Budget Car Rental in Auckland, NZ-AUK

Very convenient and very fast

Very satisfied

The car I received was very new and in excellent condition.

Quite smooth, encountered no issues.

The process was very slow and the waiting time was long. We booked a Mazda 5, but they gave us an MG instead, which was extremely difficult to drive! I've never driven such a hard-to-handle car before. There was no response when pressing the accelerator the first time, and the second time it just shot forward. Luckily, the roads in Auckland are wide and easy to drive on. If we had to drive on mountain roads in Queenstown, it would be terrifying. Next time, I will insist on not changing the car.

Very satisfied, very convenient.

Very good, but picking up the car took quite a long time. The staff realized that my luggage wouldn't fit in the reserved car, so they upgraded me to a bigger vehicle for free.

No queues, relatively fast

The staff provided excellent service, and the procedures were simple.

Pretty good

Very good

Terrible rental company When picking up the car, they just printed out the contract for you to sign without mentioning the additional insurance options, forcing you to pay extra. Afterwards, you'll be charged additional insurance fees! Also, there are no gas stations near the airport, so you need to return the car with a full tank. Please 'prepare a small fuel container' with 1 liter of fuel, and manually add it to the tank when returning the car to avoid extra fuel charges! A very petty company.

The airport branch is easy to find by following the signs. The Rental Car signs for picking up and returning cars in the airport parking lot are also very visible. However, when picking up the car, I mentioned that I had already purchased insurance Option Two during the rental, and that I only needed to add a second driver now. I even used my phone to translate that I had already bought insurance Option Two and didn't need any additional coverage, just the second driver. Still, the staff charged me 115.40 NZD.

Budget is really disappointing. When returning the car, I was told to leave the keys in the car. I asked if I needed to go to the office for any procedures and the staff said no. Three days after returning to my country, I received an email claiming that I damaged the bumper and they need to make a claim. I returned the car around 12:50, but the photo showing the damaged bumper was taken around 19:40, a gap of seven hours. Why didn't they say there was an issue when I returned the car, but took a photo seven hours later and claimed I did it? Although I had full insurance, it wasn’t our fault and I don’t want to be unjustly charged. This was my first time driving abroad and didn't have experience. I was in a hurry and didn't take photos when returning the car. This rental experience was really terrible.

The staff is helpful and the car condition is good. We saved more on the fuel consumption. Driving from Auckland, Rotorua and Wellington without worrying.

Overall service level is quite satisfactory. Communication was relatively smooth.

The wait time for picking up the car was extremely long, four or five people were in line for almost an hour. Booked a Mazda CX-5 but received a Mitsubishi ASX, which is a lower grade and harder to drive.

A fantastic car rental experience for my first time!

Good

Great, the pickup guy was very nice. We wanted to change the driver and there was no extra charge.
