Green Motion Miami
November 23, 2025
Updated review

Green Motion Miami and the general line that is both FLL and Miami have been making rentals tough. I visit for work and doctors a lot. When they refused a rental in the past bc "I rented too many times" they didn't explain what that means and when I called to ask they said that there has to be 25 days between rentals which was odd. I would say that FLL has been amazing. They renting experience has been easy with them. I am still waiting on two refunded from Miami bc they say they don't do it in that location and that refunds are in "Europe." Which is kind of odd to tell a customer when you are denying them a rental. I am happy with all of my FLL experiences tho!

Post pandemic blues?
November 21, 2025

I have been using this hire car company for the last 10 year. Originally it was open 7 days a week and the staff were super helpful and friendly. Post pandemic however, I found the staff far less customer service focused and the company had turned into a 'low cost' operation.

Pick up tricky return easy
November 20, 2025

The process for picking up the car felt really long and as it was late this was frustrating. Nevertheless, the car was great and returning it was very straightforward. I'd use Green Motion again and as I'm now fully registered with them I hope the pick up will be easier.

Terrible customer experiences.
November 11, 2025

I phoned up to amend my booking only to be told I had to email reservations. I did so, explaining my new pick-up date, but received no reply. I called again — no answer — so I sent another email. Still no response. I later checked my spam folder and found all their replies there, only to discover they had cancelled my booking with no refund, even though I had clearly stated my new pick-up date and time.

When I finally got through, the woman I spoke with seemed more focused on proving me wrong about the refund than actually helping me resolve the situation or arrange a new car. There was zero motivation to help a returning customer — just attitude and excuses.

Very disappointing experience. This will be the last time I use this company.

Good experience, new vehicle, very slow pickup process

The only negative for me is that it takes a very very long time to get through the pickup process. I checked in online ahead of time and it still took well over 30 minutes to get through the paperwork when arriving at the vehicle.

Vehicle inspection in dark parking garage
August 15, 2025
Previous review

Pickup is in the airport parking garage. Last time I picked up a car there it was not a bright day and impossible to see any minor damage to the vehicle. As a result, I was charged $230 for a tiny dent on the hood that was really difficult to see in bright light and impossible to see in the parking garage.

I communicated half a dozen times via email about the pickup and inspection process but the only response I got was that the damage wasn't there before and that I was liable.

I have rented from this company many times and I intend to rent many more times, but the way this was handled was really disappointing to me.

I reserved a car for $380 and endedup with a cost of $1100. The scam is on the insurance deal, way more expensive then other companies. They also charge extra $25 more per day if you travel outside the original country. I do not recomend. If the extra cost is acceptable for you, then it can be good, car was clean, very economic due to the very small engine and very new as well.
