyer and should understand every single word. When I asked for a refund because I was confused with their terms and conditions their manager Joshua refused me in a very rude manner, he told me to read their terms and conditions again. "

" I do not know whether or not auto Europe is sixt, !85 I did not have any problems with renting the car online with auto Europe. My problem was when I got to sixt. "
" When I got to the sixt rental they charged me 296 dollars just for insurance when I thought it was just adding onto the 296 I paid for the car. I was not informed when she charged me that it was an additional 296. I was outraged. When I got the vehicle there was a dent in the number, the left tail light was busted, the left front tire didn't have a gun cap and then my first day driving in Ireland where it rains a lot the windshield came off track and almost caused an accident and then happened 2 more times!! Also I noticed it said the next oil change was May 2016 and I rented the car in October. I was not happy with this. "
" The car I rented was over two years old, the interior was smelly and the seats were badly stained. When I returned the car at 05:30 in the morning, there was a large queue of people with only one Budget staff rep working at the desk. "
" Now I don't try alternative sites anymore. "
" They are a pleasure to deal with. "
" The car I got had a few minor defects (scratches, dents, and a broken light etc) but none were mentioned when I was at the desk, nor were they listed on my rental agreement. Every rental I've got outside of Ireland has the defects pre identified. I had to inspect the car, and lsit any defact I found. While doing the inspection, a member of staff waited impatiently, and asked several times "was I done yet"? If I missed one on my initial inspection, would I be charged for someone elses defect? Or do they charge for the same defect multiple times? I have no way of knowing if that is their policy, but to my mind it certainly appeared that way. I could very well be wrong, but the suspicion I'm right would put me off renting Sixt in Dublin again "
" Appears to provide the most reasonably priced car rentall in Ireland "
" As with all car rentals, customers must ensure that any and all damage to vehicle is recorded by company personnel prior to rental. "
" very slow customer service in dublin airport, waited over 1 hour "
" very slow customer service in dublin airport, waited over 1 hour require more staff as the transfer involves bus from terminal to remote office and then 20 min wait for delivery of car from further remote site "
" Auto Europe Website was easy to use. No issues with Payment or Car Rental process. "
" Nice new car, exactly as ordered, ready to go. Personnel were friendly and efficient. "
" The agent who helped me change the pickup time made a huge mistake and also changed the pickup station. Thank God, you manage to fix it for me, and refund me the 20 euro extra. "
" The 5 Euro Credit Card charge is really annoying. I had the option to pay cash but they don't have any change. "
" Optional insurance does not cover in the Republic of Ireland, so it does not make sense to offer it for a rental in Dublin. "
" Was doublecharged. Paid in advance through auto europe, then Avis took a second charge off my credit card. No mention anywhere of where this second charge came from in any emails form auto europe. "
" Charged another 29.40 euro after returning the car without any notification or reason as to why. Car was returned in same condition with full tank. Charge was unauthorized. "
" Budget said the insurance I did with AutoEurope didn't count and I needed to hire another one. Plus I requested an economy car, didn't need to push me a cheap one as they did (burning light, cloak not working properly, no water in the windscreen wiper, etc). I always rent car from Hertz and I regret not doing with them directly this time, as the price including insurance was 3 times more if I booked directly with them. Awful experience. "

" ALAMO BY ENT is not very helpful to figure out that you must get your car from Enterprise instead of Alamo... "

" Not accepting my husband's credit card which we used for the booking was annoying. There must be a way around it, if its a standard consent form and a marriage cert copy, so be it, but we only have 1 credit card in the family. Also, why cant you use a debit card? You can take the money from it before providing a car, its the same difference. "

" We had to wait one hour before a car was available "
" I was charged just under $600, but needed to add nearly $400 to my charges on the other end in Shannon. The Hertz agent said I was overcharged by $300 for the basic rate, which I could have received had I done all of my business at their station at the airport. "
" It was simply transactional. A second drive was authorized, excess insurance purchased, and the agent commented I paid double their normal rate for the basic cost. "
" The car has some téchnicsl problems with the wheels pressure. Tjere was a ligth On. Please. Check this kind of issues before you rent a car. "
" very disapointed. I make a reservation with full insurance eith you, and I needed to make a new insurance with AVIS. That costed me allmost 200 Euros. I have been using your services for many years but with this will be the last. Is not coorect selling full insurance, charge for it, and then AVIS not accept it and need to make a new one. This I call steling money from your clients. "
" AVIS where very correct but did not accept your insurance that you charged for it.!!!! "
" Charged me for 10 days rent and refused to give me a car because I don't have a credit card. The charged my debit card and refused to refund the money. So why should I charged for 10 days rent, where they could've charged my debit card for the guarantee amount they want!! "
" excellent and efficient counter service. Good advice and quick hand over at hire and return. I would highly commend Budget staff "
" Sixt car collection at Dublin Airport needs improvement. It was a bit chaotic. My car was on time, but it took me 1.25 hour to get it. "
" Conned into buying useless excess insurance because website misleading "
" Easy to book. Quick confirmation and very reasonable prices "
" Polite and efficient staff. "
" The insurance cover prices are way to exspensive. That's where they make their money. Hertz or enterprise are the best ones. "
" i'm french and i rent a car for my hollidays in Ireland. I rent a car and paid a price which was not what i asked on the website. The compagny Budget imposed me an extra of 190? for 9 days, I paid 398?. I will never use this website or Budget again. "
" i'm french and i rent a car for my hollidays in Ireland. I paid the double price and i never have good explications. I arrive for rent the car and a girl said me my agreement on internet doesn't work, i need a new. In fact it was an extra of 200?. I called them and they answered it's me who asked an extra, I had to read my agreements (impossible to understand for me). When i returned the car, I asked them in the desk in Cork Aerport, they answered it's my fault because my Visa card is protect and they couldn't take 1500? for franchise (nobody spoke me about that. I think everybody lied to me and answer anything with the idea i'm stupid. Everybody enjoyed i'm french and used that for steal me ! I never had 2 times the same explications. "
" More help with setting sat Nav would have saved me some grief, as a person not used to using one. "
" The car was not the one specified, they tried to upsell an alternative car that was closer to the one I had specified. I declined due to excess cost. When in the office I was told the car had no damage recorded. When I received the car it had major damage to the front. This was a concern as I had to return to the office again for full damage assessment. That could have been done before I arrived which would have put me more at ease about taking a damaged car. The car was dirty too. Their no H2O cleaning system is not effective at cleaning their cars. "
" i was processed very quickly and was lucky there was no queue. Everything was explained to me and I felt there were no hidden charges "
" A complete dissatisfaction. I was not allowed to pick up the car, for the reason I was not carrying an international driver. It's very disappointing because I've being renting cars in Dublin (and Europe) for the last 6-7 months using different rental companies and no one has ever asked that. Recently I rented another car in Germany (using Enterprise/Alamo) and that was not required as well. I would kindly request to have my money back, because it was a 2-week rental agreement and no reimbursement so far. Waiting for a feedback. "
" The feedback above, mainly applies to Alamo, but I expect Auto-Europe to fix this situation, so I feel confident to continue using Auto-Europe services. "
" Over an hour of waiting to pick up a car because Budget overbooked. There was at least 10 other people who were waiting as well. Car that was finally given smelled and wasn't even cleaned. Worst experience ever. Will not use Budget again under any circumstances. "
" Car rental was fast and efficient would highly recommend "
" Polite, fast friendly service just great "
" Good site easy to use would use again although not the best prices "
" Very helpful staff would use them again good service "
" very helpful staff, would highly recommend Enterprise for car rental. "
" in dispute with budget over cheesey cars...bad brakes, stupid plastic key holders that were worn and broke making me loose car key...costing me $400 extra on my credit card for key replacement and towing charges "
" Sorry, but it wasn't enjoyable. I forgot my credit card and I didn't get that car. That girl in reception was very unkind. Even ,didn't offer any solution about it. Also I didn't get back my money. "
" The pick-up location was not the airport but was close to it. This should be clearly mentioned. "
" Avis call centre didn't mention that the pick-up/drop-off is not at the airport. "
" Budget could use more desk staff. "
" We arrived at the counter before 23:14 for a 23:00 booking, i.e. 14 minutes late, and the desk was closed (in both terminals). The rental company has since confirmed that they were not provided with the flight details by autoeurope and would have waited had they been aware of our flight status - every other rental company desk was open. "
" The radio/cd player was broke. Every time I turned the car the cd would try and kick in and couldn't turn them off! Also there was no water in the window washer "
" I would like a VAT invoice please "
" As I was renting a car in the country I live in it would have helped to know that the car rental was a bus ride from the airport as I could have gone there direct and saved time, but I know for the future "
" Picking up the car was fine, but fueling and the return were horrible. While standing in the rain in the return parking lot I was informed that a minor scratch would cost me up to 650 Euro. I've been home for two days and still do not know what the outcome of this drop off report is going to cost me. I was told to fill the car with diesel but never informed about an additive called Ad Blue. Me and my family spent hours visiting two garages and one dealership to rectify the situation. I called Thrifty and was told there would be consideration for this oversight and that I would be reimbursed for the costs. But the drop off person rudely dismissed this but reported the scratch. Have still heard nothing about the status of this transaction. "

" No complaints "
" Queue a bit slow on arrival, but the vehicle was excellent. "
" Make it more clear which insurance Company you work with. Some of your competitors use AXA - which have a very bad reputation. I chose to book through you because it seems as of you have another insurance partner "
" 1) when you free the blocked money on my Card, then send me a message 2) especially because the Irish culture is so friendly, you shoul learn your staff who recieve the car at the end of the rental period to do it the Irish way (I think these guys were from Poland, their culture is not a very friendly one - train them) "
" Everything worked to nperfection "
" Very efficient and helpful "
" No real problems. "
" Once the lady at the Avis desk realised I booked with Auto Europe she was rude, unhelpful and very abrupt. The back seat of the car had not been cleaned properly and someone had obviously been sick on it. When I picked the car up the guy didn't make sure I knew the car and also how to get out of the airport gate. I would never book Avis again. There many other options. "
" Very slow pick up. Queued for over 45 mins "
" The gent who dealt with my rental was exemplary. His first name is Brian, and he does a difficult job very well. "
" Once I got there I couldn't get the car because they didn't accept my credit car, which I used several times for renting cars. They asked for a mastercard, and my card is a Mastercard. I called the customer care number and they told me I could have got a refund only if I canceled the booking 48 hours in advance. My question is: how could I know that my Mastercard credit card wouldn't have been accepted by ENTERPRISE 48 hours before the moment I got there? "
" didn't accept my credit card (MASTERCARD!!!) and couldn't get any kind of refund!!!! "
" The Peugeot 5008 we rented was an excellent vehicle. We had four adults and got all our luggage into it with no problems. It got excellent mileage and was very comfortable for four people. "
" My only complaint was that you have to return the car to Hertz and there was no signage at Shannon airport directing Thrifty customers there. I had to ask at one of the other company return locations to find that out. Once there the service was excellent, however. "
" The only complaint I have is from when I collected the car. I was told that the car was being washed and had to wait quite a long time for it to be ready. As I had pre - booked this and for a designated time, I assumed that the car would be ready and waiting for me, or at least prioritised in the car wash. Also the cleaning products used on the interior were extremely strong - smelling. This did dissipate over the course of a few days, but the initial smell in the car was rather powerful. "
" The service is very good and rates are clear "
" Car was slightly damaged and was making strange noise when going backwards. The person as the Sixt desk took 20 min to check us in and gave us wrong information to add extra drivers. We'll never chose Sixt again "
" Cowboys stay clear of this company "
" Rude Cowboys stay clear of this company "
" Treated very well by Budget Staff at Shannon Airport, Car just across the road for pick up which made things very easy. Return swift and efficient. "
" It's the fifth car I've hired from Cork Airport, the first with your company. The car was great. The only problem I had was that the pedals (not the brake), were very slippery. I thought it must be my shoes. Not so because I changed three pairs. Finally rang Germany where I encountered a not so helpful man. Asked me why I hadn't called before the 6th day? Fair enough. He suggested I had spilt liquid on them, which I denied because I never eat or drink in the car. I could see this wasn't getting me anywhere, so after a lengthy period and being asked to hold the line I gave up. "
" Regarding the above issue I eventually called Budget, which I should probably have done initially. I encountered a most helpful gentleman, who suggested it might be cleaning fluid left from the last clean. He suggested I try to clean it with a rag, and if still not satisfied I could return it to Cork Airport, where it would be replaced for another vehicle. I took his advice but still found the pedals to be slippery, although I don't think quite as bad. Staff when I collected and returned the car were most efficient and helpful, as were the staff when I collected another one on 30 June. I visit Ireland regularly and will be happy to deal with your company in the future, especially as you're interested in drivers' comments. Thanks. "
" The pick up was very slow . The car was not a smooth drive. There were stains on the seats. "
" Everything went smoot. "
" Good service, keep it up "
" Overall is was a very good experience. Could improve the search engine to focus on what the cursomer needs, as it is not all about low prices. "
" Pick up service was reasonable. It is a bit boureucratic, as much of the information was or can be managed on-line. They have movements and hurried up to get away without taking the time to "understand" and "set the car" the car for the drive. The dropp off service was excellent, fast and efficient. The car itself was ok but the gear box has probably suffered from other drivers lacking knowlwedge about manual systems. It did not allow me to naturally place the stick in the right position, not even after 5 days driving. "
" The car was quite scratched when I got it "
" I found the website to be misleading and the quote was very unrepresentative of the actual cost of the rental. "
" The car was not ready for almost an hour and a half. "
" What can I say... You let me book and pay with my Visa Debit (less than 48 h before hire) and then you said no chance to pay the other expenses with Debit card. I couldn´t cancel the booking anymore and I just lost my money and you got it for nothing. This is horribly stupid to require only Credit card. Lot of people principally live credit and loan free lifestyle. "
" I know, manager could decide to let me pay with debit card but he didn´t. I hope he will have a happy life but I will never get in touch vith AVIS anymore. "
" queue for service was long "
" I would like to comment on the following. Firstly I was extremely satisfied with the car provided for the price which was a Nissan Qashqai. I hire weekly with you and would like / expect this level of car for the mid range in future. I realize this is not always possible but as a loyal customer I would ask you to take this into account and notify your suppliers. On the slightly negative side I arrived in Dublin at about 11:30pm and had a 3 hour journey through the morning so wanted to get away quick. With only one representative at the desk and the customer ahead of me taking a long time this took much longer than it should have and I would ask you to discuss this with Avis. Please take up with Avis. "
" With only one representative at the desk and the customer ahead of me taking a long time this took much longer than it should have and I would ask you to discuss this with Avis. Please take up with Avis. But on the positive side the rep was very pleasant and courteous. "
" Excellent Service. "
" Great Client Orientation. "
" Folks at Shannon airport were unbelievably kind and helpful. The car rental experiment was so cheap, so easy, and so convenient. "
" Apart from the long queue to pick up the car, everything was fine about our experience hiring from Budget, especially because our vehicle type got upgraded to a Mazda which was the perfect car! "
" I checked the website about using a debit card and it said nothing about having to be over 25 to use one so i didnt get my car hire "
" Have a policy that you can only use a debit card if your 25 or over so lost out on 65 euro from the rental "
" Very nice, professional employees when I picked up the car as well as when I brought it back. "
" Pretty expensive. "
" I was delighted with the service you provided and I loved the car that I rented. I will highly recommend to further colleagues and friends and every time I come back to Ireland for a visit, I will be renting a car again. I was very impressed!! "
" Excellent staff, very friendly and efficient "
" Very Satisfied "
" On line chat would be a great way to ask question that people may have before booking the care. "
" The staff in the agency that I pickup the car from in Old Killmainham Rd. were great, I enjoyed quick and friendly service "
" Quick and Excellent service both at pick up and return. "
" Good value. Nice car but not being able to use a visadebit card made it very awkward for me. "
" Waiting a long time to get service when returning with the car. "
" All went well.😁 "
" Everything was perfect😋 "
" Easy, professional "
" Excellent customer experience! "
" I'm disappointed that upon purchasing insurance with autoeurope, it was not accepted by Hertz who went and blocked my credit card. Very disappointing. "
" I'm disappointed that purchasing insurance with autoeurope was deemed insufficient and felt I was further penalised with my credit card being blocked by Hertz.This technically is paying twice for car insurance. I'm extremely disappointed and don't understand why Hertz have an agreement with autoeurope if they don't accept their car insurance conditions. So what's the point? "
" I didn't have many informations at store, so I couldn't take the car. When I called auto Europe they didn't help me and the details wasn't good. I hate this experience and I'm very disappointed with this company. "
" No issues at all. Excellent service and the shuttle bus works perfectly. "
" Excellent service "
" Great staff "
" The shuttle driver directed us to the office at the car collection lot. This area was packed with only two of the four desks occupied. There was no signage indicating what the desks were for as many people had envelopes and keys, nor was there a que control system. We were spotted by a staff member as we only had receipts and were told to go to a key collection hut outside! Not sure why the shuttle driver could not have done that. Checking the car back in was confusing and no documentation releasing the diposit was issued at the time. "
" Cheapest price around and a clear website to navigate. Easy to see the best value because of a great screen layout. No extras as the price you see is the price you pay. "
" Good service. Friendly staff and a great new car provided. "
" $1350 (excess refund) was charged into my credit card by mistake. It took me 2 days calling and trying to understand the problem......and I had to pay it to get reimbursed later on.... "
" My experience was impacted by an Additional two unauthorised charges taken from my credit card by Hertz , over Two weeks post the rental was completed (i.e two weeks after full payment have been made and car returned without issue). "
" My experience was impacted by an Additional two unauthorised charges taken from my credit card by Hertz , over Two weeks post the rental was completed (i.e two weeks after full payment have been made and car returned without issue). Honesty and trust are key components of any ongoing commercial relationship..and in this case this issue would impact my future decisions wrt use of car rental companies. "
" I have tried to make contact with them regarding my security deposit which is still on hold on my card and the car was returned on Monday but they have not got back to me. Also the communication about the drop off point of the car on my return to Dublin Airport was not given to me so I was just supposed to be a mind reader! "
" Not satisfied, You offered me insurance which is not covered by AVIS, so I had to pay insurance twice "
" When I rented a car, there was nothing about insurance and deposit "
" Alamo wanted to block 500 on my credit card although I wanted to get their full assurance for the car. They say that their company do that (Enterprise, Alamo,etc). If so why this is not mentioned before. At the end I didn't rent the car. In last fifteen years (except the last two) I rented cars 12 month per year and this is the first time that something similar happened to me. "
" When the company hides important elements of its offer it means that something is wrong. If you want to block 500 (with no reason since full assurance is agreed) then put that down transparently in your offer and wait to see if clients will come to you or to your concurrency. "
" So easy to use, clear and straight forward. It's my go-to website for booking cars at home and abroad. Reliable and reasonably priced always. "
" The renting and the price were very good! "
" When I rented the car with Auto Europe I choose the Full Excess cover but no where on there side this insurance would appear, so I had to give me credit card for a 1500 deposit. If we decide to choose for full cover, we shouldn't be treated the same way as a person who didn't. Appart of that, the car was pretty nice; I even got a diesel one! "
" I am not sure why insurance is offered through AutoEurope which the provider does not recognise in the end. and will charge you for another insurance instead. "
" Very good, friendly staff in the office and nice new car. "
" When reserving the car I paid an extra 30 euros or more for the full insurance package from the same hire car company. When collecting the car I still had an excess of 2,000 euros and I can't understand what difference there was between the cheapest price offered on your service and the most expensive. I felt cheated. "
" The check in process at the airport was extremely slow. We waited over 40 minutes in the queue despite there being only 2 people ahead of us. It was very poor. "
" I booked a car for my wife using my credit card, they refused to give her the car, I asked to change the reservation by her card and they refused "
" I booked a car for my wife using my credit card, they refused to give her the car, I asked to change the reservation by her card and they refused "
" Because great people, Budget is my first and only option, very friendly and professional, thank you all!!! "
" Always very good I used you in the different countries and allway everything ok "
" Even when I bought full insurance I still was ask by Thrifty to pay additional 35 per day to get full cover "
" Great chooses and great prices! Very easy to book - thank you very much. "
" Very easy and smoth pick up and return. Nice, clean car. Fuel deposit refined promptly. Many thanks. "
" Car was not ready for pick up. Long wait. Everything else was ok. "
" Got best rates with best rental agency "
" The team was good, but they were not ready to give a letter for driving test. Not sure why, The excuse was lame... "
" Good customer service provided, easily resolved reservation changes through the toll number. Also very useful for finding cheap car rentals for my age group. "
" Together with my friend we booked a car (MANUAL) on 9th April for 2 days, and drove to wicklow. We were unable to identify a clutch problem that was probably damaged before we started driving, and the car had problems halfway on the first day. No replacement car provided, and they deducted 300euros from the bank account with no email to account for anything at all. No refunds have been made. Until now, we can't contact customer service regarding this matter. VERY DISPLEASED. "
" You should specificly state that credit card is mandatory in order to pick up the vehicle BEFORE booking a car. We were unable to get the car! Sixt was not willing to accept the deposit via debit card or cash! This messed up our plans and had to use public transportation instead... We are expecting a refund!!! "
" Why security deposit is only possible via credit card? Debit card or cash should also be supported! We were unable to pick up the car and because of that, had to reschedule our trip! Other car rental companies accept debit cards or cash just fine!!! We are expecting a refund!!! "
" We have used Auto Europe twice, in Italy and in Ireland. We were very happy both times. In Italy, we changed our reservation to fewer days. The cost went up, rather than down but the customer service rep was able to fix that and to give us helpful advice about driving in Italy. "
" We needed a car asap in Dublin airport as Sixt Car rental was trying to charge extortionate insurance plus a huge deposit on our credit card. We went online to Auto Europe who was able to link us up to a reasonably priced deal with Avis. In less than a half hour, the voucher from Auto Europe had arrived at the Avis counter and we were able to get our car. We really appreciated the quick service and the inexpensive car. "
" Price was higher than normal for Auto Europe but I was a little late booking "
" Worked well. No issues "
" Lovely staff at Kilmainham, Dublin "
" Everything just perfect with the booking with auto europe "
" when picking up car , got 3 different cars . 1st car , when checked car it had no road tax and a lot of marks on car that was not on car check sheet.. 2nd car , had left the airport and gone 20 mins and got phone call to return car as the should not have giving me this one . 3rd car all good until i returning it , had to pay excess as i had it out for extra day and told them to take it off a credit card and gave details at desk but she took it off the card i had held car with and she didnt know how to change it , so had to go to a different building to get another person to change it on to other credit card .

