Bargain Rental Cars Reviews

Easy to book Pickup was simple with no drama Car was as expected. Return was also simple and quick with no hidden agendas Staff excellent to work with. Pick up and drop off from airport good

The staff were very pleasant and pick up and drop off service was excellent

Excellent staff that helped get me on my way and easy drop off procedure

I chose BRC because they were offering a less expensive option using slightly older vehicles. The vehicle we received was in excellent condition, clean and tidy. Although we only booked the vehicle for a few days we then found we needed to extend the rental on the same vehicle by extra days. We found BRC very accommodating enabling us to extend the rental by phone call. We would definitely use BRC again.

They were so helpful - on the phone (when my flight to Wellington was cancelled) and at the depot - prompt shuttle service and my car was clean tidy and in great shape - not too old or shabby - pleasant driving experience at a great price - will use again on my next trip home to NZ. Thank you team (They deserve a better depot at Wellington)!

Excellent service on phone and on site..got a seniors discount..had a choice of vehicles and easy to change original option

Very efficient to pick up and drop off car. Everything was explained in detail. Cheaper than others car rentals, but service is excellent.

Easy to deal with company with good communication.

Great customer service, warm welcoming from pickup, and right throughout! Easy fast and efficient, which is what was needed on such a cold windy day

Smooth process, everything went according to plan, from pickup at the airport to being transferred to the airport again the next day.

BRC Auckland Airport Pick-up and drop-off was a breeze, the people were friendly and accommodating, with fast service to and from the airport. All in all, great value for your dollar. **Pay for the top insurance** it's not that expensive and saved me $1000 for a stone chip.

Friendly staff, the car was indeed a bargain and just what I needed for my week in Auckland. I will use them again!

Great pick up and drop off service from Wellington airport. Good value car. All in all a great experience from start to finish.

This is the first time for a few years that I have rented a vehicle to travel out of Christchurch and Bargain Rental Cars was a perfect choice for me. Everything went well and the vehicle proved to be a great choice and was comfortable and economical. No issues really and I enjoyed the trip. The staff, both on the phone and in person were really helpful and friendly. I don't normally recommend businesses ti others but in this case I feel very comfortable doing so. If you need a good rental car at a great price without any hassles, in my opinion Bargain Rental Cars are an excellent choice.

I wouldn’t recommend this rental company to anyone under 25. We booked through a third party (carjet, our mistake) through which we purchased platinum insurance. However, when we picked up the car we were told that our insurance we’d purchased through the third party wasn’t valid due to us being under 25, and that we had to purchase insurance with bargain rental car directly. We were informed that the only insurance policy we were able to purchase (again due to being under 25) was their gold insurance policy at 20 dollars a day, which covered most potential incidents- including windscreen damage. We were happy to purchase this and did so. Unfortunately whilst driving, a passing truck kicked up a rock, cracking the windscreen. Believing this would be covered by our “gold” insurance policy, we informed BRC of this immediately- only to be told by them that we had actually been sold their “comprehensive” insurance policy- a specific policy for under 25’s that doesn’t cover windscreen damage (or anything else seemingly). At absolutely no point were we informed of their comprehensive insurance policy- which is conveniently also priced at 20 dollars a day. In fact, we had been advised by multiple employees that we could only purchase their gold insurance policy given our age. When we did return the car and explain the situation (and which insurance policy we were misinformed that we had purchased), the employees were very polite and patient, but did still charge us the 950 dollars excess for the windscreen damage, and advised us that we should attempt to claim the cost of the windscreen repair on the insurance we’d purchased through the third party we’d booked through - despite us having been told that this insurance was not valid given our age. Ultimately I don’t think BRC is necessarily a scam, but we were 100% misinformed by the employee that sold us the “gold” insurance, and therefore should not have had to pay for the windscreen damage. I just hope our experience will prevent other young travellers from also being misled and ending up in the same situation.

Lots of fake 5 star. Reviews here. The first car offered, stank of urine. Only other car available wasn't much better smelling. Only after driving off, I realised the car would not be considered road worthy. Fogged headlight, non functioning side mirror adjustment, no water in windscreen wiper reservoir. The key fob failed to lock the car more than half the time. Rust patches and a missing hubcap plus a handwritten notice on the windscreen "STOLEN RECOVERED VEHICLE", was disappointing. They stung me for a 3mm stone chip $1290. Didn't notice it when I picked up the car, because they parked it in the dark, but inspected on drop off in bright light. Rather than fix the the list of issues, they want me to waste my time by contacting them, when all that's needed is to actually check the car themselves.

Great little car and great service from the friendly staff. Will definitely use again😁

Corbin and Eric at the Christchurch Hornby branch were super helpful. Right from the get go phoning in to navigating an upgrade to dropping back off their service was awesome. They carefully listened to us, answered our questions, came up with a great solution. They were thoroughly pleasant and efficient along the way.

Competitive price for a reliable vehicle.

Harry and Navya was incredibly people and helps us a lot thx guys!
