The price for the car upgrade was very reasonable, just an additional $25 per day.

Very convenient

The lady at the pickup service was very nice and even upgraded our car for free (mainly because the original car would take time to be ready, and she was kind enough not to make us wait too long). Initially, there was an attempt to sell us insurance, but when we said no, they did not push further.

This company is a scam. They sneakily added additional insurance clauses in the English contract. To successfully cheat me out of money, they split the clauses and mixed them with the items I already paid for on Zuzuche. It was a disgusting towing insurance. They knew I had already bought comprehensive insurance, which covers everything even if the car is completely wrecked, so I didn’t need towing at all. Yet, they still charged me for the towing insurance. For a one-week rental, they forcibly charged me nearly $80, about 500 RMB, while the rental fee including full insurance in the contract with Zuzuche was only about 3000 RMB. So corrupt! Disgusting! The counter staff never mentioned this during the whole process and only urged me to sign quickly. After charging me, they tell you, ‘You signed it!'. Furthermore, they forcibly charged me for the toll fees automatic payment device, which cost only $1, but this scam company charged $19 for its usage! On-site staff confirmed several times that there were no usage or service fees, and the contract did not state any charges, only directing you to check their website for terms. Who would check a website while reviewing a contract at the counter? This is really a scam!

The cars from Avis in San Francisco are not very new. When I went to pick up the car, they informed me that the reserved model was not available and gave me a very old Ford instead, claiming it was the only similar model available. If I wanted to change cars, I had to pay extra. I saw many similar models at the pickup point, but after checking and returning to the counter, they still insisted it wasn't the same type and that I had to pay extra. The attendant was Chinese and tried to overcharge me just the same. I thought a big company like Avis wouldn’t have such issues. Finally, after arguing with the manager, they gave me another car, which they claimed was an upgraded Ford Explorer.
