mobility scooter hire benidorm

scotsgiz

so we have just returned from a weeks holiday in the beni once again an amazing holiday in an amazing place

sadly this time we booked in a hurry and i forgot to book a mobility scooter(double buggy) for my blind/disabled wife through easyhire what an experience that created

sadly amigos24 and easyhire were fully booked which are to be fair excellent companys to hire from as we have hired from trhem for years with never any issues great prices and reasonable deposits

which brings me to our experience with butterfields mobiility hire

as they were the only people who had one available and although thier prices are very much inflated than any other company and double the deposit

when it was delivered i was instructed of all the rules like a schoolchild i'm a 57 year old

on the first nights use our granddaughter(10) got tired after walking so on the last street to our hotel she stood beside her gran on the buggy

the next morning i got what i could only class as a telling off over the phone by butterfields threatening us with police fines for having three people on the buggy

sadly this caused my wife through her mental disability to NOT use the buggy again for the full holiday as she felt she was being watched

now as we all know seeing kids on scooters is a regular thing in beni so i asked the police what the situation is the reply i got was they dont like groups of young people on the buggys

kids with parents are rarely approached!!

so you can all read into this as you will but I would advise you all to steer clear of butterfields mobility as there are far better and cheaper companys out there

Welcome to the community! I am so sorry you had such a bad time with the company and your wife felt like she was being watched and didn't want to use the mobility scooter. I hope you had a lovely time there despite this.

in there defense you would not have been insured for having 3 people on a 2 seater mobility scooter i would think yourself lucky you were not involved in an accident

when my wife suffers from paranioa after losing her sight even after speaking to the police for clarification still had little effect to how she felt
