Horrible Customer Service

2022-06-22

I booked a car today that was left with an empty tank. I barely drove 1 km before the car stopped and I waited 2 hours in the sun before their recovery called... to ask where my location was to arrive 30 min later! Luckily the police came to sort matters out with Cafu. No apology no manager to speak to - nothing! I strongly advise Udrive

No cars available

2022-07-23

There arenโ€™t any cars available in Silicon Oasis, where they would get a lot of clientele. Sometimes 1 or 2 cars, most of the time no cars are there. Their competing company has more cars available everywhere, Iโ€™ll definitely consider using the other app on the future.

Scammers that steal money

2022-08-24

They have in purpose mande Apple Pay fail! Please Apple review ekarCarRental and remove it from the AppStore!

These people and company are scammers!!! They are stealing peopleโ€™s money, they trick Apple Reviwers to say they accept Apple Pay, but in ekarCarRental they force it to fail and for e people to add their own cards, so they can directly charge whatever and whenever they want. They charge u disputed fines, they charge other people consumption and their scammer company run without a Customer Support team that people has no way to reclaim their money back!!

Please Apple, shut down this scammer company and remove their app from the AppStore for going against the guidelines!!!

They donโ€™t care

2022-09-25

Used the service once and after locking the car they block my account because they couldnโ€™t make the debit card debit???? Now I have to pay 30 DHS penalty for not been able to pay with the card (as they said) when I told them the issue they tried again and went through but STILL banned and asked to pay.
Wrote several emails but they just donโ€™t care about clients.

Worst car ever in UAE

2022-10-26

Faulty app, full of bugs !
App pay option is available but it doesnโ€™t go through and then it charged me 30aed penalty !
Had to call customer service for everything !
Document verification is old and slow. Error while closing the booking and had to call customer service again. All this time was on customer !
Avoid at all costs.

Far worse than expected

2022-11-27

One time started a trip but the car never opened. Had to call ekar customer service and they told me the car doesnโ€™t work, they wouldnโ€™t return the money to my bank account. Second time I was charged an extra 30 AED. It just seems that they are thieves trying to get your money without giving you a proper service

They are cheater

2022-12-28

Donโ€™t use it and I suggest you to donโ€™t register your credit card with them. They charge you without notifying you with unknown penalties. They charge me extra and when I contacted them they said that they have right to charge any money they want.
Donโ€™t use them and donโ€™t register your credit card with them. They are untrusted

Charges for everything

2023-01-29

It is stupid that the company charges 1 aed for updating credit card. And dubai is high on tourism and they ask lot of documents for a tourist and also charge a security deposit of 2000 aed. It also charges cleaning fees but majority of the time the car is not really clean. Would highly recommend to stop charging for updating information.

Wrong location always

2023-03-02

I used to recommend ekarCarRental to friends but not anymore. I just deleted it because the issue is happening again and again. I see the car on map, I book it and after I reach to the location itโ€™s not there.
If you have time to waste go for ekar otherwise Careem worths the extra few dirhams ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป
Bye bye ekar๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ

Beware of the Surprise fees!!!!

2023-03-31

Although the idea and the service is very practical and nice, but the rip off hits you by surprise after returning the car if they claim that you have not returned it with the same fuel level as when u received the car Especially that itโ€™s a percentage value that only the company can decide on, we as customers canโ€™t know the numbers except when you find you were charged 40-50$ for fuel level discrepancy. Even if you had 1% discrepancy, they charge u for a full tank.

That is a Rip Off

Apply Pay Integration

2023-05-02

ekarCarRental has a big integration issue with Apple Pay.
It deducting 1 SR from my account, even it was able to deduct the 3+ SR and roll back the transaction, however on reserving the car the process declined due to payment issue (btw the error was not descriptive at all).
After contacting the customer support, and they were very friendly and helpful, they confirmed that the system showed that the 1 SR confirmation fees not registered in the system and I have to pay again ( for the 3rd time).

Unreliable

2023-06-02

It happened to me 2 times already where I take a taxi to reach a car and the car is not there. The call center did not answer the first time and later gave me the same excuse that thereโ€™s a problem with the hardware. Itโ€™s a good idea and a good service but not reliable for the long term (to be used as only method of Transportstion).

Outstanding payment!

2023-07-04

Iโ€™m trying to book a car but it keeps telling me there is an outstanding payment, it was the one riyal from the credit card for confirmation! I paid so far 5 riyals and still itโ€™s giving me the same msg and I canโ€™t book!
Thatโ€™s a major issue honestly.

Excellent service

2023-09-05

Easy to use and rent car per minute. Car Availability and quality are good.

BEST SERVICE EVER

2023-10-07

Loved the service and the cars provided by Ekar. Used an infinityq50 for about a week. Amazing car I must say and was in a great condition. Big thanks to the guys at Ekar for the service ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป. Their assistance was prompt when I required it. Love the experience.

Service turn around!

2023-11-07

Had issues with customer service before I could even use ekarCarRental pertaining to the promotion. Even though it took a bit of time, the customer service managed to help me out. This is a good indication and will look forward to using Ekar!

Very good customer service

2023-12-09

I really appreciate the good CS in ekar as I was having some issues about my account but when I called them they responded to my queries very fast and in serious way so I thank them alot for the customer care and especially to Mr. Tarek because he was very helpful and he must be an idol for the cusomer care field.

Amazing app and company

2024-01-09

Very convenient company to move around Dubai. Definitely the cheapest optyas well. Highly recommended

Worst customer service

2024-12-18

Their application was bugged and they donโ€™t respond to your email i sent them thousands of emails, they just charge u!

Terrible customer service

2024-12-18

One of the worst car sharing companies out there with terrible customer service. Avoid like the plague

Is it a scam? The app took my money!!!

2024-12-18

ekarCarRental was ok, then 10 days ago ekarCarRental is not working at all!
I called the call center and they just said that my account is ok and they donโ€™t know what to do with ekarCarRental !!!
Even I deleted and downloaded ekarCarRental again many times itโ€™s not working!!

I have money in my account and I canโ€™t get it and no one at that call center know anything at all about ekarCarRental

I donโ€™t know what to do anymore ๐Ÿ˜ž

Application crash

2024-12-18

Application is disaster. It keeps freezing and its not updated . I made reservation snd was at place 10 minutes early just to see that the car was waiting for me 26km away from the place where i was . It was not a car i booked

Unreliable

2024-12-18

Made me walk more than 1 km to reach the car. Car is not there. Called the hotline. Indeed car is not there. Not the first time this has happened.

Excellent!!

2024-12-18

Itโ€™s was very helpful and excellent experiment with Ekar , definitely i will try it again

Great service

2024-12-18

Smartest and cheapest mode of transportation around Dubai. But you need a local (GCC) drivers license.

Excellent service and excellent app

2024-12-18

I'm so happy with ekar.
