GBBuyer Be Ware I discovered that Flexways, like other rental car companies in Costa Rica, have lots of expensive hidden insurance fees and other potential expenses when you book online before you arrive in country. The price I paid in advance had many more add-on costs when I arrived and I ended up paying much more for the vehicle. But they have you under a barrel. And to rub salt in that wound I ended up having to pay for a full tank of gas when I returned the car even though I had just filled up and had the receipt to prove it! They claimed it was not completely full. That was a complete scam. Because of heavy traffic, I decided to pay rather than get back on the road to go back to the service station I had left 5 minutes before turning in the car. I was in livid! The bottom line is make sure you understand all the fees they will charge you before you reserve and commit. You will likely be better off renting from one of the big names than a local Costa Rican company.

GBI have a rental for when I landed on…April 21st I have a rental for when I landed on Sunday and Flexway was already closed ! I was forced to get another rental for the one night and then had to return that rental to try to get my rental through Flexway the next day . I asked them to refund me the partial amount for the night they were closed and refused . They also wanted to charge me an extra 189 for unnecessary charges . They said I couldn’t use my insurance if were to pay with my bank card . So they then decided to cancel my reservation on me and left me and my daughter stranded without a car because I called them out for being sketchy . SO PLEASE DONT EVER RENT FROM THIS COMPANY ! THEY ARE SCAM ARTIST AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CUSTOMERS . So unprofessional and rude ! The manager told me to go F myself right in front of my 7 year old daughter .

GBRip off toll charges, poor admin The only reason they get one star is that the car was fairly new. On arrival at Miami airport no one at the shuttlebus to take us to the car collection centre. I had to call an international number which Incurred additional cost to my mobile contract. They said they had no record of my booking. 3 phone calls later they found it. The toll policy is scandalous and completely out of proportion to the toll costs and their probable admin fees. I feel like they are taking advantage… $20 bucks a day for 10 days (or $25 per toll admin fee) - we only went through tolls on 2 of the days we had the car. Total toll cost was probably $15-20 and we had to pay $200 in admin fees 3 days after arrival I started receiving messages saying they were expecting me to collect my car despite me already having it. At the end of the trip their customer services told me to email them to resolve the high toll charges. I was then ignored despite emailing them a couple of times Won’t be using again

GBForced to buy insurance Company states they provide full coverage insurance for the car rental. When I went to pick up car, the agent stated that the provided insurance was worthless and that I was required to purchase their insurance. This added over $200 to the rental. They stated that I was not allowed to take the car unless I purchased their insurance. Took someone 3 months to respond to my issue and then stated that the agency was correct. Why would anyone buy more insurance if full coverage was already provided???? No one can answer that question, avoid them at all cost.
