    My daughter hired a van from this company. The hand brake was faulty and it rolled on her driveway causing expensive damage to her sons car and minor damage to the bumper on the front of the van. They would not admit liability and charged for the damage to the bumper and threw in some “damage” above the rear wheel for good measure. Thankfully she had paid a £15 excess charge when hiring, or they could have fleeced her for more than the £300 they did. Do not hire a van from this company, unless you are willing to pay for any damage they can make up on return. Reported to Trading Standards.

      The vehicles handbrake was check by our mechanic and is operating perfectly and the brakes were fully check 3 weeks ago as part the vans ongoing maintenance. She said the van was parked on a driveway on a hill and rolled down so we can only assume the handbrake wasn't applied with enough force. The ''damage'' on the rear wheel arch is definitely new damage and was a large heavy gouge along the rear panel through the metal. The customer was shown the photos when she collected the van showing no damage on that panel. This is the whole reason we take images of the vans before hirers and allow our customers to view these anytime. The repair estimate for this damage is £680 + vat so not just a scuff and yes its lucky she took our damage waiver. We are a small local family run business and take pride in our reputation but when customers damage our vehicles we need to charge for this.

    Absolute con artists. Hire a van from this company at your peril - they will invent damage and charge you, despite photographic evidence in your favour. Despicable company. Never again.

      THIS IS THE SAME CUSTOMER AS THE COMPLAINT ABOVE. The van was damaged in 2 places when returned. The front bumper corner damaged and rear wheel arch had a large heavy gouge along the rear panel through the metal. The customer was shown the photos when she collected the van showing no damage on the rear arch or front bumper. This is the whole reason we take images of the vans before hirers and allow our customers to view these anytime. The repair estimate for this damage is £680 + vat so not just a scuff. We are a small local family run business and take pride in our reputation but when customers damage our vehicles we need to charge for this.

    Taking these con people to court. I took pictures of the van when we left it. They then claimed damage on an estimate and charged me. Offered to show them photos but no they are not interested. Reported to traiding standards as well So in summery, they can make any claim for damages and you have no come back even if you have pictures. Its your money so risk it at your own cost.

    Shocking service, hired a van 2 weeks in advance to do a big removal to London, ABS WARNING LIGHT was on beeping and beeping we were told its fine just drive it. In the end I found another van elsewhere and was told I would be reimbursed for my trouble. However when I came back they refused to refund me any money. I have been a customer of AK Van Rental for 6 years but never again.

    I could not have been happier with the service I received. From the warm welcome to the remarkable service received from the young lady on the front desk. The van we hired was immaculate and I will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend.
