Dear Neil,

Thank you for your feedback.

Please note that the security deposit release can take up to 30 days after the end of the rental, as the timing depends on several factors, including the release schedule of the rental agency’s bank as well as your own bank’s processing times.

If the deposit has still not been released back to your account after this timeframe, please kindly contact us at info@orbitcarhire.com, and our team will be happy to look into this for you.

Kind regards,

Accepts no responsibility over its partners misconduct. RentalCover is one who lied to me and didn't refund my cancellation fee that at first they said: "A refund has been processed, and you can expect the amount of 49.60 GBP to be reflected in your account within 25 business days."

Dear Chin,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your cancellation request.

However, we believe there may be some misunderstanding regarding the refund process. According to our records, your reservation was scheduled for vehicle collection on 29 March. We then received your request to cancel the booking on 3 May, after the scheduled pick-up date had already passed, as the reservation had been made for the wrong location.

As outlined in the Terms and Conditions agreed to at the time of booking, cancellations made less than 48 hours before the scheduled pick-up time are non-refundable, and once the pick-up date has passed, the prepaid booking amount cannot be refunded.

We believe the message you received from Rental Cover, our insurance partner, referred only to the cancellation of the insurance policy itself and may have been generated automatically. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the refund of the car rental reservation, as the cancellation request was submitted after the pick-up date.

We understand this is not the outcome you had hoped for, but we are required to apply the agreed booking terms consistently to all reservations.

Kind regards,
Orbit Car Hire Team
