Phuket Island Tour

Very satisfied, everything went smoothly. We had an accident where someone else hit us, but since we were rushing to catch a flight, we didn't handle it and just left. They handled the car return without any questions. Love it! From now on, I will always buy full insurance and recommend everyone to get full coverage as well. Driving in unfamiliar places can be risky.

When picking up and returning the car, it was the same Thai woman, a plump lady who spoke Chinese. Her attitude was extremely unpleasant, made me want to slap her. Everything else was fine.

This was the most frustrating part of my entire Phuket trip. The default collision insurance from the platform had a 10,000 baht deductible, and I didn't read the details carefully. Later, when using the car, there was a minor collision and I reported it to the insurance. The Vios we rented had a scratch on the left front fender and a small scratch on the left front light. They charged us 6,000 baht when returning the car. When I contacted the rental company’s customer service, they said I bought the basic insurance which meant the rental company could deduct up to 10,000 baht as they pleased, without following any specific repair cost - they only needed a receipt. When I noticed there was no receipt for the charge, I went back to the counter, and they were reluctant to give me one, saying I didn't buy the extra insurance. It made no sense - I paid the money and couldn't even get a receipt? After insisting for a long time, they unwillingly gave me one. When I asked why the charge was so high, they said it was because we didn't buy extra insurance, and they proudly mentioned that someone just paid over 8,000 baht for a damaged tire. For a beat-up Vios, it felt like we were renting a BMW. I bet they make a lot just from these charges. I complained to the platform's customer service, and they said they had reminded us but we didn't notice a small text note. I suspect many people have suffered as we did. If they truly cared for their customers, why not make the warning more prominent?

I arrived ahead of the scheduled pickup time but was informed that the car had not yet arrived. After the scheduled pickup time, I still had to wait more than half an hour to get the car because the previous user didn’t fill up the gas tank and had to refuel, which caused the delay. Eventually, they extended the return time by half an hour.

Very satisfied, good attitude, new car, much better than Shenzhou.
