Picking up the car was quite complicated. First, they didn't have the car model we booked and kept pushing us to upgrade. The rental company even had a Chinese-speaking person call us to persuade us to upgrade. After we insisted on not upgrading, they initially said there were no cars and we'd have to wait 30 minutes. I agreed to wait, but then the customer service representative disappeared. After half an hour, they still hadn't returned, so we had to find another representative to finally get the keys. When we went to the parking lot to pick up the car, the attendant wasn't there either. We waited around 20 minutes without seeing anyone. Since we were in a hurry, we inspected the car ourselves and left as there were no issues.
Europcar forced us to buy extra insurance during the rental process. Due to language barriers, it was assumed we agreed by default. This resulted in us paying over 4000 RMB more for insurance. This feels like a consumer trap and makes us question the company's integrity.
The car provided did not match the reservation. The description mentioned it could fit three suitcases, but it could only fit one 24-inch suitcase and one 20-inch suitcase. They kept trying to upsell me on car and insurance upgrades. The car had many scratches on the driver's door.
At the counter, we repeatedly reminded them that we had already purchased insurance domestically and didn't need any additional insurance. However, taking advantage of our language barrier, they still added over 500 euros worth of insurance. This is blatant insurance fraud!!! Please, Zuzuche, contact the car rental company and get us a fair resolution!!!
“The overall experience was satisfactory but can always get better further.”
About Europcar:8.0/10
The actual status of car is provided in the statement of return after vehicle is returned, however the same should be more helpful to be shared at start to make driver aware about existing limitations or damages if any.
