They provided me a competitive price compared to other car rentals, as they beaded the price. The service they provided were quick and easy, and pick up and drop off services were fantastic. I will use them again and I highly recommend them to anyone. Show details

I would highly recommend this car rental company for affordable and reasonably priced car rentals. Flew on from Melbourne, helpful staffer on the phone with an Uber to collect me to take me to the office. Was given a very nice late model MG after the paperwork was done with the booster seat as requested. Nice, patient man at the desk. Will be using them again. Show details

Our Aussie Car Rental experience – It was a pleasure to deal with Cut Price Car Rentals. Justin was really helpful and made things easy. He offered us the older Holden that was a pleasure to drive and most suitable for our driving needs. Will certainly look them up for our future Oz holiday car hire. Cheers, Roy. Show details ·  1

Rental car – We had a fantastic experience with Cutprice Car Rentals at Gold coast Airport. The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, making the pick-up and drop-off process seamless. The car was clean, well-maintained, and performed perfectly throughout my trip. Their prices are competitive, It is a 5-minute trip from the airport (excellent… Read more

Perfect car definitely got what we asked for! – Hired a large SUV (LVD D90) for our family trip while we traveled to a few different cities in Queensland it was 22 days in total, we where picked up from Brisbane Airport and taken to the yard to pick up the car this was a very smooth process, All the paperwork was presigned this included card details so no lengthy forms to fill before you leave… Read more ·  1

card payment was smooth & this also covered any road tolls you pick up along the way (automatically paid from card) so we where on our way very quickly the car was in perfect condition was a pleasure to drive & very roomy I was worried it wouldn’t be big enough but it was more than big enough fitting 4 large suitcases and two small and backpacks plus 6 passengers and everyone was comfortable and had plenty of room! Just hooked up to CarPlay and everything was at our fingertips great sized screen to view maps. Was a great experience overall. We have hired multiple times from Cutprice car rentals and will definitely hire again when we come back! Thank you guys see you next time!

A1 Service – We would not hesitate to recommend Cut Price Car Rental to anyone wanting to rent a car on the Gold Coast. We have rented from this firm several times previously so are return business. The on-line booking process was user-friendly and the response rapid providing a very cost competitive quote for a later model vehicle. The instructions for… Read more ·  1

arrival at the airport were straightforward and the transport to the depot easy to find and access. We were impressed with the friendly driver who was most obliging lifting our bags in and out of the clean, modern shuttle. The depot was very close to the G.C. airport. At the depot, even though it was outside normal business hours, Emily was most efficient and our rental processed quickly. She took time to show us the details of the vehicle and was also friendly and obliging. The rental car was clean inside and out and in excellent condition. Within an hour of leaving the depot, we had locked our keys in the vehicle! We cannot fault the response to our predicament. Emily had finished work for the day but she had to find a duplicate key and travel ten minutes to open our car, all in her own time. She was very kind and understanding towards us and we thank Emily for her help which was above and beyond the call of duty! Overall, we were very impressed by Cut Price Car Rentals. The service was absolutely superb and we could not fault it; the car excellent and great value for money. We will certainly be using this rental company again.

Customer service not up to standard – On first setting up the agreement all seemed fine, they then said they would contact us closer to the date to sign the contract, they did not contact us, we had to chase them. They then told us we were being subjected to an additional $600 excess fee (on top of purchasing the $0 excess fee insurance) for being classed as a local resident which did… Read more

not apply to us. After voicing my displeasure they reduced this to $300 and demanded we agree to it otherwise they would cancel the agreement a day before we were due to collect the vehicle. Having such short notice to make other plans we agreed and they sent over another contract to sign which simply included the additional amount but did not specify in the contract what it was for. Nowhere on the contract does it state this. What they also failed to mention on sending over the new contract was that they changed the model of car we originally selected in our first contract. Therefore we ended up with a car model that was completely useless for our needs. There was also some confusion around the navigation system we purchased. The majority of the customer service we received was poor and unprofessional. We registered our complaint over the phone with them and requested a callback to discuss this, no call ever came. We then sent an email relating our complaint which we did not receive a reply.

