Highly satisfied, no forced insurance upselling. A deposit of 200 euros was taken, and it was refunded immediately after the car was returned, with no extra charges.

Was a little confused by the email saying I needed an IDP - which I didn’t. Other than that I was extremely pleased with the car and service.

Budget at Tenerife South is by far the best hire company with a spacious site, lots of booking staff and almost new- if not new cars on offer!- I now make a bee line to them

The waiting time was a bit long, but the staff had a great attitude and did not push unnecessary sales.

As few other people I was scammed for "taxes" on the spot even though I paid the whole sum of the rent beforehand. Thus a one-star experience, not recommended.

The service attitude was quite good. Apart from the car being relatively old, everything was fine overall.

Yeah all worked as it should. A very well used Opel Crossland is not an Audi A2 but it worked for me. Car had plenty of dings in it, but this is normal in Tenerife. Car was fine in all respects, other than a dragging brake. Return process simple and a very helpful guy looked after me. Deposit was a bit steep, but it was only pre-authorised and was removed soon after return.

The pick up process was most difficult. It was a ticket system but was not communicated so we stood in a crowd for 15 min before we realised. Then there was only 2 staff and it was very slow. We sat on the floor waiting. Then they didn’t take AMEX, which is ridiculous as it is a worldwide accepted card.

Can be long queues and big waits, even if you have checked in online, they don't seem to have a 'just collect your keys' option unlike a few others

Didn’t meet with any agent / rep in the terminal at pick up as instructed, we asked locals for directions to the Gobycar shuttle and luckily they were able to help us and tell us where to go. Shuttle bus parked at bay E3 for information. Please update for other users as to the instructions as there may have been other renters not so proactive and waiting around in terminal for agent. Other than that it was a straight forward process and got an upgrade to vehicle for free. Person on desk was friendly and helpful

A little bit curt when completing pick-up process but this may have been just language differences. Excellent when I left my luggage in their office.

Long wait at the Cicar desk, although each position was attended. Vehicle (Fiat 500) was inadequate for the hills in Tenerife. (This was my fault, not Cicar's)

I had an email confirming that the the car was off hired and returned with no new damage on the off hire due day (10 11 22) The company has tried to charge my card €720.05 yesterday (10 19 22) with no explanation. Fortunately I use a travel debit card with not much credit and so was declined! I would like an explanation from the hire company please.

The car exceed my expectation. The booking process at the counter was easy. Just need clear sign where to get the pick up area at the airport because the representative waited at 2nd basement. It took a while to ask around.

Terrible, people waiting 2-3 hours to collect there hire car. Unhelpful staff and no organisation at the collection location. Worst hire experience ever!

Id like to have my refund because I didn’t take the car, The receptionist came up with lots of fees and also he ask me for £1.000 for deposit, but online the info was totally different ($300 to $500). I paid for extra insurance and he was asking again for more payments!

Car was fine. Very disappointed about the extra charge.

Reviewed: May 4, 2019

There were a lot of hidden costs that we were not informed about upfront, including a mandatory €1000 deposit if we didn't pay out for the extra insurance cover, and a €102 fuel deposit (which is more fuel than will even fit in a Fiat 500). Staff also didn't tell us about these costs in one go, even when directly asked 'what is the total we will have to pay'. This created a really negative experience for us and impacted on a lot of our holiday plans. It seemed like this was intentional, a way of forcing people into paying money without giving them the full information in advance, and it felt like we were being scammed. It was also contrary to the information that we received from our broker, Easyrentcars.com, which advised that we could be charged a maximum deposit of up to the equivalent of $500, meaning that we were missold this car hire deal. In future I will avoid Interrent and recommend that others do also.

Fairly long wait for pick up. Was told when booking online I had paid in full and would pay nothing at pick up. When picking the car up I was required to pay an additional 23€ tax and an 800€ deposit.
