Even though I had pre-paid in full online while in China, upon picking up the car at the Sheraton Hotel at Heathrow Airport, I was suddenly asked to pay an additional £1,200 or I would not be allowed to take the car. After lengthy negotiations proved futile and urgently needing the car, I had to reluctantly pay despite knowing it was likely a scam. I had clearly rented an MPV but was given a Mitsubishi SUV instead, which was handed over after a cursory wash resulting in a long wait time. Upon returning the car, despite no accidents or collisions, I was accused of causing scratches and a loose left front wheel cover. Only after arguing did a white woman employee skillfully kick the cover back into place, suggesting everyone at the company knew it wasn't my fault. Nonetheless, I was charged £250 for the scratch! I rented the car for a week in early August and by National Day still hadn't seen the £1,000 refunded to my card even after deducting the £250. Where did the money go? Even if Zuzuche.com didn't take the money directly, you facilitated this transaction. Who's handling this matter? The staff at the airport branch, mainly from the Middle East, were extremely rude. I will never rent from them again and will advise everyone to avoid them. I urge Zuzuche to seriously investigate this issue, or I will document and share this experience with everyone.
Car was adequate for our trip. No problems with counter staff very courteous. Had problems finding the drop off location, street name not the same as given instructions. Otherwise it was a good experience.
The whole thing was a little duplicitous for me. They advertise the car at one price (£38) but when you turn up there is a compulsory insurance that makes the price of the rental completely unreasonable. I normally rent with Sixt but wanted to try this to see what it was about. The rental with Sixt was smooth, efficient, friendly and for the same car ALL in was £78 (different weekend). The rental with Easirent was average and inconveniently located (at best) and ALL in was £135. I don't mind a little inconvenience as a trade off if its better value or the service is out of this world but to be downgraded in every way and pay way more for it was a little surprising. Thankfully I had also read the small print in the contract and noticed the completely unreasonable requirements that they stipulate you require when turning up.
On arrival was offered a GLA this is NOT an equivalent car or 'upgrade' as they later told me. I booked a V60 Estate or Similar, I expected something similar to this, there was no cars in their car park remotely close to this model.
An upgrade was given but still not an estate and after a long discussion.
