I myself always take online reviews with a pinch of salt (in fact this is my first ever review) but Getaround are a company to avoid.
On one occasion, I scratched a rental car. It was my mistake and was more than happy to pay. Getaround then sent a bill for £700 (roughly the value of the Zafira I'd rented) and refused to provide any logic on how they had come up with this figure.
The communications we had with the company were unhelpful, the upshot of their emails being 'you made a mistake, we get to decide how much you pay'.
I have taken the photo of the damage (a 2 inch scratch and dent) to several independent mechanics and have been quoted anywhere from £200 to £400 for the repair. Where did Getaround come up with their figure?
I'll let you be the judge of that.
In a crowded market place, the bad practices of a company like Getaround will hopefully make them obsolete - the Bebo of car rentals maybe. I would really suggest using either Zipcar or a traditional service which funnily enough ( considering their reputation as frauds) I have never had a problem with.
