Hertz Ireland レビュー 

Just dropped back rental to Wexford, Excellent service as always, staff always on hand to help, explain all and then dropped me into town to pick up my car..and was good rate..Thanks Jason

I had a pre-paid rental voucher (via Rentalcars) which included Full Protection Insurance (at significant extra cost). Imagine my disbelief when I was subsequently charged for additional insurances and protections that were NOT explained or advised to me at the time of collection. I have rented hundreds of cars over the years and I am not naive or negligent with rental bookings. In this case, I truly believe I was conned by the Hertz rep and I will do all in my power to spread the word with friends and colleagues to avoid such dishonest practise. Hertz is a global name for car rental and they should be ashamed that such fraudulent techniques are allowed. I can see from other recent comments that lots of customers have experienced similar. Do something about it Hertz!

Reserved a 7 passenger car at Hertz Dublin airport and was quoted $1500 for a week. Arrived at Hertz Dublin airport location and was told they didn’t have the car on the lot. They told us we needed a new reservation and only had one 5 seater car that would accommodate us. They completely disregarded our reservation and charged us $5000. I complained several times to Hertz in the US and Dublin and requested an adjustment. They claim they had 7 passenger cars on the lot and it was our decision to make a new reservation. Very shady operation!!!!!! I have rented cars for more than 30 years in my business and never experienced this issue. They deserve 0 stars and to be investigated for taking advantage of customers.

I would give 0 stars if I could. Terrible service - check your credit card statements when you get home. I have relatives in Ireland so frequently fly to Shannon and hire a car. Every time I’m charged additional fees with no explanation, despite returning filled with petrol and on time. Hertz then take weeks to come back with to explain. Completely unethical.

No feedback.
Charge of money for extra insurance for nothing.
No late night service for delayed airplane.
So never never Hertz in Ireland again

Long lines. Only two people working at the counter, servicing hertz, thrifty and one more. Later one more joined. 18 folks in line! Each customer is taking 10-15 mins each. Others are waiting over 30 mins for keys to their cars (?)
Absolute chaos. If id known, I would have taken the train.

I rented a car for 8 days prepaid 260 on 15 September online, when I arrived at the desk I was asked for another 400, 60€ for some glass,tire coverage then 28 per day also 20€ extra as they do not accept debit cards lol.
I returned the car on Saturday the 22nd and got charged an extra 259€ and 60€ at 00:00 midnight! Without prior notice or call but they would expect you to call and announce if you’re arriving a bit later or so. Literally bs never going to rent from Thrifty,hertz

Pickup was easy and quick, but the drop off was frustrating. The South Lott Rd Hertz in Dublin closes at 5:00 pm, but no one answered the phone. Despite calling every 10 minutes from 4:15 pm on to get information, they never answered. The website had instructions for after hours drop off, and since we had a reservation for another day (just wanted to not deal with driving and parking in the city), we weren’t in a rush. Upon arriving, a locked gate blocked the entrance, forcing us to return to the hotel and pay to park overnight. The next morning when we did drop off the car, staff was friendly enough but threw up their hands saying there was nothing they could do and that we were mistaken about after hours drop off. This created a very frustrating experience of about two extra hours driving around Dublin Center City figuring out what to do with our car that could have easily been avoided.

DISGRACEFUL.
I have been reaching out to the customer service team for over a month, with absolutely no conclusion. After 3 weeks of chasing and no response, a member of the team reviewed the case and came back with a reply, I’ve emailed back twice and called multiple times with no reply to this. I’ve reached out to the head of customer services again with no response, sticking heads in the sand is no way to deal with a customer. Will never be using this service again.

When we arrived we were forced to take their 28 € per day insurance. More than doubling the total cost of the car. They refused to use my debit card for the insurance. This review is for both Hertz Ireland and Thrifty. As they both operate under Hertz. Won't ever use their services again and I will actively discourage any friends of family from using this Company. Ireland itself was lovely though.

We rented a car in Dublin airport. The next day it rained a lot and when we had parked and wanted to leave it gave warnings that a lot of the electronically regulated functions didn’t work anymore. We called the agency and they said we didn’t need to worry. Within three days after, the gear broke down as we were approaching a roundabout. We had to be towed to an Hertz agency in Belfast and they told us that we had to sign for causing it to break. We refused. It is outrageous that you are send on the road with a car that is breaking down already from the beginning. We were not to blame as we always drive geared cars. Until now we haven’t heard anything yet of how this issue is solved and they kept the bail. We left the 27th of July. It happened on the 17th of July, almost two month ago! Be warned! Don’t use Hertz as they are not trustworthy and make use of you as a customer to do repair work on their cars. We will never, ever use Hertz again!

Dublin airport hertz counter staff. Rude staff who couldn’t care less about a customer. The manger was as bad. The level of, couldn't care less was so high I was shocked. Well trained staff can make a customer feel better even if there issue isn’t solved. I would question if these 2 staff had any customer care training. The 1 star was for another member of staff in the carpark who came over and asked If we wanted any help with the car with an honest smile on his friendly face. The other 2 could learn a lesson.

Booked a car hire through Ryan Air. Paid for the insurance. Got to Dulin airport Hertz office. Waited an hour in a line out the door. When finally get to an advisor I am told he doesn't want to see my insurance information but that I should give my credit card over to pay the deposit which could be €2700 but as I have insurance it won't be that much. I am then charged €160.16 superciver and €80 glass and tyre cover without any explanation or agreement by me. Feel totally bamboozled and embarrassed. Total cost was twice what I thought it would be. Never going through Hertz/Dollar again.

