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
