Disappointing staff availability to check car on return

Onduidelijk

The car was very new and clean

The whole process was fine.

Waited over an hour to pick up the car. When we got to the desk there were 5 customer service people on duty but one by one they left leaving only one person to deal with the last three customers. They clearly don't care.

ACE was dire. The pick up took over an hour. After a flight with a 6 month baby and a 5 year old, this was far too long to wait to get to the desk to be served. English was poor, and it was a battle to convince them of the insurance I had already paid for with AXA via Easyrent. They even tried to con us out of 20 Euros for petrol to fill up saying the nearest petrol station was over 30km away from the airport. I had been to the airport several times and the petrol station that was 5km away has always sufficed.

It wasn't ACE but Goldcar. I felt like i was made to take out full insurance. There were dents around the car and the number plate looked like it has been badly damaged. It was not a pleasant experience. I will be using a proper hire car firm in future like Hertz.
