Drivalia Tradestone Manager Awful Customer Service
(Please look at the reply from the branch manager of Drivalia at the end of my Review, on the day of the event managers said it could take upto 5 days for refund, that’s what happens when you come across rouge franchise)
On 2/5/26 Saturday 12.15 noon was a perfect example where my trust & confidence I had from earlier hire from Drivalia gots shattered to extreme low.
The moment I went in there (Drivalia Tradestone Glasgow )& spoke to the manager who was in charge of the unit at that time, I had a very negative vibe as if he wasn’t happy to see me. The conversation between us was more like interrogations. I took everything in a positive way and made the payment he asked me to so that I could walk away with the car asap. But the gentleman then demanded £ 75 for delay pick up.
My point was he should have told me about it and added it to the money I made payments just a few minutes before.
So I refused to pay and requested him to waive it off if possible as I was unaware of the fact that I have to pay £75 if you come late to pick up the car.
So unfortunately I had no option other than to cancel my booking. To my surprise he then told me he can’t reverse the payment and it can take upto10 days. But me in business too I know you can just reverse the payment till an hours, it is as easy as that.
As it was the last car in the unit he probably rebooked it to the person with whom he was on the phone non stop.
Really aweful customer service. Probably as it was Saturday he preferred to get better higher rates and commissions for it as well.
Really people like this gentleman can kill businesses. Really disappointing customer service and I am still waiting on my money.
They keep on repeating the same answer as below in their reply, I have repeated the process multiple times they requested me without any results. I am sitting on 18th day where my money is held unlawfully held by the Drivalia manager where no car was rented out.
They tend to shy away from direct reply which shows their shady side of the business.
Hope no customers go through this unless they become direct victim of the unit manager like me.
Reply from Drivalia
Good Afternoon, Please note refunds can take upto 28 days to be finalized and show in your account in accordance to your banks processing time also. Having also checked your booking I can see you arrived after the grace period and refused to pay the late pick up fee. The agent had followed company policy and terms. No further action will be taken regarding this complaint. Kind Regards.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that there was some confusion regarding our payment requirements at the time of collection.
To ensure a smooth rental process, we provide information regarding our payment and deposit policies at the time of booking and on the confirmation voucher. For clarity, our standard requirements are as follows:
• Security Deposits: We require a pre-authorisation deposit on a credit card in the name of the main driver (starting from £1500).
• Debit Card Use: We do accept debit cards; however, this requires the purchase of an excess waiver package to reduce the excess to zero. UK residents using a debit card must also pass a credit check or provide proof of employment.
• Payment Security: All deposits must be made with a physical card with at least 2 months' validity. We cannot accept virtual cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or cards without visible numbers.
• Exclusions: We do not accept cash or prepaid cards.
If you require any further information regarding your booking or this process, please contact us through the Manage My Booking portal on the Drivalia.co.uk website.
With best wishes,
Drivalia

Inconsistent Approach to Service
On my 5th time renting with Drivila I was suddenly refused a car due to a failed credit check.
I have now spoken with them and it was the fact the desk agent didn't check with branch support.
They had assessed risk and decided local hirers were most likely to cause damage- so added a new credit check element without advising.
I initially failed this, but then when spoke with branch support was told actually I could have hired the car- but this was a few days later when I had paid double to hire with another company.
I had been a perfect customer on the prior 4 hires and the desk agent was not advised to use common sense and was told to blindly apply this new policy.
This happened on a Sunday morning- so there was less options as a customer to query.
This was a really frustrating experience after 4 prior hires which were successful.
They do a great price, but the insurance options are extortionate- so I have always had to use a broker to make it more affordable.
The first hire was difficult as it was not made clear how much needed to be on the card for a deposit (and it had to be on 1 card- which I did not have with me although I had enough over 2 cards). It was also not made clear in the conversation it was refundable as it was listed with the insurance packages as if it was an option of what is to be paid.
Once this was resolved (by the broker speaking to them on the phone for me) they were a great hire company on the next 3 hires.
Then the 5th they threw in an unexpected credit check and the branch didn't do the full checks to allow me to hire. It was only when I called during the week when it was too late to correct the error.

Poor experience – Glasgow Tradeston branch
My experience relates specifically to the Drivalia Glasgow Tradeston Branch.
I rented a van from this location and unfortunately the overall experience was very disappointing. The vehicle condition and several important details about the rental were not clearly explained when collecting the van.
I was not given a proper opportunity to inspect the vehicle with staff before taking possession, and I only realised certain issues after already using the vehicle.
When I raised my concerns, communication was slow and required multiple follow-ups. The situation took a long time to address and caused unnecessary stress.
Although the company later acknowledged that communication could have been handled better, the outcome did not resolve the overall experience.
For anyone considering renting from this location, I strongly recommend carefully checking the vehicle condition, documentation and all terms before leaving the premises.
Unfortunately, this experience left me very disappointed with the level of service at the Glasgow Tradeston branch.

Highly Recommended
I've hired a few cars over the last few weeks and found both Kenny and Gary great to deal with. They're helpful, explain things clearly, and have given me extra support when I've asked questions.
The cars have all been clean and in great condition.
