Granada, Calpe, Valencia, Barcelona

Acceptable

This order involved picking up the car at the Granada store and returning it in Seville. We booked a Polo but ended up with a hybrid Yaris. The car was average, with poor power, though overall acceptable. Another order involved picking up in Madrid and returning in Granada. It was a disaster. Europcar's customer service told us that the key box was at the entrance of the Granada train station (it was actually in the parking garage), causing us two girls to drag our suitcases to the office only to find nothing. When the office reopened at 4:30 pm, we had to waste more time returning the keys. They later claimed we were late returning the car and wanted to charge us (though after some communication, they did not), but then they charged us 22 euros for parking because we didn't park in the designated spot! Despite calling to ask about the key box and designated parking, we received incorrect information and ended up paying the price. Rentalcars was not helpful in addressing the parking fee issue, very frustrating! Never renting from Europcar again! If you want trouble, go ahead!

The police did not accept the license information provided by the car rental company online, and held the rental company responsible. However, the rental company shirked their responsibility.

Terrible experience, they tried to upsell which was already bad, but they also didn't have the car we reserved and ignored our reservation. They took advantage of our language barrier, and ultimately ignored customer service and canceled our order abruptly. Our group of four was stranded in Granada.

The store is right on the left side of Granada train station, easy to find. The parking lot is on the right side, just a few steps away. They gave us a much larger business van instead of the automatic normal car we had booked. The staff said they had no automatic cars left and offered us either the larger business van or an upgrade to a Mercedes for an additional 50 euros per day. Shouldn't they automatically upgrade us in such situations?! This delayed us a bit. We called QEEQ customer service and after ten minutes of no response, we expressed our dissatisfaction to the store. The staff provided us with a Volkswagen that was just returned and not cleaned. When we returned the car at Sevilla train station, we mentioned that the car was dirty when we received it and were unsure if we would be charged extra, sigh.
