Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 101 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Customers felt misled by trial offers that automatically converted into recurring subscriptions, resulting in unexpected charges of around €39-€40 without clear consent. Many found it difficult to cancel subscriptions or remove payment details, with some reporting charges even after cancellation or needing to block the company via their bank. The service itself often failed to meet expectations, as many advertisements were outdated, fake, or redirected users to other platforms where listings were unavailable. Reviewers also highlighted a significant lack of communication, with the company failing to provide payment notifications or respond to inquiries, making it difficult to resolve issues.

Hello Mihai,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take concerns about listings and accuracy very seriously.

As a property listings aggregator, Rentola displays ads from multiple sources from private landlords and agencies to partner sites to provide users with a comprehensive overview of available properties. However, it's the listings owner's responsibility to update them and we understand that some older listings may appear and could cause confusion. We make every effort to ensure that listings are up-to-date and these can always be reported to us for our review and action.

We requested your details via Trustpilot’s secure system, but since we did not receive a response from you, we are currently unable to take further action on this matter. We appreciate your feedback, and if you would still like us to assist further, you can reach our support team by completing the contact form available in the T&Cs on our website.

Best regards,

Scam Company

at the beginning it says you have to pay 15 lei (3 euros to unblock the phone numbers) no one wrote that it was a subscription and I was charged 200 lei (40 euros) I barely managed to log in again to the site to cancel the subscription and after I was charged I didn't even receive an email with a secure invoice the invoice that is in the application is a mockery of customers because it is just a site that redirects you to other sites I have asked for a refund and if it is not favorable I will go to consumer protection

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your feedback.

Rentola provides trial and subscription access according to the plan selected at sign-up, and all associated fees are outlined during registration and in our Terms and Conditions. The initial low-cost fee allows users to explore the platform, and if the trial is not canceled before it ends, the full subscription price is applied automatically. All billing is handled according to these terms.

scam company

Scam company, deplorable, no real listings. This is a predatory business model which WILL charge a subscription fee (of $65, which NO ONE would pay willingly) even after cancelling your account. You can't even apply to listings- they just lead to other external paid websites. Support was unhelpful and refused to refund me. Seriously guys, it's a rental crisis out here and Rentola is taking advantage of vulnerable people with little to no money.,

Hello Alex

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take concerns about billing, listings, and support very seriously.

To clarify, Rentola is a property listings aggregator, which means we compile and display rental listings from various sources from private landlords to partner sites, in one place for easier browsing. Some listings may link to external websites where the landlord or property manager handles applications directly. This approach allows us to provide a wide range of options but all listings on our platform are clearly marked as coming from external sources when applicable.

Hello Precy,

Thank you for sharing your feedback.

To reach our support team directly, please use the contact form as outlined in our Terms & Conditions. Replies sent to automated emails are not received by our support team, so we do not see messages sent that way.

Please note that we do not charge free accounts—only active subscriptions are billed. It’s possible that you signed up on Rentola.com but are trying to access your subscription on Rentola.co.uk. Subscriptions are site-specific and do not transfer between platforms, so access will only be available on the site where the subscription was created.

Hello Jonathan,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take concerns like yours very seriously.

We would like to clarify that Rentola operates several sister sites, each with its own subscription plans and support teams. Accounts and subscriptions on one platform do not automatically transfer to another. Each subscription needs to be created separately by the user on the specific site, and all applicable subscription fees are charged accordingly.

Charged and got nothing back

I was charged 40€ for the services and got nothing in return. I used the page to contact people that were renting apartments in the Netherlands and 0 responded. I got charged after a 7 day trial period and asked for a refund because the site gave me 0 responses and they responded that the policy is that they do not refund because it says so in the contract. So basically, I gave 40€ for nothing, got nothing in return and they didn't even offer to help me and contact the unresponsive sellers o their site...

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand your concerns and take feedback like this very seriously.

Rentola provides a trial to explore the platform. If the trial is not canceled before it ends, the full subscription fee is applied automatically, as outlined during registration and in our Terms and Conditions. All listings on the platform are provided and managed by landlords, agencies, or third-party partners, which means we do not control whether or how they respond to messages.

You should never engage to this company. It hasn’t been useful in finding place to rent or stay but still charged me with €39 after 7-day trial period. There wasn’t any reminder that my trial period was ending and i was charged amounting to €39.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this situation must be.

We would like to clarify that subscriptions are only activated after completing the registration steps and confirming the plan during sign-up. That said, we genuinely want to review your case properly and provide a clear, personalized response.

To do this, we have requested your contact details via Trustpilot’s secure system.
We had the pleasure and opportunity to have talked to you in the past where we made it all clear - the subscription was activated following the trial period and according to the Terms and Conditions you agreed to during registration. All charges applied were valid, and the service was made available to you during the paid period. We have provided detailed information on how the subscription works and why the charge occurred.

We sincerely regret any inconvenience this may have caused and we hope that our assistance has helped clarify the situation and improved your experience with us.

Big scam

I am still being charged €39 after canceling my subscription. I originally paid €1 for a trial period, which, as I was led to believe, should have ended after a week with no further charges unless I chose to continue. But somehow, even though I followed all the steps to cancel the subscription, my card is still being charged.

I’ve tried contacting your customer service, but it’s been clear that responses are neither quick nor helpful, which is exactly what I expected given the level of service I’ve experienced so far.

At this point, I really don’t think I should have to continue chasing this. Please issue a refund for the charges that should never have been applied in the first place, and ensure that no further charges will occur.

Misleading subscription

Be careful of them! They have multiple domains in different countries and you can accidentally register for multiple websites (e.g. rentola.com, rentola.fi etc.). I just lost 800 EUR because I did not notice I have double ongoing subscription for two of their websites. Check your account and remember to cancel the subscription as soon as you do not use it. I just paid them the full year of some premium service which i never used.

Update : Now my review was flagged even though I replied to additional questions from Rentola via their online form. Really shady behavior.
