Pickup vehicle at Heathrow
June 4, 2025

Picking up the Green Motion vehicle at the hotel remote from Heathrow terminal #2 using the hotel bus system which only runs every hour or so is not a great service. We used a taxi to get from Green Motion's remote location to Heathrow Terminal 4 at £30 as we had a second piece of luggage.

Great value for money

This company was way less expensive than others. I decided to take the risk after checking reviews and was very happy with my decision. The car was great and the pick-up/delivery as well.

Decent experience
June 4, 2025

Getting to the place from airport was a little confusing as someone was holding a sign for different companies and we went to wrong company. Once we got to green motion everything was as expected, very professional staff and our rental was in great condition. We got dropped back at the airport from one of their drivers. I would definitely recommend this company.

Hi Gilmarie,

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.

Desk service can be improved
June 3, 2025

I rented an economy car for 4 days; pretty new, decent value for money. When I returned the car, 5 staff members were behind the desk and no other customers were inside; I was asked to wait outside at the car, and it then took at least 10 mins before someone finally came out to inspect the car - why did it take so long? I was quizzed if I'd changed a tire until - back inside - a colleague could find in the system the odd tire had been reported before - why was this info not available together with other previously reported scratches/marks?

An Outstanding Car Rental Experience with Green Motion
From start to finish, my experience with Green Motion was exceptionally smooth and positive. Unlike some car rental companies, Green Motion truly prioritizes customer convenience and transparency.
Right from my arrival at the airport, the process was seamless. Meeting their representative was incredibly easy, and the transport to their office was quick and efficient. At the office, I was impressed with the vehicle options available, and even had a good experience exploring upgrade possibilities. Before checking out the car, I appreciated the clear instructions on its specific features, including details about fuel and how to engage reverse – something often overlooked by other companies.
Extending my contract was also a breeze, handled with professionalism and no hassle. What truly set Green Motion apart, however, was their incredible support during an unexpected incident. Through my own fault, the car battery died late one evening. I called them at 11:00 p.m., and to my relief, they promptly dispatched assistance and gave me a jump start. This level of customer service, especially at such a late hour, is truly commendable and speaks volumes about their commitment to their clients.
Returning the car was just as straightforward. There were no attempts to oversell me on daily insurance, and they were perfectly comfortable with me using my credit card's coverage. Furthermore, unlike some companies that try to find minor faults to charge for damages, Green Motion conducted the return inspection fairly and honestly.
Overall, I highly recommend Green Motion for anyone looking for a reliable, customer-focused, and stress-free car rental experience. They've earned my trust and future business.
