The first time I was alone, it was quick. The second time, there were no cars available and I waited for half an hour. By the time my turn came, there were two people ahead of me, and I waited another 20 minutes. It felt somewhat inefficient, but overall acceptable since language barriers need time.
Eurocar was too eager to charge for late return even though it was not our fault that the car drop off was not easy to find and there was no one at the counter when we arrived to return the car key.
Car interior was very dirty. It seemed like the car was not cleaned and attended to after the previous driver, and was given to us right after it was returned which got us a little taken aback. No staff from Europcar assisted us with the car checks during pick up. The staff at the terminal 1 perth airport pick up counter seemed really unfriendly as well. We had opted for the navigation device but was informed that all the GPS devices in their possession is not working. We were even told that it was a special request and not an option. If it is not an option then it shouldn’t have been offered to us in the first place when we were making the reservation through EasyRentCars.com
In the end they managed to find one that is working and hand it to us but we were disappointed by their failure to check the condition of the GPS with us. The GPS works fine when connected to the car after ignition. But died after the car engine was switched off. Hence we were unable to preset our destinations into the GPS offline. The navigation library of the GPS is underwhelming too. We are unable to route to at least 4 of our destinations even though we entered the correct address. There were no matches to be found.
Staff also try to hardsell their insurance coverage despite us telling them we have purchased one with AXA which was offered to us by EasyRentCars.com
Despite all that, the staff at the drop off at Gordon Street Perth City was friendly and accommodating.
It’s my first time with Europcar and it will probably be my last.
About QEEQ:8.0/10
Easy to use interface. However, would be great if easyrentcars.com can liaise with their respective car rental partners to create a more pleasant experience.
For example, the insurance coverage for the car.
“Car was dirty and damaged, with head-rests missing; customer service little responsive & not helpful”
About Europcar:6.0/10
The ground staff was very friendly and helpful.
I was upgraded to a bigger vehicle, as the one rented was not available.
The car unfortunately was not in the condition I expected it to be in:
- I was told it would be perfectly fine
- It was scratched and bumped
- It was dirty outside and inside (full of sand and dust)
- We found it with the backseats were reclined
- Two of the head-rests for the backseats were missing
- It seems the car had not been checked and cleaned after the previous rental
The Europcar customer service was unfortunately neither very responsive nor helpful.
