Review summary

Hire Me Vehicle Rentals receives a mixed response from customers, highlighting both commendable service and significant issues. Many reviewers praise the helpful and polite staff, noting that the vehicles are often clean and well-maintained, with competitive rates. Positive experiences include seamless rental processes and exceptional customer service, particularly at the Merthyr branch. However, a substantial number of complaints focus on unexpected fees and poor communication, with customers reporting inflated charges and difficulties in receiving refunds. Instances of unavailability of reserved vehicles and lack of accountability for damages also contribute to dissatisfaction. Overall, while some customers enjoy a great rental experience, others strongly advise against using the service due to these recurring issues.

Very reliable and great to deal with.

We had an outstanding experience with Hire Me Vehicle Hire Cardiff! We rented a 9-seater Ford Tourneo for 14 days, and the vehicle was immaculate, comfortable, and drove perfectly. We collected the van at the Merthyr branch and dropped back to the Cardiff branch. Daniel and Humza were fantastic to deal with, offering exceptional customer service that made the entire process seamless and stress-free. The team’s professionalism and friendly approach stood out, and their quick response to queries was much appreciated. Having two convenient locations made pickup and drop-off a breeze, and the pricing was very competitive compared to other hire companies. We also appreciated the thorough vehicle checks and clear communication, ensuring we felt confident throughout our rental period. Will definitely use again. I highly recommend Hire Me Vehicle Hire for anyone seeking reliable, top-notch vehicle hire in Cardiff 👍🏻!

Left Vans Cause Fines for Motorists

Leave their vans parked on bridges of M4 motorway which are then used to conceal mobile speed cameras. Crude attempt at advertising costs multiple motorists fines. (Van on bridge eastbound between junction 34 and 33 M4).

Extortionate repair costings

Rented a vehicle from them for a trip away. Unfortunately, there was a small amount of damage caused (scratches and a bump) that could easily be sorted. We were charged am extortionate amount for this (£1000) Be careful renting from these.

We rented a vehicle for a weekend and unfortunately we had a small bump on the plastic rear bumper. Their response is to charge £1000. The damage does match the charge, be sure to consider very high charges if anything goes wrong with your rental.

Rented a vehicle from this company and when we did a small amount of damage to the vehicle (scratches and a small bump)they charged us £1000. No proof that they were going to fix the damage. Would be careful if you plan hiring from them.

Top quality service & value for money.

From initial enquiry contact to vehicle collection & return the process was quick, easy and extremely good value for money. The sales agent (Michell) was courteous, helpful and ensured the hire was a seemless process. Collection of the vehicle including all paperwork took less than 30mins. I would highly recommend this company and will use them again if the need arises.

Exceptional Customer Service

I had lost the key to the van around 8.30 on a sunday morning of all days! I called the Hire Me office not expecting the call to be answered and the owner of the company (Shahid) answered the phone. I explained the situation and he allowed me to go and collect a replacement key subject to a deposit which I was happy to pay. The van was due back at 9 a.m. I returned it at 10.15 a.m.and expected to have to pay for another days hire. Under the circumstances, Shahid kindly waived the additional days hire. I really didnt expect this kind of empathy and understanding from a modern day large outfit like Hire Me. Shahid, you are a true gentleman and I just wanted to say thank you as well as letting your customers know that you run an excellent business! Best Wishes and every success for the future. Your trusted customer. Paul
