Thank you for the detailed review. We are glad online check-in saved time, the Leicester team was efficient and courteous, and your car was clean and ready.
Great Value for Money but Congested Site
Staff very friendly and polite. Van was a bit rough from previous hire scrapes and internal wood liner showed it was well used. However my 2 day hire was great value for money, so condition of vehicle was low priority for me. The main problem waa that the site was very congested with vehicles and the route through to the exit was blocked. I had to leave from the site entrance which was hazardous, as there is a blind corner with fast moving traffic. Returning the vehicle, congestion continued and parking was difficult. However staff immediately came to me to check-in the vehicle with no problems. I'd still be happy to hire here again.

Thank you for the balanced review. We’re glad the Leicester team was friendly, the hire was good value and return check-in was prompt. Your description of congestion at the site, especially the blocked exit and difficult parking, raises a practical safety concern; we will share that feedback with the location. We also note your comments on the van’s condition.
AVOID
AVOID - Bad experience with Green Motion Leicester - Charged us £350.00 for a vehicle being late back (by 2 hours) through no fault of our own (accident on the return to the office) feel completely ripped off - Charge was initially reasonable at £120.00 for a days hire so how they can justify three times that is terrible. Another example of a large organisation taking advantage of their customers, after being asked to explain they still cannot give an explanation - three different reasons for the charge - My advice to you, go elsewhere!

Unprompted review
Reply from Green Motion Car and Van Rental - Green Motion Leicester
We’re sorry to hear that a two-hour delay returning the vehicle led to a £350 charge, particularly as you say the delay was caused by an accident on the route. We understand why the differing explanations you received were frustrating. We cannot verify the charges or terms from the review alone. If you would like us to examine the invoice and correspondence, please contact ics@cs.greenmotion.com.
Absolutely brilliant service
Absolutely brilliant service. The two members of staff I spoke with were really helpful and professional. A special thanks to Arjun in particular who made sure I had every bit of information I needed and did his best to meet all my requirements. Would definitely recommend and use again! Thank you so much!
