Calgary, Banff, and Jasper

On the day of pickup, I found out the fuel gauge was below F when I was leaving the gate. I immediately complained to the staff at the gate, but they said the tank was full. Since it was my first time renting a car, I believed them, thinking there was a problem with the gauge. Driving from Calgary to Banff, a distance of over a hundred kilometers, I had to add 18.452 liters of fuel. From Banff to Jasper, a distance of over three hundred kilometers, I only needed 20.797 liters. Just an additional 2.345 liters could cover 200 kilometers. I only drove a total of 1115 kilometers during the entire trip. Can ZuZuChe provide an explanation?

The staff at the Calgary airport counter kept pushing for an upgrade. When I refused, they looked visibly displeased. While I was picking up the car, one of them sarcastically told a colleague, 'I suggested they upgrade, but they didn't want to. I really don't like this car.' The colleague responded with equal disdain, 'I don't like it either.' Additionally, during the return, I inspected the car with the staff and reminded him that I had rented a GPS and placed it on the steering wheel. He said everything was fine and didn’t verify the charges with me; he just asked if I was paying with a credit card (which was already authorized during pickup). He confirmed there were no issues with the car, so I agreed to the payment immediately. To my surprise, I later found an 'equipment replacement' charge on the receipt after I reached the boarding gate. I reported it to the rental car customer service right away, but Alamo never responded. When I called Alamo's customer service today, they said the GPS was missing and kept telling me they would escalate my issue. It's been two weeks now. Do I need to record the entire return process to protect myself? How can they simply decide the GPS is missing? The inspection staff charged me for it immediately. Are they taking advantage of foreign travelers? The rental contract included airport construction fees and taxes, but these were also overcharged ... what a hassle.

The staff at the Alamo rental location in Calgary were very good, patient, and meticulous.

Very good

The staff had a good attitude and the process was smooth.
