The management is considerate and fully trustworthy. The car was clean and tidy when picked up. Returning the car was at 5 AM; we just parked at Christchurch Airport (Hertz parking area) and left the keys at the unattended Hertz counter. It felt great to be trusted.
Dealing with Hertz was very easy; just filled out a few forms and got the keys to pick up the car myself. There was no inspection. However, the car given to me wasn't great, it had over 50,000 kilometers on it, which is quite old for a rental car. The engine wasn't very powerful, and the air conditioning barely worked. I rented it for 16 days, mostly driving on mountain roads, and was constantly worried if it would hold up. Thankfully, there were no major problems. I rented cars three times in Australia and New Zealand, and this was the longest rental period, but the car was the oldest. The other two cars had only done a little over 1,000 kilometers and were in much better condition. Hertz is a big company; their cars should be better maintained. Returning the car was even easier; I just found the office, handed over the keys, and that was it. No inspection needed, probably because I had full insurance.
Picking up the car was convenient. The staff asked if we wanted to buy a tank of fuel at a price lower than the market rate and return the car empty, which was a good deal. They also reminded us to use the fuel until it was very empty. Additionally, they provided us with maps.

About Hertz:6.0/10
Although we had pre paid the collision damage waiver, Hertz advised this was not the case and charged for this again. They also denied that we had paid a deposit despite showing them the Qeeq receipt. When asked to see his screen I pointed out his own system showed a $200 deposit. The Hertz rep advised the Qeeq agreement was noting to do with them. Total agreed to paid via Qeeq $1,034.19 total charged by Hertz $1,219.94 on top of the $244.13 deposit paid. Accordingly total charged $1,464.07 against the agreed $1,034.19 an extra cost of $429.88!
