AVOID THEM

The person recieving the car at the end of the rental was very rude, accused me of damaging the car and they have now charged my credit card £300 EUR for damage even though I had full insurance which is supposed to cover everything. AVOID AVOID AVOID

We are looking forward to hearing from you!

The whole experience was seamless

The whole experience was seamless. I would like to acknowledge specifically Stella who booked me in and was very patient. She made sure that all my paperwork was correct, sorted me with a sim card for my phone and spent extra time showing me around the hire car and how to use the sat nav. This lady was beautiful inside and out!

I would also like to thank Kristofar who sorted me out when I dropped off the hire car in the early hours of the morning. He even helped me lug my heavy suitcase out of the boot which was really appreciated. The car was also new and ran well so all in all a great experience.

Good but some improvements are required

Getting & returning the car was a smooth experience however I couldn’t match my iphone with the car’s system which made driving very challenging
I would also suggest that cars are given with a 100% full tank and not 90% as it’s more difficult to return the car with 90% full tank.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for your feedback and for choosing our service.
We’re pleased to hear that the pick-up and return process was smooth. We’re sorry to learn about the difficulty you experienced connecting your iPhone to the car’s system. In many cases, this can be quickly resolved with a few setup steps, and our team is always available to assist or provide guidance if needed.
Regarding the fuel, we would like to clarify that our policy is to provide vehicles with a full tank, and we kindly ask customers to return them full as well. If the fuel level was not at 100% upon collection, this may have been an oversight, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will use it to continue improving our service. We hope to welcome you again and provide a fully seamless experience next time.
Best regards,
Top Rent A Car

Top Experience!

I have hired several cars from you in recent years but this was my first from Plovdiv Airport. I did book in advance and had completed my details prior to collection so the whole experience was extremley quick, easy and straight forward. The car was as expected and described and was of the usual high standard. The Top Rent a Car representative at the aiprort was very proffesional, freindly and helpful both on collection and return, thank you.

The only thing that I didn’t like is that they ask for a good review before giving you back the deposit.

Profit before customers seems to be the motto now

I rented a Renault Clio for 5 days, picking it up from Varna Airport after dark. As a result, I was unable to check the vehicle for damage. When I returned the car to the airport (having driven it very little) 5 days later, the agent undertook the check in my absence over a prolonged period and then asked me to come and see a barely visible scratch to one of the wheel trims, for which I am very confident I was not responsible. I was then kept waiting for 30 minutes while he tried to work out how much this would cost me. I was finally charged a total of 235 euros for this tiny scratch. The rental of the vehicle by itself cost 120 euros. I was unable to argue my case, otherwise I would have missed my flight. My request for a refund from the company was met with a firm blank. I shall not be using this rental company again. I note that my issue seems to replicate that of Mr Sharp who left a similar review on 7th April. This is a company that now clearly puts profit before customer care or goodwill. I am also very suspicious now as to whether the damage was actually sustained during the period of the rental.

Dear Mr. Hallowes,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
At pick-up, all vehicles are provided with a damage report, and customers are encouraged to inspect the car carefully and report any discrepancies before leaving the location. We understand that collecting a vehicle after dark can make this more difficult, and we always recommend using a phone flashlight or requesting assistance from our staff to ensure everything is clearly documented at the start of the rental.
Regarding the return process, our standard procedure is to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle to identify any new damage that may have occurred during the rental period. Any findings are assessed according to our damage policy and pricing guidelines, which are applied consistently across all cases. The charge issued reflects the cost associated with repair or replacement as determined by these guidelines, not the rental price itself.
We regret that you felt rushed due to your flight schedule, as we always aim to ensure customers have the opportunity to review and discuss any findings during the return process. We also understand your concerns about the origin of the damage; however, based on our records and inspection procedures, the charge was applied in line with our terms and conditions.
Your feedback is important to us, and we will continue working to improve clarity and transparency during both pick-up and return, especially in situations involving limited visibility.
Best regards,
Top Rent A Car

Great service! The administrative process can improve

The car was in great conditions and the personnel was very friendly. We were just unlucky that when trying to sign the contract, the webpage was not working properly so were not able to sign it digitally and instead the worker had to print the 30 pages of contract. That was not the problem itself, but rather that the printer was also not working properly and it took 20 minutes for printing.
