It feels like fraudulent charges were involved. I chose this company because it seemed cheap, but at the airport, I couldn’t find the company’s shuttle bus or staff. I ended up on the shuttle of another company by mistake since they were located just next to each other on the same street. Their shuttle service was poor, and the staff who handled the car pickup process tried to upsell their own insurance for €370. Because I was confident in my driving skills, I didn’t buy it. However, in Malaga, Spain, while visiting Picasso's birthplace and art exhibition, the car parked in a normal parking lot was vandalized by locals, and the left side mirror was broken. I contacted the car rental company, and the staff advised me to call the police. With my poor foreign language skills, I tried calling the Spanish police twice, but they didn’t understand me and hung up each time as there were no Chinese-language services. Helplessly, I returned to Portugal. During the car return inspection, the staff told me that in addition to the broken left side mirror, there were scratches on the left wheel and damage to the tire. When I picked up the car, I followed the standard procedure and took photos of the car from all sides, including the front left, front right, back left, back right, and center. I carefully inspected areas like the bumpers and doors, but since the inspection was done indoors with poor lighting, I missed examining the tires and wheels. After taking the photos in front of the staff, I drove out of the parking lot and parked in sunlight to double-check the car. I noticed some minor scratches and informed the staff member who happened to come out. He told me the scratches were already noted on the car pickup form and assured me there was no need to worry. I didn’t inspect all four wheels or the rims in detail due to his assurance. However, at return, I was told that the damages, including the left side mirror, exceeded the €1,599 deposit I initially paid, which felt like a huge scam. Roughly calculated, the rental cost came out to €100 per day—ridiculously expensive. I hope other drivers who read my review won’t be misled by low prices. Small companies might have hidden traps waiting for you.
“Terrible experience, they scam people for money from car scratches. Get away from it.”

I waited a long time for the car and at the return, they were very cautious about every small scratch, one that I couldn’t see in the photos and they charged 180€ for it!! I was furious at the return.
About QEEQ:10.0/10
Qeeq did an excellent job considering the circumstances, I hope the AXA insurance will do the same.
