CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON HERTZ AT EL CALAFATE AIRPORT, FTE

There was a queue for car pick-up, about 20 minutes; compared to other rental companies, the queue was quite long, which also speaks to the reputation and strength of Hertz. The staff were patient and attentive. My English is not very good, but she was able to slowly repeat the key points, write them down as she spoke, and didn't try to upsell any additional insurance. I was very satisfied. The pick-up process was straightforward and smooth. The drop-off process was even simpler, just handing over the keys at the parking lot. The staff asked if everything was fine and I replied that it was great with no issues. The drop-off process took only two minutes. Wonderful!

Couldn't use Visa when picking up the car. A foreigner had the same issue and got so mad that they threw things. You can use cards to buy things at the airport, but not at the rental company. I contacted my credit card company, and there was no issue with my card. I asked Herz what to do, and their answer was that they didn't know. After more than an hour of delay and after repeatedly insisting, they tried again, and it finally worked. When returning the car, I noticed the rental company had a new card machine, but they refused to admit their old machine had issues!
