We arrived at HERTZ earlier than the scheduled pickup time, and they didn't have the reserved model available. The staff said we could only choose either a fully electric car or a manual transmission vehicle, or pay double the order price to upgrade to another option. I refused and suggested waiting to see what could be done. After waiting for nearly two hours, a senior employee helped us by offering a smaller SUV model compared to what we had booked. I had reserved a compact SUV capable of fitting three 24-inch suitcases in the trunk, but we were given a subcompact SUV where only two 24-inch suitcases barely fit. After storing the luggage, there was hardly any space left—even a large bottle of mineral water couldn't fit. I've rented cars abroad five or six times before, and this was the only instance where the rental company downgraded the car model. The service at the HERTZ Heathrow Airport branch is genuinely poor. However, the vehicle itself was in good condition—very new with only a few thousand miles driven.

After waiting for nearly 2 hours, another experienced staff member managed to provide me with an SUV one size smaller than what I had reserved.

After placing the luggage, there was barely room for even a large bottle of water in the trunk. Having rented cars internationally five or six times, this was the only time a rental company downgraded my car model. The service at HERTZ Heathrow Airport branch was really disappointing. The car itself was in good condition, quite new, with only a few thousand miles on it.
Everything about the car was OK but we have been changed more than 50 pounds for VAT and other nonsense. Also they charged us for a full tank while the tank was half full!! Never go for herrtz again.

It was easy and quick but they must be clear about VAT or tax etc.
