Booked a Volkswagen Golf, received a Fiat instead. Gas stations in Iceland are mostly self-service and have a set limit. In a rush, the tank was slightly short, and they demanded it be topped up plus a fine of 5000 Krona. The staff were deliberately difficult and rude, almost causing us to miss our early morning flight.
I bought full insurance on Zuzuche, but when picking up the car from the rental company, they insisted I purchase another full insurance for 160 Euros. After negotiating, they said if I don't buy it, they would hold 2000 Euros on my credit card. I can understand pre-authorization and deposits when renting cars domestically, but it's normally unnecessary for renting abroad. They blatantly bullied Chinese customers. A German couple next to me only needed to verify their order information and sign their names to get their keys and collect their car, which was conveniently parked right at the entrance. On that day, it was raining in Iceland, and after we bought the insurance, they simply handed us the keys and told us to find our car in the parking lot ourselves. Normally, I could understand this procedure at airports, but comparing the two experiences was disheartening. Aren't German and Chinese customers both customers? This isn't just about the insurance scam; it's about the extra effort paid because of bad weather and still receiving subpar service.
No Chinese service, and they tried to upsell insurance. If you don't buy their full insurance, they hold 11,111 euros on your credit card. We were in a hurry and didn't argue with them, partly because of the language barrier. It seemed impossible to hold such a large amount, so we didn't pursue it further. The GPS provided by the rental service was mediocre; our phone worked better. They gave us a Jeep with over 60,000 km, and its condition was really poor.
Excellent service, the staff at the rental company were very handsome, enthusiastic and considerate. Their driving skills were top-notch. I had booked a SUZUKI VITARA, but they replaced it with a HONDA CRV, which was an automatic, very new, and easy to drive. I will definitely rent from them again next time I visit Iceland.
The car we got was a bit battered on the outside, but it didn't bother us since it consumed next to nothing (which is a big bonus with Iceland price for petrol) and even though it looked small on the outside (Toyota Yaris), we could easily fit in 3 people with all camping gear. Pick up was easy, so was the drop off. I took pictures of all the bruises our car had and was a bit worried they might blame me for some of them even if they were not my fault (bad Trustpilot reviews), but they did not complicate at all.
