Dear qeeq,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with my recent car rental experience and to formally request a refund.
I felt misled because the rental fee was automatically charged to my credit card (attachment TA_PdfFileTitle_20240929_124323) , yet upon arrival, the staff member insisted that I pay an additional fee of €211 (attachment Potwierdzenie transakcji 20240929_124357). While I appreciate the service and assistance provided during my rental, I cannot recommend your company due to this unexpected charge, which has left me feeling cheated.
I kindly ask for a refund of the €211 charge and look forward to your prompt response.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Adam Sajda
When picking up the car, they forced me to pay €3 per day for winter equipment, which should normally be included as standard. Then they also asked for a €10 car wash fee. When returning the car, even though I had purchased the car rental company’s full insurance (specifically because I was worried they wouldn't accept full coverage bought in my home country), the company still found a minor flaw—unsure if it existed before—and forcibly charged me a €61 handling fee. No wonder they insisted that I film a video of the car during pick-up. The car pick-up was at over 9 PM—it was cold, I was hungry, and the car was parked outdoors with poor lighting, making it impossible to properly capture any details even with a video. It felt like a trap for customers. I've been renting cars in Europe for over 10 years and have rented in Italy several times before, but this was the first time I encountered a situation where full insurance from the car rental company still required additional charges. I also have photos of the so-called damage, which clearly wasn’t an issue. The rental company was being deliberately difficult. Who can I file a complaint with about this?
There was a scratch on the wheel rim that definitely existed before I picked up the car, but since I didn't take a photo as evidence, they insisted it was my fault and charged me 135 euros. During pickup, I was reminded about this by the previous renter, and I had already photographed all the other scratches on the car, but I didn't pay attention to the rim. It's really hard to guard against this kind of thing.
It took me a long time to find the store, and after queuing up, they informed me that the translated version of my Chinese driver's license was not acceptable for renting a car with their company. They didn't even apologize.
The location at Milan Central Station is convenient. The store provided a new hybrid car with 5000 kilometers on it, which probably saved a lot on fuel.
