On the morning of March 15th, I found the car wouldn't start. The rental company came to the rescue and insisted it was my fault for forgetting to turn off the lights (though I was sure everything was off). Miraculously, the battery went flat again at 3 PM on March 16th, almost making me miss my flight. In frustration, I abandoned the car and left. They then blamed me again, saying the driving time was too short to charge the battery. I said I didn't leave the car parked for an extended period. After the flight, I discovered unexpected charges on my credit card: 160 euros and 460 euros. Even though I had full insurance, their refusal to acknowledge the battery issue was infuriating. This is what you get for renting a car for 50 RMB per day from this company. The rental platform didn't promptly contact the rental company to resolve the issue; I had to follow up myself. I wanted to ask what would have happened if this issue occurred when driving to a cliffside two days earlier.
Was advised to go to Easy Rent on first floor no mention of Surprice at all. Not one panel of the car clear of scratches and bumps.
Warning light wouldn’t go off was told it was tyre pressure and was advised that it’s ok when they kicked the wheel. Dreadful rattling noises.
The car had a number of minor scratches on the bodywork, hub caps and wheel rims (normal wear and tear, given the car's purpose!). The agent left me in no doubt that a scratch would cost hundreds of pounds. They had not made any effort that I could see to repair previous damage. He took detailed pictures of the car with his I-pad so I did the same with my phone.
This made me reluctant to use the car as much as I had planned to, as the local driving and condition of the roads was poor. There were also a number of poor reviews online to back up my concerns.
However, when I returned the car the agent took lots of photos, inside and out. I did the same.
The car was given a clean bill of health and I was told my deposit would be returned in a few days.
Although everything worked out fine, I was made to feel somewhat uneasy about dealing with the company.
