GoCar Avaliações 292

I have used gocar a lot in the past and accepted that sometimes I’d turn up and the car wouldn’t be in the right place or it wouldn’t be there at all or wouldn’t open or a bit dirty. I took the good with the bad but then one day I saw 180 euro unilaterally taken from my credit card for valet of a car I rented. The car was a bit dirty when I rented it but I never reported it on the app as I always never do but this time they stung me without even notifying me and said they are entitled to and I have no recourse. I am pursuing them with the consumer agency. Be warned. The car had the usual level of uncleanliness that is always in their cars. I rented the same car on my street today and it is still dirty, they are just using it as a sharp way to extract money.

Same fraud as Ryanair. One cm away from the area you got the car or 1 minute later than booked, they charge you 5x more. It’s just a fraudulent company which should be shut down by governments immediately.

Van was clean and ran well. Little issue was sorted quickly using the chat function on the app.

I’ve tried for 2 months to activate my account, called customer service 4-5 times, wrote them as well, every time they said they’ll handle it and then nothing. one of the worst experiences with costumer care ever

Terrible! Not only did they downgrade the car we hired but also made us pay insurance because they didn’t accept the cards we had to hold the deposit. Completely unhelpful and a scam!!

By far the worst experience.
Initially the car was not at the reported location. It took us contacting support to find the car.
Upon entering, the car wouldn’t start (it seems the previous owner left the lights on). When we requested to have a new car, customer support cancelled our trip and asked us to make a new booking. Given the limited availability this left us stranded at our location with no options to get to where we needed to be in time.
I strongly even considering using them.

I used GoCar on and off when I moved to Ireland as I didn't really need my own car. The cars and availability was OK. The cars run, but are often dirty, warning lights flashing, and on one car I used a few times the clutch seems very worn. Booking often have to happen few days in advance and the process of unlocking the car can be troublesome. Had to call customer service to unlock more than once.

My situation changed and I needed my own car, so I stopped using GoCar. One day I needed a car while mine was at the mechanics and the app said I needed to update my drivers license photos. I updated my photos and assumed it was because I had changes to my drivers license recently. Was able to get my car back from the mechanics anyway, so no issues. I waited and waited, but my license wasn't accepted. Recently I needed a van to move a bigger item. I messaged customer service to get the issue sorted. They told me my account was under review due to an incident on a trip. I asked how long the investigation would go on as I uploaded my pictures a year ago at this point. I asked if I could assist any way and what the incident was about. They then message me back and said I was permanently banned due to breach of their terms. I asked what terms as I don't know what terms I breached. Only one I can think of is brining a pet in the car a few times. Their terms said it was allowed if you had a carrier, while on booking page it says no pets (which is confusing in itself). The customer service reps refuse to tell me what I'm banned for.

For this last trip I ended up using Yuko and the experience was so much better. The locking/unlocking experience was so smooth and the car was in very good condition. Wish I just went with Yuko right away.

Absolutely LOVED this hassle-free way of hiring a car to suit our needs. Used it 3 times. Vehicles were relatively late model and in good condition. Will definitely be using this service next time again!!

Very good service. Hired a van for 1.5hrs and everything worked seamlessly. Van clean but a bit grubby but to be expected . Would definitely use the service again.

Absolutely LOVED this hassle-free way of hiring a car to suit our needs (and pocket!). Used it 3 days running while on a family visit to Ireland. Excellent and immediate customer service when I wasn’t sure how the gas replenishment worked. Vehicles were relatively late model and in good nick. Will definitely be using this service next time we are in Ireland!!

I wrote about GoCar car rental company in Kuala Lumpur.
Please avoid this company. I rented a Honda car from them for 3 days. The car was dirty in and out, total payment with insurance was RM500+.
The worst was my return car experience. I took the car from KLIA 1 and returned to KLIA2. I unformed their support about it and I asked how much I need to pay extra for the wrong terminal.
The support team with no name told me at least RM178. I was ready to pay this amount or even more and fly. However they told me that noone knows how much penalty I need to pay as their financial team will calculate this amount during 3 days. As I do not want to pay unspecified amount I decided to get back from my airline gate to the car and drive it between terminals. Lucky my flight was delayed. However when I arrived to KLIA1 all parking places designated to GoCar were block by a Hertz car. I spent another 20-30 minutes to move the blocking car as they insisted that I need to return their car exactly at the parking where I took it 3 days ago.. These additional 20 minutes time was enough for me to miss my flight so I needed to pay for another flight and pay for one night hotel at the airport. Awful service. Avoid avoid avoid ...

