Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers appreciate the comprehensive selection of car rental companies and pricing options available. The booking process and user experience are generally considered smooth and easy, and the website is reported to be fast and efficient. People also find the prices to be reasonable, especially with the inclusion of full coverage options. However, some consumers have expressed concerns regarding clarity around the car pick-up and drop-off procedures, particularly when rental offices are closed. A few reviewers mentioned issues with currency conversions and unexpected charges. While the service is generally well-received, there is some variability in experiences, suggesting that service quality might not be consistent across all situations.

Canx my account - they're disgusting to deal with

Following on from my complaints about them taking an obscene amount of money as part of a refund (hidden well in their terms and conditions, a lawyer may have found it, I didnt), after dozens of emails, dozens of requests, using their forms to complain, NOTHING, absolutely NO response with no customer service whatsoever, perhaps where they are based its ok, but here it is not, please watch for the social media person whom, like every other time, will tell me how sorry they are and to register my complaint through their "customer service", they do that every time I complain!! Same call centre that has refused to respond and whom removed my ability to complain on their website, as I said, cancelled the account, would rather pay more than have anything to do with this mob. DO NOT USE THEM.

Good luck if you need to amend your booking

I booked a rental vehicle through Economy Booking and when I did I do not see that the Full Protection Insurance was already selected. After realizing this I tried amending my reservation to unselect the insurance but was informed by Economy Booking that they could not amend the booking. Terrible.
