... I have hired from Hertz rental twice in Lanzarote, once through Holiday Autos, and once through the rep in resort, and amazingly had the same car (I don’t mean the same model, I mean the same car) on both occasions without any problems. I have not, however, booked with them direct, until ... Read review

Diamond review   IT DIDN'T 'HERT' A BIT
Review of Hertz by sue.51

Advantages: Excellent prepaid rates, nice car, helpful staff
Disadvantages: Confusion over discount rates, high excess if you don't pay the waiver charge

...I have hired from Hertz rental twice in Lanzarote, once through Holiday Autos, and once through the rep in resort, and amazingly had the same car (I don’t mean the same model, I mean the same car) on both occasions without any problems. I have not, however, booked with them direct, until now. THEIR WEBSITE As with most car rentals these days, websites tend to be the first port of call. Hertz website, like most of their international counterparts, ...
...to Zimbabwe (you can hire Hertz cars in Afghanistan?). Hertz offer manuals and automatics and car models range from a small Hyundai Getz right up to a Mercedes Van, although prices for the bigger vehicles are not quoted on the site, hence you need to phone to book. BOOKING Once your country and language are selected, you are directed to their booking site, where you input your chosen city or airport code, whether you are returning it to the same ...

Hertz Hurts the Pocket
Review of Hertz by sandrabarber

Advantages: lovely car, friendly staff
Disadvantages: staff a bit too casual, expensive

...I went straight onto the Hertz website (www.hertz.co.uk) and booked. I booked myself the smallest, cheapest car (listed as 'Fiat Siecento or similar') for 3 days (8.40 a.m. Monday to 5.30 p.m. Wednesday) and paid just under £140 including insurance. I wasn't going to have the insurance, which would have worked out over £30 cheaper, but when I realised I would be liable for £500 excess I took it just in case. I arrived at Hertz at 8.40 the next ...
...On the Hertz side, they just had a look around the bodywork to see that I'd done no damage. Staff were again very polite, and I was glad to see that although it was by now 5.25 p.m. they weren't having their tea out front. I was returning the car to the same place I'd hired it from, but you can of course hire a Hertz car and return it to any Hertz shop in the country and even abroad. BOOKING Very easy indeed online, by phone or at a Hertz hire ... Read review

Get Yourself a Goldmember-ship
Review of Hertz by Scott_Howitt

Advantages: Lightning Fast to Your Car
Disadvantages: Not the Cheapest Car Rental

...companies in the US and Hertz seem to be the most efficient in getting me out and on my way. Hertz #1 Club Gold If you rent cars more than twice a year I suggest that you purchase a Hertz #1 Club Gold membership. For the price of £32 per year you can skip the check-in counter all together. You can simply make your reservations and when you arrive at the airport you can go right to your car. This saves the time and hassle of going to the counter. ...
...you are taken to the Hertz lot via one of their yellow and black shuttle buses. If the airport actually has cars on the lot Hertz will be one of the car companies there. There are rental companies that are not on the airport premises or don’t offer shuttle buses. Be sure you check and make sure this is the case. When you walk up to the bus, the driver will ask you if you are a Gold member. If you are they will take your name and it will be beamed ... Read review

Hertz nearly broke our Hearts
Review of Hertz by proxam

Advantages: They rent cars
Disadvantages: sometimes

...I don't hire directly from Hertz either but use a consolidator's website, which is: http://www.carhire4less.co.uk/ They will quote prices for Alamo, Budget, Europcar and Hertz and they are generally around 10-15% less expensive than any other source. So much for the booking advice, what I want to discuss here is my most recent experience with Hertz. As anyone who has been paying attention will know, My wife and I travelled to Poland and Slovakia ...
...in their vehicles and indeed Hertz won't allow you to go there with certain makes, for example: Volkswagon, Audi, BMW and Mercedes. The risk of theft is higher with these makes apparently. We informed them of our travel plans and we were all set to go. OR SO WE THOUGHT. I have hired from them many times and have had no problems whatsoever. My only complaint previously was being billed twice. (When hiring through carhire4less, you pay them directly ... Read review

Do You Work For Hertz?
Review of Hertz by signals

Advantages: They want to stay #1.
Disadvantages: They lost a year ago!

...reservation! I'll never rent from Hertz again...blah, blah, blah! I once got in trouble because a customer asked if I work for Hertz, and I said "NO!" Let's see, I have a Hertz cap, a Hertz jacket, and a Hertz shirt, and even as a walking billboard, people still ask that question. Then you get the people who are ticked off because something went wrong with their car and refuse to give you(the billboard) the key to their car! You can all relax, I've ...
...Ever notice that when Hertz is out of cars, so are the competitors? Hertz would have to pay another rental company and get a car if you really demanded it, or pay the differtence between it's price and the competitor. This was just my observation. At one time cars sat idle for days. Solution-cut the fleet. The fact that they really have no cars is good for them because that's how they make money! Do yourself a favor and check your insurance policy, ... Read review
