Auckland-Wellington

The car had numerous small scratches and was very old when picked up. After contacting the company staff, we parked the car in the designated spot the night before and took photos as required (photos taken at return were uploaded, showing no damage as indicated by the rental company). The next day, without any notification, we were charged over 1400 NZD for alleged windshield damage. Since we purchased a super insurance, we are now filing a claim. This experience was terrible compared to our previous rentals with Yesway and Thrifty on the South Island!

Very poor. When we arrived at the store, we found that the car we rented was not the same model as what we booked. It was much smaller than the Toyota we selected, and the trunk couldn't fit our luggage. We requested a change, but they said there were no other cars available. The male owner arrogantly told us to take it or leave it and offered a refund, refusing to rent the car to us. It was almost evening, and they took advantage of our situation. Additionally, the car had issues; the warning light came on after driving less than 50 kilometers. We contacted the owner, who took almost two hours to figure out the problem, which was resolved by turning the car off and on again. While on the highway, the car suddenly braked on its own, which was extremely dangerous; luckily, there were no cars behind us. We rented a car for ten days on the South Island without any issues, but this rental was problematic from the start. Overall, a very, very, very bad experience.

Extremely dissatisfied. We purchased comprehensive insurance on the platform, but when we arrived at the store to pick up the car, they tried to sell us additional insurance which we didn't buy. The employee, who was a young Chinese expatriate, had a terrible attitude and displayed no sense of service. When we returned the car, there were scratches that we were unaware of (we had photos for record), and they scolded us loudly. We had insurance, so it should have been a straightforward claims process for us. However, they insisted on using a different vehicle model on the claims form than the one we actually used. When I raised the issue, they took back the rental form. Since we didn't understand the process, we didn't pay much attention at the time. After returning to China, they said we were being troublesome. They also mentioned that the discrepancy between the allocated vehicle and the order was because we got a 'special deal' car, not a new car.

Excellent money saving deal. Got a fairly new vehicle. Was a very economical trip.

Thanks for looking for the best deals.

The car was exa tly as described. Very clean also. Smooth pick up and drop off process. The only 2 things i didnt like is the charge for being 30min late on dropoff was half the amount we paid for the 10 days rental. Also they hold a charge on your credit card for the deposit which is reversed on dropoff however i am now having issues with the bank as to where that is. Ive always hated deposits on a credit card. I rather give cash and get cash back on return

Very good
