Centauro at Alicante Airport

Cons: They did not listen to my concern.

Pros: The support after the rental is a disaster.

Pros: easy and efficiency to get and return the car

Cons: Nothing

Pros: They provide very good condition cars at a cheap rate

Cons: The agent was a bit pushy on trying to get us to buy their own insurance which was very expensive and would have trebled the rental cost from £65 to £185 for 6 days. That made me feel anxious and doubt the cover given by Discover cars

Pros: Based at the airport,very easy pick up and drop off.

Cons: Charging extra €40 for arriving after 11pm which was not mentioned. The full cover front centauro cost more than the rental itself €20/day.

Pros: Quick transparent service nice clean and very new easy to drive vehicles

Pros: Very swift pick-up process

Cons: A forensic search for scratches on the car on return - which of course were found.

Cons: Trying to sell very expensive insurances at pick-up. No insurance company would like to be known for that pricing structure.

Pros: We were happy. We gave what we had bought.

Pros: Everything was perfect

Cons: N/A

Pros: Nice car

Cons: As previously stated. I was told that the insurance purchased from discover cars wasnt correct, so had to purchase theirs.

Pros: No queue at Alicante. Processed in seconds

Pros: Professional, fast and helpful

Pros: We changed the original car as it was not great, but the staff were very helpful

Cons: Very nice helpful staff

Pros: Staff were very helpful and sorted out a problem with our 1st vehicle efficiently making our holiday less stressful. Great communication!

Cons: Nothing to complain about but maybe they could reward there regular guests with better discounts as they aren’t always the cheapest hence I book with someone else but would prefer not too.

Pros: Efficient. No Messing. Spoke good English which helped a lot. Because I’m an ignorant Englishman.

Cons: N/A

Pros: So easy from start to finish, all staff so friendly and helpful

Cons: Noting

Pros: They were friendly and flexible

Cons: Dropping the cars at Alicante Airport is very annoying as you need to choose the right entrance even though it is the same car park. I would of preferred to pick up and drop the car in Alicante Town without the charges.

Pros: Quick, efficient and friendly

Cons: The car was badly damaged on the rear passenger side. When I made comments about it I was told they are all damaged in some way. Not the sort of service we expected when paying so much.

Pros: Perfect service

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Spoke English well

Cons: Purchased insurance which was 174 euros. Steep!

Pros: Good and quick service both pick up and drop off.

Cons: Right rear tyre leaked and air had to be added daily.

Pros: Nice car and speedy service

Cons: Unfriendly service desk employee, pushing for an upgrade of insurance continuously!

Pros: Friendly person

Cons: Insistance of taking full coverage insurance

Pros: I liked the efficency, and the car was in decent condition.

Cons: I did not like the fact that I had handed over the voucher to the agent, explaining I'd full insurance. The agent did not seem to have listened to this and charged me for full insurance again, this time through Centauro. I presummed this was the damage deposit not extra insurance cover. I was not shown a breakdown of costs at the desk and told it would be sent via email. When I received the email I realised I'd paid for full insurance twice. I emailed back right away complaining. A scam !!

Pros: see above.

Cons: The add on €140--00 for additional insurance having taken out comprehensive insurance at the time of booking.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: They forced me to take their Car Insurance even though I had purchased the Full Cover with Discover Cars. Avoid Centauro ""LIKE THE PLAGUE".

Cons: The first car I was given had a really dirty drivers seat like someone had been eating and drinking and dropping on the seat. Horrible stains. Centauro swopped for another vehicle that was a little better.

Cons: Watch out for the possible trick. The company insistently offers you full insurance, but after you return the car, they can freely detect the lack of any element inside. Without notifying you and without being real, they will charge you. Maybe it's the branch's policy to make money out of nothing, or it's an employee's intention to make you pay for his mistake. But in any case, I don't recommend it, unless you take pictures of the whole interior.

