I booked an automatic GOLF for about 5500 RMB for 15 days, but the AVIS staff said they didn’t have any GOLF available and only had a Hyundai I20 from Korea for 780 pounds (including 90 pounds for Ireland), which is quite a difference. During the drive, I found the car in good condition, but it clearly lacked power. Later, I had to extend the rental by 2 days and, with the help of the renting service, the extension was set at 108 pounds for 2 days. After returning the car with 4500 kilometers driven over 17 days, we noticed a crack in the left front tire. The inspection staff said it was a minor issue and, since we had full insurance, we wouldn't need to pay extra. However, we were still charged an additional 20 pounds for tire repair, which we questioned since we had full insurance. As we were rushing to catch a flight, we didn't spend more time disputing it. All the staff who assisted us were courteous.
The car rental company operates quite professionally. At the airport, you need to ask the staff for directions as the location of the shuttle bus may have changed. I experienced a parking lot scratch, which was my fault. According to the policy, I needed to report it to the police, but without a dispute, the police wouldn't intervene. Calling both the emergency number and the rental company proved ineffective. The Avis locations near Oxford shown on Google Maps were all closed. Fortunately, the QEEQ platform offers 24/7 support. They advised me to use the online reporting platform to file the information and confirmed that police intervention was unnecessary. When returning the car, the Avis staff inspected it quickly, and £500 was directly charged to my credit card without requiring my signature. Thankfully, I had purchased supplementary insurance back in my home country. After providing photos and relevant information, QEEQ promptly processed the claim. This was my first time encountering an accident during a multi-country self-drive trip, but thanks to the supplementary insurance and QEEQ's reliable service, the situation was manageable. Much appreciated.
