I was very happy with my rental experience from Bargain Car rentals.Price was reasonable,pickup and drop off was convenient.I was a bit annoyed with being asked about damage to vehicle which was on the the pre pickup inspection.Also the employer said I had returned the vehicle with a flat battery??? Well how did I get it there?? He was trying to start the vehicle whilst not sitting in the driver's seat so it wouldn't start.

Third party cover if taken up at time of booking through one of our agents does differ from taking the cover directly with us and is handled with different terms and conditions.
We do work with our third parties/agents where we can to make sure that information is advised as clearly as possible during the booking process, but I do apologise as it sounds like there is still room to improve here.
Fast and easy service with no hiccups

Good car except the inside of the front windscreen was not cleaned. Had to wipe it down myself. Also no hand over instructions on how to start or put the car in gear.

Good Value and an easy process…
On line booking and pre-check in was easy and made the car collection process quick and simple. Car return was just as quick and easy. The car provided, a GWM Haval, was almost new, as have been all the cars I have rented from Bargain, but I didn't like it as much as other cars I have rented. Nothing mechanically wrong with it.
The Darwin city site that I collected the car from was a bit tired and might turn off prospective renters.

We appreciate your positive feedback on our online booking and car collection process. We're also grateful for your honest comments about the Darwin city site and will take them into consideration.
Lack of before and after hours return service!
The staff were friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the rental process. The car was in excellent condition, and I had no issues with it at all.
The only downside was the lack of a before-hours or after-hours return service. I needed to return the car before 8:00 am, but this wasn’t possible, which was quite inconvenient. As someone who travels frequently, having flexible pick-up and drop-off options is something I really value, so offering these services would greatly improve the overall customer experience.

We're delighted to hear that our staff were friendly and helpful, and that you found the car to be in excellent condition. We understand your frustration regarding the limited return hours and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
As a part of offering Bargain prices, there are some services that the dearer rental companies will offer that aren't available through us, because using those would affect the prices we can offer. We're sorry if that process didn't work for you.