Pros: KIND COURTIOUS AND EFFICIENT

Cons: Forced to upgrade ended up with smaller car

Pros: The staff were fine and the car was new

Cons: The Insurance was a rip off and the car was smaller than I ordered making it a very uncomfortable trip to Benidorm for 4 Adults and all their bags

Cons: They charged me 28 euros for a number plate which was in my opinion poor quality and was wear and tear .but I did not have a photo of the number plate when I picked it up it was not caused by damage

Pros: Good price, low deposit

Pros: Efficient

Cons: Expensive

Cons: Lied saying a car with 10k miles was brand new whilst heavily pushing the excess insurance

Cons: Once I had finished with the girl at the desk she sent me over to the car park to pick up the car, I had ordered a child’s car seat so had to get this from the man in th me car park office. He was no where to be seen. After 10 hours travelling I had 2 screaming children and i was stuck in the car park as I could not find anyone for over 30 minutes. Luckily another customer was dropping his car off and sent his son over to the deck within the airport to get someone. This caused a lot of stress

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Everything

Pros: Clean car

Cons: Extremely unpolite lady who was trying to sell their extra insurance while I was already covered.

Pros: Not too eager to make me buy extras.

Pros: Car was clean and issue free

Cons: Over charged - took a deposit of 1050 euros plus the charge for the fuel up front. Disappointing

Pros: quick check out

Cons: slow collection and not allowed to extend by a few days without a lot of trouble via website etc so didn't do it

Pros: Fast and efficient

Cons: No pushing me to upgrade etc.

Pros: Quick and easy

Cons: Tried to charge twice for extra driver

Pros: Changed me twice for fuel on pick up I dropped car back full charged me a fee twice very bad .

Cons: Changed me twice for fuel on pick up I dropped car back full charged me a fee twice. Can very old with lots of damage on it .

Pros: Trustworthy

Cons: Nothing

Pros: It was no fuss and my deposit was returned as promised

Cons: Hard sell of additional insurance despite me having third party deposit insurance in place. I ended up buying it, it wasn't cheap, however it made the rest of pick up and drop off less fuss.

Pros: Fast. Easy to find.

Cons: Not having a full tank of fuel.

Pros: Centuro were the rudest people I’ve ever dealt with

Cons: Everything! Will never use again!

Pros: nothing- after i refused their full insurance the smiles departed

Cons: the lady i dealt with became quiet aggressive when i refused their insurance almost to the point i was going to walk away and book elsewhere.. WONT BE BACK

Pros: Relatively good service but they tried to sell you extra insurance

Cons: Long queue, must be a quicker way of processing customers in advance via an app?

Pros: Easy to find at the airport; great assistants, no push, clear conditions!

Cons: Crowdy at pick up.... too many customers ;-).

Pros: Price

Cons: Rude members of staff. Suggesting that I couldn't get the car without paying extra for insurance.

Pros: Confident staff, good English which helped my patchy Spanish

Cons: Pressure sell of extra insurance, made me doubt my purchase of full cover with the internet broker. Thought I was dealing with Centauro not a broker on line initially

Pros: Nothing. Service was appalling

Cons: Took us over an hour just to be seen at the desk when we arrived, tried selling numerous add ons and had no interest in helping us with the child car seat. Damage report doesn’t match what they state on paperwork and try charging you for everything

Pros: nothing

Cons: The staff were rude. Hugging and puffing when we pointed out that we had already paid all the extras for full cover to the broker. Rolled her eyes and said ‘read the terms and conditions more carefully when you book with a broker’ ... since read lots of reviews suggesting this is a scam operated but centauro. Would never, ever use them again.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: I found Centaura very unsatisfactory when we declined their offer of insurance (we had already taken up insurance with Duscover). Be very careful when collecting a car from Centaura - check it thoroughly for existing damage. We paid the price and were charged for damage we know we did not cause. I will NEVER use Centaura again

Cons: Length of wait and no opportunity to purchase premium queue service which jumped queue.

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: We were given the wrong car keys so had to return to the desk. We were issued with a different car and paperwork but they made a further admin error and gave us someone else’s car so has to call us to correct the error, however after returning the car they have not refunded our fuel costs despite us returning the car full. I expect this is due to the admin error. I have issued a complaint and am waiting to hear back but no response yet after 48 hours

Pros: Easy to find and use

Cons: The insurance cost and different options was slightly confusing.

Pros: Guys where fantastic our flight got redirected to another airport and with in 10 mins of calling them they had arranged for me to pick up a car at the new airport at no extra cost.

Pros: It took 3 hours to collect car at airpirt!

Cons: Waiting time RIP off financiallg

Pros: easy to find

Cons: didn't explain how to start the car pushy trying to sell insurance-at a very high price

Pros: Nice car, reasonable price.

Cons: We waited in the airport in a queue for the rental desk for almost 2 hours. Then to only require the agent to input my passport and driving license details onto the system and take payment. All of which could have been done online beforehand. I was then charged a late service fee as the flight was delayed and there was the massive queue.

