Amazing staff member

The blond lady Zhana (I think it’s her name) has been the nicest and cutest person. She accompanied us the best way possible.
The process was really easy and 100% clean as we know sometimes it might be tricky with other agencies. No additional sales has been tried to be done. I recommend 100%.

The shuttle from the Airport to the Head office not working as per schedule. Me and my family has been waiting 30 min at 35' before arriving. Once it came the driver ask me for my name if is on the list?! Was not there, so we have to wait another 30 mins before next one arrived. Same situation we have winter time at -5'.

Dear Ivan,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the situation made you feel inconvenienced.

During the peak summer season, there can be periods of increased passenger volume, which may lead to temporary shuttle delays. Our shuttle service is scheduled to operate approximately every 10–15 minutes.

If you are unable to locate the shuttle or your name cannot be found on the list, please contact our 24/7 call centre. Our colleagues will be happy to assist you and provide the necessary guidance.

We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide you with a smoother experience next time.

Best regards,

The last and final time !!!

I booked a car and when I arrived at the old airport to collect it ,they left from the office just a minutes ago. Well known trick . Wait for them ,try to call them ... Nothing!!!
That was my last experience with them ,and will be the final too.
Also a friend of mine used their services and they try to charge him extra money when he go to collect the car. Hidden taxes etc..

Nice small car

Nice small car, low consumption.
Not the newest, but it was perfectly fine for us two to drive around the entire country of Bulgaria for 6 days.
Paid for full protection so we wouldn’t worry about anything.
All perfect!!

Customer care non existent in Sofia main office

I have been using the company for many years and have always had fantastic experience until this rental from their Sofia office. The lack of courtesy and customer care displayed by “Ivan Ivanov”- no doubt not his real name was appalling. Having had to also contact the call centre twice and lack of care and support was totally flabbergasting. For context- my mother had emergency brain tumour surgery but asking for change in plans and some consideration in those tough times was too much to ask.
Having said all that when I dropped the car off in Varna and paid 190 euros for the privilege, the staff there couldn’t have done more for me and my kids. Goes to show it is all down to the customer facing staff.
Going forward I will be avoiding Sofia at all costs and definitely continue using Varna and Burgas. It is a shame that the actions of one office has tainted my experience with otherwise decent company.

Dear Julianna,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
We are genuinely sorry that your recent rental did not meet your expectations.

We have carefully reviewed the points you have raised both in your review, and in the email you have sent us.

We understand your disappointment with the vehicle's cosmetic condition. However, vehicles may remain in service when cosmetic marks do not affect their safety or roadworthiness especially during the peak summer season. An alternative vehicle could have been arranged, but this would have required approximately three hours to prepare, which would understandably not have been a practical solution in your circumstances.

We are equally concerned about the way you felt you were treated by our Sofia team and call center. Courtesy, empathy and a willingness to assist are standards we expect from all our colleagues. Your feedback has been shared with the relevant management team, and measures will be taken immediately to prevent such situations in the future.

The €190 one-way rental fee is a standard charge for returning the vehicle in Varna rather than Sofia, as the vehicle then needs to be relocated back to its original location, creating additional operational costs. In consideration of your circumstances, we did not charge the separate €60 amendment fee that normally applies to a last-minute change.

Nevertheless, we are very pleased to hear that our colleagues in Varna and Burgas provided you and your children with the care and assistance you needed. We will make sure your kind words are shared with those teams.

We sincerely regret that this experience has affected your overall impression of our company. We value your many years of trust in Top Rent A Car and hope we will have the opportunity to restore your confidence.

Best Regards,
Top Rent A Car

The more you pay, the more issues you have

1) Battery was died on gas station. I found person who helped me start engine by his car. Yes battery was changed on next day, but in general experience about that situation was not ok.
2) Also headlight very dark. We realise it only when night started but we had to drive home anyway.
3) Also drive assistant, lane holder and other electronic just died right in a middle of trip.

Yes we were able to reach destinations, but it was very bad experience for price of this vw passat. Previously we rent other budget cars and everything was good, but this time we paid more and had a lot of throubles

Dear Mr. Kozlov,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

We are truly sorry to hear that your experience with the VW Passat did not meet your expectations, especially given the issues you encountered during your rental. We fully understand how frustrating and inconvenient it must have been to experience these problems.

Once we received a signal regarding the battery issue, we did everything possible to assist you as quickly and efficiently as we could, including arranging for the battery to be replaced the following day. Nevertheless, we understand that having to deal with such an issue in the first place negatively affected your overall experience.

We appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention, as this feedback gives us the opportunity to investigate the issues mentioned and take the necessary steps to improve the condition and reliability of our vehicles.

We understand your disappointment, particularly as you expected a better experience after choosing a higher-class vehicle. Please accept our sincere apologies that your rental did not provide the level of comfort and reliability you expected from us.

Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us identify areas where we can improve our service and prevent similar situations in the future.

Best Regards,
Top Rent A Car
