Such a great experience and pleasure to deal with William Shih. He has made the process so easy. From initial contact to purchase of vehicle was 2 days which is exceptional customer service. I could not be happier. Nothing was a problem. I could not recommend William enough.
Belle was patient with my questions, deeply investigated my issues and provided helpful accurate advice with a pleasant disposition I would request her support if possible whenever I make a call reagrding my package
Anaheim’s understood what I needed first time and was extremely polite and professional. It was a pleasure speaking with her and I am really pleased that she was able to help.

Car has been awesome. Thanks Paul wilson for setting it up!
I recently used Smartleasing to organise my new Kia Sportage, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. The team at Smartleasing made what could have been a complicated process feel simple and stress-free. They were professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful at every step. All my questions were answered clearly, and… Read more
they kept me updated throughout the approval and delivery process.
What really impressed me was how smooth everything felt — no pressure, no confusion, just genuine support and efficient service. The paperwork was handled seamlessly, and the turnaround time was quicker than I expected.
I’m absolutely thrilled with my new Sportage and grateful for how easy Smartleasing made the whole journey. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to lease or finance a vehicle. Fantastic service and a great result!
Smart Leasing was a pleasure to deal with. Sarah was friendly, knowledgable and super responsive to any question, and there were many, I had along the way. When there was no communication from the car dealer for a while, Smart Leasing chased them up without having to be prompted. I'm very happy to have them as my Novated Leasing partner.
Smart Leasing Review – BYD Sealion I recently leased the BYD Sealion 6, and the experience has been smooth and efficient from start to finish. Opting for a novated lease through Smart Leasing has made the process straightforward, providing financial benefits such as pre-tax savings and bundled running costs. Nik was very informative and responsive… Read more
which was very reassuring.
The BYD Sealion is a beautiful well-priced, feature-packed electric SUV with impressive performance. It offers a practical driving range suitable for daily my commutes as well as long trips. Equipped with BYD’s latest driver assistance systems and smart infotainment. Smooth & responsive drive and sustainable
Leasing Benefits with Smart Leasing Tax Savings – Novated leasing helps reduce taxable income by bundling running costs like insurance, servicing, and charging. Convenience – All expenses are managed in a single payment, removing the hassle of separate bills. Flexible Terms – Tailored lease options to suit budget and lifestyle needs. Lower Running Costs – EVs generally have reduced servicing and charging costs compared to petrol vehicles.
Overall, the BYD Sealion is an excellent choice for those looking to transition into an EV while benefiting from the financial advantages of smart leasing. It combines affordability, technology, and sustainability in a stylish package.
Would highly recommend both the car and the leasing process to anyone.
Professional service – Fast and efficient service. Prompt replying to any concerns or queries.
Latest follow-ups
Staff are always attentive, however the overall experience with Smartleasing has been exhausting.
Follow-up · What could be improved - follow up calls, emails to clients, not having to explain yourself, over and over again. Communication between departments regarding clients enquiries and or issues. The above made it exhausting. I had to do most of the run around myself and follow up with different departments and people. The time and lack of communication.
My experience has been excellent from start to finish (well, almost finish - I'm picking up my new car this afternoon). All correspondence has been answered quickly and my account manager has been very helpful be it via email or on the phone. I have no complaints whatsoever.
Follow-up · Dealing with Smart has continued to be easy. One year in and registration was handled easily. I just had to upload the renewal notice to my account and everything has been done. The insurance is also very good. It is relatively expensive but worth it to not have to shop around. Some insurers will not insure newer model EVs so to have this locked in for the period of my lease takes some stress out of equation.
Very happy dealing with Smartleasing. From the first conversation with Jason I was eager to get things rolling. Extremely knowledgeable, easy to understand my options, and looked after everything for me. Wish I’d done this years ago.
Follow-up · So far so good. Easy to submit receipts and payments made quickly.
Positive reviews
Dealing with Mark from The Smart Team, has been an extremely easy experience. Mark has been highly contactable, clear with his communication, and most importantly, patient with his expertise in responding to all manner of questions and queries. At no time in the process did Mark place pressure on closing a deal and ensured at every stage, that I was well informed.

The ability to lease an E-bike by Salary Sacrifice through Smart Salary is a fantastic option. Josh from Customer Service is extremely helpful and a friendly voice on the end of the phone to finalise the paperwork. Thank you.
I have two cars with Smartsalary. The leases have been easy to manage and staff friendly. I recently called up to make some adjustments to one of the leases and spoke with Belle who was very friendly and make the process simple.
Negative reviews
Very stressful experience trying to transfer my noveted lease from previous salary packaging provider to Smart. Nearly 2 months into the process and I have given up and opted to just buy the car. Communication with Smart has been nearly non-existent unless i have called them. On numerous occasions they have changed the goalposts and requested… Read more
different documents, said they were all good when I actioned them (me being the middle man between the different salary packagers) and then weeks down the line- after me calling them in tears- saying they cant proceed until i get another (new/different) document. I almost regret leaving my last job, just because of this experience
On this occasion yes Belle was very good .. and informative .. helpful .. but as a service in general .. no .. I have had previous calls where is was misinformed .. and action not being taken which has disadvantaged myself ..
Weaponised incompetence. Terrible experience from start to finish: was sent quotes for the wrong car. Extras added into the quote (at extra $) without my approval. And they fumbled the paperwork at the end - I reckon I signed the lease agreement five times before I finally got the car.

1st time using Smart lease, got my Honda CRV more than a year now, I can say it was pretty easy. Shirley assisted me today on all my inquiries about running budget of my Smart Lease. Thank you.
Joshua Smith was sensational and very easy to deal with. Super prompt with responses but his level of technical knowledge was very high. I literally had my entire lease sorted in 3 days which is insane. Easy and engaged experience
Novated leasing is something very new to me, but Brayden made the whole process easier, especially as this was all completed prior to my overseas trip...which is today! From the initial phone call right to signing the document. Brayden was prompt in responses and answered questions very well. Brayden was friendly and made it a comfortable process. Now post my overseas travel, I get to pick up the car I had my eyes set on. Thank you so much!
Gnanasa was extremely amiable, helpful and effective is solving my queries and issues. It's a pleasure to talk to a human and get issues fixed especially when it comes to Pay matters, rather following confusing written instructions.

Joshua was very informative and helpful today. He was able to help guide me through the website. This was so much easier than using the self help bot which failed several times in answering my question. He clearly explained how I can change from regular weekly work to relief work and how this will affect my deductions. Thanks Josh, it was a pleasure speaking with you today.
Amin provided very detailed and helpful information in response to all my queries. He explained everything clearly and patiently, making sure I understood the details. He is a very polite, kind, and professional person. I truly appreciate his time, patience, and excellent support. Thank you, Amin, for your outstanding service!
I had a wonderful experience with Ajita from SmartSalary.

There was a very shortwaiting time. Bell provided very prompt and helpful service and answered all my questions and went above and beyond to provide me with extra help.
I was very fortunate to have Gayathri support me with my query today. She was patient, empathetic, clear and efficient throughout the call. She was able to resolve my issue with the best possible outcome. I was distressed when I received an email stating my payments were to significantly increase within a short period of time. I am very grateful to Gayathri for how she handled my call and for her support. Thank you
Called for support contributing to my superannuation. Ajita was very professional, walked me through the steps without making me feel rushed. Appreciate the support.
You are the best...thank you for going far and beyond to find the best deal for me. Your dedication and hard work is greatly appreciated. I will certaintly recommended you to my work mates.
