Great service and great car - no issues at all.
At drop off location, they even used their shuttle bus to drop me somewhere other than the airport (not a big detour though) - nice touch.
“Amazing Exceeded all Expecttions - can't wait to use again!”

Exceeded expectations! they were so great to deal with from when the shuttle picked us up, to signing paperwork and offering the pre-paid fuel. We even upgraded to a Hydbrid car and all was very reasonablly priced
When I reserved a rental car, I also signed up for full coverage insurance. However, I did not understand when I was told that if there was an accident and damage, I would have to pay 5900 NZD first and claim the damage amount separately from the insurance company. If you signed up for insurance at the same time as reserving a rental car on the reservation site, it would be normal for the rental car company and the insurance company to handle each other's insurance processing so that there is no cost to the customer. Also, I was told that if I signed up for insurance directly with ACE Rental Cars at the pick-up counter, I would not have to pay any costs even if an accident occurs, but I ended up signing up for double insurance.

Zi at Ace in Christchurch could not have been more helpful. He gave us a paper map (yes - they still exist!) and great advice. Oh yes, and the brand new car. Ace is part of Hertz.

Qeeq is a bit different, but now we have got the hang of it, we will be using it again. We especially like the reserve for $1 feature.
Paid an extra NZD 10 per day to upgrade to the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross 4WD, but later realized the upgrade wasn’t necessary as the roads were easy to drive on. Personally, I also really like the design of the Corolla Hatchback in the South Island, and I will definitely try the Corolla next time.
Was very busy when we arrived and had to wait a fair while for space on the shuttle. But the drivers were very helpful And counter staff once we got to the office were great. Just stretched out the process waiting for the shuttle.

Easy booking platform. Didn’t gain anything from price drop but that’s ok.
“The Toyota was comfortable to travel around the South Island on New Zealand - ( travelled 3,000 kms)”

The car had a built in GPS which was very handy to have
Good staff in store
Staff could have walked us to the car and shown us its features and asked if we required any information about the car.
“Christchurch to Queenstown with Excellent Ace Car Rentals.”
About ACE Rental Cars:9.0/10
Was raining lightly when we picked the car up, so going over it for damage was a little difficult. Not used to online signing, being 70+ we're old school. Drop off was a breeze and the lady was extremely helpful and very pleasant to deal with. The shuttle to the airport was great.

In hindsight, i probably should have organised the insurance bit before picking up the car.
It's important to take photos of the fuel gauge when picking up and returning the car. The gauge appeared full when I picked up the car, but it wasn't actually full. I realized this after refueling; a full tank would cover over 700 kilometers, but the car could only go 605 kilometers when I picked it up. When returning the car, my tank showed 688 kilometers left, 83 kilometers more than when I picked it up. The rental company claimed I didn’t fill it up and charged me over 60 NZD. Fortunately, I took photos and the rental customer service helped resolve this issue for me. Based on my overall experience in New Zealand, I want to believe the rental company didn't do this intentionally, but their process needs to improve. Everything else was smooth. For Christchurch, you need to wait for their shuttle at the designated airport location. For Dunedin, simply park at the designated spot and return the keys to the counter.