" Very simple web site to use and very easy access to collect and drop off cars, I recommend them to anyone "
" Very helpful and polite, I would recommend them to everyone "
" Not helpful "
" Use visa debit "
" Was good "
" Yes good "
" Great website, great offers, consistent "
" Sixt at Bakers Corner are very good! "
" Very good "
" Excellently "
" YOU HAVE THE OPENING TIMES WRONG. WITH SIXT ITS FROM 0500AM UNTIL 0000 MIDNIGHT "
" VERY GOOD. MY CAR SHOWED ALERT ON DASHBOARD AFTER 10 MINS DRIVING. WENT BACK AND THEY WHERE VERY SORRY AND GAVE ME BETTER NEWER CAR. "
" I had a nice car and weekend shuttle with friends. "
" Allan is friendly. Avis garage is not difficult to locate. Thanks. "
" excellent price, easy to book "
" car and service excellent "
" Excellent customer service from everyone I met, especially Paul Power Who delivered the car keys to me and his female colleague. I would also like to compliment the guy at the car hire desk in Terminal 1 whom also was so helpful and nice to me. As an Irish citizen coming on a visit home it's so nice to get the genuine Irish excellent customer service. It makes you proud to be Irish. All of the people I dealt with on the Alamo/ Enterprise desks are a credit to you and Ireland. Thank you. "
" On line booking was very good and uncomplicated. Very pleased. "
" Sarah and Jason were excellent, polite, professional and a pleasure to deal with. The collection and drop-off service is superb. "
" Excellent Service "
" Superior Excellent service, the best car hire that I have had a car from in a while. I got a Toyato Avensis which was a lovely car. "
" Collecting the car on Friday, I was satisfied. Returning the car on Sunday, I was dissatisfied. Customer service was not very friendly, and when they checked the car, they began to blame me for a black rubber mark on the rear passenger car door (that had been there on collection). Before blaming the customer, research into whether it had been there previously should be completed. "
" Good price, easy to deal with, no hassle "
" Very efficient "
" AutoEurope is a great economical car hire service. However, it seems to me that the Car Hire companies are less friendly to those customers who rent through this service probably because they pay such much better rates. Avis gave me a two-year old car that had stains on the upholstery and scratches on the body. That was after I declined the first car they offered. The pick-up was delayed by the need to choose a different car and Avis tried to charge me for an extra day when I returned the car. Auto Europe is a good service but the attitude of the Car Hire firms is disappointing. "
" Avis should respect customers who take advantage of discounted prices that they willingly offer. I am not treated differently if I buy something in a department store during a sale rather than at full price when the sale is finished. That is my opinion and applies to my experience only. It may not be general practice at Avis outlets. "
" Very quick to pick up and drop off the car "
" Very quick to pick up and drop off the car "
" You should only use firms who use diesel cars "
" Wanted to charge and upgrade to diesel for extra money "
" GREAT PRICES, CLEAR INFORMATION "
" GOOD CARS, QUICK DELIVERY "
" Apart from choosing a Volkswagen Jetta & then being told they do not have that type of car at all. Rental experience was pretty good "
" I do not feel that I was made fully aware of the cost of the daily insurance with the statement "Optional coverage may be available locally at an additional cost that will reduce the excess." being very vague. "
" Hi, the experience was fine, except that I was charged by Budget in the moment of pick-up for the fuel (in case the car was not returned fully charged) - 123 euros, and I returned the car full and it was not refunded. Can you pls solve this for me ? 09/02 BUDGET RENT-A-CAR 575,32 IRELAND 123,75 (EUROPEANMON) 139,98 (U. S. DOLLAR) 10/02 AUTO EUROPE 1.101,89 GERMANY,FEDERAL RE 235,65 (EUROPEANMON) 268,10 (U. S. DOLLAR) "
" Very friendly and efficient staff, and nice car. "
" It was NOT clearly indicated that I would need to have a credit card balance of 1450 to avoid HAVING to pay an additional 159.99 for insurance and security. Yes, I will get a refund of 95, but I need that money LAST weekend! I am now also paying referral fees to my bank for being overdrawn. Very disappointed with the lack of clarity in this. It should be VERY CLEARY STATED that there WILL be additional charges (NOT optional charges) when collecting the car. "
" I'm as disappointed with Avis for (a) charging me these additions, and (b) not insisting that AutoEurope make these charges clear on their end. There should be exact amounts stated before I commit to the rental. The whole experience was left me feeling very angry and like my money was being extorted from me. I don't intend to use either dealer again. "
" Second time booking with Auto Europe, it is simple, clear and without any trouble. I will book again through them "
" We were pleasantly surprised when a brand new clio keys were given to us, with navigator included, it was excellent service and car! It saved our journey through rural Donegal! "
" It has been an excellent experience, easy, without any problem or hidden fees. I definitely recommend it "
" Excellent service, straight through, we were even offered to return car to airport terminal, more convenient. Car was bigger and better than expected as well. I definitely recommend AVIS "
" The operator over the phone was uninterested in what i had to say and kept pushing his own agenda instead of trying to find a solution. He was stuck up and unreasonable and i had to ask him multiple times to put someone else on the phone. Although the other person that came on the phone wasnt that friendly either that person found me a solution to my problem to which everything eventually worked out in the end. Customer service agents should to try to find a solution any way possible as i believe this is good customer service and not to try start and argument or act arrogant over the phone. FIND A SOLUTION, be understanding no matter how arrogant the person you're dealing with is. "
" Upon my arrival i treated politely. Everything was handled to a professional standard and the process was very quick and smooth. I had my car in minutes and i was on my way out. I'm very satisfied and will be recommending them and using them in the future. All the problems that was created from the agency Auto Europe was non existent with AVIS. if only i had dealt with AVIS directly! which i will in the future things would have gone quicker and with out any stress. "
" Extremely friendly, polite and personable service, even kept the office open a few minutes extra for me as I was running late to collect my car. I would not hesitate to use Enterprise again in the future. "
" AutoEurope had the wrong opening times for Sixt and ended up running to the counter thinking they are shut at 23.00. When they don't close till 24.00. "
" excellent. The only thing was the passenger wing mirror cover was missing. "
" Fantastic service, thank ! :-) "
" Very good "
" Very efficient "
" John was particularly helpful and friendly. "
" Great thank you "
" They were nice enough apart from trying to upswell my various insurance and not knowing what they were doing with regard to my card deposit etc. they said I should have book directly because you didn't pass my details and they couldn't get in contact with me re my car hire, for what I do not know "
" Awful customer service,ignorant and no interest in helping me out in a situation where I was unable to hire the car due to not having a credit card. I was left stranded without a car and unable to attend a wedding in cork, yet auto Europe still took the money and refused to refund it. They also provided a fake contact phone number to enterprise who I was hiring the car from. Enterprise were trying to contact me to inform me that a credit card was needed to hire car but were unable to,until I turned up and was told this at the last minute. Avoid auto europe, they are gangsters "
" Could not really do anything to help me as the booking was handled by autoeurope "
" Staff were very helpful and friendly thanks pat and rose "
" Great service ! "
" Excellent service "
" Excellent "
" Simple and effective booking process "
" Very easy to deal with. No issues "
" I upgraded to an Insignia but surprisingly it was very basic with no Bluetooth- I thought all cars now had Bluetooth. AutoEurope were their normal efficient selves. Disappointed that AutoEurope did not honour their price promise with me and consequently I have now hired my next car through another broker. A pity, I wanted to stay with them. J "
" Don't buy cars without basic features. "
" Amazing prices with even better customer support "
" Great service "
" I've paid for insurance plus in the web site and I needed paid at the store, so I'm gonna look for a replacement os this charge! "
" The volkswagon up we got is not suitable for steep hill areas very little luggage space "
" The staff were very friendly and very helpful would definatley use your company again and reccommend to family and friends "
" Staff extremely helpful. Knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. Will certainly use Thrifty again. "
" EXCELLENT SERVICE "
