I purchased insurance before booking the car but then informed me that they would have a $2400 hold on my card if I did not purchase the $30 a day insurance. It was ridiculous. LONGGGG wait to pick up the car and waited forever to be picked up from the airport.
First They did not have the vehicle we booked. They then said they were upgrading us and tried to give us a 9 person van. As you can imagine not ideal for traveling for parking or expense if gas. Not really an upgrade. Then they gave us an old minivan.
Not what we had booked but better than the 9 person van!
Really quick and smooth pick up and drop off. Had a small problem that the drivers side doors wouldn’t lock on the car we where given but a quick phone all and we where given an upgrade and straight swap for a better 4x4. Car was in great condition and couldn’t fault it.
1. They didn't note the original scratches on the car in the contract when we picked it up.
2. When we returned the car, they claimed one of the scratches was our fault and demanded at least 1000 euros for repairs.
3. They forced us to sign a contract agreeing to pay for the repairs, otherwise they wouldn't let us leave.
4. Initially, they said they would deduct the repair cost from our 18,000 euro deposit, but when we signed the compensation contract, they had already transferred the entire deposit to the rental company's account.
5. When we presented photos taken at the time of pickup as evidence, they kept delaying, saying the responsible staff had already left for the day. Eventually, we encountered two French girls having the same issue and arguing. Only because of their pressure did the staff finally call the manager. It was clear they were stalling because they knew we had a flight to catch, showing a lack of respect towards Asians.
Overall, this car rental company is terrible. Blacklisted forever.
You really need to communicate well with the rental company about the insurance issue. When picking up the car, they pushed for an additional insurance of 146 Euros. They said if you don't take this insurance, you have to leave a 2400 Euro deposit. It was really intimidating, and I couldn't reach you by phone.
Like: The price cheapper compare with other companies. The staff very good. They upgraded our car without any additional charges but you need to buy higher price insurance. Dislike: The shuttle bus from drop off office to Airport quite slow. I have told the staff my flight will be closed another 30 minutes, but he did not care and assume i have missed my flight. I manage to catch up my flight but i need to run very fast..
They don't accept Zuzuche's insurance. They said if we don't buy their insurance for 2200 RMB, we need to leave a deposit of over 3000 USD, which wouldn't be refunded if there was a problem. Since our previous car rental already took a substantial deposit, we didn't have enough left for the 3000 USD, and were forced to buy their insurance. They maliciously increased the deposit. I advise everyone not to choose this company in the future.
I bought full insurance on Zuzuche, but when picking up the car from the rental company, they insisted I purchase another full insurance for 160 Euros. After negotiating, they said if I don't buy it, they would hold 2000 Euros on my credit card. I can understand pre-authorization and deposits when renting cars domestically, but it's normally unnecessary for renting abroad. They blatantly bullied Chinese customers. A German couple next to me only needed to verify their order information and sign their names to get their keys and collect their car, which was conveniently parked right at the entrance. On that day, it was raining in Iceland, and after we bought the insurance, they simply handed us the keys and told us to find our car in the parking lot ourselves. Normally, I could understand this procedure at airports, but comparing the two experiences was disheartening. Aren't German and Chinese customers both customers? This isn't just about the insurance scam; it's about the extra effort paid because of bad weather and still receiving subpar service.
The service at the car pick-up location was decent, and it took about 10 minutes for both picking up and dropping off the car.
The problem handling was unsatisfactory. The car’s air conditioner broke on a hot day. We could not reach them by phone during business hours, and had to email for help. The email response asked us to call their office, which then redirected us to call the car repair service. The repair hotline couldn't see our caller ID and couldn't text us the repair address. When we asked for an email, it took forever, and when we called again, they suddenly could see our number and texted us the address.
We had to visit the repair shop twice. The first visit they were too busy without an appointment, and the second visit after waiting for an hour, they told us they didn't have the necessary parts and advised us to endure until we returned the car.
Later, the rental company called and offered us a discount but couldn’t specify how much. At the airport, they claimed they'd never heard of any discount, and we had to email for assistance again. After insisting, they found a note from a colleague and gave us a one-day rental discount. Considering we rented the car for 13 days and endured the heat, the 0.76-day discount as compensation felt ridiculous and frustrating.
