RedSpot Car Rentals

The customer service is way below level once you have paid for their service. Highly inexperienced staff who focus only to get money out of you. They should block to this business

Do not use these people!
They hate it when you get cheap deal and then try charge for everything and blame you. Threaten you with dept collectors if you try fight them

Don't save a little money by going with this company. I hire car's regularly with larger organizations and have never experienced anything like I did with this company. The car smelt like smoke and there was pre-existing damage I noted on the vehicle inspection report at the time of collection and they still charged me large amounts after for fixing it. Completely unreasonable in every respect.

Hired a car for x2 days from Sydney airport for work, Nicole from the front desk was super lovely and accommodating, we got a free upgrade to a larger car which helped us tremendously, Thanks so much, highly recommended.

Treated poorly At the desk when I advised I had taken excess cover insurance through the booking agent.
On return of the vehicle I received a $0 invoice noting correct kms travelled and confirming that the car had been returned with a full tank - therefore inspected by a red spot employee - over an hour later they called and claimed I had put a long crack in the windscreen during my hire period. Neither myself or colleague noticed it during our one day hire (you would probably hear the impact that caused a 10 inch crack). Furthermore I would ha...

This was the first time using Redspot and the service that they provided was fantastic, I would especially like to say thank you to the staff at Cairns airport who were very accommodating and the best to deal with especially when I had to extend over a period.
There vehicles are brand new and very clean and tidy.

I returned a vehicle and they implied that I had damaged a windscreen. Lucky I showed a photo that clearly show marks but have not bothered to respond. They had rushed the turn around of the vehicle and did not clean and check the vehicle correctly from the previous customer. Instead they accused me and have been waiting while they have a $1100.00 dollar hold on my credit card. They did admit that they were under the pump, understaffed and pressured because of the COVID 19 situation. All these things did not help my situation which is poor mana...

After hiring a vehicle interstate I then was wrongly identified and nominated by Red Spot as the driver speeding 1 day after I dropped the car back. I've tried twice to have it fixed by redspot but I can't speak to the dept that handles the infringements. I won't be using redspot again if this is their level of service.

The process was simple and easy!
I hired a car back in January on the Gold Coast. The third party again acting on their behalf was kind and even offered an upgrade to me on day of pickup.

Very happy with RedSpot. I would use their services again.

I didn't expect anything premium, I just expected a seamless process which I got.

If you prefer a simple car rental service - then rent from RedSpot.

Thanks

My first dealings with this company, Top service from red spot Melbourne CBD location , Brenton the bloke that I delt with at the pickup point was extremely helpful and polite , redspot give this young bloke a pat on the back and redspot look after this bloke he is an asset

Customer service is ok. Not super fabulous but perfectly adequate.
The vehicle was different to what we had 'booked or similar' but was a really great car with only 16000 kms on the clock. It was a beautiful car to drive - holden equinox.
Picking up the car at the international terminal in Sydney and returning it there couldn't have been more simple and painless.
We love that there is zero excess so nothing for anyone to get angsty about on returning the car.
Have rented form these guys before with the same happy outcome. If redspot is available where we're going, we'll choose them above anyone else. Good job!

If you want to rent a car from Canberra Airport, never, ever use this Company (Redspot). They are unethical, opportunistic and will maximise any costs to their advantage. I am a very experienced renter and frequently use Hertz, Thrifty and others. I rent because I live overseas but have family in Canberra. We frequently travel there and visit friends and family in Sydney and beyond. Everything for these people was a problem from extending rental period to drop off location. I have never had a problem picking up from one location and dropping of...

Great service on arrival at Brisbane Domestic.
Nice new Hyandai Accent 2018.
Together we went over the small damages that were already present and told “not to worry”. The service agent was positively lovely.

Paid a cheap price for a full fuel tank on return. Was charged a reasonable fee (about $1.30 extra) for each of the tolls I passed through. Returned with empty tank, a lot of dust. No dramas. Easy drop off, within seconds all done, at Brisbane International. Invoice and closed rental agreement returned in about 10mins. Excellent service!

I was told I would be charged $4.40 per litre for fuel if I didn't return the vehicle full of fuel. Pricey but fair enough - at least they told me. I decided to go with that option anyway since I wasn't driving far and the nearest service station was well out of my way. I drove the vehicle 25 km while I had it and Redspot's invoice confirms that. The car was a Hyundi Accent automatic. These apparently get 6.6 L/100 km. So I used 1.65 L of fuel, which should have cost $7.26. But they charged me $23.67 for fuel, i.e. the cost for 5.38 L. Its not big dollars but its just a scam and I bet they do this all the time.

I rented a car from Redspot in July 2019. There were no incidents or damages during my rental. On return, their representative claimed there was damage to the windscreen. There were small (<2mm) punctate etchings in the glass, not clearly visible from the driver's seat. I asked them to send me photos from the driver's seat, an independent review and evidence that this was a 'roadworthiness' matter. They ignored all of this, but charged $1,100 to my card for a windscreen replacement. I've noticed that they do not comply with the 'Fair Wear and tear guide' of AFIA, of which they are members, hence my comment that they are unethical
