They always try to upsell you on renting a more expensive car. When that didn't work, they made me buy a full tank of gas. I felt embarrassed and bought it, which turned out to be a scam because you can't return the car with an empty tank. However, I'm used to being taken advantage of in Mexico.
MEX insisted that I purchase their insurance package even though I had already purchased through EasyRent. After showing my EasyRent insurance certificate, they informed me that the MEX insurance was still required, but reimbursable by EasyRent.
I told them I had already paid 206 yuan on the car rental website and only needed to pay 115 yuan worth of Mexican pesos at the store, but the staff still charged me 1113 pesos for three days of car rental. They said this is the store policy, so I ended up paying over 200 yuan more. Very dissatisfied. It's better to go directly to the car rental company.
“Great car and price, but a lot of pressure to buy extras.”
About MEX:8.3/10
Mex salesperson, kept telling me that since I purchased insurance through EasyRentCars, I was not insured locally and that I would have to buy insurance through them. I insisted I was already covered, because what I bought from EasyRentCar and due to another travel policy on my Credit card, and they very unwillingly let me leave but only after putting down a very hefty cash deposit which would have been lost if any accidents. It made the experience a pain and I felt like I was being preyed upon. (Even though I spoke Spanish and was very nice to them.)
“MEX will try to force you into upselling additional car insurance even if you have already purchased”
About MEX:8.7/10
They tried to make me sign a paper that I would be have to pay for the $29,000 cost of the vehicle if anything happened to it that they saw no insurance purchased for this rental. When I refused they charged me $137 insurance fees. This $137 was more than 2x the cost of the insured rental. They did not have WiFi available so it was hard to debate the counter rep to see the fine print so they bullied me into getting the additional coverage. This started my vacation off poorly.
we went to pick up the car and Mex car rental wanted an additional $300.00 for a 3rd party insurance, which we have full international rental car coverage through our own insurance so we didn't pick up the car at all. We did not get the car therefore, we lost the money we spent already on the car rental. Mex car rental is a scam.
“Rental at Guadalajara was not acomodating even though it was their mistake”
About MEX:5.7/10
Waited over 1.5 hrs to get the car at rental location. Staff was not helpful, just kept me waiting. At the end, staff that was helping me just took off and left me hanging and me not knowing what to do. Terrible experience!
They wouldn't allow me to rent a car with my Chinese driver's license and a notarized translation. Instead, they charged me an extra $6 per day for a special waiver, costing me an additional $42. Probably because the price was lower, there were a lot of people picking up cars that day. It took about 40 minutes to complete the paperwork, and then another half hour to actually get the car. Overall, it was a very poor experience, and I won't choose this company again.
A l'aéroport aucune indication pour trouver mex apres avoir demandé à plusieurs personnes Attente de 2h dans l'agence
3 personnes en plus ont eu le même problème qui est des frais en plus pour la carte bleue
La voiture demandée n'était pas disponible. J'avais reservé un SUV lux et j'ai eu une mid-range corréene. Le personnel etait odieux. A la restitution, il n'y avait personne et pas de boite pour les clefs, j'ai laissé la voiture sur le parking du loueur et le lendemain à la restitution ils m'ont obligée de payer le parking!! Je suis furieuse. Personne ne parlaient anglais, le personnel était absolument désagréable.
Be very careful of their tricks to sell you upgrades. They said they would fill in full tank of gas for a cheaper rate than outside fuel stations, they said that fuel level is very low and they suggest taking the initial full tank fuel package. I declined this package, when I get to the car I rented, the fuel is already at full level.
Extremely dissatisfied. I urge everyone not to rent cars from this platform or Mex Rental. It's practically a scam company. Mex forced insurance, and the rental platform shirked responsibility. Truly very dissatisfied!
