company when visiting Tasmania and then again in Perth. Much more economical than the major firms and the pick up and drop off at the airport saves navigating complex traffic situations. Looked after very well in Perth by David (driver), Tima and Natalie. Would use again without hesitation.

Be extremely careful at the counter. My Auto Europe voucher required a $500 refundable deposit, but Bargain used this figure to trick me. The agent… Read more

requested $500, leading me to believe it was the hold; instead, they processed it as a non-refundable "Platinum Insurance" fee. They effectively "double-sold" me insurance I already had, disguising a fee as a deposit. Check your contract: if they charge $500 but write "$1.00" in the deposit box, you’ve been had.

Additionally, they have predatory toll policies. Unlike mainstream agencies that cap daily fees, Bargain charges a $5.00 admin fee PER TOLL GANTRY. I was charged $90 in fees alone for $125 of tolls.

Finally, the car was poor value: an old, worn vehicle with over 100,000km and doors that didn't align properly from a previous accident. They charge premium prices for end-of-life vehicles and use fine-print deception to inflate costs. Avoid them and use a reputable global agency.

I've changed my mind after being coerced (offered a reward?) into giving a good rating during receipt of hire car. The next day, they called to say… Read more

they needed their hire car back because RAA was refuting my claim again. I am in the right, confirmed again by my insurance, NRMA, who are, as we speak, organising a hire car for me. The crash repairer organised the car through 'I'm in the right' on my behalf without the option to go directly through my NRMA. Would have saved me lots of angst and worry. Do better, 'I'm in the right' if you expect good ratings. Don't give our hire cars willy-nilly if you are deeming yourselves a reputable company. I do not recommend this company.

Just over a month ago I was involved in a car accident. Next day repair company quote and booking made for 5 weeks later. By the time I got home from… Read more

repairer, Compass had rung to make arrangements for a hire car during repair time! I made it quite clear to two reps that a Subaru Forester sized vehicle would be needed due to height, joints and age considerations. Pointed out that the mid sized SUV's are not suitable for me. Assured that the Debra group would be advised accordingly and 'get onto it'. Took car to crash repairer yesterday and couldn't fit in the car Compass had provided for me. Mid size SUV! I kept my vehicle for the day and took it in this morning and now have an Outlander. Big enough for sure. So repairs are delayed by a day. The company had a month to make sure that I could be accomodated, yet sent me the type of vehicle that I advised would be of no use to me. What didn't the reps understand? The repairers were sorry for the inconvenience caused but what else could they say. I believe they and I have been let down. Ray

9pm and that was the last "shuttle" bus they had. Why as for your flight details if you are not going to really care if the flight is late (and not that long after you left). Might as well book another service as why would you want to take the risk that they will leave you there. Con-X-Ion, do you wonder why the numbers of people booking your service is reducing. Out of my group I was not the only one that had issues. Others had issues such as not being able to contact the service and service not having the correct date of pickup.

booked with someone else until 5:45. We had to call the customer service who offered another trailer 20 minutes drive each way out. By the time we got the other trailer from the other location and had to bring it back before they close, we didnt have enough time to move what we needed. Absolutely awful experience. Waste of time and money.

chance and made a booking. The communication from the booking all the way through was outstanding, we could relax knowing everything was taken care of. Tina was at the airport when we arrived, and chatted with us all the way to the depot. The car was clean and well maintained and perfect for our needs. The prices are great and as they state, we weren't charged any "extras" what we were quoted is exactly what we paid (unlike other car hire). We were picked up in the Gold Coast and dropped of in Brisbane after hours without issues. The Service is so far above the big car hire companies I wouldn't recommend anyone else for a trip to the Gold Coast. If I could rate 10 stars I would! A big thank you for a seamless hire!

An absolute scam, they'll take your funds without your knowledge or consent! – I rented a vehicle through Turo 7/8/24. The pickup and return went well, and as far as I knew, that was the end of it. Today, 12/2/25 I received the… Read more

following email:

"I hope you enjoyed your recent trip with Adrian on reservation 35103658. I'm following up about an issue that's come up. During your reservation, you incurred a parking fine on 7/Aug/2024 evident with the fine notice uploaded by your host in trip photos. As the offence carries a financial penalty we've charged your card on file $151.82 (including a 3% processing fee)."

This was over 6 months ago, and at no stage whatsoever was I informed about any alleged fine. I literally have no idea of when, where, how much the fine was, what the fine was for (there are many different types of 'parking fines'), who issued this fine or even an infringement number. The host and Turo had all my details, my full name, phone number, address, and licence number, and they would've had the option to nominate me as the driver. I have been provided with no information, evidence or the opportunity to even contest the fine in court (if it really exists). I've reported this with my bank, and will also be contacting Consumer Affairs and the ACCC.

everything about the pickup and dropoff was easy to understand, especially out of hours. The customer service we received was pretty great. Our van had character that's for sure, but we loved him, and did a great job at taking us from Sydney all the way to Brisbane.

Do note that you need to provide your own bedding as we missed that and had to make a run to a store on the first day.

helpful. It was really lovely to deal with the people I dealt with and I have forgotten their names. They were patient, happy to answer all of my enquiries, pleased in helping me find the vehicle that would be most suitable and comfortable for where I would be travelling to (I hired 2 different vehicles within my four week stay in England) I could not of asked for better service with hiring two separate vehicles for when I needed them. The cars were extremely comfortable and clean. I told them that I will definitely be back BIRKENHEAD :)
