Goldcar Gran Canaria fuel refund

Make sure you check the Goldcar fuel refund actually happens. I hadn't received a refund from our hire over two weeks ago. I tweeted them this morning and apparently there was an error on my contract, stopping the system issuing the refund. They've just issued a manual refund.
To be fair, it was quickly resolved.
PROs
No queue at pickup, cheap hire, decent Peugeot 3008, quick dropoff, no issues with car condition, staff spoke good English
CONs
All the extras with their fuel - 57eur fuel, 5.30eur location, 27.31eur operation, 12.33eur diesel extra then 13.5% tax and a further 2% currency mark-up
All in, after refund, the fuel added around 50GBP to the hire.
