Dear Mr. Asulin
Thank you for your feedback.
We are doing everything possible to improve and optimize both the shuttle service and the vehicle pick-up process. Unfortunately, when several flights arrive within a short period of time, higher customer volumes can sometimes lead to longer waiting times than usual.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Your feedback is valuable and helps us identify areas where we can further improve our service.
Best Regards,

Dear Rudella,
Thank you for your feedback.
All fees, services and rental conditions are described on our website and during the booking process. If there is a specific charge that you believe was not clearly presented, please send us more details at customer.service@toprentacar.bg so we can review the case and provide clarification.
Regarding the preparation fee, if this is the charge you are referring to, it is not related solely to washing the vehicle. It covers the overall preparation of the car before each rental, including inspection, technical checks, cleaning, documentation and ensuring the vehicle is ready for the next customer.
We would be happy to investigate further once we receive additional information about your reservation.
Best Regards,
Top Rent A Car

Great service! Still terrible car park.
Great service. Excellent professional attitude. This time we spent a bit more of waiting time at the airport awaiting for the shuttle bus, but I wouldn't consider as a major downside.
The only complaint as it's been going for years is the dusty/muddy car park which is a terrible image presentation especially to all international travellers!!!

Dear Customer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for your 4-star review.
We are delighted to hear that you were satisfied with the VW Arteon Estate Diesel provided and that our rental desk colleague was able to assist you professionally and find a suitable solution. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to him.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused regarding the payment requirements for the originally booked Touareg. Certain vehicle categories are subject to specific rental conditions, including credit card requirements, which may vary depending on the vehicle class. We understand that the information you received beforehand created different expectations, and we appreciate your patience while our team worked to resolve the situation.
Your comments are valuable and help us improve the clarity of the information provided to our customers before arrival. We are pleased that, despite the initial delay, we were able to arrange an alternative vehicle that met your needs and contributed positively to your rental experience.
We look forward to welcoming you again on your next trip.
Best regards,

€150 for a scratch on a wheel cover is quite expensive. At least the insurance saved us €10, costing €54 in total (€10.80 per day).
By the way, part of the website was still showing outdated, lower prices.

Dear Mr. Schmidt,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are sorry to hear that you feel the charge applied for the wheel cover damage was higher than expected. We would like to kindly clarify that all damage-related charges are calculated strictly in accordance with our official price list, which is transparently available to all customers and forms part of the rental agreement accepted at the time of booking.
In your case, the applicable charge for the damaged wheel cover was €150, as per our official tariff for this type of component. This is a standardized cost that reflects the replacement and administrative handling involved.
We would also like to highlight that you had selected our additional Top Protection coverage. This product significantly reduces the customer’s financial liability in case of damage and is specifically designed to limit unexpected costs. Thanks to this coverage, your responsibility was reduced and capped at the amount applied. Without Top Protection, the financial responsibility for such damage would have been considerably higher, in line with the standard rental terms and conditions.
Our insurance options are created to give customers flexibility between lower upfront cost and reduced risk during the rental period. While we understand that any charge related to damage can be disappointing, the purpose of our protection packages is precisely to minimize such expenses and provide peace of mind.
We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to clarify our policies. We remain committed to transparency and fair application of all terms for every customer.
Best regards,
Top Rent A Car
Service
This is the first time I've had a bad experience since using your services. To receive the car, we had to wait almost 3 hours in the office near the airport. The reason given by the employees for the delay was that it was a public holiday and they had fewer staff to handle a large number of reservations.
How could such a situation have occurred?
I supposed that normally, a company like this maintains the necessary staff based on the number of reservations.
I remained completely baffled.
Kind regards

Dear Angel,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are sorry to hear about the delay you experienced during vehicle pick-up.
To allow us to review the situation in detail and provide you with an accurate response, please send us an email at customer.service@toprentacar.bg, including your reservation number.
During public holidays, there are often periods with a significantly increased number of arriving flights and customers. We continuously strive to provide sufficient staffing levels and maintain our service standards even during peak periods. However, we would like to investigate the circumstances surrounding your particular case before providing a final explanation.
We look forward to hearing from you.

