My comments are only about the booking experience so far - which has been excellent. Competitively priced, with clear options. I have yet to pickup the car, so hoping that will all go smoothly

Their staff are friendly

Their staff are friendly, welcoming and had a good experience with them. Only one suggestion I would have to give, when ever choose full insurance make sure this is with same company as rental car.

Quick, but lacking info

It was a quick and easy booking, but there lacked information about the local fees for border crossing.

It just vaguely stated "fees will apply" which I hope I can trust google with a cap at €30-50

Scammed and lack of concern from the site

I used this site and was scammed as a result. I found and paid for a rental agreement and the insurance, the company it advertised was using a different name/car and scammed me out of my money and i also paid this site for the insurance which did absolutely nothing in the end. i raised my concerns especially after being scammed, threatened and attacked by the company they chose to advertise and my concerns the company were falsely advertising under a different name and they couldnt give a damn.

Dear Rhys,

Thank you for your review.

We're very sorry to hear about your experience, and we take concerns about misrepresentation by a supplier seriously. However, no booking reference or account details have been included in this review, so we have no way to identify your booking or investigate what happened.

To be clear on our role: StressFreeCarRental.com is a price comparison and booking platform, not the car rental company. Rental agreements, vehicle provision, and insurance products offered by the supplier at the desk are between you and that supplier directly. Separately, we do also offer our own optional insurance products at the time of booking, and if you purchased one of these through us, we're happy to look into that specifically once we can identify your case.

If you'd like us to investigate, please email us at help@stressfreecarrental.com with your booking reference and full details, and we'll look into this properly.

2 customers in the rental queue used…

2 customers in the rental queue used this company. Both were not allowed to use their documentation and charged an additional £400 for the week rental. No contact number. Sat waiting for online service for 1 hour. No reply. Stranded on malaga thanks to stress free.

Dear Eve,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review.

We want to be clear that StressFreeCarRental.com is a price comparison and booking platform — we are not the car rental company. The rental agreement itself is directly between the customer and the supplier, who are responsible for vehicle collection, documentation requirements, and any charges applied at the rental desk.

We're sorry to hear you had a difficult experience in Malaga. However, no booking reference, name, or contact details have been included in this review, so we're unable to locate any booking or look into what happened on our end.

If you'd like us to review this, please email us at help@stressfreecarrental.com with your booking reference and full details, and we'll be happy to look into it.

Great experience after a late flight

Our rescheduled flight arrived 90 minutes late. Enterprise kept the desk open especially to make sure we had our car and we had a great hire experience at a good price. Thanks to the staff who went the extra mile

Overall good but be careful

The booking process was fairly straightforward, and the price was competitive. The airport pick-up was provided as advertised, and we were given a decent-sized SUV, which was suitable for our needs.

However, there were several issues with the overall experience. The car was dirty when we collected it and had an empty fuel tank, which was disappointing.

Although I had purchased additional insurance separately, OK Mobility appeared unhappy that I had not taken their insurance policy instead.

The paperwork and vehicle handover also took quite a while, which made the collection process more time-consuming than necessary.

On returning the vehicle, it felt as though the staff were looking carefully for faults. When they were unable to find any issues, they then commented that the car was dirty and needed to be washed.

I showed them the photographs I had taken at the time of collection, clearly showing that the vehicle was already dirty when we received it. They had no response to this.

exceptional service

quick, easy, stress free. The courier driver one of the most helpful employees I've come across, couldn't do enough for me especially when I realized I'd misplaced my glasses. First class service.