" VERY FRIENDLY STAFF WHO WERE GOOD HUMOURED AND HELPFUL AND EFFICIENT. GOOD SELECTION OF CAR OPTIONS. wOULD BENEFIT FROM 1 OR 2 ADDITIONAL STAFF ON DUTY FOR EARLY MORNING RETURNS ESPECIALLY WHEN TIM TO CATCH FLIGHTS IS SHORT AND SECURITY CHECK LINES LONG "
" A car was booked and within 6 hours of booking the car was not picked up as the charges was not taken from my visa debit even though I presented my credit card for certain amount to be taken from both cards in my name and was refused. Hence, I requested for the booking refund. Only to be told that refund cannot be made. Really bad policy not minding the stress I went through taken a taxi to the airport for collection of the car the customer service declined. David Moyosola "
" Did not get to use the service and request a refund "
" same reason "
" I have used pretty much all the big names to date and unfortunately have had the worst experience with Sixt. I booked a class D and the guy tried to give me a Class C until I objected. I was told the car was "fresh" with no damage but that wasn't the case. On returning the car I waited about 30mins for a shuttle back to the airport rather than the 5-10 mins as promised. Staff generally seemed disinterested in me needing to catch a flight. "
" Very professional people from front desk to boys collecting and checking cars at the end... "
" Excellent. Efficient and friendly, no fuss, no mess, rapid turnover both ends. "
" Staff could not be more helpful "
" Great system "
" Always fantastic service "
" Great value quick and easy to book .Have not seen better out there "
" Fast ,friendly, helpful and courtous. Great car and diesel option was appreciated. "
" enterprise were very helpful and thorough. I would definitely rent with them again. Very nice car, service and very accommodating "
" Enterpreise rent a car charged in our credit card incorrect charges, that we paid before, the incorrect amount is 45,44, we want our money back as soon as possible. "
" Enterpreise rent a car charged in our credit card incorrect charges, that we paid before, the incorrect amount is 45,44, we want our money back as soon as possible. "
" Work on getting the car hire companies to accept Auto Europe's inclusive (total) insurance package with the view to avoid 1500 euro being blocked on ones credit card. The whole area of insurance costs when renting a car is grossly over charged. "
" On inspection my hire car was considerably scratched ,more than was documented on the condition sheet. So I had to go back in and ask sixt to add the additions to the sheet. I fond this poor service and i was given the oldest car on the block,70km on the clock. Perhaps because I got a very good deal from Auto Europe. On the plus side my car was very clean inside and mechanically sound. "
" Excellent price, excellent service received from Budget customer service in Dublin. "
" Excellent. Friendly, efficient staff. I received the best customer service ever and I regularly hire cars in Ireland and Nice France. "
" More discount offers "
" Nothing! Keep up the good work. "
" Great service great price- Need I say more! "
" Pick up and collection efficient and staff very friendly and helpful. Car great. However on return there was no shuttle bus available to transfer me to the airport for early flight. Ended up taking shuttle from another company to make the flight. Early transfers need to be planned for especially when airport is busy and flights are early. "
" rang to try to ensure that a particular car was in stock. Was told that it was. Arrived and it wasn't. Rang rather than book online to try to avoid this occurring. Disappointed "
" Great car/great price.Only issue is the LONG wait to get your key. You need more staff !! "
" It could not have been easier to book my car and I had trouble in having the collection time changed "
" As always staff are friendly courteous and cold not be more helpful "
" I was unable to rent the car I paid for because I used a Visa Debit card to pay online for the vehicle, but was only told when i went to collect the car that I needed a credit card for the security deposit. It should be prominently stated on your website that Debit Cards are not acceptable payment. I will be bringing this issue to consumer affairs authorities in Ireland and Europe, including the Ombudsman's offices in Dublin and Brussels. I am also contacting the media to pursue an investigation of your company/s business practices in Ireland and other European countries. I am sure I am not the only victim from the hidden cost of using your website. "
" I was thoroughly disgusted with the treatment I received by this company. I offered to pay the !,200 euro security deposit in cash, which they refused. Therefore your company and Enterprise have profited from my use of your website and I did not even receive a car, which has been paid for and was necessary for me to attend an important family event which I was unable to be present at. i will be seeking legal advice regarding Enterprises's business practices, and the lack of warnings on your booking website that Debit Cards are not accepted. My treatment by your customers services phone operator was also disgraceful, who told me the loss of my money was my own fault for reading the "fine print" in the booking form. "
" Please be explicit about the different full-coverage options and how to REALLY reduce the excess. Your insurance (that I didn't take) is useless and so is Alamo's "
" Couldn't take the car even with the full insurance coverage because of the excess?! "
" Good experience. "
" COMPETETIVE AND VERY EASY TO NAVIGATE "
" HELPFUL FRIENDLY STAFF, PROMPT SERVICE, CAR FINE BUT A LITTLE DATED. "
" Fantastic. I always use Auto Europe for car booking wherever I travel to. No complications what-so-ever. "
" Very good. I would like to see better signage at Dublin Airport to make it easier to find the office of Enterprise. I had to ask Hertz which office it was. "
" Enterprise is an excellent company to get a car from. "
" Really good value for money and quick and easy to complete booking. Used to use Rental Cars .com but having done some price comparison this offered much better value "
" Very satisfied with overall package. There was some delay in waiting for the shuttle bus at the airport but this was minor. Staff warm friendly efficient and helpful "
" Windscreen dirty and smudged. When we returned the premises and restroom were disgusting. I have photos of both mens and women's if you want "
" good, quick, and best rates usually "
" very slow at airport desk ! "
" Accepted debit card for payment but required visa card for rental.took my money ,got no car. Same company renting cars on debit card in other location two miles away.would not transfer rental to other pickup spot paid twice for one car required for a funeral "
" Same as above, called another rental firm. "
" very happy with price "
" very happy with customer service ;) "
" 2000 euro deposit is not clearly specified and it would have been a problem if i hadn't my debit card. 2000 euro were taken from my account and still waiting to have them back "
" It's efficient and close to my house. Will rent with them again. "
" Staff at airport desk and drop off desk were excellent. Staff at pick up office were very unhelpful. Had paid for a baby seat which the airport desk specifically asked the pick up office to install while we were waiting for the transfer shuttle. Arrived to be told 'to pick one from that pile over there'. We had to install it. Not one of the 4 people behind the desk offered to help us in any way. They were a disgrace. I would be very reluctant to use Budget at Dublin airport again (all things being equal, I would opt for another provider). "
" I had issues with pre-authorising the excess on my credit card, the excess amount (which was prohibitive) was not specified by Auto Europe on its website and this incurred an extra payment of 20 per day to cover excess. "
" Budget stated that I should claim for a refund for the2 day as the car was only picked up at 11:30 which changed the rental period to 4 days instead of 5. "
" Better communication between Auto Europe and Thrifty re the product being sold. Also better clarification re insurance and how it operates. "
" Booking had free additional driver but Thrifty tried to charge me for it at collection stage. Once I showed the booking form it was to be given free of charge. When I returned the car they produced a visa receipt for the additional driver . Once I explained the situation and produced the booking form they said I could reclaim it in the airport. However, I was not going to the airport and after waiting fir a Manager and a bit iof discussion got a refund of the charge. Also they blocked over 2000 on my visa even though I had taken out insurance with Auto Europe. "
" Always good "
" The waiting time was very long ; I filled out the paperwork at terminal desk and then had a long wait for a courtesy bus to car park area . Then another wait in the queue for getting the keys ; the paintwork of the car was scratched in a number of places , it made me feel uncomfortable ; I indicated a few few places which were not marked on the sheet and went back to the office; this all took more time . The car did not sound too good when going above 100km/hr , maybe that's they way its meant to sound (Opel Corsa)however it drove OK no problems. I think Budget could do with another mini-bus and some more staff at the desks in Dublin airport "
