This company is shameful . They have cancelled my reservation 12 days prior to Christmas ! Draw people in , persuade them to part with even more money and then ditch you at the last minute . There is NO way of contacting them and they claim the lines are permanently too busy !! I rented out my property over the Christmas period and I am now homeless . I WILL attend each of the addresses I have for them and I WILL remove goods to the value of what they owe and more to compensate me for my… Read Full Review

Do not use you will be asking for your deposit back for months with no customers service. They won’t answer the phone unless you are booking. On line chat is the only way and even then if you show frustration they will not chat. I had to send over 15 emails no reply. A letter saying if I don’t get my money back I will be taking them to Court. Involved Trading Standards and Citizens Advice. As well as Visa disputes with bank. OMG i cannot believe how much frustration this has cause us… Read Full Review

How did you get on with that? I am in a similar situation so it would be good to know what to expect! As the company is now in administration, the administrators have a duty to investigate the affairs of the company and the directors. The administrators are Anthony Batty & Co. Do you think it would be appropriate to contact them?

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. Pay a little more & go elsewhere. This company caused so much anger and frustration, added to HOURS of trying to resolve issues because they genuinely do not care. I have been a company customer services director for 3 companies and simply cannot understand their blind arrogance and inept approach toward "customers". They get 1 star because you cannot give 0. The constant add-ons, inability to communicate with them after booking by anything but "chat: where they keep… Read Full Review

The deal of £50/night was too good to be true and that will stick with me. Hard sales follow with emails daily - stuff that should be included were not, camper was poorly maintained and we had to take lots of photos. Now they claim the deposit has been returned but it hasn't, the live chat is close to useless and they wont supply any evidence from their side that the payment has been refunded. No telephone number (that should have rung my warning bells - but hey ho, I will learn in… Read Full Review

Not only would I not recommend to a friend, I wouldn't wish them on my enemy. Company couldn't be more helpful when we were enquiring on phone from Australia. The 'extras' packs they sign you up for after you book (and you book assuming basics like kitchen gear, power cable and hose are included), are totally pointless. They are included in the hire anyway; they aren't going to bother removing bike racks, dishes the between hires. We collect vehicle. Shabby to say the least, and dirty. No water… Read Full Review

This company from beginning to end have many many hidden charges. If you are desperate and you do end up having to hire a vehicle from them READ THE SMALL PRINT. They take about 2 months to return your deposit of £1,265.00 (i'm still waiting) and then they try to make additional charges from the deposit. Although when I returned the vehicle it was inspected and I was told everything was fine. When you ask them what these charges are for apparently it can take up to 5 days for them to respond… Read Full Review

AVOID MOTORHOMEHIRE.UK.COM... If you're happy to give them your deposit without chance of getting it back, crack on! The van was heavily used (battered up really). After booking, we came across awful reviews which made us really nervous about hiring. We took all the photos of before and after our hire so they couldn't stitch us up for damage and keep our £250. We looked after that van as if it were our own and cleaned it top too bottom before taking it back. Over a month later and they're… Read Full Review

My husband booked this motorhome for a week to go to a festival we were talked into paying £1265 on which was for the deposit and insurance which made the booking cheaper. we returned the motorhome in the same condition as we hired it and sat back and waited for our deposit which we believed was 28 days. We were then informed it was 28 working days after the return of the vehicle, this was not great but it did state it in there terms and conditions 28 working days have passed and still no… Read Full Review

Constantly sending mails with offer. Decided to book and every time I got to the payment page I was told they didn't have any availability, despite the fact the page said there was availability guarantee. When I rang and questioned I was made to feel there wasn't an issue. The customer service was poor and the staff rude. Apparently I should be wiling to trace to Cambridge to collect a motorhome when I live in North Wales! The website told me for a week solid Manchester had availability. Joke… Read Full Review

Booked and paid £200 for motorhome hire. Unfortunatly, i had to cancel 36 hrs later. The company kept the entire amount to cover admin fees! It was over a weekend that i cancelled and there is no way of contacting them. Amazingly, vehicle hire companies are exempt from cooling off periods and are not obliged to refund any money at all. They were not in the slightest bit interested when contacted and showed not a glimmer of customer service. I booked through Motorhome Express but they use… Read Full Review

To update, the company was sold and is now registered as Vaaroom. Motorholme was the previous name to Hire Booking Centre, who are owned by Unbeatablehire, who are being considered the same as Motorhomehire Uk by the Administration company. This compnay is such a mess and trading under so many different names. How did you get on with your refund?
I am in a similar situation, it would be good to know what to expect! Have you had your money back? As the company is now in administration, the administrators have a duty to investigate the affairs of the company and the directors. The administrators are Anthony Batty & Co. Do you think it would be appropriate to contact them?
