I booked an automatic GOLF for about 5500 RMB for 15 days, but the AVIS staff said they didn’t have any GOLF available and only had a Hyundai I20 from Korea for 780 pounds (including 90 pounds for Ireland), which is quite a difference. During the drive, I found the car in good condition, but it clearly lacked power. Later, I had to extend the rental by 2 days and, with the help of the renting service, the extension was set at 108 pounds for 2 days. After returning the car with 4500 kilometers driven over 17 days, we noticed a crack in the left front tire. The inspection staff said it was a minor issue and, since we had full insurance, we wouldn't need to pay extra. However, we were still charged an additional 20 pounds for tire repair, which we questioned since we had full insurance. As we were rushing to catch a flight, we didn't spend more time disputing it. All the staff who assisted us were courteous.
“I spotted the Avis scam which would have cost me £44 extra for nothing. Other than that, great car”

I like Qeeq because of the fully comprehensive insurance policy on offer. When I got to Avis, I decided to purchase the Excess Insurance Waiver. I was told by the person at the Avis desk that it would cost £83 plus VAT for 4 days. I decided to pay that as £100 was worth it not to be faced with a possible excess of £1,500. When it came to signing the contract, I saw that the cost was £144 and not £100. I asked why. I was told that this was "£83 plus VAT". I knew that this was UTTER NONSENSE and that the person behind the desk did not have a clue what they were talking about. It turns out that car breakdown had been added in for £20 without telling me. And then Avis add a "location surcharge" of 20% of all extras added. So there was 20% added onto the £83 waiver insurance and 20% added onto the £20 car breakdown cover. What an ABSOLUTE SCAM!!! I raised this with the manager and the issue was sorted by giving me half a tank of free petrol as compensation for the "location surcharge" which could not be removed. BE VERY (!!!) CAREFUL WITH ANY OF THE CAR HIRE COMPANIES AND THE HIDDEN EXTRAS THAT THEY TRY TO ADD ON
