Picking up the car (excluding the waiting time in line) took over an hour. This car rental experience was terrible. Due to someone with the same name having a poor rental history, my pickup process took an hour. On top of that, I was charged for a minor scratch that wasn't noticed during the initial inspection (the car was casually checked during pickup but inspected meticulously with a magnifying glass during return). Additionally, the car's overall condition was awful—like driving a tractor with constant clanking noises, and the car was covered in scratches, from the wheels to the body.
I rented a Volkswagen ID.3 but was given an Opel small SUV instead. Returning the electric car with just 5% battery left is very convenient. Luckily, the staff at the counter suggested I pay 20 euros for full insurance. The roads in Portugal make it easy to scratch the car, so I'm glad I opted for the damage waiver.
Not bad. I didn't buy insurance in China, thinking it would be better to buy it locally. But the staff on site said that this is a 4*4 high-end model, and it cannot be covered by full insurance. This means that if the car has a major issue, we would have to pay 6000 euros.
The counter only checked the document issued by QEEQ, ignoring my notarized Hague Apostille. Europcar's system is mediocre; the address, phone number, and email all need to be handwritten. After explaining that I had purchased all the insurance before departure, the counter did not push additional insurance, which is a good practice among major car rental companies nowadays.
The overall service was excellent, with no unnecessary steps or upselling. The car pickup was fast, the service was great, and the staff was very humorous!
May be technically it is similar cars but when you booked Volvo xc60 “or similar” and get Citroen in the condition of dying old donkey it might be little bit disappointing.
