Simple rental process

Our account opening went really well. It was a simple process.

The vehicle rented to us came in a terrible condition (scratches/dents etc)

We use Northgate Basildon to look after our fleet needs. The Workshop Administrator there, Christina H, always goes above and beyond to ensure that our vehicles are serviced and MOT'd on time. Where she really shines is when we have unforeseen issues. As our business operates nationwide, she will liaise with the branch local to where we are working to facilitate a resolution as soon as possible. Cheers Christina!!!

Had an amazing experience from the start,
Erwin checked me in digitally, Johan took care of my Van.
I was offered a great selection of hot drinks, they even put on BBC to watch World Cup.
Regular updates were given and when they realised it will take a bit of time to sort my issue out , I was given directions to local eateries.

Guys were just energetic and with it.
Will only be booking my service here.

Customer service and management

I would like to thank the Basildon Team for the fantastic support and service over the last couple of months. As long standing business customer with a fleet of 30 vans we have had some testing challenges recently which the Basildon Team has risen too, and taken away some logistical pain. Well Done and special thanks to Christina, Emily and Chloe.
