GreenMotion Reviews Summary

Green Motion has garnered a generally positive reputation for its reliable customer service and well-maintained vehicles, with many customers appreciating the friendly and helpful staff throughout the rental process. The convenience of shuttle services and easy check-in and check-out procedures further enhance the customer experience. However, concerns regarding aggressive upselling of additional services and unexpected charges have emerged, leading to dissatisfaction among some customers. Overall, while the company excels in customer interaction and vehicle quality, addressing transparency in pricing and service offerings could improve customer trust and satisfaction.

Everything was great except for the toll problem but that was no fault of Green Motion. The staff I dealt with were very helpful and the car you gave me was great.

Staff was really nice during my vacations and I didnt have any problems with the car. Weeks later I get a fine for not paying toll for the Merseyside Bridge, which I did. Even though the fine was cancelled the administration fee of 68£ wont be refunded. No answers to emails.

Hi Hannah,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

Unfortunately, when a Penalty Charge Notice is received, it is sent to the fleet company as they are the registered owner of the vehicle. They then charge Green Motion handling and 'Transfer of Liability' fees, which is why we must charge an admin fee in such circumstances. To clarify, this charge is not to provide you with a notification of the fine, as it is the responsibility of the issuing authority to do this. We would also like to take this opportunity to confirm that this charge is stated in our Terms & Conditions, which can be found at www.greenmotion.com/terms. We apologise for the inconvenience that this charge has caused you. Our team would be happy to look into this for you, if you would like to contact us using the form at www.greenmotion.com/contact.

Thank you for your assistance and understanding.

Kind regards,

Green Motion International Customer Services.

Greenmotion Bosnia
August 17, 2023

They picked us up from the airport, carried our suitcases, gave us a clean car, informed us about the necessary information, and told us to contact them if we had any problems.I didn't have any problems while delivering the car, they dropped us back to the airport. Deposit money returned within 2 weeks. I am very satisfied with the service. I recommend it to everyone.

Good general experience, good car from the category they promised. Picking up and dropping off the car did not take long, airport pickup worked well, too. I strongly suggest to take out the full insurance cover they offer: it will make your life easier whether you are having an accident or not.

Erfahrungen mit GreenMotion
August 17, 2023

Haben einen Kleinwagen über booking.com bei GreenMotion gebucht; der Schalter war leicht zu finden in der Ankunftshalle und das Personal war trotz später Stunde sehr höflich - es gibt dort sogar einen sehr gut deutschsprachigen Mitarbeiter, was wir beim zweiten Besuch der Firma erleben durften, als wir die Mietdauer verlängerten, was auch sehr unkompliziert war - so gesehen war der Service insgesamt sehr gut und auch der Parkplatz ist ganz in der Nähe der Flughalle - das Einzige, was ein wenig kritisch zu betrachten war, dass die Keyless Funktion des Autoschlüssels nicht funktionierte und nach kurzer Zeit im Display "Öl nachfüllen" aufleuchtete, was aufgrund des noch ausreichenden Ölstandes nach Prüfung durch einen Tankwart für unsere zurückgelegte Distanz über 9 Tage dann doch kein Problem war; bei der Rückgabe wies ich daraufhin, worauf man sich gleich um beides kümmerte, damit die nächsten keine Probleme haben; die Rückgabe selbst inkl. Des Checks verlief auch sehr unkompliziert und sympathisch!

In Lettland gibt es unmittelbar neben dem Flughafen von Riga eine Gemeinde, die "Entry Fee" in Höhe von EUR 2,00 (Umweltprämie) bei der Einfahrt verlangt, was auch durch entsprechende Hinweise gekennzeichnet ist.

Unmittelbar im Land angekommen hat man erst einmal was anderes zu tun, als sich um diese Schilder zu kümmern.

Weder wird man beim Abholen des Fahrzeugs darauf hingewiesen, noch sind entsprechende Hinweise im Vertrag oder im Fahrzeug.

Beim Durchfahren wird das Kennzeichen abgescannt und ohne bezahlte "Entry Fee" sind jedes Mal EUR 50.- Strafzahlung fällig.

Zudem wird durch GreenMotion eine Bearbeitungsgebühr von EUR 72,60 pauschal verlangt, was als Wucher bezeichnet werden darf.

Great Service
August 17, 2023

Green Motion gave us excellent service. The kiosk was so easy to locate. The CSRs were friendly and patient. My only concern was the switching of vehicles from a VW to an opus when we got there. We chose the VW on purpose to accommodate our drivers. Other than that the service and price couldn't be beat!

The initial formalities went smoothly. As it turned out, the car we booked was not available. We were offered another, higher class for an additional fee. We didn't agree, so we had to wait (I don't know if it's standard trickery procedure). Fortunately, after about half an hour, the Toyota Yaris in the hybrid version appeared and despite the fact that it is a smaller car than the compact class, we were satisfied, we got more for less (plus low fuel consumption, good dynamics and nice handling on Scottish roads). We took care of the car normally and there were no problems when returning the compliment, formalities, surcharge for excess miles and that's it. I don't think we would have any problems using this company in the future. The service was at a good level. Recommend if you want a cheap car rental.
