Hired minibus from this company only for it to go into limp mode after 2 days. Phoned allied to tell them of situation and the advice given was to take van and thrash up the road in 2nd gear to regenerate. As this was not going to work where I was situated at the time and that it is not my responsibility to do this, after a whole day and more than one phone call they sent a local mechanic out and after a thorough investigation told us that it needed the dpf cleaning and a good service. We reported back to allied who eventually sent another minibus out so lost out on two days of holiday, no apology and no refund for those two days, only thing we got was rudeness and tried to blame us for vehicle problems. Would never recommend this company as customer care was awful even when told we had disabled child and elderly woman with us.

I tried to book two weeks ago for today but didn't receive any reply despite sending emails. I needed to plan my move and couldn't wait much longer for a response, but they didn't reply until today. They called me a few minutes ago to confirm my booking for today, but I'm already elsewhere. I'm quite shocked. I wouldn't recommend trusting them!!

Needed a hire car for a week for the first time as my car had to go into a garage.
My personal experience was great with this company. I got to drive a comfortable well looked after fiesta. No problems using it and no problems returning it. Great price!
I would defo use this company in the future, thanks

Absolutely shocking hire company. Minibus went wrong after less than an hour - apart from 1 useless call company didn't answer the phone or call back all weekend includiing "emergency recovery" number.. Left us with an unroadworthy and potentially dangerous vehicle which we couldn't use at destination and even when we suggested we would leave van behind nothing. They should be shut down as putting people's lives at risk potentially.
