This was the most frustrating part of my entire Phuket trip. The default collision insurance from the platform had a 10,000 baht deductible, and I didn't read the details carefully. Later, when using the car, there was a minor collision and I reported it to the insurance. The Vios we rented had a scratch on the left front fender and a small scratch on the left front light. They charged us 6,000 baht when returning the car. When I contacted the rental company’s customer service, they said I bought the basic insurance which meant the rental company could deduct up to 10,000 baht as they pleased, without following any specific repair cost - they only needed a receipt. When I noticed there was no receipt for the charge, I went back to the counter, and they were reluctant to give me one, saying I didn't buy the extra insurance. It made no sense - I paid the money and couldn't even get a receipt? After insisting for a long time, they unwillingly gave me one. When I asked why the charge was so high, they said it was because we didn't buy extra insurance, and they proudly mentioned that someone just paid over 8,000 baht for a damaged tire. For a beat-up Vios, it felt like we were renting a BMW. I bet they make a lot just from these charges. I complained to the platform's customer service, and they said they had reminded us but we didn't notice a small text note. I suspect many people have suffered as we did. If they truly cared for their customers, why not make the warning more prominent?
VERY GOOD customer service. The counter staff were extremely helpful. We had a bit of a trouble finding the drop off location on Google maps and went to the wrong place. The counter staff ran to the place where we stopped the car to help us avoid fine for illegal parking..
