Holiday

We got a free upgrade but on return the staff where hard to find and very disagreeable

Had to go for a larger car, which I thought we might, but had HORRENDOUS experience with GOLDCAR!!! My c/card (the same one used to make booking) was rejected at checking, and on checking with my card provider, was told this rejection was instigated by the rental company itself (bizarre!) and at the moment am still trying to have a satisfactory explanation for this from them! Because of this nonsense contrived, it would seem, by GOLDCAR itself, this meant I had to totally rebook with them, costing me a supplementary 300euros almost, ENTIRELY due, it would appear, to GOLDCAR!!!!! Still ongoing, but not expecting too much from them with their attitude at the moment! Disappointed doesn’t seem strong enough!

Would be grateful for any assistance from Easyrentcars on this matter as it was with yourselves the original booking was made.

this is what I've posted on social media - Car hire visitors to the Costa Del Sol buyer beware!

My experience with GOLDCAR was very positive. Car was great, very clean and in excellent condition. Perfect for a couple.

Fantastic booking platform! Excellent value for money. I will surely use again :) Highly recommended.

I have used goldcar once before and this was in January 2019 when I booked with Ryanair. The staff at the desk in Alicante were a bit rude and insisted that I pay another airport service charge although I had already paid this when I booked the car hire through Ryan air car hire. I paid the airport charge as they insisted that I had to before I could have the car and told me that it was nothing to do with them that I had already paid it. They tried to do exactly the same this time but I had a copy of your booking firm and it said what was included and clearly stated was airport charge. He wasn’t happy when I showed him the form and said they didn’t normally deal with your company but he then I think accepted it. I will only find this out when I contact my credit card company. The car was a Fiat panda and had lots of damage on it, too much really for me to record at the time so I left the car where it was and took lots of photos. Whilst I was completing the paperwork there were 2 other customers having heated arguments with the staff about the service they had received as well so my complaint is obviously not the only one. When I returned the car they tried to say that I had caused damage to the door mirror - this damage was obviously very old and had definitely not been caused by me. Fortunately I had a photo of this on my phone and he accepted this. I will not be using goldcar again as the 2 experiences I have had with them have both been bad.

Everything was very good and I will use the company again. I travel to Spain quite a lot - my next trip will be 17th may so I need a company I can trust to rent a car from.
