Heavy sales pitch on the insurance…
Heavy sales pitch on the insurance which I didn't need or want but ended up forking out another $800. I only drove the car twice in 8 days! Great car though cute little hybrid.

We're very sorry that the conversation at the depot was confusing. We are required to inform our customers of any risks they're taking, so regarding the third-party insurance, this product is not related to Bargain Car Rentals, and this is where the confusion lies. It cannot reduce your excess, and if an accident occurs, all excesses and fees are payable to us.
You can then file a claim to be reimbursed through the third-party insurance provider. We do then have to advise you of the conditions of the basic level of coverage, so you're aware of what you could be paying, to be reimbursed at a later date.
Excellent customer service.

A great car for a great price
A great car for a great price. However wait times for shuttle and 7 am office hour for return are not great.

Reply from Bargain Car Rentals Australia - Melbourne Airport
We're so pleased you found the car and price great! We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the shuttle wait times. Regarding out return times, part of how we keep costs down is by limiting pick-up and return to our opening hours.

Easy Drop off
Easy drop off car. Good friendly shuttle drivers. Easy to go to Melbourne Airport but no wire connection to Apple car play information at pick up. Poor telephone service. No individual landline connection to branches just in case for emergency. I can add more pros and cons but this is enough now.
