The car pick-up was at the airport, under the tower. The same person handled both the pick-up and return. I only purchased basic insurance, while this company’s full coverage costs about 20 euros per day, which is relatively more cost-effective than options in my home country. Additionally, there was no need for upfront payment, as I purchased it directly through the local car rental company. The snow tires I noted in the reservation were arranged, and the car provided was a 1.2T Opel with just over 10,000 kilometers on the odometer. The power was average but sufficient. The trunk fit two 26-inch suitcases and one 24-inch suitcase comfortably. Overall, it was a good experience. During pick-up, they processed the pre-authorization of over 500 euros for insurance charges without much explanation, but upon returning the car, only the insurance fee was finalized while the rest was refunded. However, the charges were processed in the local currency instead of euros. All in all, it went smoothly and was a good experience.
The pickup location is in a container near the airport and cannot be found using Google Maps. It was only with the GPS address provided in QEEQ's email that it could be located. The staff left a phone number but had gone out; we had to ask the nearby Sixt staff to call and get them to come back. I originally booked an Octavia, but they said there were no cars available and upgraded me to an A4. This made me drive very cautiously throughout the trip, avoiding parking on the roadside out of fear of scratches.
The car rental experience was very poor. For their own benefit, they refused to assist with any difficulties faced by renters, which was disheartening. I will never rent a car from the CARWIZ rental company again.
We always rent cars for self-driving trips when traveling abroad and have generally had great experiences. However, this time on May 3 at Belgrade Airport with CARWIZ, it was disappointing. Here's what happened: the primary driver forgot to bring their credit card, and the company would not let us pick up the car. We proposed two solutions: 1. Use cash for the deposit or have a traveling companion's credit card pay the deposit; 2. Replace the primary driver on the booking with a traveling companion or rebook under their name. Both were rejected. The only condition given by the company staff was to pay an additional €650 for full insurance; otherwise, we would not be allowed to pick up the car and the already paid rental fee would not be refunded. Ultimately, after some bargaining, they allowed us to pick up the car after we paid €620. Additionally, I want to inform everyone that the car's exterior condition was quite poor, with over a dozen noticeable scratches and dents. Since I opted for full insurance, I didn't bother negotiating further. Overall, this car rental experience was very unpleasant. Please take this into consideration.
