It took a long time to get all the admin sorted as I was not aware I should have my NI number and DVLA code and clearing done. As I did not know my NI number I had to phone around and finally got this all sorted. It was good that I had taken my passport along as well, because a second ID was needed.

Terrible customer experience with Green Motion. They rent the cars out cheap but put every conceivable obstacle in your way to make you "have to" get their inflated insurance. First I was told I hadn't had my full licence long enough, then they changed their mind?! Then they told me that in order to get the car I had to provide a letter from my boss on company letter head as I was using a corporate card. This is not explained anywhere at all that I can see, and not possible in the time frame. When I went to leave I complained to the boss, who then allowed me to use my card (so their rules are bogus), upgraded the car, gave us a free extra driver, and unlimited mileage, BUT we had to get £400 excess cover at a cost of £120 pounds for 5 days. We already had insurance but were stuck and had to take it. So £33 car hire costed £153. But PUSH THEM ON THEIR BOGUS PRICES

Fine

Had to wait over an hour, complete waste of time. I would never recommend greenmotion. The cost more than doubled when accident insurance was applied. Cost was over £100 for 3 days. Although I hired for 3 days, I was only allowed 2 days mileage not 3 , so then had to pay another £10 for excess mileage . Overall I was an expensive disaster !!

Waited almost 3 hours for car collection. Very difficult customer service staff, and very strange document outlining vehicle damage and possible damage to underside of car bumper: all of which would be chargeable up to £1250

Very disappointing. Would never use them again. The staff are totally ignorant.
