BELGRADE CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Good attitude

I clearly stated before departure that I needed to cross into Albania, but Hertz did not respond that it was not allowed. I was only informed on the day of pickup, which seriously affected my trip.

There was a watermark on the front passenger seat, which they claimed we caused. We only took photos of the car's exterior before renting, trusting the rental platform, and did not photograph the interior. I believe many others wouldn't think to photograph the interior either. When returning the car, we asked a few other customers, and none of them had photographed the interior. We didn't know about the watermark until the staff pointed it out during the return process. If it had been our fault, we would have dealt with it before returning the car. Since we didn't photograph the interior, (and the rental company also had no proof that the watermark wasn't there before we rented it), we were charged 90 euros. Initially, another staff member asked for 140 euros, but after we argued with them, they reduced it to 90 euros. We had to rush for our flight, so we had no choice but to agree.

The attitude was great, very enthusiastic. The vehicle was new with only 7,000 kilometers driven. Strong power. Very good, I will rent from this company again next time.

Booked a Range Rover but received a smaller Range Rover Evoque. Couldn’t fit our luggage. Rental fee was unchanged, and no alternative provided after negotiation with your company. Therefore, giving a negative review!

There was no waste and no dirty car they said me your car is dirty. And they took 36 € they are lier.

This trip was arranged based on your company's promotion of visa-free travel and low costs in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. We booked a car through your platform, which turned out to be the biggest expense of the trip. We expected that this expense would bring a pleasant experience, but it turned into a headache throughout the journey. We were a group of six and ordered a 7-seater car, but we were given a 5-seater. The staff at the pickup location promised we could switch to a 7-seater the next day. Considering it was already 11 PM when we picked up the car, we decided to take it for the night. However, we were told the next day that we could only switch cars four days later. Our subsequent travel plans included accommodations in Bosnia and Herzegovina, so we couldn't stay in Belgrade for that long. We had to make do with the car, which meant four people cramped in the three seats in the back, causing discomfort and even motion sickness for one of us. When driving out of Serbia, the border police noticed the overloading and held our passports for over an hour. On the way from Mostar to Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina, we were stopped by police and fined 100 euros for overloading; the officer said the fine was supposed to be 200 euros, so he didn't issue a receipt. We were constantly worried about being fined again for overloading, but fortunately, we weren't stopped at other checkpoints.

The location is very convenient, and the pickup process is quick.

Before renting the car, I took photos and videos, but still couldn't avoid the rental pitfalls in Serbia (charging for damages upon return). This isn't just one or two companies' issue, it's a common practice. When I picked up the car, nobody checked it with me. Upon return, the inspection staff claimed there were scratches. I showed the prepared photos and videos, but they had polished the scratches when I picked up the car. The videos only showed the scratches on the front and rear, not on the doors. After comparing the evidence, the inspection staff apologized, but the counter staff refused to budge, focusing only on the door scratches which weren't in my photos. They even suggested I complain to the head office. Despite obvious evidence of continuous scratches, they insisted. Finally, they asked if I bought insurance. When I said no, they charged me 60 euros. I accepted since I had a flight to catch, considering it a lesson. Make sure to spend at least half an hour inspecting the car thoroughly when picking it up. If you're wealthy, feel free to ignore this advice.

Convenient and fast.

The staff at the outdoor pick-up location seemed a bit inattentive. During my first pick-up, they forgot to give me the vehicle registration. When I returned to the airport, they claimed I lost it and asked me to pay a 186 euro fee for the loss. As it was impossible to determine who was at fault, I had to pay the fee. They then gave me a replacement car and claimed they had already given me the keys, but later I found out the keys were still with the same staff member. Overall, the staff at the pick-up location were subpar, making it an unpleasant car rental experience.

The car rental company's counter was easy to find, the staff were friendly and provided detailed information, but there were a lot of people so we had to wait quite a while. After completing the paperwork and payment, we went to the parking lot to find a staff member in a green uniform who pointed out any existing damage on the vehicle before we signed off. You need to return the car with a full tank of gas, otherwise there will be additional charges. However, we were very dissatisfied with this car; the engine noise was unbelievably loud. Driving at around 20 mph, it sounded like driving over 100 in my own car, even with all the windows closed. Serbian drivers are very fast, so we naturally tended to accelerate, and at over 100 mph, the noise was unbearable. This was an extremely bad experience.

Booked a Smart, but got an Opel Corsa instead. The spare tire was broken, the dashboard showed a tire pressure warning, and the fuel tank had very little fuel.

The process of picking up and returning the car is quite complex and takes a considerable amount of time.

We arrived quite late, and the car rental website gave us the wrong model, so our luggage couldn't fit. Eurocar insisted that it wasn't their fault and wanted us to take the wrong car. Later, after a staff change, their attitude improved and we paid extra to change the car.

The service attitude was good, but I waited almost an hour to pick up the car (apparently waiting for the previous person to return it, and they even washed it again before giving it to me).

When communicating with the store about returning the car early, the staff said they would only charge for the days used and send the bill to the rental platform, which would then refund me. After returning, customer service asked for a recording and a handwritten statement. I've lived in Europe for almost ten years and believe that a promise is a promise, but I got cheated this time.

Foreign staff work really slowly. Even without other customers, I waited for half an hour.

The customer service staff were patient, enthusiastic, and answered our questions tirelessly. Their English was good, and communication was smooth.

The wait times for picking up and returning the car were very short, almost no waiting. The staff were very friendly and patient, even if they weren't fluent in English.
