Hidden fees of over £145 on a £40 car rental (350%)!! The car was not cleaned, with multiple stains inside the vehicle, and even had chocolate smeared all over the passenger seat. Had to spend the first 15 minutes cleaning in their parking lot to just make it usable…

I was unable to contact the rental company on my arrival to Heathrow. All phone numbers provided to me were not answered. I had to cancel reservation and book a new rental at the airport. Worst car rental experience ever

They never answered the 15+ calls we made for the shuttle to come get us from the airport. We had to cancel it, then pay money for an Uber and couldn’t rent a car the whole time we were there. It was a joke.
