SNAP CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN NEW ZEALAND

The insurance for the rental car seems almost mandatory. We might not have been very clear about this initially. When we got there, we said we didn't need insurance, but the rental company insisted that without it, we needed a credit card guarantee, and cash wasn't acceptable. This wasn't communicated to us beforehand during the rental process. I think your platform should explain this better. Since we didn't have a credit card, we were forced to buy the most expensive insurance (we could only buy the most expensive one? This feels like a forced sale), which was really frustrating.

The car was overall ok, had some external body defects and some tape pasted on bumpers. The child seat was not provided at the pick up by Snap even though it was booked initially in the booking. Snap then gave a child seat which was very dirty and in very bad condition.

They are okay. A bit passive aggressive. Insurance issue wasnt entirely their fault but this should be clearly communicated to the customer. Got told there was a disclaimer in their PDS. Ask them to show me and took them 15 minutes to find. So if it takes them that long to locate the fine print. Image how long for your average customer?

The pickup point is 5 minutes away from the airport. We had to call three times and wait for 45 minutes before getting picked up! Meanwhile, other rental companies' cars came and went three or four times! The vehicle was very old, with over 130,000 kilometers on it. They also did not provide a phone mount.

Nice and friendly staff at Snap offices but out of hours pickup staff was very unhelpful. Unfortunately, no car seat was provided despite ringing to confirm the day before - a real pain when you arrive at 10pm. Drop off location in Queenstown was not updated either so chasing our tails before getting to the airport was also frustrating. Impossible to reach them on the phone without having to wait minimum 30 min. Probably wouldn't use them again.

Total amount to be paid at the counter was higher than advised by Qeeq when booking.

I booked Toyota Prius C and got Toyota Yaris which I liked more. Great!

The Price Drop Protector was amazing even though I hadn't got it. Online Booking was easy and QEEQ communication was quick response. Thank you!

On the day of arrival, we couldn't get ferry tickets. They helped us modify the rental service, so we rented the same model from SNAP on both North and South Islands, as we were already familiar with it.

I booked a sedan but was given a hatchback. If I didn't agree, I would have had to take an old car.

Decent

When I called the rental company for a shuttle, I only got automated responses. Overall service was average.

The listed phone number was automated, and no one answered. It took us an hour and a half with all our luggage. I had to walk against traffic on the road to pick up the car and then drive back to get my family. We faced extreme difficulties right after landing. The platform did not verify the rental company’s contact number, which is a serious negligence. I demand compensation. When I contacted the platform for the rental company's contact, they told me to add a 9 in front. I'm completely speechless!

SNAP were great. We phoned them from the airport and they were there within minutes to pick us up and take us to collect our vehicle. Staff were very friendly and the service was fast.

The QEEQ booking platform was very easy to use.

The service is unregulated, unprofessional, and too casual!

Excellent & fast

Car wasn’t in the best condition but we knew that would be the case given the lower price. Snap was easy to work with and got us checked out quickly. Would rent again.

The car was a bit old, but the service was quite good.
