Aberdeen depot St Machars Drive. Served by the manager Tom. Arrived at 9.00 am for a booking in my name. , we were the only customers present.
It took an hour to do the paperwork which meant we had to leave straight away. Realised later that van was hired with my son as the hirer and me as the named driver. All payments in my name. Very unimpressed with a Thrifty Aberdeen. A hire company hire that can't hire to the right person. Very poor.

If you arrive late back at night and nobody to inspect car and you have to drop of car, they notify you that you have damaged the car and claim of you and you knowhis is not true, they are at it. I know I did not damage car. How can you trust a company that claims of you but I do not think this is the only company fraudentlt

The team at Thrift Tower Bridge are extremely unhelpful, unresponsive and simple do not care. We rented a car over 6 weeks ago and have sent multiple emails without any response, when I call them I'm told that my email has been "flagged as important" yet still do not receive a response from them. The team has held onto my rental deposit as they are claiming that there were mechanical issues with the car yet have failed to provide proof of said issues, simply giving the excuse that the car manufacturer needs to inspect the damage to determine it was caused by me or something covered

Have visited them recently and completely transformed! The staff are so helpful and friendly and a pleasure to deal with. I think it may be new people but so much better - would definitely recommend the Aberdeen branch!!
I dealt with a cental office to get a long term hire arranged. After stating that it takes three to five working days to locate a vehicle they didn't meet that guarantee. I had to chase them for updates and information. As you have to organise your own insurance I couldn't give the insurer details of the car to obtain the certificate to send to Thrifty which doesn't help the process

Really great rental company, clear pricing, clear excesses and really helpful and friendly staff at this branch. Here's a photo of the car I hired, which I was also really happy about.

Do not rent from this company. I am an American and no one explained the congestion fee or how to pay for this. Seems logical, if you have a person from outside the UK hiring a car, that they should explain congestion fee since this location is inside a congestion fee area.

Booked a car on the Thrifty website and received confirmation. Called the Thrifty Care Rental Branch in Greenwich to ask what car would be provided. Was told that they didn't have any cars available and that they wouldn't be getting a car ready. The booking was made at 3:30 so they had plenty of time to get a car ready before closing time. The guy who answers the phone is smarmy, and seems as though the branch is just one of the lazy ones which cant be bothered serving clients. We've been a loyal customer of Thrifty utilising them most weeks. May have now lost another customer! Thrifty

Very good experience, nice staff, relatively quick process, no exaggerated check of ''every scratch'' on the car. We ordered and paid for Volkswagen Golf, but we got BMW1 instead. Book in advance for a long period of time for the best price, and book directly through Thrifty. Thank you.
