Poor Instructions at Airport to find Shuttle
There was no signposting at the airport on arrivals and the instructions given to find the shuttle pick up, took us round in circles. We were unable to connect to a human on the customer service phone number we were given. In the end we had to spend $30 on an uber to get to the rental pick up point.

It is unfortunate that the shuttle instructions you were provided weren't sufficient. We unfortunately have no control over the signposting at the airport, but we do have a map for each location on our website showing exactly where the pick-up is.

We're so pleased you found our service convenient and affordable. We appreciate your feedback regarding the airport drop-off and will certainly take it into consideration for future improvements. Thank you for your great review!
I will never rent a car again!
At the beginning very nice and cheap, but than they are charging expense that you haven’t done!

We're sorry that there have been issues with post-rental charges. Unfortunately, it does appear that there is a valid post-rental charge due to the vehicle breaking down from a lack of fuel, so those post rental charges will stand.
I rented a car for more than two…
I rented a car for more than two months. The staff are friendly, competent and efficient. The rental prices are great. They take care of tolls. The admin fee is fair. They were flexible with my return time which I had to keep extending. I’d recommend Bargain Car Rentals.

Airport pickup was convenient
Airport pickup was convenient, but the after-hours return process was poorly organised with no designated parking. I received no confirmation that the car had been returned and was later charged several unexplained debits. Very disappointing communication and lack of transparency.

Thank you for adding your feedback!
While if necessary we can take out of hours drop offs for our vehicles it is not something we provision for due to our bookings only being booked for the office hours meaning our staff can discuss anything necessary with you on return.
After a return of the vehicle we do operate on a no news is good news basis, if you do not hear from us everything has been logged and would proceed as planned.
Any charges that do come through from us are always accompanied with an invoice/receipt that heads out to the email address we have on file, your booking being in Sydney that may have been for toll roads that were used during your booking and those do sometimes end up in your spam/junk folder.
If you have any queries specific to your booking don't hesitate to reach out with some booking details to info@bargaincarrentals.com.au

Everything was easy from beginning to end. Started with online booking, then pick up at airport, signing out the car and returning the car. Everything was seamless.

Easy to pickup and shuttle service great.
Easy to pickup, shuttle driver courteous. Fast drop off and shuttle back to airport. Price definitely worth the extra step of getting their shuttle to the office outside the airport.

Great service, value and vehicle
Both the service and the vehicle were great. We booked a luxury standard size SUV and we were assigned with a brand new Mercedes Benz GLB. It just cost us AUD$230. Great deal! We had a great journey.

It's budget
It's budget, so out of airport real estate, but the staff made the experience a treasure with excellent support within their budget framework. They went the extra mile.

Happy with Bargain Car Rentals
Very happy with Bargain Car Rentals Australia in Sydney and with their service and help. They explain everything well and help you when needed. The pick-up from the airport is also a good service.
And above all the car was very suitable and good.

Great friendly staff with great prices, but unfortunately
Great friendly staff with great prices. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend if you want the ease of pick up and drop offs at the airport. The base is located out of the Sydney airport but they provide a free shuttle. It became a nightmare at drop off before hours as we have a 7 month old. Having to arrange a taxi with an infant car seat costed us more than anticipated and would have been cheaper to have booked a car rental AT the airport.

Returning customer, decent car rental option
Am a returning customer for Bargain Car Rentals Australia. All things considered, they offer a decent car rental option for anyone who does not insist on car pick-up or drop-off at airport.
