Stay away. These guys will rob you blind whilst treating you like scum and create hell for you financially. The most morally bankrupt company that I have ever come across.

So started with alpha car finance well, but there was mis- communication on repayments from fortnightly to weekly somehow and in the meantime they immobilised the car for 1 weeks repayments outstanding and as I wanted fortnightly repayments, so after getting hundreds of calls and emails back and forth of nonsense with a Malaysian based call centre, I had become bankrupt, I delivered the car to a place to be sent back, and yet I receive emails about alpha car finance to sign a document that they want via email to accept via email, and yet I h...Read more
ave sent them my bankruptcy number and start date I still get emails wanting me to accept the document before it gets sent to me to have a look, yet I am bankrupt they don’t understand it, hopefully I complaint to afsa and Asics will do the trick.im happy to chat with You @Matt.A to solve this problem

Poor experience Alpha Car Rental - Tullamarine
Car Rental Branch Manager at Tullamarine gave me an absolute barrelling because I had the temerity to query a charge. His response ... "Nah mate, you're wrong". When I actually quoted the bank statement I was looking at, he continued to tell me I was wrong before hanging up on me! I've used Alpha before but wont be back... if that's what the management are like, I dread to think how the rest of the business operates.

Shonky business avoid at all costs
Went to pick up my car on a lease from the Dandenong branch. They had over a week to have this car ready. I was not allowed to view, start or drive car before signing contracts. Did all the paperwork started the car only to find no radio working. The car also had no mats, there was buttons missing and the condition of the car was poor even though they said it was detailed. I returned the car to the yard and they advised the radio would take weeks to fix but I can rent a another car in even worse condition but would have to pay for the rental of...Read more
high cars. Cancelled the contract on the spot as this place is very dodgy. Told I had to wait up to 2 weeks for a refund. I was not allowed to have my payments come out of my bank account they had to come from a debit/credit card. Even if you are desperate dont go here. These people have zero customer service and these cars are overpriced and dangerous.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Great Service!
Alpha helped me get a great car when no one else would. The ease of one weekly payment including rego and insurance was really great. Had a few different Account Managers over the duration of the lease but Rhea was outstanding. Very considerate and patient when my personal circumstances changed and I appreciated all the help she gave me. Thanks Alpha!

Customer care and service is absolute crap. No professionalism.
I had a hardship due to a medical issue. This was for a 6 month period.
After the hardship I am informed I am in multiple thousands of arrears.
Spoke to account manager and he hung up after saying I won't discuss anything with you
Email sent to other person and told payments were due during that hardship.
I have sent receipts of all payments due since the end of hardship and no reply as yet. Arrears should be 0
I will go to the ombudsman today and will also seek legal advice.
My suggestion to all do not go near this mob of incompetent fools

No response
it's my understand this service is for those with a less than great financial position but obviously need to be able to pay.
I read plenty of stories of cars being immobilised for missed payments etc. I wouldn't put myself in that possible ever especially if it was my transport. Fair is fair.
It's my understanding the car is a previous rental leased on the security of the car which is fitted with an immobiliser with payments to compensate the increased risk.
I'm not sure what kind of customer they're looking for but I feel more weight is on one side of the scales than the other here.

Great service and car
The finance team in particular Kristina were very friendly and helpful. They organised finance and got me into a near new vehicle when no other company was prepared to lend me money due to my credit report. Everything is explained in detail so their are no surprises and if it wasn’t for Alpha Finance i would be using public transport. Thank you for everything. I recommend Alpha to anybody needing a car.

Total scam
The customer service recieved from these guy’s was disappointing... reading other people’s reviews I should’ve known not to bother even applying for a finance through alpha. So bassically the amount I was allowed to borrow was $119pw over 5 years and the care I was offered was a 2016 Holden barina that has done over 70,000kms and if you figure out the re payments that’s a total of $30,000 for a old barina. I didn’t accept this because I would go buy a brand new barina for that price. Also once I told them no, another lady called me from alpha a...Read more

Abusive Demanding and Misleading
Not missed a payment... Demanded to pay for arrears that suddenly appeared after receiving an email saying I'm in arrears over $1000 and I've not missed or been late for a repayment ever or ever received a receipt or invoice stating a fee/admin charge????.... And constantly threats vehicle will be immobilised..
Situation still not sorted and have turned to ombudsman..

en 12 months into having the car) was told to pay for the repairs after I had an independent mechanic tell me Noone will put this car back on the road as it's done too many ks (over 300km) impossible for me to drive over 300km in under 12 months... Anyway car was exchanged towed back was given a new one and then was called to say I need my car sent back cus there was a recall.... My new car tyres needed changing after 2months...

Car is awesome, customer service is pathetic
I understand you have to pay and so on, I was offered a awesome deal, to have a pause on payments, due to their pathetic insurance they have, I thought I got a car with real insurance, it is sub par at best and very bad. Fast forward few weeks, account manager rings me and says, $250 or I turn car off cause you behind on payments. The deal was two weeks off, then normal for 4 weeks then increased for 5 weeks, ok, good deal. But no one told ppl lower down and surprise supervisor has day off. Luckily car not turned off and supervisor kept car...Read more
running, on the original agreement. But with the lack of insurance, the bad customer service and the likelyhood of not being able to upgrade at the two year mark, I am trying to find ways to get out of this contract, Like most ppl, I need a car for work, and their insurance company now no longer offers insurance for my type of work, meaning I could be stuck with this car for five years. I understand a contract is a contract but I was not told they did not have real insurance, that their insurance company would have a change of heart, and did not think that the exit fees would be higher than the cars worth especially after the resale they would get and so on. I have been offered a better deal for my line of work, with a car straight out of factory and real insurance and no hassles. But stuck with high exit fees and servicing coming up, I wonder a lot about decisions. just a review for those considering the hardship you could entail.3 comments

Melissa H.asked
Hi I was wanting to know what happens if the car is written off in an accident? I understand the vehicle would be insured for both myself and someone else if I am at fault. BUT what happens if it is a write off half way through the contract? Do you get a new car? Does the contract end? What happens to the payments. Please reply thank you

You need to call them, but be prepared to either have to hire another car or put up with no car for months on end
