CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON MODE AT QUEENSTOWN AIRPORT, ZQN

Nice staff, very helpful

Great price and easy access to the vehicle. Bond is a bit steep if you don’t purchase insurance but overall very happy with the experience

Easy to use and informative

Excellent reception, courtesy, and after-sales service.

I made two car rental reservations with mode during my visit to New Zealand. One was at Queenstown from 4/19 to 4/27 and the other was at Auckland from 4/27 to 4/30. I am not sure what’s mode’s standard SOP to check return car. When we picked up the car on 4/19 at Queenstown, we were told that as long as we return the car at 8:30am, they will send shuttle to take us to the airport immediately. We arrived at 8:20 but could only wait till customer service rep to open the door at 8:30 sharp. He took more than 20 photos of the car, then drive the car to the parking lot (when I thought he was doing a test drive.) Then he returned to the front door where we waited, said he would ask his colleague to take us to the airport. We waited a few more minutes, just to find him chatting with the guy at back door…. We almost missed the deadline to check in luggage if our flight to Auckland was not delayed. I must say the experience was extremely awful! On the other hand, when we returned the car at Auckland, the Service Rep didn’t take any single photo of the car!

Staff were friendly and efficient.

Easy to book and great price.

Great! Super cost-effective!

One issue I didn't understand was the insurance. I believe I paid QEEQ as the agent sufficient funds to ensure full coverage and no excess. On pick up I was asked for a $3000 bond and told any damage etc would be taken from that bond. I would then approach QEEQ for a claim on insurance paid with you. Turns out there were no issues, but I still don't get it?

The car was old and not well kept. When requested to change the car we were told bluntly that this was the only one they had. We could see one more better looking vehicle but we were denied saying that it was already booked inspite of noone there to pick up the vehicle. Very disappointed by the staff and the way we were treated.

Good car condition and great service
