Easirent at Heathrow is based in a container in the corner of a parking lot. No direct pick up from Terminals, you have to catch a hotel hopping bus. Also, cost advertised is only the car rental. Insurance and damage waiver coverage are extras which really ramps up the price. They may be backed by Fiat (they say) and operate through Pricecom (an American outfit) but their set up is second rate, although in the end the car we had was good, met our needs but was overpriced.

We never got the rental. They closed at the appointed pick up time.

Poor|May 2022

They refused to honour the booking, claiming that the central system that sends out booking confirmations is nothing to do with the branch. Their only solution was to offer to loan me a different car at a much more expensive price. They also would not let me speak to anyone else in the branch to complain.
