Survey Results

A complete list of all questionnaire results

At the end of our booking process, we always ask a question to our renters, just to get a little idea of where they stand on some car hire issues. While this can help us to improve our site, mostly it's just because we really like knowing what you people think. Questions range from rental cars, to booking procedures, to general opinions of car hire suppliers.

 

We've been surprised by some of the results and thought you might be, too. So we've put the results up for you to take a look at and see where you're at compared to other renters in the country.


We'll keep putting them up for you as time goes on, the questions are always refreshed weekly so that the results are unbiased. The latest results are on the top!
