AtlasChoice

Be WARNED! The company is now bankrupt, if you've booked and have yet to collect the car, call your CC immediately and make other car arrangements. The "unofortunate circumstances" are that they're now delinquent though they are still not publically admitting it. Just do a quick google search dated last month for more info.

If you've booked, travelled, collected and returned the car but now being charged double by local companies because Atlas isn't going to be paying them, report the charge to your CC as fraudulent, as you have no fiscal responsibility whether or not the broker paid the supplier, that's not why your credit card was given. Good luck and don't let it affect you too much, they're all a bunch of crooks but you'll get your money back anyhow.

Locator rental company tried to debit my credit card as they haven't been paid by Atlas Choice. Fortunately, they registered the cvv number incorrectly so the debit failed. Then they called me and asked for details which I refused to give. Then they threatened to repossess the car by activating the tracker. I told them I'd report it stolen. I returned the car at the airport as planned. It cannot be right that these companies can shift their bad debts on to the consumer. Will look into this.

When I refused to accept a damaged vehicle from local partner that looked like "after accident" with scratches and rear bumper broken into two pieces, and when local partner refused to substitute, Atlaschoice responded unprofessionally and unethically, kept the money, sent irrelevant reply, and closed the case. I lost what I paid for this experience and had to pay a lot more to a reliable car rental at the airport. Do not use crooked Atlaschoie.

Did not make a booking in Portugal due to the fact that they refuse to tell you if you buy a Platinum coverage, in which circumstances they will charge the 1000 deposit on your credit card! So it doesn't matter which coverage you choose, they always claim a min deposit of 1000! They rely on 3rd car partners who will charge damage if they see fit. And because there is no clear policy regarding damage, this is a very tricky and doubtful way of working. Took me 4 days and 5 emails, and still not 1 answer regarding which kind of damages are being charged with a Platinum (so called full) coverage. On their site they hand out `presents`, but these are not presents, I asked them but it is pure nonsense. Did not trust them at all and booked at one of their competitors.

What BS company? They charge me 193$ for a rental car mid size! When I got at the airport I don't have any info any company name like a enterprise herts etc... I try to contact them and realize they are from London and dont answer they polhone after 4 hours 1 by 1 checking I found a company dollar"rent a car and they said they will give me a compact car Chevy spark really? If I want a me size its 145 dollars more be cause they are form London md size for them means compact to us, so I had no choice more 150 almost why I pause for the first time, so atlas choice is the bad decisions u can make to deve money don't do that or u Gina make ur vacation really bad

Had car hire back in Sept thought everything was great until yesterday when Thrifty car hire steal over £900 from my credit card as Atlas have not paid them in spite of me paying Atlas months ago. I now have to fight to get my money back which they have taken illegally as they should never have kept my card details and certainly didn't have my authorization to do so. On further investigation I find out today that Atlas Choice are in Liquidation. ON NO ACCOUNT BOOK ANYTHING WITH THEM their web site
Still takes booking knowing this.

Booked a car through atlas choice with travel rent.
Travel rent are difficult to find working from a cabin the car park.
Atlas choice take your money before you land
Travel rent then add 50% on top inventing some local charges, this they demand in cash making it difficult to get back through your credit card company
There is a supposed customer service route, but your complaint will not be investigated, run a search this company are infamous for this kind of robbery, (wish i had before using them)
All travellers avoid atlas choice in every city

Terrible company. You will be left stranded without a car and charged for it! Please research Atlaschoice reviews and read all the negative experiences about them before you book - I wish I had!

I booked an automatic car and prepaid with AtlasChoice. When I went to pick up my car, I was informed that my request for a manual car was not processed by Atlas Choice and there were no automatic cars available. Atlas Choice left me stranded.

After promising a refund over the telephone, Atlas Choice charged me again. I have made several attempts to contact Atlas Choice who will not process the refund.

This is a terrible example of how a company can cheat and steal from its customers. I never leave customer reviews, but I feel it's my duty to warn others NEVER to hire with Atlas Choice.

I hired a car for our holiday in Montenegro from Atlaschoice.com over the net and paid them in full only to get home after the holiday and then noticed that the Partner company Green Motion from whom I picked the car up from deducted the full rental amount out of my credit card again.
I called Green Motion and asked why they deducted the rental cost from my account they advised that Atlaschoice have NOT PAID them and in GM contract I signed it gives them permission to debit your account if they don't get paid by Atlaschoice.
I tried for months to get in touch with Atlaschoice via Phone, Email, their web site all with no answer or reply. BUNCH OF $#*! HOLES

This company is disgraceful! Never ever use them!

