For years I always book through Carjet and always book a Green Motion car. Their customer service is always great. I was disappointed this time in their definition of a mid size automatic car. If that was mid size Toyota Yaris I wouldn’t like to see a smaller car. It was the most uncomfortable car to drive. Comparison to a four wheeler wheel barrow. Very disappointing

Thank you for returning to Green Motion over the years and for recognising the customer service. We understand why this booking disappointed you: the Yaris did not match what you expected from a midsize automatic and you found it uncomfortable to drive. If you would like the booked category compared with the car supplied, please send your Carjet confirmation and rental reference privately to ics@cs.greenmotion.com so customer services can review them.

Friendly and good customer service

Friendly and good customer service. Vehicle was very good and economical. However the location of the office at Edinburgh Airport is hard to find at Secure Parks, and it would be helpful if it was located in the main car rental centre, nearer the hotels.

Thank you for your balanced review. We’re glad the team was friendly and the vehicle was good and economical. We’re sorry the Secure Parks office at Edinburgh Airport was hard to find; your suggestion about clearer access near the main rental centre is useful feedback.

Green motion has become my favourite car rental: their delivery and return process is quick and smooth, staff are friendly and sociable, the rental prices are very reasonable, often you are given an upgrade at no extra charge ( on more than one occasion I was given an automatic instead of a manual car and a bigger car than I had booked) ; the location is actually in one of the airport car parks which means a few minutes on the shuttle.

Predatory pricing. Don’t rent.

Like so many of the other reviews Green Motion has received, this is a bad review.
I'd advise you not to rent. This company has predatory pricing based around collision damage waver insurance. Even though I had such insurance, carried through my credit card company, I didn't have the "correct" paperwork to "prove" it, and had to pay an additional significant amount of money if I wanted to rent the car that day. I've rented dozens of cars over the years, and have not had this experience.
Update. Following my posting of this poor review, Green Motion left a reply (below) asking me to contact them. I have already done that, although it took some effort, but despite showing them the details of the CDW insurance I had in place at the time of the rental, unsurprisingly Green Motion has denied a refund of the additional and unnecessary CDW insurance I was required to purchase from Green Motion if I wanted to rent the car.
Even the request to contact them to resolve this is a sham as i already have and it has led nowhere. I still had to pay a significant amount of money for unnecessary insurance and Green Motion continues to deny a refund despite having the paperwork showing the necessary insurance was already in place.

I would give no stars

I would give no stars. Similar issue to others, you need to read every term and condition as they will refuse to release a hire car if you fail to comply. And although they don’t remind you that you need physical cards, you need one (credit card!!) or they hold on to the car and your cash. Do not use, pay a little more to use a competitor! Their complaint team took over 3 weeks to replay and it was only when I copied their CEO into the email that I got a response.

I’m sorry the card requirement prevented you from collecting your car at Edinburgh Airport and that your complaint took so long to receive a response. We understand how upsetting it is to lose both the rental and access to funds. Please share your booking and complaint reference with our customer service team so they can review the information given before arrival and the handling of your case.
