The car wasn't filled up when picked up. Although they agreed that the fuel level just needs to be the same when returning, it's hard to estimate. Pickup efficiency was low, waited for over 30 minutes. The car was average with over 60,000 kilometers. Another car rented from Thrifty had only over 10,000 kilometers, and the pickup efficiency was very high, got it in 5 minutes.

The pickup point is a 5-minute drive from the airport. After arriving at the airport, we called the car rental company, and they asked us to wait in the airport waiting area for a shuttle. The customer service does not speak Chinese, but their attitude was good. The translation document that worked in the North Island was not accepted here on the South Island at Apex, causing a lot of inconvenience.

It felt like they were looking down on us. They gave us an outdated wagon. We requested a car change or to pay for an upgrade, but they said they had no cars available at the moment. It was past 7 PM already. Eventually, after discussing with their manager, they gave us a slightly better car, but it was still old. Do all the local car rental companies mainly have old cars?

Very dissatisfied

Good