I booked a rental car in San Francisco through atlas choice for my family and I.

We landed on time and proceeded to Ace rental cars at San Francisco international airport. Ace Rental Cars was the company the third party rental car booking firm atlas choice had done our rental reservation with and who we had prepaid for the car rental.

Unfortunately upon arriving at Ace we were informed that they did not have a rental car available for us. It was impossible to contact atlas choice and ace rentals in San Francisco would not give us a refund as they said the problem was from atlas choice.

We had to book a rental with enterprise at the airport which cost us $80 per day! Not fair when the problem was atlas choice.

I have now contacted atlas choice three times and have no refund. I will never use them again and would encourage others to do the same. I will post against atlas choice and ace car rentals on as many travel websites as I can find as I am furious. I was in SF late at night with my two kids aged 8 & 6 after a long flight with the rental we had booked and paid for not available. Shame on you atlas choice and ace car rental.

Your review will help others learn about this website.
After searching a few companies online I thought Atlas looked like they were offering a good deal and made a booking with them. I paid the extra premium so that if I cancelled my booking, I would not be charged anything. Upon cancelling my booking, they charged USD60 to my card (even though it clearly flashed up on my screen that they would not charge me anything). Then they argue over and back on email with me and treat me like I am the dumb one! On top of that, they passed on my mobile number to an external supplier to try and get me to do a booking with them! I have complained again to them but I am sure they won't care. Best to avoid these 'cheap' companies as there is no such thing as a good deal! I'll be sticking with Europcar / Hertz direct anymore.

I stay in algarve every winter for several months and hire cars regularly. I used atlas choice in november, used their voucher to get the car.no problem but on returing the car to the rental co. I had to pay the rental company 195 euros to get my pedosit back because atlaschoice had not paid the rental company. Made my complaint to atlaschoiceto no avail. Since then all my findings about atlas choice have been negative.DO NOT USE THE YOU WILL LOSE YOUR MONEY.

I reserved a car through Atlaschoice in Ancona. I ended up with Autovia, a 100% Italian rental company. Car was very old and scratchy, but OK, the price was also low. When we came back Autovia had collected money from my Creditcard. More than the rental amount.We dont know why.
I contacted Atlaschoice, but they do like nothing. They have no contact with the rental company they say, though thet rent out cars by Autovia every day. Autovia responds to nothing.

Do not rent your car by Atlaschoice because they have no service in these cases, thet do business with fraud companies. And you as consumer are will be the suffering one

Absolutely terrible!
We book car with Alta's choice only last week. We supposed to pick it up from Lodz airport and leave it at the airport in Warsaw. We checked details, price was good and so we booked only to get to know we got the vaucher that Atlas choice book the car to be picked up from Lodz and drop off at the Lodz airport. If we wanted to cancel we still had to pay 70% of the fee and if we wanted the car we had to pay additionally for dropping car in the different location. Nicely done Atlas Choice!

I arrived in Alicante and followed the directions given to pick up the bus that was taking us to the car rental park. After about 20 mins I rang the number given to see how long the bus would be. No answer. I tried at least 5 more times and every time didn't get a reply. It got to about 2215hrs and as I have 2 young boys I decided to get a taxi to the car rental park. The driver had no idea where the park was but did try to find it. He drove to every park that he was aware of and couldn't find it, he even asked his control centre but had no luck. As the time was getting late I had no choice but to hire another car from a different supplier at a considerable cost. Not a good start to our family holiday

I booked my car hire for Cagliari Airport in Sardinia online with a covering question asking Atlas how they could speed up my check in when collecting the car as we have a very tight deadline. They ignored the question for a few weeks and when I chased them said they ould not help "because there would be other customers at their check in when I arrived." Thanks for that piece of illuminating information Atlas- I had no idea there would be other customers (although come to think of it I am a litle surprised anyone uses this company)!
I asked again but there was nothing they could do-their only focus was on ensuring I knew they would be billing me handsomly for cancellation; even though my uestion as raised as a condition of booking. The fee was duly deducted of course.
In the event I booked with an alternative higher quality provider and I have secured a better car, at a lower cost and with a priority check-in desk that ensures I can meet my deadlines.
Customner service? I doubt Atlas have the first idea what it means. Fortunately other more professional providers do.
