Overall service was good, and the staff were very friendly. I originally chose an X-Trail but got a Ford KUGA instead (same price). The car was very new, with less than 7000 km.
The return process was quick. After parking the car in the rental company's lot, the staff checked if the fuel tank was full and briefly inspected the car's exterior.
Everything was fine
But a few days later, I noticed a charge of AUD 31.75 for fuel on my credit card. I had refueled the car at the BP station next to the airport right before returning it, within an hour. Not sure what the reason was, but I don't want to pursue it further.
I specifically chose a rental company with Chinese language support because, although I can handle basic English communications like ordering food or booking hotels, renting a car involves signing a full English contract with lots of details and technical terms I may not understand. A fully Chinese service process is crucial for avoiding misunderstandings. However, both pickup and dropoff services were in English. I even asked if they had staff who could provide service in Chinese, but the answer was no. While the rental process was smooth, the lack of Chinese service was still concerning.
Everything else was great. The staff at the rental counter were very helpful and patient. However, the male employee inspecting the car upon return had a poor attitude.
Rented from Melbourne and returned in Hobart. At that time, Budget was the only company that could meet this requirement. Both the rental and return processes were smooth. Later, I received a charge of 16.84 AUD, probably due to a traffic violation.
