How will we respond:

We will do our best to resolve your complaint immediately and with the minimum of inconvenience to you.
Our first step is to understand what the problem is and to find out what we can do to put the matter right.
Sometimes we may not be able to sort it out straight away. Where we cannot resolve it in a few days through the or where we receive a written or verbal complaint, this is what you can expect from us:
Information of who is handling your complaint and how to contact them. Sometimes this may not be the person who received your complaint but the individual best placed to deal with it. We will aim to keep you informed of any progress, though please be aware that when we need to liaise with third parties for assistance or information, we may not be able to resolve your complaint as quickly as we would like to.

We aim to resolve your complaint within four weeks. If we are unable to do so, we will write explaining what’s happening and let you know when we expect to do so.

If you are still not happy…

Our aim is to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible and to your complete satisfaction. If, for whatever reason, you are unhappy with the response you receive from us please get in touch directly with the person or department who handled your complaint. They will then agree with you what the next steps are.
If you are still dissatisfied, please contact us again and we will be able to advise you of the appropriate company / body to refer your complaint to.
If we cannot satisfy your complaint and an agreement is made to replace or refund you will be charged for the daily use that you have had from your vehicle at a reasonable weekly rate in line with local rates of a leading car hire company at the time of the event. The costs of returning a vehicle for repair or replacement will fall with you the customer.
