I had to change my arrival time to pick up the car, and Bella was very helpful in getting it done. I haven't arrived to actually pick the car up from Thrifty yet, so I'm not sure how smoothly the transaction will go after using a 3rd party to book a rental car. But for Bella, she was very polite and helpful, and she called me back before her promised time frame which is always a pleasant experience!

booking

It is always a bit odd for me to be booking through third parties and I am still uncertain as to how it will go but booking was simple.

I’ve booked a rental from VIP cars in…

I’ve booked a rental from VIP cars in Tirana International Airport on the 25/09 - 28/09. The car was ok but not a VIP one as it claims. It had a sat nav but it didn’t work and it was old like at least 12 years and a bit smelly, so I had to use my Apple Maps on my IPhone.

It also made me loose my flight as there was no one to handed over too. It was only 1 staff member he was nice but was busy with other clients and therefore I lost my flight back.
It makes me wonder what kind of company are they.

Today is 14/10 / 2026 and they are still holding my deposit.
I use car rentals quite often and usually the holding deposit is returned a day later. It has been almost 3 weeks, now and no deposit back. I am quite frankly disappointed with service.

Grace period not disclosed, booking cancelled after a flight delay

I booked a car through VIP Cars for pick-up at Verona Airport at 10:00. My easyJet flight from Gatwick landed 1 hour 35 minutes late. When I reached the supplier's desk, well within its opening hours, I was told my booking had been cancelled automatically because I was more than one hour late. I had to rent another car on the spot at a higher price.

VIP Cars' own Help Centre says the supplier's grace period will be shown on the Rental Confirmation Voucher. Mine showed no grace period at all, and nothing on it said I had to report a delay. A flight number was only required for pick-ups after 20:00.

I raised a complaint and asked for the price difference, which was EUR 31.90. Customer care admitted in writing that the requirement "was not explicitly mentioned on your rental voucher", but still refused any refund or goodwill gesture.

ADVICE TO OTHER TRAVELLERS: before you fly, check the grace period with the supplier directly, and contact them if there is any delay at all, even a short one. Don't rely on the voucher to tell you.

Dear Mikael Imperatori Festa,

We sincerely apologize for the experience you had and regret the inconvenience caused.

Kindly note that you must contact us or your rental provider in case of delay. If you arrive late at the rental counter without prior notice of any change in your travel plans, your rental would be counted as No Show and no refund is applicable in such case.
All the above information was mentioned in the rental terms and the confirmation voucher sent to you.

We apologize that we were unable to offer a refund or goodwill compensation on this occasion, and we appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention. Your feedback is important to us and will be taken into consideration as we continue to improve the clarity of the information provided to our customers.

Best Regards,
