When I booked, it stated pickup at the airport. However, at the Hertz counter they told me it was outside the airport. I waited for the shuttle bus for over half an hour, then at the off-site location, there was only one person attending and I queued for another 30 minutes.

I waited for the shuttle bus for 50 minutes, but it never came. I returned to the rental point and QEEQ said that Hutz would provide the car, but Hutz said they couldn't find my booking and asked me to book another one for 1000 AUD (my original booking was 220 AUD). I called QEEQ customer service, who asked me to wait again. After half an hour without a response, I called QEEQ again, and they said they couldn't reach the Firefly company (if you can't reach them, why list them?). Then QEEQ's overseas customer service asked me to place a new order, so I did and finally got a car. From the time I landed at 2:30 PM to finally getting a car at 5:20 PM, the experience was terrible. Most of the blame lies with Firefly, but doesn't QEEQ have any responsibility? Anyway, I still haven't received an explanation. I suggest that in the future, you rent a car directly upon landing instead of using QEEQ.
