Promotional code for Economy Car Hire

If anyone is looking for a bargain car hire deal - check out Economy Car Hire,
I booked all of my 2007 Spain car hire with Economy Car Hire https://www.economycarhire.com and got not only their usual 5% online discount but also an extra 5% extra off when I entered ROSEWYN ASSOCIATES as the promotional code. Their quote did appear to be a bit more expensive than most of the others, but everyting was included in the price - there was no insurance excess - completely fully inclusive which actually made them quite a bit cheaper than the others. I thoroughly recommend giving them a try - I don't know hoow long this promotional code will last.

    However, can I say welcome to Drewsouthgate and thank you for offering a deal as your first post. I assume you have no link to EconomyCH?

    Brilliant! Thanks very much Drewsouthgate!

    Just the right timing and they were the cheapest quote for the car I wanted.

    Many thanks.

    If you want to use a car hire company that operates out of a dumped car at Faro airport, who fails to provide the type car that was ordered, and the car that they do supply is filthy dirty, covered in dents with a burnt/ripped interior, with faulty lights and wipers, and when this reported to them respond with the email version of a 'so what', then I recommend Economy Car Hire.

    I think I will give them a miss again and will be using a reputable car hire company this year.

    I guess its down to individual experience, but I can happily recommend Economy Car Hire in Faro. They offer a very hassle free service and we always go with them (3 times so far).
    Once we forgot to bring a driving licence, and another time booked the wrong dates. Both times they sorted out the problem quickly, with minimal fuss.
    Again, this may not be everyone's experience, but I thought I'd offer mine, so as to balance the argument.

    Note: I was getting the same rate for up to 3 days of the vehicle, so check to see if you can get an extra day for "free". I only need 1 day of the vehicle, but it's the same price as a 3 day hire, so it's a little too much for me.
  • I have used ECH 4 times at Faro and everything has always been excellent. Even got a brand new estate car one year.

    Try carrentalabroad.com with fully comp insurance, nil excess and free drives.

    I have been using them for a few years; never had any problems, service is very good and the price is best you will find. Not forgetting at the airport as well.

    with all car hire brokers google for reviews, stay clear of those that have bad customer service, if things go wrong which they can do, some brokers wont help at all.

    Be careful using car hire codes that you aren't strictly allowed to use, the small print may say that all insurances are void if you do.
