I just wasted a day of my life,
I just wasted a day of my life,
People please do a U turn now!
I normally don t write reviews but on this occasion I have to.
1. Finding the place was a mission, no permits provided have to use pay and display.
2.Their office is in a container, cluttered and tight.
3.Members of staff did not formally introduce themselves or explain the procedures.
4. Even at this point no one knows if the cars are available.
5. You have to take a theory test, only mentioned when I arrived their.
6. Another surprise you have to take a practical test.
7. Their fleet of cars have cameras and gps trackers built in, they like to spy on you.
8. I am 31, I have a clean driving license and been driving for 10 years now.
9. Despite my experience I did not meet their guidelines and they refused to give me a car.
To sum it up this was a terrible experience from start to finish. My whole day was wasted due to lack of information provided by Otto cars team. If I had been informed about the theory and practical test from start I would have opted for another supplier saving me a lot of time and hassle. Their intention from the beginning was to only inform me when I arrived at their office, this is a very sly approach from this team as they know the customer would have no choice then but to sit the test in order to save a wasted journey. Their guidelines on how to drive a Toyota Prius is a joke, to be honest you have a better chance of passing your driving test again. I have rented many cars before from different suppliers and had no issues. Otto cars are treating their Toyotas like Ferraris, so much excess you have to go through just to rent a car from them. People do yourself a favour and go to Europcar or enterprise.
