The staff were extremely patient and responsible!

Okay

I rented a car for two weeks this time. It was my first time renting a car in the UK. Hertz was quite reliable. I originally wanted to rent a Juke, but since there were no cars available, they upgraded me to a Mercedes directly. Returning the car was super fast. I was supposed to return it on the morning of October 12th, but I was worried the return process would be complicated, so I returned it on the evening of the 11th instead. The return process was incredibly fast. Not sure if it was because I bought full insurance. I asked if there would be any additional penalties or fees, and they said no, all done. I hope there won't be any extra charges later. Overall, I'm quite satisfied.

After about a 20-minute bus ride from the airport, you reach the counter which is manned by just two people, making the service very slow. They try to sell you extra fuel and insurance. The first invoice they gave me did not match my pre-order amount. When I asked, they said I had purchased a full tank of fuel, but I hadn't signed any agreement for that. I insisted on a correction, and they issued a new invoice that matched my pre-order. They also kept pushing for insurance, but I showed them the bottom line of the QEEQ booking form, which made them stop talking about it. Be cautious as foreigners might try to take advantage of you. Do not rush when renting a car; understand everything before signing. In the UK, they give you the keys and paperwork at the counter, and you go pick up the car yourself. Do not simply drive off after collecting the keys; instead, take a pen, inspect the car thoroughly, and mark any scratches or damages on the form. Pay special attention to the wheels because the narrow roads make them easy to scratch, and rental companies often charge for wheel damage. Take photos with your phone as proof and have the staff sign and acknowledge any pre-existing damage. When returning the car, do not just leave if they say it’s OK; ask for a receipt. In my case, I returned the car in Edinburgh, was told everything was fine, but later they charged me £85 for a scratched wheel. Thankfully, I had bought additional insurance from QEEQ.

Everything was excellent