I purchased my car in Hertz, Ennis Road, Limerick. I found the sales team very helpful and courteous. I was very satisfied with the experience.

They don't handle your rental at airport in Dublin then wait for 2 shuttles then wait over 1 hour and 15 . Very angry people. Terrible service. Euro car next door has no line. Why overbooked to this extent? Ridiculous

Hertz at Dublin Airport is victimizing its customers, taking advantage of time limiting circumstance to rip people off for trivial scratches. $1400 for a scratch?
Seriously! Did you take the car out of service because of the damage? Did you repair the damage? Did you lower your rates for renting a damaged vehicle? Did you lose revenue because of the damage? In my opinion you are pathetic. According to your reasoning I could take a car key and in about five minutes I could do enough damage to exceed the value of the vehicle. If you want good reviews, treat people honestly. Since my experience with Hertz I have rented from other car rental companies and have discussed their policies and they say that normal wear and tear is just that part of doing business. Stop believing your own rhetoric and treat people fairly. But, no worries, I have faith in the free market and the market will decide.

I rented a car online in May 2023 for a USA trip in early June 2023. When booking I was requested to bring a Drivers Licence and Passport. Which I did, however on arrival I was informed i needed an international licence. Even though my full drivers licence was in English. I called Hertz customer care who told me this was incorrect and I did not require a international licence. I went back to desk but they were adamant I required an international licence and showed me an internal email that all staff received stating International Drivers Licence was required.. I reviewed my booking and there is NO mention of international drivers licence requirement. I had to be refunded, however 2 months later I have not been refunded, I'm down over €700 and no end in site. I ended up renting off Enterprise (Rosen Centre), all I required was a drivers licence and passport and credit card. They were extremely helpful and I got free upgrade.

I'm afraid I received no refund to card used to pay for car.

If you could email me directly or call me as you have my details please. I've spoken to customers service on number of occasions. It's not refunded. I used a Revolut card, and was told that this was an issue and would delay refund. The original payment made on 28th of May has never been refunded.

I have since been refunded thank you hertz. Experience still very very negative on a whole.

SuperCover advertised as "NO EXCESS, NO WORRIES". Paid a significant sum for it. Turned up to pick up car. Was told SuperCover does not mean no excess for this vehicle. Was explained to me that there was a £500 excess. Turns out this was £500 per incident. Have since emailed customer service regarding this. Have not received a reply in 8 days.

Was booked on the Hertz.ie website. Nice way to pass the buck and avoid dealing with the issue though!

STAFF ARE COMMISSION CONMEN AND HUSTLERS. AVOID! AVOID!

I've been hiring cars from Dublin airport for the last 30 years. The early noughties were the wild west years where every company would try to con you for insurance or damages. In recent years it seemed this was over however the Hertz/ Thrifty branch have a strong taste for nostalgia.

The front desk staff here are hustlers and conmen, plain and simple. They are on commission for the insurance Hertz/ Thrifty sells on cars and will do everything to not accept your credit card so they can get their commission. Below I outline how they tried to con me and what you can do if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Special mention goes to "Stefan", in case that's not his real name he's the short, squat little man with the very loud dublin accent and a demeanour that threatens to break into outright aggression. If he's there you'll definitely hear him before you see him. Also look out for "Lelisha" who seems to be in on the con as well.

If you look through the other reviews you will see numerous other customers have had the same problem at this branch, all of a sudden credit cards which were used to insure the car (and are likely used all of the time) somehow don't work at the office. Well lo and behold the same thing happened to me. But that's OK! Because instead you can purchase Hertz's extortionate car insurance that is upwards of £30 a day there and then (despite insurance already being covered on your credit card that they are pretending doesn't function). This can easily lead to your total car hire fee doubling if not tripling!

So how does this work?

We had already paid for our car hire and went to the hub to collect the keys. When it came to putting our credit card into the credit card reader to confirm the insurance it kept getting declined, even after having our credit card provider stay on the line and confirming that there were no problems at all with the card.

Our provider said that the Hertz office were trying to put it through on chip and signature and they should be able to do so on chip and pin or just signature, "Stefan" claimed this was impossible. He insisted it could only be put through on chip and signature which was being declined. In reality he was doing this on purpose to push you towards paying for Hertz's own insurance.

After spending two hours trying to outline how the card was working and the provider being on the phone to verify this, we finally relented and said we would take the insurance so we could start our holiday.

However...... when it came to be time to pay for Hertz's insurance we also had to use our credit card as it was the only card we had. CAN YOU BELEIVE IT, our credit card all of a sudden wasn't declined by their card reader and they asked us to put a pin in. Upon pointing this out they panicked and got their manager and in the space of a minute, probably in order to save face, the manager was able to put the credit card through on signature.

If this happens to you:

1.) Refuse to deal with "Stefan", he knows all the tricks so demand to be served by someone else and ask for the manager.

2.) Call your credit card company to confirm that your card is working just fine

3.) If you relent and take their insurance, Either use the same or another credit card on the chip and pin and when it comes time to enter your pin, point this out to them that your credit card is suddenly working.

4.) If you do have to accept their insurance, you should be able to make a claim for it with your credit card company as the fault is clearly with their card readers. Check with your provider for what evidence is needed.

Edit: You give this same reply to everyone. I've provided the staff first names and the branch, what more do you need?

Great experience. Easy pick up and return
