Dislike: Prior written detailed information about large insurance deductible deposit at the time of pickup. Lucky we had a card with a high limit. Better signage for location and vehicle return.
Renting with green motion most favourable. In car gps was invaluable driving in Scotland. Efficient

About GREEN MOTION:9.8/10
Like: Efficient pickup and drop off at airport. Avoided congestion at major car rental area of airport. Outstanding car made driving in the beautiful countryside enjoyable. Built in gps that was made available to us at pickup was invaluable. Dislike: Prior written detailed information about large insurance deductible deposit at the time of pickup.

Ordered a transit van but given a Toyota Proace - significantly smaller and almost not fit for the purpose I hired for.
Counter agent demanded I fill out a positive review of his service before giving me the van keys… only then to give me keys for a significantly smaller van than I ordered. Not impressed.
The rental company staff were very friendly. Despite the long delay caused by issues with the QEEQ platform, they were patient and continuously assisted us in resolving the matter.

About GREEN MOTION:9.3/10
I have to admit that the car was in absolutely perfect condition. The service was very kind and very specific about every detail in the booking. There was easy transfer from the terminal. What you MUST know however is that they are very detailed about the car condition. You can see videos and notes everywhere explaining how the process looks like and what are the possible charges. So probably if you happen to do even a small scratch the charges can go high. They offer their complimentary full coverage package but you must know it costs over GBP 40 per day, so if you book a small car it's going to double or triple the cost for you. So, they are VERY transparent in what they do and how they inspect the car, however if you choose not to take the insurance you might be liable to pay up to GBP 2500 for any damage. Overall, however, they are honest and transparent with the terms and conditions. I returned the car with no damage and the deposit was released within a few days.
About QEEQ:10.0/10
Smooth as usual. Easy comparison of the prices and suppliers available.
Total Failure.
Vehicle was collected in the pouring rain and we had to trust that there was some damage on the plastic lip under the bumper.
When the vehicle was returned there was apparently more damage to this plastic lip at the bottom of the bumper in the form of a 45mm scratch.
I cannot see how anyone could distinguish the difference between what was apparently there already, which was not visible, and what is claimed has happened since the vehicle was in my care.
I am certain that no damage occurred to the vehicle whilst it was in my care.
Out of interest I phoned Kia in Edinburgh to see if the £277 which Greencar are claiming for this addition damage to the already damaged front plastic bumper lip was reasonable. The price for this component is £22.59p
This is simply insurance fraud and I am currently taking legal advice for which i shall be claiming my costs unless the £200 of my excess returned to me immediately.
Very disappointing. Would never use them again. The staff are totally ignorant.
