Hired a car for 2 days with Hertz from Belfast International Airport. Collection and drop off were easy, which was a relief as I was travelling alone with my two kids. There were two extra marks on the car which I took pictures of and downloaded to a link sent by hertz. There was no need to go back into the airport and discuss this further. My car and fuel deposit was large (£1680 in total) and I was worried about this pending on my credit card bill. I spoke to the Hertz contact at Belfast International following my trip and he reassured me everything would be repaid soon. He was friendly and helpful going out of his way to look into my booking. Sure enough, the money was repaid within 7 days as promised. Drop off was simple and the guy receiving the car was helpful and friendly (Glenn). We made our way back to the airport and checked in. We were just about to empty our bags and coats into the security boxes when I received a phone call from Glenn advising that we had left an iPad on the back seat of the car. I asked if they would be happy to bring it to us to save us coming of the barriers and having to check in again - I imagined this would be hard work with easyJet! Another of the collection guys kindly bought the iPad to us - I was so appreciative of this and their honesty. As for rebooking with hertz, I would not hesitate at all. They were very reasonably priced and their staff were pleasant, patient, trustworthy and reassuring. Thank you so much all of you and keep up the good work! Read more