" I was a bit taken aback when I was charged nearly 30 euros to drive through Northern Ireland. That alone would make think twice to book with you again. "
" The staff had zero personality and were just going through the motions. "
" On arrival at collection desk in Donegal discovered that a credit card was required. Result...no car hire and outrageous taxi charges. Apparently credit card is mentioned on booking documentation, but I would suggest that it needs to be highlited better. Cannot complain about chap behind counter as he was as helpful as the rules allowed. "
" Cannot complain about chap behind counter as he was as helpful as the rules allowed. "
" There was an issue with my booking / it was cancelled by mistake. But after that everything was ok it could be reactivated "
" I had always been very satisfied with A.E. However, my last trip was disastrous! Waited for over an hour at Sixt while they were 'cleaning' the car. It was the dirtiest (seats all stained) car I've ever rented. I rented a 'volkswagen jetta or similar', ended up with a corolla!! It was petrol & I asked them for a diesel, they had none in stock!! They had loads of cars their but wouldn't let me change, they did say I could come back during my trip to swap to a diesel car but who has time for that? I explained that in every other example that I've had, where the provider didn't have an appropriate car, they have upgraded me to a higher model. Their sales pitch on insurance now has my questioning the upgraded insurance I got from AE!!! "
" Nice website and its easy to book "
" I was given a citreon C4 instead of a ford galaxy which is a not a full size. I had to return C4 because its too small for 7 people and they gave me a bigger size as the one I booked. wasted an hour because ofthat. Also the one I booked was automatic and the one I got was manual. "
" perfectly simple to use "
" friendly, helpful and efficient; couldn't ask for more "
" Thank you for asking for my feedback! When I arrived at the Enterprise desk in Dublin airport I was told that as I don't use (this is deliberate!) a creditcard, I couldn't rent the car even though Auto Europe had already taken the car rental fee off my visa debit card! A colleague of mine ended up having to drive out to Dublin airport, putting 350 authorisation on his creditcard and having to put the car rental under his name! A very embarrassing experience. If you only accept creditcards, why do you take the money off debit cards ? I would welcome answers to my query before I take this further. Thank you "
" great team..the best out there...i have rent few times with nearly everyone in past 14 years in Ireland but they r the best. "
" I took the car back and nobody called me to tell me anything about this and my diposit (1950) it hasn't returned in my account yet "
" the same as last paragraph "
" Poor pick up location; Had to wait 20 minutes before being look after at pick up. "
" When I arrived at the Thrifty offices to collect the car at 17.20 on the appointed day the offices were shut. They closed at 17.00 which ment I had to stay overnight and collect the next day. They said that AutoEurope had not updated their website. I am glad that I was not a tourist. "
" They guy who was at the Thrifty offices gave out a number that just when onto a message minder. Also the car I picked on the display panel it said it needed a service. Also a light came up about the oil and when I rang the office on the day I collected the car they told me it was ok. I questioned if the car brokedown, they said it would not be my problem because i called the office and notified them. If the car brokedown they would send someone out which was not what i had planned as i was already 12 hours behind schedule. So I was not to happy on both accounts. James "
" Autoeurope should offer (in Spain), Goldcars "Return Full" option called Classic service (or similar). This would obviate all the hassle about fuel costs. Goldcar offer it as an option on their own website "
" Car and service were excellent. It was Enterprise not Alamo. There was quite a lot of "upselling" by Enterprise staff but not intrusive "
" I rent frequently for business & leisure (15 times per year) mostly with Autoeurope.ie frequentlyI know in advance my travel requirements and have flexibility about dates - it would e very useful if you could have a feature which shows the price of cars (of each class) for rentals beginnings each day in a month. skyscanner have this feature for flights which allows one to pick the cheapest day in the month to fly on a particular route - this feature would be very useful as one could organise flights and other travel arrangements around car hire rates, which in the era of low fares airlines can be the biggest travel cost "
" They are good and efficient - the hard sell on extra insurances is annoying particularly as most is misleading -but they all do this "
" Enterprise/Alamo have the best customer service at Dublin Airport. The reps are engaging, come to the outside of the counter to walk you through the sign up and walk you out to the car. Their tolerance for car damage (anything smaller than a certain size or depth is ignored) makes driving their cars a bit more relaxing, therefore enjoyable. "
" I could not take the car I had paid 146 as I was using a visa debt and not a visa credit & could not have any refund "
" The staff were fantastic, but the company's rules on not being able to pay for insurance and other extras with cash or a debit card are ridiculous. You must remember that not everyone has a credit card, and enforcing that customers must use one to pay for the insurance, and not by other means was extremely frustrating. I needed a car asap as mine was being repaired, it is such a shame that the process isn't as easy as booking and paying online, which I had done. i wont be using Alamo again for this reason. The only reason I am not extremely dissatisfied is that the staff were polite and helpful. "
" I've no problems with Auto-Europe but I no longer rent at Gerona Airport, Spain because every company now charges 9/day to take the car over the border to my house in France. Hertz didn't do this but they have left Gerona Airport. "
" The Thrifty young man was rude and uncooperative, although I am a Hertz Gold Card member. He assured me (in writing) that the tank was full although the guage said it was less than 1/4 tank. he knew I was a retired woman travelling alone in the evening to the West of Ireland. The car ran out of petrol an hour out of Dublin. I complained to Hertz who were receptive but have not got back to me at all in the 10 days since I complained. If they had I wouldn't be telling Auto Europe about the incident. Poor customer service. "
" Very good service, great price. I did need to buy extra CDW insurance online from a different site because of the attitude of the car rental company (see below). "
" It may have just been this particular Enterprise office but they seemed to treat me as a lower class of customer because I had booked through a broker. They made it awkward for me to collect the car at a time that suited me due to, they said, needing to get cars out to other customers (presumably Enterprise customers). They then gave me the hard sell on CDW insurance costing more than the rental price or else, and I quote "if there's even a scratch on the car we will have to charge you 1,600 on your card". "
" Auto Europe accepted our credit card for initial payment knowing that the rental company would not accept (credit card was not in drivers name). We accept that this was written in the terms and conditions, but the money should never have been taken given the drivers details were provided upon payment. When we contacted auto Europe they refused a refund simply stating that we should have read the terms and conditions. Given this, I will be recommending all my friends and family do not use auto Europe and will go so far as to post on social media not to use auto Europe to ensure auto Europe gets the respect it provides its customers. Zero. "
" Initial customer service was very poor, secondary service was very good. "
" Extremely friendly and helpful...I would only suggest to keep the office going 24/7, it IS an international airport, or at least until the last plane lands, had to wait 4.30 hours to pick up the car "
" Smooth and lots of easy-to-understand choices. "
" Helpful and friendly "
" I'm completely dissatisfied with costumer service, because in your website had an information and your store another information. I hired a car in morning Monday, however I couldn't finish this transaction, because I didn't have credit card and I knew that information time to go pick up the car. In store I was told that I couldn't cancel it since it had made the booking on the website, however may request cancellation the next day and get the money back with no problems. On Tuesday when I called to cancel, simply they asked me apology and informed me that it should have canceled in advance. But I wonder, how would cancel in advance sé only learned that could not use the car when I pull it off? Anyway, I will no more use their services or recommending to my acquaintances and divulge what happened so no one else is deceiving by their website and the Alamo. "

" He left explicit on the site all fees. When I called I was told that all fees were included. When I arrived at the rental company I had to pay additional insurance. We booked 2 cars, but my friends the other car could not pay the additional insurance and lost the reservation. They lost money. "
" As my friends failed to pay the additional insurance to stay with the car, ALAMO said he was not the problem, it was easy to ask for the money back from the cancellation. But we try it with AuroEurope and we could not. We lost our money booking without using the car. "

" As my plan changed I could change the rental. This is the reason I have booked by next rentals from Autoeurope "
" Very good efficient service I will book with them again this month "
" WEbsite easy to use & car was perfect "
" Superb customer service at check in desk "
" I have always booked hire cars through Auto Europe as the price quoted is exactly what you pay, unlike another company which charges an extra pick up charge of 26 euro at Dublin Airport. dave "
" Sixt I thought were excellent. No hidden charges, you got exactly what you pay for. I would certainly book them again through yourselves. dave "
" I drove very little this time, car was ok for a budget car staff is very nice "
" Great customer care "
" Great customer care "
" Great service !!! you call a rental agency, they give you a huge pricing then when you check on Auto Europe the same car is much much cheaper !! good, excellent service ! "
" when I rent a car via Auto Europe with Budget, I pay only the cost of the car and a very cheap insurance with Budget. With Enterprise, I paid more than 240e extra for insurance and fuel - Iwill definitely use Auto Europe to book cars with Budget but not with Enterprise anymore "
" Staff were very nice and friendly and courteous. "
" Easy to find and easy to deal with. "
" easy usable webpage and even the iPhone App is working brilliantly "
" Service was again perfect even it was busy at the time I picked up the car "
" A very quick, friendly and efficient service "
" As above "
" I find Auto Europe brilliant and I recommend them to everyone. "
" I found the experience not very good. They were quiet busy when I arrived but then they had no cars for their customers. They asked the person ahead of me in the Q and then me and a least 4 people behind me to take a seat and a car would be brought around in about 10 to 15 mins. In all it took 45 minutes from arriving at their office to getting my car. The staff were very nice and were trying their best to assist but I think 45 minutes is not very acceptable. "
" Very satisfied with their web site and ease of booking. "
" Very friendly staff. Lovely car "
" Keep up the good work "
" Great staff - always friendly and helpful "
" No problems, everything went well. "
" All good, no delays, car fine. "
" Autoeurope always gets my auto right. "
" Always bring your voucher. I didn't and I nearly had to pay out 170 euro extra. Girl said I had booked through the American autoeurope website. Fortunately I had my phone to hand which showed I didn't. "
" Everything was fine as usual "
" friendly and helpful as usual "

