Excellent friendly service. Baby seat fitted correctly. You would be surprised how many companies fit it the wrong way round. Great car. Good value. Lots of space. Looking forward to some travelling.

Love this Tassie company?

We have hired from this company many times and always find their prices to be the best, cars are always spot on, clean, not old and the process is always very easy. The biggest thing is we are Tasmanian and this is a Tasmanian company. Why wouldn’t we give our money to them, as opposed to one of the big international companies. We had a truck for one day to move some furniture.

We will always hire from this company whenever book a hire car in Australia as they have a big presence in every state. I highly recommend this company? Plus, they reward you if you are a returning customer.

What a great experience

I wasn’t looking forward in hiring a car as the last experience in another hire car company made me sorry I asked but at bargain cars from the start at reception the lady couldn’t have been more pleasant and helpful she just made the whole experience of hiring a car brilliant, I think I answered three questions and off I went. The young lady just made our holiday within a holiday very pleasant.

Our Bargain Car experience.

The car was very suitable for our needs and was economical to run and good value to hire.The only problem we had was trying to make phone contact to clarify the return details as we were due at the airport at 7 am and the office didn’t open until 7 am. Eventually the call was returned and we returned the car and were transported to the airport with time to spare.Well done Bargain cars.

Hi Erin,

It should always feel easy to get on the road with a great car, and we really appreciate your kind words.

No flexibility during rental contract

The vehicle itself was good but the customer service during the time we had the vehicle was shocking, there was none. Good customer service is everything & when there is none I would be reluctant to use the same company again.

Car that was given to us broke down on the 2nd day of our trip, in the middle of an intersection in Brisbane. Help line directs you straight to RACQ, which then towed the car to Brisbane Airport office.
Employees at Brisbane Airport office were swift with the swapping over of the cars, however employee at Gold Coast Airport was rude when returning the car.
Overall online customer service has been atrocious at resolving the matter.
Wouldn’t recommend.

Sorry to hear your interaction with our team wasn’t a positive one. That’s not the experience we want for our customers, and we’ll be following this up with the team.

Staff ok but system difficult to navigate to book from abroad

Awful experience- staff were as helpful as they could be but I was trying to book a car for a month from Spain, for our holiday in Cairns Australia, and they advertise a price match. I tried to email the company but they have a rule that you have to phone: my telephone package would not enable me to phone so I asked if it could be done via email. I spoke to lots of different people via email and it was a complete waste of time. I eventually managed to find out I could add some credit and called them- I put €10 and it all went on hold waiting to be answered. You could request a call back but experience tells me these rarely work. Ended up booking with someone else as it was all too irritating and stressful.

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about the frustrating and stressful experience you had trying to book a car for your holiday in Cairns. We understand how difficult it can be to coordinate from overseas.

We apologise for the issues with our price match policy requiring a phone call and for the lack of support you received via email. Unfortunately, that is our price match policy, but this could be looked at as something that requires change, because are disappointed that this led you to book with a competitor.

We are taking your feedback seriously and will be reviewing our policies and communication methods to make them more accessible and less stressful for our international customers.

A reliable and helpful car hire company

I have hired cars from Bargain Car Rentals several times from different localities in Australia. I always find the service to be good, helpful and reliable. It is not as expensive as some car hire companies. The cars have always been sound. The company allows some travel on well-maintained public gravel roads which is very helpful when visiting scenic parks and reserves.

Excellent service and smooth experience from start to finish. The booking process was easy, the car was clean and well-maintained, and pickup/drop-off was quick with no hassle. Staff were professional, friendly, and very helpful. Great value for money — I’ll definitely hire from here again and recommend them to others

Experience at Bargain Car Rentals…

We were served at the Bargain Car Rentals at Melbourne and Tigun looked after us and he was a very knowledgeable and helpful customer service rep. He gave us options, showed us he genuinely cared about providing top service, I have always found that Bargain Car Rentals have people that lead the way in servicing customers well

Bargain price, quality service

Such a straight forward process and at the right price. They were able to accommodate us last minute and I was really impressed with the service. The car was like new, reliable and fuel efficient. Returning the car was a breeze. I will definitely be booking with them again.

Good price

Easy to book and pick up. Quite busy when we arrived so a bit of a short wait. I unintentionally had booked through a third party (no idea I had) so was a bit confusing with payment.
