East Coast Car Rentals Avaliações 

Another smooth experience with East Coast Car Rentals. We’ve been using them a couple of times a year for the past 10 years and continue to be very happy with the service we receive. Great price, too.

Best value car rental and while in Adelaide it is not located at the airport, it is very close by and the shuttle services are great. I always use East Coast

Seamless experience from start to finish. This is the second time I've used East Coast Car Rentals, two different cities, but again very happy customer. Staff are friendly and helpful, both in the shop as well as the airport drivers, Darren and Kathy (I think it was Kathy, apologies if wrong). Transfers simple and quick. I won't use any other car rental company, this is the only one I've never had some issue occur with.

The staff, condition of the car and the ease of the transaction.

Quick, good cars, efficient pick up and drop off to off site. Really nice staff - big shout out to Jason.

Used twice and will use agsin

Had a car rental organised for pick up in qld. The shuttle bus was a great and fast service but the positivity to this experience stopped there when arrived to collect the car the lady had pointed out a under age fee as I’m 24 I was already aware of this prior except there was an additional charge of a The $215.99 included the Premium Loss damage Waiver this wasn’t told it was optional and that I could have chosen security bond instead that would have been the option I would have chosen. On their website it states this which is not true at all.
(We believe in honest, all-inclusive pricing. The quote you see is the price you pay, with no hidden booking charges or surprise fees at the counter.)

I would strongly recommend looking for another provider one that genuinely cares about their clients and their money. I rented a car from them and returned it in good condition, yet they claimed to have found a small scratch on the windshield. They’ve been holding my $1,000 deposit ever since. I’ve been chasing them for updates, but keep getting passed from one person to another with no resolution. At this point, I think Fair Trading is the best option. In the meantime, I would avoid dealing with them altogether.

Everything just worked -- smoothly and without stress

Prices and service were excellent. A good experience all round. Will definitely use East Coast again. There was some confusion re booking on the website but it was sorted easily over the phone

Smooth pickup and drop off car was good.

We hide A Renault small SUV for four days in it done approximately 4000 K, so was in good condition.

The only annoying factor was a rattle in the drivers door.

The service at the counter was good and fast as was the shuttle to the airport The right was okay cheaper than most but like everything these days too expensive.

The only other negative comment that I would make is that their shuttle service only goes between their base and the airport. They don’t pick up or drop off at hotels. I know a lot of higher car companies only do that these days but Some will do the hotel pick up and return.

I have been using ECCR every time I travel to Melbourne. The experience was always great on the previous occasions and this time was no exception. Staff were friendly and quick and we got our two cars within 20 minutes. As we chose zero liability the staff did not even go through the cars with us and told us to just drive off. Returning was a breeze also. Just handed the keys to a guy after we parked and all good.

I've never used East Coast Cars before and so it was a gamble. I couldn't have been happier. From the pick up at the aiport to collection of the car, and then drop off and lift back 6 days later, I couldn't rate it highly enough. We ended up with what I think is a better car than I had booked (Mitsubishi ASX instead of a MG ZS). The staff were friendly, helpful and efficient, with clear communication on how to find the pick up point at the airport and also the drop off procedure. It was a great price for a great service and I will definitely use them again.

Great service, upgraded car and great kms for the hire time. Will be using next time we visit!

We just got on shuttle to airport 2 min before our boarding gate opened! The driver said he’d try his best and he really did exceed! We made the flight, despite heavy traffic to the airport. Our shuttle driver was very attentive to gaps in traffic and slow lanes!
ECCR is so close to the official airport entry, and shuttles both ways were very frequent.

Using East Coast Rentals for my last holiday was a real disappointment. I don’t typically leave reviews but I do so today to warn other travelers before they book with this company:
1) Safety & Cleanliness: I rented a booster seat for my 6 year old son to use whilst on our trip in Sydney. The car seat did not have the necessary LATCH safety clips to attach to the vehicle we hired and when I asked for a replacement, it was declined. The car seat was also completely filthy with old food and muck in the holders.
2) Customer Service: The attendant who checked us in was highly assertive to sell the added insurance that went with the car program and explained that if any damage occurs to the vehicle a $5,500 fee would be charged, regardless of scope or if we already have insurance. When we declined the additional insurance she became passive aggressive.
3) Tolls: East Coast Rentals do not install toll beacons in their cars which means each time you drive a vehicle through a toll system you will be charged a $1.10 admin fee for each toll.
4) Finding East Coast Rentals: I had expected that following the company's instructions on their website to find their shuttle bus would be easy. It was not. The company does not have a suitable bus pick up location as compared to Hertz or other competitors.
All in all there are a lot of areas the company could improve to ensure their clients have a better and safer experience!

Having picked up a smaller car than booked from Sydney Airport, the car had serious steering wobble from wheel misalignment. Newcastle came to the rescue, going out of their way to secure us a correct size car in good condition. The manager (Dan?) was particularly helpful

Complete lack of understanding, had booked a rental with ec for the week as the carlift in my building had broken down/ need a car for work and was told would be out of service for the rest of the week, repairs happened yesterday.. spoken to ec re a possibility of a partial refund which I was told twice yes that would be possible only to get a call back after literally beginning to make my way back to return the car a refund isn't possible because I opted for payment online ie. The least amount paid for renting the car, and I would incur a 50 dollar charge for returning the car early.. first and last time renting anything with east coast rentals

One of the worst rental experiences we’ve ever had — and we were stranded with a toddler. Our flight landed at 10:00 PM (only 15 mins late), and by the time we collected our luggage and called East Coast Car Rentals at exactly 10:30 PM, their office was already shut. No one answered, no instructions were provided, and we had no way to access the car we had booked. We had to scramble late at night with a child under 2, pay for multiple taxis — to their office, then to our accommodation, and again the next morning — just to finally get the vehicle.

To make matters worse, when they called back the next day, the staff were completely unapologetic and rude, repeatedly blaming us and showing zero empathy. Then, when I called on the day of return to simply ask how long the car return process usually takes so I could plan my journey, I was met with one of the rudest customer service reps I’ve ever spoken to. He outright refused to give me any timeframe and wouldn't explain why I couldn’t request an airport shuttle over the phone.

Very poor operations. No accountability. No support. And absolutely disgraceful customer service. Never booking with them again.

They keep charging my credit card without any information about what for! Would expect some kind of explanation before doing this weeks after car returned. Looks like duplication of charges
