We purchased full insurance at the store, so the return process was quick and smooth.

Walked to the service counter. Directed straight to service, no queue.

The Queenstown branch is small with inefficient customer service, and there were long queues. We were attended by a young male staff member who was very unfriendly and had a cold demeanor throughout. When we had questions after picking up the car, we had to wait too long, causing our children to be exposed to the sun. When we urged him, he started pointing fingers at us while speaking. The online claims about Apex's poor attitude towards Chinese customers seem to be true. However, all the local people we met during our New Zealand road trip were very friendly.

Good car, fuel efficient and comfortable.

I paid for a GPS for the trip as I didnt want to pay to use the internet on my phone due to being overseas but Apex does not offer any GPS. I also waited for an hour in the pick up zone outside, called 10-15 times and got nothing. I ended up walking in the rain to find the place.