I recently rented a Hyundai i20 automatic from Sofia Airport for four days, and the experience was excellent from start to finish.
The pick-up process at the airport was smooth and efficient, with no unnecessary delays. The car itself was in great condition—clean, well-maintained, and perfect for city driving as well as short trips in Sofia. The automatic transmission made driving effortless, especially in traffic.
Fuel efficiency was impressive, and the size of the Hyundai i20 made parking in the city very convenient. Despite being a compact car, it was comfortable and offered enough space for luggage and passengers.
The return process was just as easy, with clear instructions and quick handling by the staff. Overall, it was a hassle-free rental experience with great value for money, despite the fact that I delivered the car with a delay and I managed to arrive at the airport while my flight was in boarding process and I had to run a lot not to miss it. Fortunately I managed to fly!!!
I would definitely recommend this option to anyone visiting Sofia and looking for a reliable, comfortable, and easy-to-drive car.

Not a bad company in general, the car which we were given was ok, but there were both some organisational and communication faults. As well, upon arrival we had a very negative experience with one of their office employees.
We have booked and pre paid a car rental from Sofia head office and the instructions were saying to look for their shuttle upon arrival just in front of the airport terminal 1 entrance, but it was not there. We had to go ourselves to terminal 2 in order to get their shuttle to the car park which was running every 15 minutes. This procedure caused us about 40 minutes initial delay.
Even worse was the extra 3 hours delay caused to us by their very rude, incompetent and unprofessional office employee Milena Shopova. While serving us, at a certain point she started serving another client who apparently had already waited for quite a while for some reason and made us wait for over an hour, not even allowing her colleagues to go on with our booking. She kept saying that she was finishing with that other client, but never actually finishing. While we were waiting a step behind that other client, she was every now and then addressing us in a rude way over the other client’s shoulder asking silly questions and causing arguments.
Eventually, after making us wait for over an hour and a half she also refused to even try to find a solution (though we suggested some, included a call to a supervisor) to a problem caused by not very clear communication in the booking confirmation.
At her refusal, we had to waste other extra time to call a general number of a call center and from there to search the intervention of a supervisor to help us solve the problem.
Fortunately, the person who answered our call was very kind and helpful and after a couple of consultations he put us in contact with the Supervisor Alexander B. who offered a solution which required an extra 20 minutes of time. Only then we could go to another office employee, Stoycho Zhekov who after going through the same initial data verification procedure requiring another 20 minutes, delivered the car to us.
Eventually all went well, but our almost entire first day of rental was wasted due to their incompetent and unprofessional front office staff.

Dear Katerina,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.
We sincerely regret that your rental experience did not meet your expectations and that you encountered delays during the vehicle pick-up process.
Please be assured that we are already aware of the situation you described and that it is currently under internal review. Once the review has been completed, we will contact you directly by email with additional information regarding the case.
We are pleased to hear that our Call Center team was able to assist you and that, with the support of our supervisor, a solution was ultimately found, allowing you to proceed with your rental and receive the vehicle.
Regarding the payment card requirements, we would kindly like to clarify that the requirement for a physical payment card, whether credit or debit, is stated throughout the booking process, on our website, and within the rental terms and conditions. We understand that misunderstandings can occasionally occur, but this information is provided in advance to help ensure a smooth vehicle collection process.
With regard to the shuttle service, we operate shuttle transfers from both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 of Sofia Airport. The shuttle passes regularly at approximately 15-minute intervals at both terminals. The exact shuttle stop location is also described on the rental voucher provided prior to arrival. Should any difficulty arise in locating the shuttle, our team is always available by phone to provide immediate assistance.
Thank you once again for your feedback. We appreciate your comments, as they help us improve our service, and we will be in touch with you directly once the review of your case has been completed.
Best Regards,