" Always a better rate in autoeurope. "
" Excellent service, I was served by a nice lady called Linda. She made the rental process swift and smooth. I will definitely be using again Avis through autoeurope "
" Very happy with the highly competitive rates the company can provide me with from time to time. Keep up the good work! "
" Very happy with the high degree of professionalism of AVIS staff, and the competitive rates the company can provide me with from time to time. Keep up the good work! "
" Excellent customer services in advance of car hire. Answered my queries very quickly. And super pricing. "
" Slightly long queue time at Shannon airport at pick up time (18:00). And again a wait for the minibus to the car hire lot. But great service and a great car (upgraded due to a busy period). "
" excellent value and hassle free process. keep up the good work. "
" No problem. Excellent car and hassle free srvice. "
" I was unsure about the 'MUST HAVE FLIGHT INFO' section as I was not flying in but the airport was the closest location therefore would not include this section. Otherwise the people I dealt with were very good and responded very fast via email which I truly appreciated "
" I did not like the fact that I did not get to inspect the car prior to agreeing upon its condition as photos (taken at an unknown time) were simply emailed to me before I was given the keys. The person behind the desk was more rhyming off some information than trying to be helpful. "
" Refreshing to find a company that can push for best deals in the very erratic car rental business. "
" Generally a good company to deal with, but they seem to be hampered in their flexibility since Budget took over. "
" Excellent service...cheap and cheerful. "
" Hassle free on the day of hire and the return was effortless...really impressed. "
" Fast and clear, and cheap "
" I was waiting 40 minutes but after everything were easy even the return "
" I recommend you to everyone I meet. "
" Very happy with the car and desk service. Not so happy with the system in place for checking the car pre acceptance. I was shown photographs of it on the computer showing the marks already recognized by them and without seeing the car I was expected to accept it. As it happened I had no difficulty and no incident. The images were sent to my email address -as I do not have a smart phone I had to accept the car then check it later when I could access my email. Not a good feeling about that. otherwise very satisfied. "
" The price is good but we should be able to modify our reservation online whiwh I was'nt. Moreover the type of car we had was not really similar at the one we choose. But autoeurope website stay the best website to book quickly a car. "
" Too expensive when finally you recover the car. Too long to refun you the fuel deposit. "
" Great service and value for money. Highly recommended. "
" Excellent rates "
" Quick and smooth exchanges "
" I ended but having to pay an extra 50 when I picked up the car to bring the excess down to from 1350 to 0. This was because I was not able to pre-authorise 1350 on my credit card to cover the excess. This has never been the case with any car I've rented through Auto-Europe before. This is also after having paid Auto-Europe extra for refundable excess. "

