The staff was friendly, and it was very easy to pick up the car. The vehicle had more space than expected and was very fuel-efficient, consuming less than 5 liters.
I rented a Volvo XC60, but they gave me a basic Mazda hatchback instead! Since I had already checked online beforehand, the Avis front desk did not explain anything and directly handed me the keys. It was only when I got to the parking lot that I saw the car. XC60 and Mazda hatchback are considered the same class of vehicle??? XC60's equivalent class should be Audi Q5 or BMW X5/X3, right?
The experience at the car rental location at Stavanger Airport in Norway was extremely unpleasant! AVIS car rental company's malicious deceit and dishonesty were infuriating!! Initially, we had rented two station wagons through the Zuzuche platform: one was a manual Passat station wagon, and the other was an automatic Audi A6 station wagon, both for a one-week one-way rental.
At the car pick-up, we were told that the A6 was not available. We were offered a Golf station wagon instead, without any discount, and they falsely claimed that the trunk size was the same, assuring us it would be sufficient. We were naturally displeased, as it could not fit our luggage, and it was obviously a different car category! Discussions to switch to an A6 at the next city also failed. We sought help from Zuzuche, and their customer service, being very experienced, advised requesting a written statement from the store clerk confirming the inability to provide a car of the same grade and taking a photo. Following this, AVIS staff suddenly agreed to provide a station wagon of the same grade!!! This was extremely frustrating and wasted over an hour of our time! Furthermore, after returning home, we found that we were overcharged by more than 3,000 Norwegian Krone compared to the original rental fee! As of writing this review, Zuzuche is still actively coordinating, but there has been no resolution yet. Such poor service and dishonesty from a major car rental company like AVIS is very disappointing!! We will not patronize them again!
