On the 24th of September I contacted One Way Van Hire SL through their UK number on their website, as we wanted to hire a transit van to drive from London to Malaga on the 30th of September until the 5th of October. I left a message and Jonathan Eggett returned my call and told me that he would be able to supply the van. He emailed me a quote for £495 hire and £300 deposit and we booked it and paid directly by bank transfer to bank account 16326072 (SC 16-16-23). He confirmed the booking and payment by email and said an agreement would be emailed to me for signature and to notify him if no agreement received in 48 hours. 48 hours passed and no agreement so we tried to contact Jonathan both through telephone and email and left numerous messages, but never heard back from him. As the 30th arrived and no van made available at Autorama Hounslow as stated by Jonathan, we contacted the Spanish number on the website and Jeremy Griffiths answered.

Jeremy said loads of companies use the name One Way Van Hire and said we didn't book through his company and the bank account isn't theirs. He said Jonathan Eggett is an agent of One Way Van Hire SL and runs a company called Euro Easy Move Limited, Jeremy then said that he did see a request for a van for us but that no booking was ever made and they didn't have any van available for us anyway. I mentioned to Jeremy that I had been in touch with the police who told me that if a van isn't delivered to return to them and report it as fraud. After hanging up the phone I had a call immediately from Jonathan saying he had a call from Jeremy and only found out about the van not booked and that he was taken to hospital over the weekend and wasn't aware of my calls or emails, basically excuses. We have still not had our money returned.
 
We have since uncovered numerous negative comments, reviews and reports about these individuals and their companies and operations. We would advise any one considering doing business with these to think twice. By not delivering the van to us they have committed a crime. It appears that we are not the only ones to have been ripped off by these individuals, search TripAdvisor and the Olive Press to read more:
 

Jonathan's companies Euro Easy Move Limited & Pet Traveller Limited have both been struck off trading by Companies House.  Both company websites have gone off-line and One Way Van Hire is now back on-line and also now operating under a number of different website addresses, so be aware these individuals may be using a number of different websites in the UK, Spain, Portugal and France. If you check WhoIs you will find that Jeremy has a number of different website domain addresses registered under his name. We have been to the business address in Lincoln and through the other companies operating at the same address we were told that no one has seen Jonathan for a while and that he has been given 30 days to vacate the office he was using. Jonathan was also banned from driving for 40 months for failing to provide an alcohol specimen. Transporté Peninsular and Taxi4Pet are the latest company names they are using - Beware. They are also present on Facebook and promoting these businesses with a variety of Facebook pages.

Coming across the reports from others about this company reinforces the fact that these individuals are not to be trusted. I would urge anyone to not do business with any of these companies or individuals. I would also urge anyone that has been duped by them to contact the police and report it either by phone on UK number 0300 123 2040 or on-line at www.actionfraud.police.uk and in addition to make a denuncia to the Guardia Civil or Policia Nacional in your area or call 902 102 112 or direct at http://www.policia.es/denunweb/denuncias.html
