Avoid this dishonest business – If there was a zero star rating I would post it. [Name Removed] is unprofessional. He cancelled my $5000 car hire 24 hours ahead of pick up. Promised a full refund. 8 weeks later, still owes me $1000. 1. I checked the car registration, was cancelled after my actual booking, although claimed it was in an accident and couldn't be fixed in time. 2.… Read more

His company fronts as a construction company with an ASIC notice of upcoming deregistration 3. When I called the number on the invoice a guy answered and told me the company was sold to him (construction company), and as I posed as a new customer for a car hire, he quickly changed to "Oh, I have cars, what do you want?" 4. Text and called [Name Removed] daily for my refund, came in dribs and drabs. Excuses ranged from a car crash to the girls in the office have left for the day, I am going to the office this afternoon. All total [Content Removed] 5. I have now proceeded with legal action after he told me I should just be happy with what I got back. 6. AVOID AVOID AVOID. Dodgy, dishonest, and it seems habitual. I shudder to think of all the cash he has collected without delivering a service and not refu di g by the comments.

Ps. I hope you read this [Name Removed].

See his DM reply in the images.

Absolute rubbish, fraudulent – Absolute rubbish. Collect car covered in bird poo half tank of fuel vapes charges annd paperwork left in vehicle by previous person and not the car listed on rental agreement. Over charged and 3 weeks later still no return of bond. No one available to collect upon drop off had to leave key in wheel in CBD. DO NOT BOOK . They take bank transfer not credit card as deposit and do not return it. Now threaten with consumer affairs no communication Show details

Avoid this company – I purchased a voucher for my husband to rent a Mustang for a weekend. Got charged twice but managed to get a refund after a lot of hassle. When we went to use the voucher it was really had to get in touch with ‘John’ who continually put my husband off, tell him the car wasn’t available or just not respond at all. When we finally booked the… Read more

weekend and used our voucher, he asked for a $1000 bond which we have not had refunded. Based no the reviews below I now wish I hadn’t started down this path. I am sure the ‘girls in the office’ that he refers to don’t exist and this guy is a complete scammer. Avoid avoid avoid

do not approach this business – there is a lot of bluster from John MacDonald - he will take your money very swiftly he gave me a verbal assurance that in the case of COVID cancelling my trip to Melbourne I would get my money back, my trip was cancelled and he suddenly became very difficult to contact his invoice says I'll get 50% back if I cancel more than 7 days ahead of the… Read more

Buyer beware – I have been trying for 3 + weeks from car drop off to get the deposit back from a car rental back in December. [Name Removed] has been back and forth on emailing promising to refund it but is yet to actually process the refund. The car was great to drive and [Name Removed] offered a good deal however in hindsight not worth the hassle in the lead… Read more

up and the time spent on the follow up on the deposit.

The booking process also involved a lot of back and forward and the night before pick up we were told we needed to make a bank transfer for the deposit. We live overseas so agreed to a credit card hold for the deposit.

The promise from today is it will be processed on Friday. Let's see if that actually happens.

I don't like to leave bad reviews for small businesses however in this case it is necessary.

Hopefully I can edit this review on Friday to confirm receipt of the deposit.

TOTAL SCAM - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY – I hired an Aston Martin recently. We actually got the car for the day, but despite setting a time they were late on delivery. MOST IMPORTANTLY 'John' has so far failed to return my $5,000 bond from 25 November. He keeps saying he will but as soon as I got cross about it, that was it - refuses to pick up the phone now. Now seeking legal advice. Look out folks. Show details

TOTAL SCAM -Just takes your money – DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY - TOTAL FAKE I have just lodged a complaint with NSW Fair Trading to get my money back. Car booked for 2pm 23/9/22 for sons formal and owner said he sent workers home at 12:30pm so we couldn't have the car. Told us he would give a full refund of $975 and a $200 credit. We are still waiting. When you speak to owner… Read more

on the phone he says he will call back in 25 minutes and never does. Says he is on his way to the office to make the payment and never does.

Ignores emails except when I told him I would report him to Fair Trading - then he says he will refund me - STILL WAITING for the refund.

If you have had money taken by this guy report him to Fair Trading ASAP.

This Company is a SCAM – Hired and payed in advance for the rental of a Porche in Sydney, when the date arrived the Sydney office was closed, after calling Melbourne "[Name Removed]" told me that he let the staff go home at 12:30pm even though my contract stated that pick up was 2pm. I believe there was never such car available. After 3 weeks of chasing the refund and… Read more

broken promises, I had no choice but to report this company to NSW Fair Trading. I have also read on this site that the same owner owned LUX Rentals which also has similar reviews and finally someone sent them bankruped. Please save your hard earned savings and DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY.

Hi John, that sounds like a threat, all I want is my $975.00 returned as you did not provide that vehicle that was fully paid for in advance.

COMPLETE SCAM! – This company needs to be shut down and person held accountable. This place may seem legitimate but it’s all a scam. You will not get the vehicle and all the positive reviews are done by selected people. For the sake of your time and money I would recommend avoiding this company both in Sydney and Melbourne. Show details

SCAM- fake company – DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Did not have our wedding car available for collection and have not refunded our money. They waited until someone was on site to collect the car to let them know it was ‘unavailable’. We then ended up not have a car for our wedding. We have been chasing them for 6 months now and they will not refund our payment. Every… Read more

time we call ‘Steven’ pretends to be multiple people and gives ridiculous reasons as to why he can’t answer questions about their cars and our payment. They do not have the cars that they have advertised. This is a complete scam.

Fraudulent – From research I've done, run by a crim previously convicted for companies like Melbourne Luxury Car Hire and Lux rentals, and somehow still getting away with it. Have lost my deposit at this stage AND never got the car, incredibly rude and obfuscating when approached since.
