About Europcar:6.0/10
Their attitude was pretty good; they were polite and didn't push insurance sales. However, their service was lacking. I rented a Mitsubishi Pajero SUV, but they gave me a Ford pickup. Firstly, this car is available in our country and is half the price of a Pajero. The vehicle was very rough, just a work tool, with no floor mats in the trunk, only bare metal. You can imagine it like a dump truck. Our luggage suffered a lot of wear and tear, with the back of the suitcase getting badly damaged. The trunk was too large, and the back seats were too small, making it uncomfortable for passengers. The luggage slid around in the trunk and was out of reach unless you climbed inside. The diesel engine was also very noisy, making a loud rumbling noise while driving.
their service was fantastic and did their best to assist me resolve the issue with getting the right size vehicle at an extra cost.
About QEEQ:8.0/10
I was not provided with an Outlander as originally promised. Europcar pointed out that the vehicle classification in the booking is "Small SUV" and booking and gave me a Mitsubishi ASX. I therefore had to pay an additional NZD$480 to get the Outlander. This is the first time I have had an issue with a Qeeq booking
I went to so much trouble to ensure I book a Ford Mustang (which is celebrating its 60 year anniversary in 2024) as a surprise for my wife who happened to turn 60 on the 29th September 2024.
Needless to say it was impossible to find another Ford Mustang an hour before I was to book out of our hotel so we trundled along in a RAV 4 which I would not drive if you paid me back in Australia. As you can imagine it was an absolute mood spoiler on what should have been a HUGE surprise.
I understand that cars get damaged (which is what I was told) but to then offer an entry level RAV 4 as replacement is a slap in the face – I would have thought that the least your company could have done was to offer us a complimentary upgrade – what I would have expected of your company was to advise me upfront that the vehicle was not available, when it became evident – but I guess that is too much to expect given the volumes of customers you deal with.
They upgraded us to a hybrid car, which was spacious and comfortable to drive. Pretty good experience overall. After returning the car, they charged us NZD 100.55, but we're not sure what the fee is for. Waiting for QEEQ to help us find out!
Initially, they didn't provide the reserved Mitsubishi, and the luggage space was too small. However, they managed to swap it for a Mitsubishi at the store!
Due to my flight, I arrived at the pickup location after 11 PM. The staff waited for me, and they only finished work after I received the car. I am very grateful.
This experience was very poor; they couldn't solve my problems properly. They kept shifting the responsibility to the car rental company. I rented the car from your platform, not directly from the car rental company, so of course, I would come to you when there's an issue. How you communicate with the car rental company is not my concern. They just shirk responsibility and don't want to take any. This rental completely messed up my travel plans. I will not rent a car from this platform in the future, nor will I recommend it to people around me.
Switched to a Ford Mustang Mach-E, and the condition was average.
We had a half-day layover in Orlando and decided to explore the city. A taxi from the airport to downtown costs $100, so we decided to rent a car. With four people and lots of luggage, we booked a Mitsubishi Outlander. However, upon pickup, we were informed it was unavailable and were given a Ford Mustang Mach-E instead, with an additional $20 fee. This shouldn't have been charged to the customer, as it was the rental company's fault. The car was smaller, and we had to place some luggage in the front seat, which was quite frustrating. I didn't argue since it was just for half a day. (Switching to a Kia Carnival would have cost an additional $20)
Not bad overall. However, the staff at the counter described the car as brand new, but upon inspection, we found five minor damages. After taking photos and discussing with them, they asked us to email the company, which I found unsatisfactory.
