The staff had a poor attitude and kept pushing insurance even though I told them I already purchased one. They tried to scare me by saying it wasn't the same and that if there were repairs, they could directly charge over $6000 from my card (though the actual authorization was only $1000, so I don't understand why they claimed over $6000). The vehicle they provided was bad; it lacked power and struggled on uphill roads. When I returned the car to the address listed on the order, the staff lazily told me to drive to another parking lot instead. Driving in the city center was challenging, and I was in a rush. When I finally got there, the entry required a password, but the password they gave was incorrect. I had to drive back to the original address listed on the order. It was an exhausting experience! I've self-driven in many countries before, but I've never encountered such an unreliable rental company. Avoid this company at all costs; it was a hard lesson learned!
The service attitude is alright! But there's a major drawback. Be cautious when renting a car; even if you buy insurance, the deductible is $4,400. This means you have to pay $4,400 before the insurance covers any damage, whether it's a scratch or a minor dent.
Everything was quite good. I rented a car in Sydney and got a Nissan Sylphy. I noticed they mostly have Nissan Sylphys, Toyota Corollas, and Suzuki Swifts. Returning the car at Brisbane Airport was quick, and they even provided a shuttle to the airport. Nice.
“Good experience, great car. If they could just fix the Sydney traffic it would be perfect.”

Explanation of the automatic billing for the road Tolls was good. Explanation of the additional insurance was a little harder to fully understand as this was different to the EasyRentalCars insurance statements.