Pros: Although I booked with everything covered they wanted either 154 euros to cover any other damage or they woud take 1200 euro on my credit card until it was returned and even with a scratch on the car they would not give me back my 1200 euro, this is just a scam as I already had cover from the UK insurance, the lady said either you want to pay 154 Euro or 1200 its up to you. I shall spread this to all social media and to money saving expert UK

Pros: Nothing, disgusting

Cons: Endless wait at airport to collect car. Rip off with car insurance. rip off with petrol policy.

Pros: fast and simple

Cons: nothing

Pros: good location easy drop off

Cons: took 3 hours to wait for a car

Pros: Car was alright

Cons: We waited 75 minutes to pick the car up. Ridiculous

Cons: Length of time queuing to pick up the car was almost 1 hour.

Pros: Quick return of my deposit. No problems at all with the car, was really nice and new

Cons: Took over an hour to wait at the desk to sort out the paperwork when collecting the car - really really slow

Pros: Staff seemed friendly

Cons: 1. An hour waiting to collect the car was unacceptable. 2. The car had damage that was not explained by the agent

Pros: Clean car quite new

Cons: Cost much more than promised

Pros: Drop off was quick but they failed to inform me about what they considered to be insufficient fuel. Car was very good

Cons: Despite specifically rejecting extra insurance when I booked and telling the agent st the desk that I didn’t want or need extra insurance We were subjected to 10 mins sales spiel. Because I was getting annoyed he said I was rude.I was annoyed that although I thought I had booked full/full I was told that I had to take half/half. He said full/ full was an option but they hadn’t got any. I took the car as half full and returned it half full but was charged for refuelling and extra fuel. Rip off!

Pros: Cost

Cons: Booked a ‘van’ type vehicle but got a hatchback. Worked out ok but could have been awkward.

Pros: Nice car

Cons: Had to pay a very high price for the insurance. Twice as much as on line booking. Same car, same length of time.

Pros: This scale is ambiguous not clear if 1 means little time dropping car or long time!!

Cons: Massive wait at Alicante. Never told that at Malaga airport there is no drop off. It is a ten minute drive away!! Terrible.

Pros: nothing

Cons: I was scammed out of €126 by Centauro. I called Centauro after making the booking on +34966360360 to see if it was ok to use the secondary driver's credit card for the booking as the primary driver does not have a credit card. I was told this was absolutely fine. Upon arriving at the desk to collect the car I was told they could only accept a credit card in the first drivers name. They only way they would accept the secondary drivers credit card was if we added the Smart Cover.

Cons: pick up time

Pros: No queue on collection, easy drop off.

Cons: felt pressurised to upgrade, take extra insurance, take out break down assistance. Car was highly damaged

Pros: The car was great - brand new and exactly what we wanted. The staff at the pick up point in the car were very helpful as we'd been given the wrong space number to pick the car up from. Drop off was great and the man who checked our car was polite and efficient.

Cons: Tried the hard sell for extras when we reached the desk. Got very pushy with us to take out extra unnessecary insurance etc. Did not give us directions as to where to find the car.

Pros: Curteous and efficient

Cons: Tried to sell extra insurance despite letting them know we already had it. Weren’t over pushy though

Pros: no pressure to buy additional insurance ( I already had mine)

Cons: Nothing.

Cons: Rip off on price quoted!

Pros: Did not accommodate my booking mistake! And doubled my rental fee. It was MY mistake in booking but I expected a bit more understanding since we had been traveling for 2 and 1/2 days

Cons: I should have been credited the deposit fee!

Cons: hire agreement was full/full petrol. I was told the car was 3/4 full of petrol at the desk when signing up for the car. When I got to it, it wasn't even 3/4 full. It should have been full as per hire agreement. I took the car back with nearly full of petrol, Centauro would not refund the difference when I asked for it.This is very unfair as nowhere in the terms and conditions does it say they will not refund the difference.If I had taken the car back under 3/4 they add charges. very Unhappy!

Pros: NOTHING

Cons: I know that car rental companies in Spain just crook. But not on a such level. Especially 75 deposit for refueling and refunding without VAT

Cons: Paid for a car seat but had to ask for it. Not all damages were listed

Pros: Honestly, nothing really. It was stressful even getting the car.

Cons: They didnt give me an automatic and I had to fight to change it. I couldnt find the discover office because it doesnt exist and Centauro staff sent me away intially not knowing what discover is.