" Best rental privider by far. "
" Really helpful and friendly staff "
" Why does renting with auto europe feel sooo right. "
" Extremely happy with the service provided - would definitley recommend to others. "
" Extremely friendly and efficient staff, which makes the whole process of hiring a car really easy and stress free. "
" All my dealing with the transaction was satisfactory "
" My sense is that the Rental companies give customers, who book through Auto Europe, the "less attractive" of the cars available. For example, Budget gave me a 2012 Car with 67000 km on the clock ! I managed with it but it was not one of their better options ! Most customers got new 2013 cars. Its a form of "penalty" for not booking through the parent Company (at a higher rate !) "
" The re-design of the web presence and the addition of a mobile app for all platforms makes it now more easier to book a car, even last minute on the go. "
" Never had an issue with them and I hope it will stay the same in the future. Great service at the desk and friendly staff at all times "
" awesome service , "
" This was a hassle free experiance. "
" Best ever car rental transaction. "
" Everything ok "
" Everything ok "

" An excellent car , we loved having sex in the back seat on Laken Strand in front of all those strangers. Thanks Avis. "
" Good value with all inclusive prices. I have just booked another car in Boston, USA. "
" The car was perfect. We really didn't have any problems with it and traveled quite a distance with it too "
" No hassle with the renting at all. "
" Excellent "
" Upon arrival in Dublin Airport on Tuesday 28 March, I had to wait for 5 hours before I received my car. A problem arose where I was informed that Avis wanted to block the cost of insurance on my credit card, which I expected, but what I didnt expect was Avis requested that they block book the price of the tank of the car as well. After this was rectified, I was presented with a 2009 Skoda passat with heavy mileage. I complained, they did nothing, then I rang the management who presented me with a KIA Sportage. I was delighted with this and the car proved to be excellent value for the time I was in Ireland as otherwise I would have been very dissatisfied, frustrated and unhappy. "
" Greate rates and great customer support. "
" Full Insurance should be included for same price as basic one. Also you should collect data on your customers and award those how did not make any damage or being loyal to company on regular bases. "
" Same as above, I think you missing big time as not beat competitions by including full insurance instead of basic one... "

" great value, good seleccion of cars and companies "
" great value and great car "
" when i go into your web site and go forward with the booking you site comes up as '''untrusted''' and i have to agree ''i know the risks''' to go forward "
" Ann who gave me my car was very pleasant to talk to and friendly... one thing though is she showed me 48e would be taken from my card but it ended up 165$ aprox...people should be told of the EXACT amount being taken or held or blocked in their credit card...but still Ann a very good face for Avis "
" Good service on arrival for process from Auto europe "
" Very friendly and helpful prople at the Avis . efficient provision of car as well as the return, "
" when I picked up the car I noticed that there were some extra dents and scratches on the car that were not highlighted on the paperwork. I immediately notified the Hertz person in charge with No Problems. "
" easy and great prices "
" the bus driver from the airport to the hertz pick up not really nice. The girl who gave me the car average, she left the counter for 5 minutes without saying she was going to get the car ready or what she was doing. "

" Auto Europe provides normal rentals at excellent prices. Avis car in Ireland rented from AutoEurope 8 euro per day, but if you went direct to Avis and asked the cost is 70 euro per day. "
" Avis car was in great condition "
" Tell Avis to do proper damage report sheets for their cars. "
" Damage report sheets in accurately filled out. "
" To explain the insurance clearly "
" First car the gear stick was broken second car Smelt like vomit and wet dog Third car was perfect just big inconvenience on me having to returne back to the office on 3 occasions Very very surprised at hertz as in my experience I would of classed them as premium car hire! Big let down. "

" excellent - I got a flat tyre on sunday and no one was open to sort it. Avis at Knock airport changed the car for me so that I could return to Cork. They were incredibly helpful and lovely to deal with. "
" Best price for cars in Europe "
" Only company that allows you to use Visa Debit, takes a 250 deposit and does not look to block off+1,000 on you card "

" Plesent welcome and easy assess to airport on return, good experience "

" The car I got had no Tax Disc I had to take it back and get another one, I was afraid I would stopped by the police I would freeze up and there is a fine on the spot of 80 and 2 points on your licence for not having a disc displayed, I checed with Avis and she said the car wa taked but that would be no good If I was stopped... "
" I travel to Dublin, Ireland, a few times a year. For the last two years I have used Auto Europe for my car rental and I have been very satisfied with the value for money and service provided. "
" All the staff that I dealt with in Enterprise @ Dublin Airport were very friendly and helpful. The Opel Insignia I had was new and in great condition. It was an enjoyable experience. "
" I'd like to always have the option to have the full insurance to have excess refound covering screen and tyres too "
" They require two proff of address and passport which I think it's just bullshit as I rented cars in most europea countries with autoeurope and other companies and in other continents too and never had to bring all that papaer work. "
" the staff was very helpful nice car "
" SEO needs to be better. Include the words "car hire" in the response email to make it easy to find. "car reservation" car booking etc etc. Your confirmation emails are ungooglable in gmail. "
