Our car rental brokers Cars For Less, RentalCars, Atlas Choice, Affordable Car Hire and Economy Bookings negotiate the best deals with all international and local car rental companies in Port Elizabeth. Every broker has his own search form to check available rental cars.
Renting a car via our brokers is cheap and without unpleasant surprises: unlimited mileage, local taxes, airport delivery and almost all insurances are included in the quoted price. Compare their rental conditions.
The only extra insurance you may want is a No Risk Warranty to cover excess plus damage to tires, windows, roof and undercarriage. All brokers offer this insurance for a fair price: much cheaper than at the pick-up desk of the car rental company!

Picking up the car
How easy was it to find the rental office/service desk from Tempest car hire:
How clear were the directions on the voucher from CarTrawler:
The car was not clean. Tempest car hire did not solve this problem immediately. This solution is rated:
Comment: Car was clean inside, exceptionally dirty outside. I reported this to the staff member who accepted my complaint but was unable and/or unwilling to do anything about it.
The car had technical problems. Tempest car hire did not solve this problem immediately. This solution is rated:
Comment: The clutch was in poor repair. Again, I advised the Tempest staff member who was unable and/or unwilling to assist.
Ordered extra's (child seats, roof racks, navigation, ...) were not present when the car was picked up and Tempest car hire did not solve this immediately. This solution is rated:
Comment: I requested a GPS - Satellite Navigational System and was advised that the branch in Port Elizabeth did not have any units available. I would have preferred being advised of this before arriving to collect the car.

Problems while on the road
This problem occured: mechanical problems. The people from Tempest car hire did not handle this adequately:
Comment: The clutch was in poor repair. Again, I advised the Tempest staff member who was unable and/or unwilling to assist. On arriving at the car after a late evening out I found the battery was dead. I was unable to even open the car doors. I contacted the emergency call centre and was asked to wait for a return call. After having waited approximately 20 minutes I called again and was requested, again, to wait until the operator was able to locate a service person. After having waited alone, in the dark, for more than an hour I finally flagged a passing motorist for assistance. I am still waiting for the return call. I reported this to the staff member at Tempest when returning the car. I was promised he would attempt to credit me with a day's rental to offset any inconvenience. Unsure whether this was done as I received no communication from Tempest. Imagine, female client, between 23H00 and 24H00 at night in a deserted car park, in South Africa - not a comfortable situation.
We used the emergency number from Tempest car hire during the rental period and rate their accessibility:
