I was given a free upgrade to a Mercedes EQC, but the service experience was terrible. They deliberately delayed the process, suggesting I pay for the upgrade. Only when I insisted, they offered it for free. I didn't even want the upgrade, wasting much of my time. After returning the car, I received a fine with a handling fee of £40, which is ridiculously expensive. The fine could be paid at half price within fourteen days, but they sent it to me on the fourteenth day, forcing me to pay the full price.
1. Long waiting times, and people cut in line. 2. Signage for car pickup and paperwork locations is not clear. 3. We had already paid for the one-way rental fee on a third-party site, but were informed at the counter that we needed to pay again because the rental company does not recognize third-party payments for one-way rentals; all such fees must be paid in person. 4. The one-way rental issue delayed our car pickup, but the rental company started the rental time from when we arrived at the counter, not when we got the car (almost an hour difference), and there were no warnings about this. After returning the car, we were charged an overtime fee for being late.
Overall, a very unpleasant rental experience. Considering using Ctrip for future rentals, as it’s said to be cheaper and more convenient than the current service.
They booked money on my credit card as deposit for case of accident. It was returned at the end but this crate problem because my resources on credit card are in that way limited
Like: Well priced for size of car, well known rental company, quite a simple process overall. Dislike: Car booked was a Skoda Superb or similar, which is quite a large car. Car issued was a Skoda Octavia, which is the next size down.
