My friend was driving and accidentally scratched a small part of the car's front right corner. There was no deformation, but the rental company still charged us 870 euros. Even with high labor costs in Europe, 870 euros is exorbitant. The charge should be reasonable; it feels like they took the opportunity to overcharge us.
Waited in line for a long time, then didn't get the reserved car model, was told to wait half an hour, after half an hour had to queue again, was rudely told there were no other options.
The front desk staff of this company was extremely rude, and the process for renting a car was very disorganized. What is even more outrageous is that they charge an exorbitant car cleaning fee: 60 euros (including tax) for a Golf. Additionally, if you do not refuel the car fully, they charge three times the market rate for the fuel. I highly recommend not renting from this company. Opt for well-known brands like Europcar, Sixt, or Hertz instead.
The store location is very convenient, all rental companies are between T1 and T2, easy to find. Processing one customer is very slow, around 15-20 minutes... The service attitude is quite average...
Arrived at the counter at 6:40 am, a blonde lady said my reservation was for 7 am, so I had to wait 20 minutes. 20 minutes later, I was told they didn't have the car I wanted, only large vehicles like VANS, and I had to wait another 20 minutes... During this time, I saw four local German-speaking customers all get their cars smoothly (three of them were alone and only one group was a pair). Maybe I was overthinking, but they could all be renting VANS??? When I had waited for the third 20 minutes and saw another Chinese couple being told the same thing while locals got their cars smoothly, I got a bit angry.
I directly asked the blonde lady how to resolve this issue, then a higher-ranking brunette came out, checked my order, and I told her about my waiting process. She immediately said OK, she would give me a new car but with an extra charge. Since I had already waited for over an hour, I didn't want to wait any longer and agreed.
When I went to the garage to pick up the car, I found that they did have the car I wanted... it was just that they were all relatively new?? I don’t understand, maybe they were reluctant to give us these cars?
Thankfully, the car I got was indeed new, with only 20KM on it...
I probably won't choose this company next time.
1) At Munich Airport, the staff marked the scratches on the car incorrectly, causing misunderstandings when returning the vehicle. 2) The working hours at Budapest airport are from 8:00 to 20:00. Our flight was at 9:20 in the morning, and we were pressed for time. We tried calling the return point the day before to ask if we could return the car a bit earlier, but couldn't get through after 18:00. 3) The car we got had an issue with the left rear tire pressure and the brakes were unstable.
