What I liked: I like the service provided by Ms Rim Rebai at the Alamo counter at Geneva airport for the followings:
1. Considerate to check with me if I have already had my own accident insurance, I need not buy additional policy from Alamo.
2. Offered me a new Hyundai Tucson from a Seat Arona as it was not available on-line yet without having to sound pushy.
3. Offered me her work email contact in case I could not get through the emergency contact to address my concern.
4. She was even able to help me with my SIM card issue by referring me to the Lycamobile kiosk within the airport when I had a connection problem.
5. The new SUV has many safety features and is amazingly easy to drive. It provided me and my family members a safe ride for our 18-days trip in Switzerland and France. I am glad I chose this upgrade.
What I did not like about:
1. The new car did not have an English language manual. The staff at carpark P51 also could not locate the English version but he was helpful to help me with my queries about some new operating features with the car.
2. The car did not have floor mats which made cleaning difficult upon returning.
3. I had a punctured tyre at Obergoms on the 19 Nov 2022 but had problems contacting Alamo Tel. number +410848445522 and +410800440066 from 1129hrs to 1218hrs. It was only when I tried the email given by the counter staff that my call for help was received and arrangement for the roadside service made.
4. There was a minor miscommunication between Alamo and the roadside service provider with my contact number. Either Alamo had given a wrong contact number, or the service provider took down the number wrongly which resulted in much delay to the car tyre repair. I had to reschedule my itinerary for that day.
Didn't want to be persuaded to buy the high-tier insurance from the rental company. They took 1500 Swiss Francs, and it hasn't been refunded to my credit card yet. Other rental companies refund within an hour of return.
We didn't realise we had to check in at the desk in the airport first of all, as in Spain when there is a shuttle bus you normally don't need to check in at the airport. We just got the shuttle back and checked in at the airport. We will know next time!
Staff were very friendly and efficient, we got a free upgrade and the car was outstanding for our family journey to the mountains in France. They were also very helpful when my husband and child left items in the car and we got them back.
We also got a phone call a few days in to check all was OK with the car.
About QEEQ:10.0/10
Easy and quick. Car hire is very expensive at Geneva airport, in comparison with Spain. However you were priced competitively and the car was great.
“Almost new car, clean. Space was bit lesser than expected.
Pickup and drop was easy.”
About Alamo:8.0/10
Almost new car, clean. Space was bit lesser than expected.
Pickup and drop was easy, fuel station at drop location making it easier to refuel while returning the car.
Over 2 weeks later and i am still waiting on my deposit being returned. i sent them an email 3 days ago but have not heard back even though they said they would reply in 24 hours
They failed to inform me in advance that credit cards with the UnionPay logo are not accepted, so I couldn't rent a car. The rental fee has not been refunded yet!
Besides credit cards and debit cards, now you can pay for online car hire with cryptocurrency in 2020. Bitcoin(BTC), ethereum(ETH), and bitcoin cash(BCH) are accepted. Wonder how long does a bitcoin transaction takes and how to pay with bitcoin? Read our FAQs.
