Without any notification, the initial order for a Mercedes was changed to a small Ford. Customer service couldn't resolve it, and we ended up canceling the order out of frustration. They even said they don't accept complaints! An international rental company with such poor service is truly disappointing. In the end, we had to cancel the order, but a Hertz employee came out and offered us a Hyundai for three days at the original four-day price. Overall, this was the worst rental experience abroad.
Hertz is great. I lost my passport, but Hertz was the only company that could rent a car to me, and they were very efficient. I ended up with a Toyota Chev, which is a great car.
The wait for arranging the car pick-up was too long. We had a reservation at 10 AM and arrived at 9:45 AM, but had to wait in line until around 11 AM to start the process.
The staff at the rental company were very enthusiastic and thoroughly explained the rental procedures. They carefully inspected the car and verified everything with us during pick-up.
I picked up the car 3-4 hours later than scheduled. The rental company refused to provide the model I booked, citing that I did not inform them in advance. They insisted I pay extra for a different model. I had a contract with the car rental service and paid in full, so I'm not sure why I couldn't get the car I booked. It’s unclear whether the issue lies with the car rental platform or Hertz. During the rental period, I also had a flat tire which caused delays and affected my trip. Although I purchased full insurance from the rental platform, it wasn’t reflected in my Hertz order, meaning I have to handle the claim process after returning home. This adds inconvenience and consumes both effort and time. Currently, the claim process is underway. While the insurance company and the rental service might reimburse the tire costs, it's uncertain whether they will compensate for the time lost and the stress caused. I reserve the right to seek further compensation.
