Good trip with good car

Average

Patient and meticulous. Attentive service with proactive reminders.

The service was excellent, with minimal queuing and an acceptable wait for the car. I rented the car for 13 days; it was a Citroen C5. Upon returning the car at Paris airport, I accidentally scraped the right front wheel against the curb due to the narrow lanes in the parking area. There was some dust on the car. EUROPCAR charged me 287 euros for repairs without providing any repair invoices or pictures, which left me quite puzzled.

I had a terrible experience with this car rental. I'm still not sure if I got scammed because I'm naive or because this platform takes advantage of customers. I strongly advise against using this app for car rentals. I'll never use it again in my life! When I arrived in Paris, I saw a sign at the airport and approached it to find out that my reserved car was unavailable and I needed to switch. I was willing to change, but there were no cars in the same category, so I had to book a different one. After completing the new booking and paying, I asked the clerk what would happen to the money I paid on the platform. He said it would be released. I'm not well-versed, does 'release' mean the cancellation of the order on the platform? Then I was given a bill in French and asked to sign it. I don't understand French at all. After signing, I realized I had actually paid an upgrade fee. What was verbally communicated to me was different from the contract. They took advantage of my lack of understanding. When I got back, it felt like I paid twice for one rental. When I contacted the platform, they said I should have contacted them at the time, that I should have received a free upgrade, and gave me endless excuses. This dragged on for six months with no resolution. I accepted my bad luck, but I strongly warn everyone to never use this horrible platform. It brings nothing but endless trouble to customers! Absolutely terrible experience!

All fees were clearly stated, and the overall service was good.
