I received a very warm welcome which was so appreciated as I was very stressed. The Son of the company was a complete star, polite, helpful, informative and speedy everything was explained to me in easy to follow detail and within a very short space of time I was mobile again! I had the car for 3 days at a much more competitive rate than the other company were offering without having to pay a deposit just credit card security hold, no excessive excess fees and when I returned the car I received an equally friendly welcome and was even driven back to my garage free of charge by a lovely guy whom shared a touching storey with me. I would thoroughly recommend this lovely family run business to anyone and incidentally should you have to extend the duration of your 3 day hire the cost is so reasonable, great company.

I used National for a replacement vehicle when mine was damaged in an accident. The rental was…read moreorganised by, and charged to, my insurance company so I was only expecting basic service. My experience of car rental companies to date had been so so at best. I was stunned that they called me within about 5 minutes of my insurance company approving the rental to me over the phone. They offered to collect me from my house as they knew that my vehicle was not roadworthy and when I got there, they offered me a choice of vehicles. They told me that a set rental had been agreed with my insurance company but that they would liaise with the vehicle repairers and extend my rental as necessary. When I spoke to them on the phone and when they showed me round the vehicle they were incredibly thorough and professional. All car rental companies should be like this.

The Peugeot 3008 was a very comfortable car in like-new condition and we had no issues with it whatsoever. We will rent from them every time we come to England. They are so much better than the large corporate companies.

Excellent service - far exceeded my expectations…read more I hired a van from Gatwick Van Hire on 28.09.18, having picked them at random from an online search. My intial enquiry was dealt with very efficently, and I arrived early on the day of collection to find that the paperwork was ready, the van was ready and I was on the road within 10 minutes. Their Gatwick premises were immaculate, and the hire fleet were in a similar condition - I did not see a vehicle that was over a year old, or other than pristine. Upon return - which was out of hours - the facilities to leave the van and keys was effortless, and I received an email from them early the next day - Sunday - confirming that they were happy with the condition that the van was returned in. I did not have any preconceived ideas of what to expect when hiring a van, however Mercedes / Audi levels of efficency and customer service, and an immaculate hire fleet was far beyond my expectations - and they were the cheapest too. I can't recommend them highly enough! 11 out of 10 stars.

ADVICE: TAKE TONS OF PHOTOS (EVERY ANGLE) AND VIDEO OF THE CAR YOU RENT!!! (You'll read several…read moreother reviews that give this advice based on their experience as well). If you don't document absolutely every possible piece of damage, no matter how small or insignificant, they will try to lay the damage on YOU. After arriving in the UK from the U.S on a 10 hour flight, we took an Enterprise shuttle from outside T-5 to the Heathrow Enterprise office and lot. We had pre-booked the car through a well known membership store. The branch was very busy, as you might well expect being at one of the world's busiest airports and it took us some time to get our car. One member of your party lines up in the small office while the other(s) stand outside. It's somewhat chaotic. A rep walked us over to the car and the three of us looked over it for damage, the rep explaining that damage had to be 'bigger than a golf ball' and showing us a circle cut-out on a piece of plastic for demonstration. One of us took a few photos, which later ultimately saved our bacon. When we dropped the car off at a different Enterprise location, (we had the car less than 24 hours) they walked around the car and claimed the black plastic that goes over the wheel well was 'popped out'. Looking at it, you could barely see it. It definitely wasn't something we'd noticed picking the car up, but if you stood at the right angle, you could see it was SLIGHTLY protruding. Long story short, the rep at the drop-off location filed a report. Fortunately, we had some photos, albeit, not the best angles. At this point, we were BOILING MAD since we'd had the car less than 24 hours and had NOTHING to do with the damage. We were about to spend a month on vacation on a cruise and in the UK. Over that month, we spent many hours (and wifi data) on communications between ourselves and Enterprise and our credit card insurance, trying to straighten out the situation. It really took a toll on our vacation enjoyment. Fortunately, after about 3 weeks and much mental anguish and aggravation, due to our photos and explanations, the claim was waived, really only due to the fact we had photo evidence. However, I'm sure some unfortunate future customer will have the same claim put on them. I would avoid renting from Enterprise as reading reviews, this seems to be a standard practice.
