        Rented a car from Nov11th to Nov23rd in Cape Town South Africa. At the counter, they pushed me with an « upgrade » for an increase of R1961 over the price already paid with "Easyrentcars". Finally, they charged me about R3150 on my card on the same day and I saw it when I received my account during december. They don't answer to my demands for a refund. A SCAM !! A nice plus to this situation is that there were some scratchs on a hub cover when I took charge of the car but the staff told me itw as so light, itw as nothing. After returning the car, they now want to charge me almost $100 for ONE hub cap !! ANOTHER SCAM !!??

        Like: We had to wait for more than an hour as the system was down when we got to the shop. However, the staff did try to expedite the process by getting others in the line to fill up the forms first. When we weren't satisfied with the car, the staff also patiently showed us a few more & provided alternatives. Although the process was a little frustrating, the service of the staff made it up for that :) Car return was also easy & hassle free!
        Dislike: We had booked the car in advance & it would be great to have another queue where customers who have made prior booking can head straight to sign & collect the car (instead of waiting in line with those who didnt do prior booking & needed more time). The model (or similar ones) we booked for weren't available. Though the staff was kind to offer a better model, our luggages still couldn't fit (without revealing our luggages) & we had to return he following day for a swop. Could have save us the hassle & time.
