Avoid Budget when renting a car in Dubai and Abu Dhabi!!!

Avoid Budget car rental in Dubai and Abu Dhabi!!!

Satisfied

Overall service was good, but the deposit refund is too slow. Returned the car on February 13th local time, and still haven't received the deposit back as of today. Not sure how much longer it will take. Additionally, the extra day rental fee due to early return hasn't been refunded either.

Objectively, the vehicle was in good condition, clean, and well-maintained. However, this rental company has severe integrity issues. On the day I rented the car, I got 4 speeding tickets within 2 minutes on the same road, each costing 600 dirhams. The rental company also took a commission of 60 dirhams per ticket, totaling nearly 5000 RMB. When I tried to appeal and went to the Dubai traffic authority, they said an appeal was possible but needed the rental company's cooperation. The rental company refused to cooperate and even charged my credit card without my authorization and consent. Furthermore, after I exchanged the car, they forcibly charged another 272 dirhams for unknown fees! The car rental platform was not helpful; they just forwarded emails and ignored my complaints. We chose this platform for assurance throughout the rental process, but when a dispute arose, the rental company’s conduct of unauthorized credit card charges was outrageous!

Only after arriving in Dubai did I realize that the website required a Visa single-branded card to pick up the car. I only had a dual-branded card with UnionPay, but thankfully, the store didn't make a fuss and handed over the car without any issues.

Perfect driver attitude but arrived at the desk and the guy not there, an hour later looking for him, no apology whatsoever, makes life even more difficult no customer service skills available! Worst experience at a rental front desk, when checking the car, the driver lovely guy he knew i was frustrated so he was trying to keep things calm.

They claimed to have Chinese service, but there wasn't any. Although I had already purchased insurance, they still added additional coverage, which I didn't mind too much. We had to wait to pick up the car because we needed to wait for someone else to return it.

The service at the pickup and drop-off counter was average, but the inspection staff were okay. However, the service at several rental companies in Dubai (because they share the same office) was generally average. Avis and Sixt were slightly better.

Reserved a car seat well in advance, but they didn't have one at the store.

They charge my husband Credit Card Extra 50 Dirham without any legal reason or they refused to give us the car if we didn't pay this extra charges !? Really very bad attitude using the Filipino Receptionist !!

everything was good as per provided earlier thank you.

The pickup process was very slow. Despite booking well in advance, my family and I had to wait for almost an hour early in the morning.

Good service, no fraud. They clearly explain what the insurance is for and whether you need it or not is up to you.

The booking process was very smooth and straightforward.

I reserved a Camry but was given an entry-level Teana without Carplay or a backup camera, which is unacceptable.

There was a slight delay because of an issue with the insurance. The app showed that basic insurance was included, but the car rental company's customer service said the price didn't cover insurance. Since the payment was made directly by credit card, contacting QEEQ customer service was difficult as it was midnight. The online customer service said that the deposit covered the insurance, which felt odd. In the end, it was still unclear what the situation was. The service speed was quite fast, and the car pick-up and return processes were not very complicated. After getting the car, there was a 15-minute window to exit the parking, otherwise, a parking fee would be charged.

They charge me full insurance because which I pay for it (full insurance at your website) it's yours and I have to collect any damage from you so they book 4k D then I told them no I need also from you full insurance therefore I pay 336 D addition.
