DELETING THIS APP TODAY

The reality is that, people in this world feel that, when they have one up on you. They’re better than you. I realized that with people in the customer service field. Especially, if it’s a light bill, phone bill, WiFi service, car note. These people act like we are in two different universes. They talk down they, they make it seem like you don’t have enough, or you can’t afford it. When all due reality. You are in a better place in life than they are. What I got to say is this. I like to tell people this. You’ll learn something after you do it wrong a few times. You’ll learn something after seeing someone else do it wrong a few times. Most importantly is you LEARN, but the real important lesson is what you do after you learn. This is a good company I will truly say. The punchline is, if you see one bad review, doesn’t make it bad. If you see two then there’s some truth. If you see three and still decide to go with it. You’re the best example for someone else to not do it wrong again. They knew better off your mistake.

Smooth and Easy

If you follow the instructions it’s an easy process. I got my vehicle a week later brand new.

Trash

No vehicle options in no states
I think it’s fake app to steal info

Scam

This car rental company is a total scam, plain and simple. They advertise one price—$234—then by the end of the day, they try to steal from you by forcing you to pay four times that amount for a whole month’s fee. The person on the chat is not just arrogant—they’re completely incapable of even basic understanding. I swear, this person has the brain of a two-year-old, zero education, and absolutely no business being in a customer service role. They’re trying to rob people, and they don’t even have the brains to hide it. This company is a disgrace—stay far, far away. They’re nothing but thieves and con artists.

Thank you

The two weeks you have been amazing Joey and the whole team has been so great answering every little question and the whole process has been smooth, I will definitely refer anyone Thank you Thank you

No cars

For Texas it is showing no cars after I applied for a vehicle.

Easy process

$700 gets you in a new vehicle, all you have to do is provide proof of income and choose weekly, biweekly, or monthly payments. It can get really expensive so if you drive long distances often you can run up the bill because they charge extra over a certain amount of miles. You can also return the vehicle whenever you like.

Satisfied Customer

I was very skeptical at first because this program sounded too good to be true. My experience was amazing. Joey was awesome in assisting and explaining the process. The process was longer I expected but in the end it was worth the wait.

They changed the way to get a car

This guys changed forever the way to get a car. No more dealerships with their tricks for me. They have a great vehicle selection (New vehicles!) with a very reasonable priced lease to own program. Their customer service is superb and the best part you always communicate with a human not a bot. Highly recommended!!

Scam

I would not recommend DriveItAway to anyone. Over two months ago, they promised my husband that we could get a car, but we are still waiting. Throughout this time, their false promises and lack of follow-through have cost us thousands of dollars.

We explained to them repeatedly that we were using a rental car and had to extend it multiple times due to their delays and empty assurances. Their complete failure to deliver on what they promised has caused us significant financial stress and inconvenience.

This company is unreliable and dishonest, and we are now planning to pursue legal action against them for the damages they have caused. Beware of their practices—they will not deliver what they promise.

Thank You

Although waited a little longer then I thought I would have to I love this new vehicle. Joey was patient with my constant questions and a true professional.

Total scam

This is a scam. I paid the initial fee to get the vehicle booked and was told that I had to get an insurance quote. They listed the three insurance companies that they use, I got an affordable low monthly payment quote and they said that it only could be through progressive which is usually higher. I even asked them ri split the monthly insurance payments and add it to my weekly rate. They could not give me a straight answer. It also clearly states in the contract that the renter has to provide insurance, which would be me. Which I was fine with. I make enough money to cover the weekly payment ontop of insurance, but cannot afford a huge down payment on a new vehicle right now. The people that own this business should be ashamed for luring people in they are in the same situation that I am in.

Horrible!

This app sells you a service they can’t provide if your number is attached to someone else’s account. This service doesn’t have the capacity to assist you if you own the number that is attached to an account. They’re response is “
Unfortunately, we do not have a solution at this time.

We have to protect users' accounts and prevent fraud. What if the user wanted us to delete you?

This company is not equipped to verify phone numbers that is no longer in use. I will never sign up with this company! The customer service is horrible and rude!

Thanks guys!

I was paying close to $2k a month for a local cash rental company and IT WAS KILLING ME!! The car itself was old, it shook when I drove it, the tires were bad and even after being notified of all of this, they said do you want it or not!! I had to because life had happened and I was desperate! Then an angel in the form of Driveitaway was sent to me via my WorkPerks!
I checked out the website and realized that I could get a new car for less than what I was paying these guys AND part of my payments would be applied to me actually owning the car! No BRAINER! I signed up, paid my deposit, scheduled pick up, paid for my first week, picked up the car in less than 10 minutes and I was driving it away!! The car was so cute and clean and guess what any maintenance issues come up, they will take care of it!
Driveitaway has been great for me! I appreciate the service, the team and especially my car!! Thanks guys!!!

Seriously: worst app I’ve ever used. Not exaggerating

1st the very annoying and very useless not pops up while I’m trying to browse. Then I’m only shown ~5 cars. Well one actually- in 5 different colors. Clicking on one causes the app to flip out then after that every car I click on - there’s no way to do anything but send my information. What’s the point of the app? Oh and when the useless bot couldn’t answer anything- it asked me to leave my question. That was the clumsiest garbage ever. Once I finally got through to where I could supposedly ask my question - there was no way to do so. The app basically froze.

Response from developer

At present, our services are limited to specific regions. Therefore, if you did not encounter any vehicles, it is likely due to your location being outside of our current coverage area. Upon opening the application, a notification should have appeared stating "unavailable in your area at this time." We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

Awesome Experience!

Joey made this process seamless from start to finish. The paperwork was simple and delivery was quick and easy.

Doesn’t work

I guess the app doesn’t work anymore because live chat doesn’t send your message and
The reserve vehicle button is greyed out. And no one answers the phone.

Response from developer

There was an app update, I see you were using version 2.2.  That was likely was the issue. Also may have been a location. DriveItAway is a Drive Now Decide Later program that requires Income as a factor, but credit is not a factor to begin. You pay for the use of the vehicle, and your payments will count towards the purchase if you decide to commit. We are currently in the following markets: Michigan: Ann Arbor, Chesterfield, Garden City, East Pointe, Grand Ledge, Kalamazoo, Madison Heights and Monroe New Jersey: Haddonfield and Newark Pennsylvania: Philadelphia *Must reside within 75 miles of the Vehicle Hub at the current time.

Thanks

Joey was a major help he walked me threw everything and even when I had some grey areas to me be he explained it and put me at ease thanks Joey!
