1. They said they couldn't find the insurance I purchased when picking up the car; 2. I had specified the return time as 19:30 local time when I booked, but when I arrived, the rental store was already closed. I had to return the car the next day.

Backstab! Renting the car was fine, returning it was also fine. But after returning home, my credit card was suddenly charged £60 for cleaning. Actually, thanks to my children growing up, this was the cleanest car we've rented abroad so far, just needed a little cleaning. Complaining to the rental company got me a vague photo. If they found it dirty, they should have pointed it out and charged the cleaning fee at that time, I wouldn't have argued. They should provide proof when making accusations. It feels like small car rental companies lure you in and backstab you later.

Special mention to Mo at the Heathrow branch of Europcar. Fantastic service and a great help.

They got my booking mixed up with someone with the same last name. Utter morons

Like: Loved the car. Staff friendly and efficient
