The entire process went smoothly without any issues, and I received a brand new car. Remember to clean both the interior and exterior at the self-service car wash when returning the vehicle. Buying a €5 wash token from the machine is sufficient; don't buy extra since it’s non-refundable. Extra tokens can only be taken back home as souvenirs.
“I will not use Europcar Frankfurt again. Europcar in Zuerich would have waved the additional charge”
About Europcar:6.0/10
My flight was delayed and because I did not give the flight number upon reservation, Europcar had already rented the car out to someone else. They told me it would be hours before I could get the class I booked again. They made me pay the difference for the next class up. Not happy.
About QEEQ:8.0/10
Was there a protection for this included in QEEQ's policy? We traveled because of a family emergency and it was tough being as on top of things as I normally am.
I booked the rental car two months in advance and called Europcar before departure to confirm that there would be no issues picking up the car at the store. I rented an automatic BMW X1 and scheduled to pick it up at 10 AM. However, when I arrived at the store, they told me there were no cars available, not even the automatic ones, except for a Volkswagen Golf and other manual cars. I explicitly mentioned that the Golf couldn't fit our luggage, and we don't drive manual cars back home. After much argument, I finally got a significantly downgraded Toyota CHR at 11:30 AM. Despite the pre-authorization being lifted after returning the car, without any notification or email, they directly charged 87 euros. I am currently disputing the transaction.

WeFrankfurcie nad Odrą fatalnie.”
About Europcar:8.7/10
Należy tutaj wyeksponować fakt bardzo złej i niezgodnej lokalizacji punktu odboioru samochodu podawanej we wskazówkach zawartych na umowie. Zły, noeprecyzyjny opis lokalizacji biura na terminalu a załączona mapka wprowadza w błąd. Chodzi o lokaliza ję na terminalu.
Lokalizacja odbioru samochodu, czas otwarcia biura we Frankfurcie nad Odrą nieprzychylny dla klienta. Parkowanie samochody po jego odstawieniu i oddanie kluczyków na sga ji benzynowej odległej o 5 km to jakaś ogromna pomyłka. Tymbardziej, że odbywa się to tylko do godz. 21.00 A co z oddaniem samochodu po tym czasie? Ja musiałem czekać do rana na otwarcie biura. To wiązało się z koniecznością nocowania w hotelu i opóźnieniem mojej dalszej podróży. To wymaga koniecznej poprawy a ja osoboście jestem bardzo niezadowolony z takiego obrotu spraw.
I booked a Mercedes A-Class, and after checking the website, I found that equivalent cars were Audi A3 or Infiniti Q30. But when I arrived at the store, I was given a Volkswagen Golf (which is much cheaper according to the website, and I would have chosen that to save money). The store said it was because this Golf had higher specifications. Very frustrating, but since there was no other option and I had already paid, I had to accept it.
Due to changes in the pandemic situation, I was worried about travel restrictions when returning to Germany, so I wanted to contact the rental company for a different drop-off location. Although it was expensive (400 euros), the main issue was the customer service attitude. They were not accommodating at all; it felt like I owed them money and they were chasing me to return it to the agreed location. Customer needs changed due to the pandemic, and it's not like I wasn't paying the fee. They didn't need to make it so difficult for the customer.
Arrived an hour early to pick up the car, only to be told that the model I reserved wasn't available. I was offered an upgrade to a higher-end model for an additional 14 euros per day, or I could wait another hour. Reluctantly, I waited another hour. Other Chinese travelers on the same flight faced the same issue.
An hour later, I came back to pick up the car and was informed that the BMW X2 was still unavailable. They only had a BMW 216 in the same class, but I argued that the website indicated the same class vehicles did not include the BMW 216, and the rear space of the 216 is significantly smaller than that of the X2. My argument was ignored, and I had no choice but to upgrade to a BMW 318, paying an extra 14 euros per day.
During this time, I made a special trip to the garage to see the car, only to be given the wrong key, making the trip pointless.
They also suggested I buy additional insurance, which I declined.
Overall, it took two hours to pick up the car. Their attitude was not exactly bad, but I wouldn't call it friendly either.
The entire experience was very poor! In the end, I paid a lot more for a car that I didn't expect.
Overall service was okay, but there was a tire burst and had to exchange the car. The roadside assistance was very slow, and a model worth thousands was taken by the staff from the car. It wasn't placed in lost and found even though it was just a few hours. Sigh.
The lady didn't know the rule even though she was working there for 27 years as she claimed.
The rule is if somebody has an Indian driving licence and they are travelling germany for short term (less than six months) they can hire a car with the same indian driving licence with out an IDP.
I requested her and tried to explain her but she wouldn't listen, although i've hired a car so many times in germany & UK with the same licence.
She made me go to the local police station and when they confirmed then she gave me the car.
This whole process took 2 hours and i was so much depressed by all this.
