Green Commute Initiative Avis 

The Green Commute Initiative is so easy. I just got it through HR in a day. And, it has the lowest surcharge of any scheme!

Green Commute Initiative make buying a bike through the bike to work scheme really easy for employees.

I am extremely happy with my bike , a super fast service and very easy to apply, i must say it's been my best service I've ever had, thank you the Green commute Initiative.

Amazing , only took one day to order the bike get approved and out for delivery , really good rates and super happy with the results would definitely recommend

Used their GCI Instant. Invoice paid late afternoon and recieved emails and voucher very next morning. This is how a C2W scheme should work. Plus £1 fee instead of £100s I paid using other C2W provider...Highly Recommend.

Incredibly easy process and very fast. From application to receiving the collection voucher was less than 2 working days!

I can’t thank Rob and his team enough. I was left in an impossible situation that was not GCI fault or my fault. I made a plea to Rob and his team for some help and they went above and beyond to resolve my issue to a level that was satisfactory enough for me to be able to accept. They didn’t need to do anything and I was aware of this before making the plea for some help. But they did and I will be forever grateful. Thanks guys for understanding the uniqueness of my situation and doing all you could do to make it as acceptable as possible. I think your team can take that single one star review and add that star onto mine because you definitely gave me greater than a 5 star experience. Thanks so much.

GCI web page was self explanatory for the process, but when got told things slightly differently by one of the shops I've contacted GCI and got assurance and guidance.
I am surprised how quick everything works and am very happy that my corporate Cycle to work scheme is with them.

Definitely the best cycle to work scheme. I would encourage anybody to read comparisons and see which scheme makes sense for them, as some shops only accept certain voucher schemes. If you are buying through an independent bike shop then GCI is almost certainly the right choice. Fees are the lowest and there's no price limit. Our HR dept was initially unsure as they were only just setting up the cycle to work scheme and didn't realise there were multiple options. However GCI have some really helpful and clear webpages which I pointed them to and they also found GCI responded extremely quickly to enquires compared to other schemes which AFAIAA never replied at all. The low fees made the most sense for me and also for the company, as it actually reduced their costs compared to my normal salary.

I had a frame custom made and wheels handbuilt, so not an off-the-shelf bike at all, and the GCI voucher made this much more affordable. The bike shop passed on the 5% voucher fee, which seems entirely reasonable to me (still a big saving). HR sent me the link to the form once I had the final amount, and at each step I got a very quick response from GCI and I had the final voucher to give to the bike shop in less than two days.

I think other lower rated reviews on trustpilot misunderstand what GCI is. Think of it purely as a voucher scheme; they are not responsible for your bike purchase experience generally. My impression from every interaction has been that GCI is very well thought out and run, and I can only recommend them.

Thank you GCI team for your great work!

GCI made this process straightforward and painless.

Any quires where dealt with both swiftly and very friendly service on the phone, no being put on hold;)

I would highly recommend GCI to anyone interested in using their works Cycle To Work Scheme.

Really efficient process - can’t recommend highly enough!

These guys are ON IT.

Swiftly responsive, massively helpful website. What more can I say?

The process is explained perfectly on their website, customer services were so helpful when I emailed. I signed my documentation and recieved my voucher within an hour.

Very slick, would use again, but hopefully I won't have to because I LOVE my new bike 🥰

Efficient, effective, easy to use. Identify the bike, confirm with shop that they are with GCI, work out total required. Get your payroll ID. Logon website, enter details. Get the approval the follow on the code for the shop to release the bike.

Any issue, just phone or email GCI and the same responsive / supportive process received.

It will be like in heaven if all companies are like this.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I decided to take advantage of the cycle to work scheme, but GCI made the process beyond simple. They were initially very helpful over the phone, explaining exactly how the scheme worked and continued to ensure that everything was completed quickly and efficiently. It literally took minutes to complete the process. I would have no hesitation in recommending GCI to anyone who is considering or ready to sign up for the cycle to work scheme. Thank You.

Fantastic service. Very quick and efficient process to complete. Everything explained in a very clear and helpful way and to top it all the whole application process including receipt of my Collection Voucher and notification from GCI to my chosen store was completed in the same day. I heartily recommend Green Commute Initiative.

Have Type-2 diabetes and not managing well - lack of exercise being a contributing factor. I had previously been a gym resident but, at 60, the aches and pains after HIT sessions became a pain!
Discovered a Cycle-2-Work scheme through my employer, managed by the Green Commute Initiative (CGI)
I can find my way around a computer but have to say that the CGI application is straight-forward, with responses, supporting documents - including the all important Collection Voucher, provided in the stated timelines.
No excuses, no technical issues - CGI do what they say they are going to do.
To put a feather in CGI's cap, my local approved cycle supplier (Terrys Cycles, South Glos.) commented that obtaining confirmation of order and subsequent payment, is easier and quicker than other national branded companies.
Giving CGI 5 stars for their excellent (painless) service

I can't recommended GCI highly enough. I'm still amazed at how quick and easy it's been to sort out a new bike. The whole process from enquiry to collecting my new bike took a week. As someone who cycles every day this was brilliant. I should have done it years ago. Many, many thanks.

Super quick and easy. Also, the staff were very helpful and friendly when contacted.

Amazingly quick service from Fiona, when i had to amend my voucher. Changed it within an hour. So helpful and quick response. The whole process took less than a day.
