“There are better choices”

Written on: 21/05/2013 by GavinEvans

Booked a Focus sized vehicle for 9 days in May 2013 from Alicante airport. We used them 2 years ago and had a good experience although I did not realise that my wife had accepted the compfort insurance for 70 euros back then. I booked them through Autoeurope and although Goldcar came up us cheaper plus a free extra driver I decided to go with recordgo. I checked reviews for Goldcar and was put off when people mentioned the queues. Got to the airport and there was actually a bigger queue for... (read more)

“Record Car Hire.... a happy experience”

Written on: 14/05/2013

I hired a group D car for pickup at Malaga airport on the 10th March until the 03rd May, 54 days. I was given a ford focus with just 1500Kls on the clock. I had arrived at the car hire desk at 20;00, only one other customer at the desk and only had 10 minute wait before completing the paperwork. The cost of the hire was £272 paid in the Uk on CC and a further equivalent in euros of £213 for extra insurance I had to agree to because of my age, for inclusion of my wife on the hire agreement...

“They will rip you off”

Written on: 11/04/2013 by Gustav77 (1 review written)

We chose this company due to it's low price in car rental search engines. At arrival we found out that in addition to the already paid rental fee we'd have to pay for a mandatory tank of gas at €85! This is far more than the cost of filling up the Ford Fiesta and it's nothing but a rip off that enables them to have the lowest list price in search engines. In addition they claim that "not all" damages are covered by the included insurance and wanted us to pay an extra €75 for additional... (read more)

“Extra Insurance, windscreen etc........”

Written on: 03/04/2013 by vatk60 (1 review written)

Always have used GoldCar from Malaga Airport, with no problems, but thought I would try Record via DoYouSpain because of cost. Pre-booked a Seat Ibiza for 4 days (27-31st march 2013), and opted to pay the additional insurance to cover windscreen, undercarriage etc. If you do not pay for this, then they are entitled to debit your card 400 euros for any damage. They gave me a Fiesta, which I was happy to accept, until I saw the state of it. I dont think there was a panel without some kind of... (read more)

“excessive charges rip-off”

Written on: 31/03/2013 by agric (1 review written)

Rented car for pickup at Malaga Airport via Holiday Autos - initial headline price for 1 week was £31. I opted for Holiday Autos insurance excess waiver - cost was an additional £35! At Record desk in airport I had to pay 81 euros for full tank of fuel and return it empty. Also coerced into paying extra 8 euros per day for insurance as Holiday Autos insurance does not give full cover. So now this car which was headlined at £31 has cost me £190!!

After hiring a car from DoYouSpain in Sept 2012 which in turn passed me to Record car hire I was forced to write a review on here giving both companies a bad name. Everything that you have nightmares about happened...so when I got an email from Record car hire a couple of days ago I was very pleased to read that they were giving me back the "over payment of the full tank racket".

“Fuel Policy Impossible ”

Written on: 19/02/2013 by dcallen2 (1 review written)

It has become fashionable for Car Rental Companies to hide costs within their fuel policy. Until a few years ago it was customary to return the car full, but now many rental agencies insist that you bring the car back empty. How is this possible? Without risking running out of petrol on the motorway to the airport? This policy is so customer-unfriendly that it stinks. Record Go will not reimburse you for any fuel left in the tank, and they charge you much more than the petrol station will... (read more)

“Worlds Worse Rental Company”

Written on: 03/02/2013 by P.Finch (1 review written)

I collected my car (A Nissan Micra) from Malaga airport. I gave it a quick look over and whilst it looked like it had had a hard life all seemed well. It wasn't until the next morning that when I went to the car I could see a bald patch on a section of the tyre. The car must have had a steering or suspension problem causing wear in one point on the tyre. The car had probably been parked with this point at the bottom of the tyre so I didn't see it when we collected the car. I then... (read more)

“Record Go ”

Written on: 03/02/2013

Hired a car from Record Go from Palma Airport in 2011. We picked up the car in a dark basement without any light. Clearly a strategy! After returning the car 1week later we were charged £400 for 'damage' to the car. After 2 letters to the Car Hire Website the £400 was returned. The staff from Record Go are trained to behave this way and I would guess they are in on the strategy. 3 lessons. 1. Don't use Record Go 2. Always check the car for damage. 3. Always complain when you are in the... (read more)

NEVER want you to allocate Record rent a car to us. We were treat very badly and we wish to complain.

“Robbery included.”

Written on: 25/11/2012

A few years ago, we hired a car from Record Go (Mallorca). We arranged everything online and paid the full amount in advance with a credit card. Once we arrived, they needed our credit card for the insurance. (They don’t accept cash. Only credit cards.) Once home we’ve noticed they charged us the full cost for the car again. So we were charged twice. At that time we didn’t know which party robbed us. (Record Go Mallorca or the online rental shop) A month ago we used again a car from... (read more)

“Worst EVER”

Written on: 09/11/2012 by a541

This is the worst and most dishonest, uncaring car hire company you will ever come across. They have been illegally holding a 400 euro deposit of ours since 2nd September. The infuriating thing is that they will not answer our emails. The numbers advertised for customer services do not connect to any phone line. Just never, never hire a car with them. It is far better to pay a little more and deal with an honourable car hire company. (read more)

Having read some of the reviews I can only agreed with all the poor comments made. The combination of DoYoSpain and Record Car Rentals is deadly. Do not under any circumstances use either of the above companies. After a frustating few weeks I have given up on getting anywhere with either of the above. They cannot be contacted and if you find a phone number you think might work...it rings and then it is picked up and put down in quick order. If you have used them and are trying to get some...

I'm obviously joining a long list of travellers who had the same experience with this company! Total rip off? Yes!

We questioned the amounts like everyone ahead of us had- but what was the point? We needed the car... (read more)

Totally agree! Long, long queue and complete rip-off and not even pleasant when we took car back cos we were told that if the car was not left in exactly the right place they would charge us extra!!! Would like to have told them what we thought but as they had my credit card details I thought better of it. Booked them through Alpharooms and have sent them a letter complaining but not sure if they'll do anything about it, i.e. stop using that company.

We booked a car for our holiday in Mallorca through Holiday Autos, with the end provider turning out to be Record Go Car Hire, and it seemed a great deal - approx £82 for the week plus £20 for additional excess payment insurance. The nightmare began when we arrived at the desk in the airport and had to join a long queue for 45 mins before being served.

Agree with Philip4010. Used RECORD GO October 2012. Tragic beyond words. Not only us but every single other customer I witnessed in the HOURS I was dealing with them had MAJOR PROBLEMS. If you're offered a car for free do not take it. If they pay you to take a car don't take it. Seriously they're that bad. I rarely bother to write reviews but these clowns are so bad folk should be warned.

Avoid this Company like the Plague You book your 'Bargain Car' and, because it's a 'Special Price' you pay up front. Then you queue for an hour and a half at Record Go in Malaga and are told you need to either leave a €500 deposit or pay €63 for "insurance to cover accidental damage" Not wanting to risk €500 against someone breaking your headlight you pay up. Next trick is "bring the car back empty (of fuel). So your bargain just turned into €103 + € 151 = €254. I used less that... (read more)
