Simple and very pleasant staff

This summer, I booked an SUV through QEEQ for 15 days. After landing directly in Paris, the car pickup at Charles de Gaulle Airport went smoothly. The counter staff didn't engage in any upselling. The car was new and clean. The roads in France were excellent, and driving was fast and stable.

The front desk guy was quite humorous and didn't try to upsell.

Service attitude was acceptable

When I arrived, the line was very long, and I waited quite a while. The service lady's attitude wasn't very good, possibly because it was crowded and her English was poor. However, she did confirm if my luggage could fit into the rented convertible mini. So, there wasn't much to complain about. Returning the car was very convenient; as soon as I drove in, staff came up to guide and check the car's condition. The return process was smooth and quick!

I’ve rented from Europcar many times over the past few years, and I've never experienced the hustle that I was confronted with in Toulouse Blagnac. I arrived an hour before my scheduled pickup time, and without calling over to the parking garage, the rep told me that my car was not ready, but that she could provide me with different car for a €50 additional fee. I chose to wait an hour. When I asked her if there was a chance that my car would be ready before the scheduled time, she guaranteed me that it would not, but she also guaranteed me that it would be ready at exactly the scheduled time. Clearly, this was a deception – pay €50 more and leave now, or we’ll make you wait an hour. Then when I did rent the vehicle, another rep tried twice to convince me to upgrade my insurance, even after I showed him that I had already upgraded insurance through Easy Car, and he tried twice to convince me to sign off on the agreement that would allow me to return the car without a full tank, even after he admitted that it would cost considerably more than if I filled the tank, which I said was not a problem for me. I've never had an experience like this in other Europcar agencies that I dealt with over the years: Paris, Montpellier, and Millau. Unless Europcar is willing to address these issues, I will never again rent a car from them at the Toulouse airport.
