EUROPCAR CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN SERBIA

Had to wait in line for over half an hour to pick up the car, and returning it took about 40 minutes too. Plan ahead if you have a flight to catch.

The price didn't match what was advertised on the website. The site mentioned a charge of 4.8 euros per day for crossing the border. We only needed the car for two days in Montenegro but were told to pay a maximum charge of 48 euros for ten days (even though we were renting the car for only eight days). The reason given was that they couldn't know how many days we would be abroad, despite entry and exit records clearly showing this. It felt like an overcharge.

First, during car pick-up, the time was very tight and customers were not given enough time to inspect the car's condition, including any pre-existing exterior damage. Second, during car return, they inspect the car with an overly critical attitude, even penalizing for tiny scratches less than a centimeter long. Third, during car return, the company does not accept photos taken at the time of pick-up as evidence of existing damage, which is clearly unfair. Fourth, the company has a bizarre and unreasonable policy: the inspection done in the presence of the customer during return is not final; it gets re-inspected after cleaning, and that is considered the final judgment. I didn’t rate it one star but gave it two stars because their service attitude is still somewhat acceptable and there is room for negotiation.

The rental company staff did not follow the proper procedures and deducted over 1000 RMB from us without sufficient evidence. The communication and coordination by the rental platform were clearly inadequate, and we did not receive any of the requested photos from the rental company. The final result was unsatisfactory and frustrating. Lesson learned: Make sure the rental company follows procedures and take plenty of photos as evidence before renting.

Picked up the car at 22:50, which was after working hours (they close at 22:00). The staff seemed a bit indifferent as they were thinking about leaving, and there were some language barriers, but it didn't delay the car pickup.

Unfortunately, the selected Mercedes-Benz V220d had a battery warning in the middle of the trip. I contacted the rental platform's customer service, and they suggested I contact the store myself, which was disappointing. The store arranged a tow truck to take the car that night, and the next day we got a Ford CMAX. When returning the car, the store forced us to pay a penalty for not having a full tank during the car change, and informed us that they couldn't refund the rental difference, and that I would need to file a complaint with the store and the rental platform. The complaint has already been filed on the app, so let's see what happens. Where do you think the problem lies in this situation?

Satisfied with both pick-up and drop-off processes, but the company is very slow in providing insurance documents. It's the tenth day now, and they still haven't responded.

The car was inspected upon return with no issues, but later charges were made for damages, which is unacceptable.

The car pickup process was fine, but the drop-off at the airport was very unsatisfactory. The main issue was that they did not acknowledge the existing scratches on the front right bumper and insisted it was our fault, claiming it wasn't recorded in their system. When we picked up the car, the Eurocar staff was very careless and didn't confirm with us if there were any issues with the lower front right area. They just did a rough check and only documented some scratches after we insisted. During the return, they focused on the areas that weren't confirmed initially and blamed us, even though it was clearly old damage. They just said it wasn't recorded in their system, so it was our responsibility. Additionally, they asked us specifically about our insurance coverage and, upon learning we only had basic insurance, started nitpicking to find faults. Serious complaint about this, and I do not recommend Chinese people to rent Eurocar vehicles in Serbia in the future.

The car pickup process was smooth. The staff did not push for extra insurance and were very friendly. The entire procedure was completed within half an hour.

The actual charge at pickup was quite different from the booking price.

When I went to pick up the car around 9 AM, there was no one at the counter, and I had to wait for half an hour. When I returned the car, I found that one of the front left mud flaps was damaged, which is not part of the front bumper. However, during checkout, they insisted that this mud flap was part of the front bumper and asked for compensation of over 400 euros. This is ridiculous! A part that costs less than 200 RMB to repair was claimed to be part of the front bumper, warranting a repair fee for the whole front bumper (around 3000 RMB). I am very dissatisfied with the staff's judgment on parts, as they take the opportunity to overcharge and create extra revenue! For a company that relies on reputation and service, this is contradictory to their principles. This isn't malicious slander, but the truth! I hope everyone considers the integrity of this company when renting a car. Thank you!

The weather was cold and rainy. We were asked to drag our luggage to the parking lot, but there was no car available there. We were told to wait for five minutes, but it took about twenty minutes. It was 0 degrees and raining, and after such a long wait, a car with a flat rear tire arrived. We found out and were told we had to wait another hour to change cars. It was too cold, so we dragged our luggage back to the airport to wait. The process was inefficient, and the pick-up staff were very rude with a heavy accent in English, and got impatient when asked to speak slower. We were the only ones renting a car that day, but it took a total of three hours to finally depart.

They clearly explain the precautions when picking up the car, including the return location and type of fuel. There's no push to sell insurance. However, when returning the car, you have to go inside to find someone to assist, unlike other companies that have dedicated personnel waiting in the parking lot. The lady inspecting the car was not very knowledgeable and almost mistook a load-bearing mark for a dent. But after communication, there was no problem. The deposit was refunded on the spot.

Convenient pick-up and drop-off

I barely know any English, the staff was indifferent, and the service attitude was poor. I suggest choosing another company.

Satisfied

Excellent service

The procedure was quite slow

Not the car we wanted. They wouldn't go the extra mile to solve our issue.
