Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).

When we picked up the

When we picked up the car there was only one person behind the desk. Having waited 45 minutes for our ticket to come up the attendant then dealt with a premium customer who had only been waiting 15 minutes. We finally got our car having waited over an hour. The attendant was very helpful but was on his own and couldn't deal with the amount of customers. The delay in picking up the car had a knock on effect and caused issues when checking in to our accommodation. Lovely car and appreciated the updates via email re the weather and driving conditions. Easy to drop off the car as there were three members of staff behind the desk.

No issues, straightforward web site. One comment is I would like to see a summary of the reservation on each web page through the booking process, it is very easy to mis-type a date or pick-up time. Having a summary displayed affords more confidence to those booking vehicles.

The carrentals site was one

The carrentals site was one of the best I have found to navigate around and choose the right package for our needs. I also telephoned the office for clarification on some points, and found them very helpful indeed. I particularly liked the "worry free" and "no excess" options, which sift through all the complicated excess t&c's, and show you just what you need to know. My only point, as mentioned above, is that this should then not be questioned when you collect the car, leaving you unsure as to the level of cover you require. I would definately use carrentals again in the future.

You guys have always been

You guys have always been pretty good. I have booked numerous cars through the years here. The relationship you have with hertz needs improving, as does the communication. There also needs to be an easier way to offer customers refunds/solutions to situations like what has happened above as an experience like that rules out the ease of using a site such as this

Only recommendation would be to

Only recommendation would be to receive a receipt at drop off. For example, we had a GPS, and someone took it after we returned the car but we never received a receipt saying we turned it back in.
