All good except excessive wait when collecting car. All agents busy. Should have more staff when you know several cars being collected around same time
Loved it! No queuing at rental car offices. No lengthy suitcase dragging as I dropped the vehicle off at Departures drop-off entrance!

When I arrived to pick up my car I had to pay another £178 + £200 deposit which I still have not received back
Hi Peter L,
Thank you for your review.
We are truly sorry to hear that you are still waiting for the return of your deposit.
I can confirm that security deposits are automatically released by Green Motion on the last day of your rental after it has been established that the rental vehicle has been returned in the same condition as it was provided, and there are no further outstanding charges.
Please visit https://greenmotion.com/terms and select the country you rented from to see the deposit information which will advise the general timeframe that you can expect for the release of the deposit.
Whilst in most cases this is available again within 10 working days, unfortunately, this can take up to 30 days depending on the bank that you use. We suggest that you contact your bank as they may be able to speed this process up for you.
Green Motion's policy is to use pre-authorised transactions for our security deposits, which ring-fence the amount within your account, not charge it. This pre-authorised transaction will allow us to make charges if necessary at the end of the rental, but unless this occurs no money will leave your account. Due to the nature of this transaction, the release of these funds may not show on your bank statement as a separate transaction. If you believe that you have been charged your security deposit, please contact your bank and ask them to provide proof of the transaction as a charge on the first day of your rental so that we can look further into this for you.
If this amount is still not available in your account after 30 days from the last day of your rental, please contact us at [email protected].
Thank you for your assistance and understanding.
Kind regards,
Green Motion International Customer Services.

Desde que la persona que te recoge en el aeropuerto, te sientes bienvenido a Florida, en el escritorio, todos son caballerosos y atentos. Te explican a detalle los cargos y los procedimientos.

Green motion was OK, but we booked through carjet.com and paid additional insurance which green motion said they did not recognize and had to pay again
Hi Gary,
Thank you for your review.
We are truly sorry for any confusion regarding this. When you purchase cover through your booking agent, this is with them and not Green Motion. For clarity, we have created this article that explains the differences - https://greenmotion.com/advice/differences-between-third-party-excess-reimbursement-policies-and-car-rental-companys-insurance-packages.
We hope that this helps answer any questions that you had on this.
Kind regards,