However on submitting this review I was contacted by a member of the complaints department ([Name Removed]) who was extremely helpful and resolved the issue. She was very responsive, took the time to listen and was apologetic of the service we had received, excellent customer service when dealing with her, due to this I decided to increase my review rating.

I have just booked cut-price rentals for my trip to Brisbane. This is the fourth time I have used them. From the time I booked the car to the time I drop it off, It is excellent service. I don't even bother going to anybody else because they look after me. They always offer me a good price., and they go above and beyond. Once I had my twin… Read more

Easy to book and secure, competitive pricing and pick up drop off was a simple and quick process. Yes they are out of the airport terminal but if you can walk it about 8 minutes or take the free shuttle. Friendly service and no issues on our trip. Show details

Great service and the vans were exactly what we were looking for. Would certainly recommend this car rentals firm as everything went smoothly. Your team went above and beyond for us as we left the base of our car seat in the van and did not realize until we had checked in, but your team meet us and brought it to us we were so appreciative. Amazing team thanks heaps. Show details

After spending significant time on hold and providing all booking and payment details, I was assured the booking was confirmed. However, the company later requested further details by email without notice and cancelled the booking within an hour. As a result, we were left without a car. Overall, my experience with the company was disappointing.

STOP. BEWARE. If you have a breakdown they don’t have roadside assistance available. We were 200km from Gold Coast and 4 hours till our flight. Car wouldn’t go. They had no available way to get it fixed. We made our own way to their office. Handed in the keys. And 1 week later and still no communication or return of emails or phone calls… Read more

requesting they contact us to discuss. Initially I should have been more aware when they didn’t answer the phone when we landed at the airport awaiting there pickup van. CUT PRICE IT IS. 2days later and Now they are threatening legal action if I put up a review.

Car ran terribly. Was caked in mud on the tyres and I specifically asked if they would be open at 6am and they weren’t. I ended up having to get an uber. It’s close but not at that time with bags. Customer service was ok Show details

Customer service was great, both before and after the rental. The Suzuki Swift was exactly the car we requested. The “after hours pickup” details given to us were easy to understand & access. The walk from the airport only took about 8 mins. (we were very lucky as we missed a heavy shower as we drove out)! The car was very clean. There were… Read more

quite a few scratches on the vehicle, but we took photos and a video at the car yard & our excess was returned to our card promptly. We have used Cut Price rentals for many years (since it was Ned Kelly Rentals)! and the experience has been consistently good

From the moment we were looking at hiring a car or 2 the staff went above and beyond to help us find the best fit for our large group. Having all the paperwork filled out before we arrived made the pick up of the cars so much faster and smoother. We will definitely hire from them again. Show details

Very friendly and helpful during my first contact very helpful when I arrived at Gold Coast airport the car was clean and well prepared. I had a bit of trouble finding my way into the local service station to fill the vehicle before I returned it but pleasantly surprised that it used so little fuel. A good overall experience and very friendly staff. Show details

I recently rented a car for 10days for our family holiday. I called up and the man on the phone was incredibly helpful, he was super clear and nothing was too difficult to accomodate.

with the car seat i had ordered installed. No issues at all for the 10 days, on return we were rushing due to motorway traffic. The lady who received the car back so helpful and kind. Finalised with no issues and popped us into the shuttle to get back for our flight. Literally the entire process and all the people i met that work for them are amazing. Thanks a million

Cut price gave us a great deal on a quality VF Holden Wagon, the car was clean and tidy and drove great. We hired a GPS which is my only complaint as the maps on it were very outdated and it couldn’t even find our friends house where we were staying they’ve been in their house for a year! If you’re renting out GPS units they should have the most… Read more

up to date software otherwise invest in CarPlay systems! Was very difficult trying to navigate intersections that had changed. Other than that our experience was great! Easy pickup and drop off. Great deal with a $0 hold on our creditcard unlike many other rental companies who want to freeze $1000s of dollars while your on holiday. Will definately use again. Thanks cut price.

This is the second time we have used Cut Price Car Rentals and I wouldn't use any other company again. They are so efficient. Pick up and drop of is so easy and they are so economical. Highly recommend and so easy to get to with it being across the road from the airport! Show details