From a long loyal customer that uses this company daily
My Taxi was 28 mins late making me late for work this morning, no apology from driver and no sense of urgency at all. And to be charged £9.90 for a 8 min journey is nothing short of day light robbery.
If the driver had to wait for me at any point I would be charged extra, so what about when you flip that so when your driver is late that the customer gets it discounted? as your not providing the service they are paying A LOT of money for!!

I had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience with GoCar recently in Ireland. I have been using the service for a while, I'm travelling for work from abroad and every so often need a car to reach rural areas.
This time however, I was left stranded in the middle of Waterford city. I booked and paid for my car through the App but the car never arrived to the base. Customer service was terrible, reluctant even to try to sort out the problem, I was told they only start tracking cars when they go "missing", so it turned out my car was somewhere else, two hours away. No solution, no alternative, no back-up car, no compensation etc was offered at all, I was told that this is it, nothing can be done. I was stranded in the city where I don't live, took me over 3 hours to get home to my Irish "base" and most importantly it was far too late to sort out a car for a very early start of next morning's work - the very reason I needed a car in the first place. Consequently I lost a full day work, and everyone working freelance would understand what this means. I made phone calls to GoCar, I wrote a complaint letter in their "Request" section - received no response whatsoever. I have been given a €25 credit on the App, which is an insult really, taking it for granted that I will keep using this company!? The €25 didn't even cover my evening journey home on that day. So, unless you don't necessarily have to get to anywhere with your car, you can't rely on GoCar. If you use it for important journeys that actually have to be realised as planned, think again and keep away from these people.

We have booked a GoCargo in Dundalk, arrived at the parking lot, and unsuccessfully tried to unlock the car a few times. We called a very unhelpful customer service that couldn’t unlock the car either and moreover they didn’t find a solution to accompany us with any replacement car.
They even had a difficulty checking if there are any other available cars in the system as they referred us to the app. After a few arguments it turned out that it’s actually possible to check from their side any available slots. As customer service they failed to provide any help and we were left without a car even though they work with Europcar, so probably a solution could be found.
Very unpleasant experience. We do not recommend go car.

Here is my story. I decided to try GoCar, so I downloaded the GoCar app and filled all the details. I photographed my driving license and made selfie of myself with the license card next to my face.
Guess what happened next? For four days in a row I receive emails from GoCar asking to upload the photos of my license and my selfie, as they are "not clear". So I did it again and again but now my patience is over! The GoCar attitude looks as a sheer mocking to me. Because you really can't make poor quality photos with the high resolution camera three times in a row. The help line of GoCar is not possible to reach and you can't reply to those emails and find out what is wrong with your photos. So I give up and wish GoCar all the worst!

No customer service... no live chat its a bot... avoid

Organised to pick up a Go Van from Tesco, Holywell, Swords. On arrival I was greeted with a dirty, damaged van. It really looked like it hadn’t been looked after.
The interior unfortunately wasn’t much better, with stained seats and grubby loading area. The radio didn’t work either.
I drove 12km to Oldtown, Co.Dublin, problem free. After loading the van (took 30 minutes), I jumped back in the drivers seat, however the van would not start. I contacted their customer service team, where I was told that I could be waiting some time for assistance.
Turns out the battery was flat.

Once I got it going again, an hour behind schedule, a low oil warning light popped up on the dashboard. Again, having discussed the issue with their customer service team, I was instructed to drive it to the nearest Circle K and purchase “oil” on the fuel card. It needed diesel anyway, so I drove the opposite direction again for 12-14km, which I was charged for.

Having discussed with their customer service what oil the van required, I was first told that they didn’t have a clue, followed by what was in the service book, which suggested i took it to the main dealer and then I was told that any synthetic oil will do. I purchased the any synthetic oil will do, paying cash as their fuel card will not accept oil. Having topped it up, I managed to proceed with my now hour and a half late journey, with extra mileage and extra cost.

I requested if I could speak to a manager, to discuss the issues including the rental cost. One week on, I haven’t had a reply and I have not been reimbursed in any way.
