CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON SHOUQIZUCHE AT MUNICH AIRPORT, MUC

Long wait time

The Europcar Munich branch, which cooperates with Shouqi Car Rental, has two arrogant employees. The female manager of the branch covers up for the malicious vehicle upgrades carried out by her subordinates. When I requested to swap back to the reserved vehicle, they deliberately downgraded the vehicle class and used the excuse of no automatic transmission to make things difficult. They have double standards for Westerners and Chinese; they explain every clause to Westerners but give the Chinese customers a German version instead of an English one, misleading them about the deposit vs. upgrade fee. When asked if there were any extra charges, they verbally said no. After being caught, they forcibly claimed that signing meant confirmation and refused to refund.

At pickup, the reserved vehicle was not available, only a so-called same class vehicle was provided. However, the trunk space was quite small, so it took time to fit our luggage every time. Additionally, the order didn't have local language documents, making communication difficult. Moreover, there was an extra insurance fee for returning the car in a different location, which was unexplained. Due to time constraints, we had no choice but to accept.

I rented the car from Europcar at Munich Airport. Since the airport is small, I quickly got through customs, picked up my luggage, and went to get the car. However, the counter staff said I arrived early and the car wasn't ready yet. They asked if I wanted to pay extra for a larger car. I had to wait at the airport for a while before getting the car. They didn't ask if I wanted to add any extras and mentioned they would hold some money as a deposit. The entire receipt was in German, and they didn't explain it, just asked for my signature. After returning home, I realized they overcharged me 100 euros for renting a GPS. I contacted Zuzuche for help, and they patiently assisted me in communicating with Europcar. However, Europcar claimed my signature proved I was aware of the charge. Remember to check every item carefully. This was the first time I encountered such an dishonest car rental company.
