Corolla sedan was a 2019 model with 77K kilometres on the clock. So in average condition. Not a high end car. However, the car was easy to drive and went well.
Counter staff were insistent that damage incurred would cause a $5500 penalty charge. And a refundable deposit of $1000 would be charged to my credit card and refunded if no damage. However, by paying the daily waiver fee (car and windows/tyres seperately, (approx $45 per day) then no deposit or penalty charge would apply.
Staff took about 20 pics of car before pickup while we waited and another 20 pics when we returned - also while we waited which i found very annoying. I have booked a lot of cars in Australia and Overseas and i found then to be the most vigorous with these car examinations
The service attitude was terrible. Since we didn't purchase insurance at the store (we had already bought full insurance through the rental platform), the staff kept complaining about us and tried to force us to buy insurance, delaying the pickup process. It took about 30 minutes to complete the pickup. The same staff handled the car return and was also very aggressive towards us. The whole trip was ruined because of this awful car rental experience.
I found extremely poor service that while a shuttle bus was indicated to be offered, but it is not offered early in the morning and means you are required to walk with your luggage to the airport. That alone would prevent me ever booking with them again
The car we got was larger than we booked. I am not used to driving a large car, so it was stressful on the first day.
They tried to sell another insurance e, even though I got one from the easy car rentals.
“opted for full cover at booking and yet were asked to pay $76.xx on pickup unless 'freeze' $1000 on”
