Extremely smooth process

I had to return my work vehicle due to a change in employment and did not fancy purchasing a used vehicle. I searched leasing companies online snd came across icarlease and also read some of the reviews here. I must say that Vik was exceptional and handled my concerns with extreme kindness and patience as I was quite worried about the credit check. Rest assured everything went perfectly and 2 weeks after my initial enquiry I had a new skoda octavia delivered. A special shootout to colin from Listers who delivered the vehicle. He was very knowledgeable and showed every feature of the vehicle. All round fantastic service and highly recommended.

Hi Diljit, Thanks for taking the time to leave this.

Really pleased to hear everything went smoothly from start to finish, and that Vik was able to put your mind at ease and guide you through the process. We know it can feel a bit daunting at times, especially with things like credit checks, so it’s great to know you felt looked after.

Big thanks as well for the shoutout to Colin – sounds like he did a great job on handover.

Most of all though, enjoy your new Octavia!

Great service from Vik at iCarLease

Vik at icarlease demonstrated outstanding professionalism, dedication, and efficiency throughout the process of assisting me with the acquisition of a leased vehicle. He has deep knowledge of the leasing process, and combined with his proactive communication style, made the experience seamless and stress free.

From the beginning I found Vik was responsive, detail oriented, and exceptionally thorough. He clearly explained the steps, answered all my questions with clarity and patience, and provided timely updates.

What sets Vik apart is not just his technical knowledge, but his genuine commitment to customer satisfaction. He went above and beyond to ensure things were completed smoothly, even anticipating potential issues before they arose and resolving them with professionalism and care.

Vik is a true asset to icarlease, and his exceptional service deserves the highest recognition. He made what could have been a tedious process feel completely effortless.

Avoid iCarLease at all costs!

If I could give zero stars, I would. My experience with iCarLease has been nothing short of a nightmare, filled with false promises, poor communication, and financial losses due to their incompetence.

I leased a Polestar 4, and one of my clear requirements was that it had the Pilot Pack included. I repeatedly confirmed this with iCarLease before signing the contract, and they assured me it was part of the deal. When the car was delivered, the Pilot Pack was missing, making it completely different from what I agreed to.

I immediately raised the issue and attempted to reject the vehicle, but instead of addressing the problem properly, iCarLease dragged their feet for months. Despite my clear attempts to return the car, they failed to take the necessary steps, leaving me stuck with a vehicle I never agreed to lease. Their lack of urgency and unwillingness to take responsibility meant that I was forced to keep paying for a car I did not want.

After endless chasing and being ignored for long periods by iCarLease, Arval (the actual lease provider) finally agreed to accept the car’s rejection and refund my initial rental. However, I was still charged £549.38 for a monthly payment covering a period when I was actively trying to return the car. Arval confirmed that this was due to iCarLease’s failure to act in a reasonable timeframe, but iCarLease has so far refused to reimburse me.

This company is a complete joke—they are happy to take your money but disappear when there’s a problem. Their dishonesty, lack of communication, and failure to resolve issues in a timely manner have caused me financial loss and unnecessary stress.

Vik (who I have been dealing with since day one) has been apologetic and has tried to help but his manager, Matthew Rothwell, has been the complete opposite! He even blocked my emails, meaning all communication had to go through Vik!

If you’re thinking of leasing a car through iCarLease—don’t. There are plenty of reputable leasing companies out there who won’t leave you out of pocket due to their own incompetence.

We’re genuinely sorry that your experience with us wasn’t as smooth as it should have been. Unfortunately, in today’s world, unless a customer gets everything they demand, a one-star review seems inevitable.

An honest mistake was made, and when you flagged that the wrong car had been delivered, we took full responsibility and worked with you to find a resolution. Initially, you offered to keep the car if compensation was provided. We acknowledged this and offered £1,500, which was the full cost of the missing Pilot Pack. However, you requested £6,500, which was far beyond what was reasonable. Given this, the only viable option was to proceed with returning the vehicle.

It’s also important to note that during this time, you had full use of the vehicle. When the issue was first raised, you initially agreed to keep the car with compensation but later changed your mind and chose to reject it. Given that you had possession and use of the vehicle throughout, it’s perfectly reasonable for charges to apply for that period.

As for the claim that your emails were blocked—this simply isn’t true. You had a dedicated point of contact in Vik, who remained available throughout the process to assist you.

This is the first time we’ve encountered a situation like this, and we appreciate the patience you had while it was resolved. We regret that we couldn’t get it right for you this time and wish you all the best with your next car purchase.

Outstanding service

I recently leased a car with the help of Vik and Luke, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. They were professional, helpful, and incredibly friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free.

Their attention to detail and genuine care for finding the best option for me really stood out. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to lease a car.

Thank you, Vik and Luke, for making this such a positive experience!

Polite, patient and helpful people to deal with

I found all the staff to be helpful, courteous and supportive. Shout out to Vik for his patience with a somewhat ' non-standard' application. The detail required regarding the credit agreement was a bit painful, but both the beginning and end bits were seamless and we are delighted with the car. Thank you all very much!

My wife and I are both in our sixties

My wife and I are both in our sixties, and technology as past us by, we have never gone down the car lease route before, we had numerous worries and questions that we were concerned about, however a gentleman named Craig Sutton from icarlease. co.uk. explained everything to us , in a polite and respectful manner, he also stayed in contact with us throughout all the process, I’m sure if it was not for Craig’s knowledge and reassurance we would not have gone through this, my wife is over the moon with her new car, and we would certainly give this company our business again.👍

All Good in the end

Very easy to deal with initially but process stalled a bit leading upto signing hire agreement and delivery date, I believe they were having issues and had a backlog to process. An email to enquire what was happening was met with a quick response and we had the car a few days later. Overall we're happy with the service from the staff and absolutely delighted with the car. Would use icarlease again without hesitation

Excellent experience with icarlease - Luke Walker was extremely helpful, professional and responsive. He found me a car to the exact spec I wanted for the right budget and in a shorter timeframe than originally thought. He answered all my silly questions and helped with a smooth and easy delivery.
