この過ぎるtekapo -クィンズタウン

Due to my flight, I arrived at the pickup location after 11 PM. The staff waited for me, and they only finished work after I received the car. I am very grateful.

I've rented from various companies multiple times, but this was my first and very unpleasant experience with Europcar. First, the counter staff was quite indifferent. Second, despite having fully paid and purchased the super comprehensive insurance via Zuzuche, and having additional travel insurance that covers overseas self-driving, Europcar still tried to push their insurance on us. They initially refused to acknowledge our booking, and only after persistent negotiation did they relent. This already left a bad impression. Third, they pre-charged NZD 200 on my credit card for fuel, which they promised to refund if the car was returned with a full tank. This was acceptable. However, a couple of days later, they charged another NZD 200 without any explanation, causing confusion. Given our ongoing trip and a similar unresolved situation with a friend in Europe, our trust in Europcar was already low. We contacted Zuzuche's after-sales service, who responded quickly. After uploading a screenshot of the deduction, we received a refund roughly equivalent to NZD 200 the next day, albeit with some exchange rate loss. Fortunately, it was a minor loss. The main issue wasn't the money but the unauthorized, unjustified charges, which are unlawful. We appreciate Zuzuche's prompt and effective service, which helped resolve the first incorrect charge despite limited communication options abroad. However, the initial NZD 200 taken at the counter hasn't been refunded yet. We returned the car with a full tank and even confirmed with the Europcar counter, who assured us it would be refunded within 10 business days, pending the bank's process. We are still waiting, hoping there won’t be any further issues.

車を貸し出すのはスムーズで早かった。傷の点検などは一切なし、サインだけすれば終わり。車は最初の車は綺麗で良かったが北島で借りた車は最初、外観は泥だらけで汚く少し狭い車。返し終わったらタイヤのホイールに我々の身に覚えのない傷がついてたとメールが来て追加請求あり。最初から汚い車だったので本当に自分たちがつけたのかも怪しい。車の中に忘れ物を確実にしたため見つけたら取りに行くから連絡をくれと言ったが結局連絡は来ない。最悪でした、2度と使いません。

特になし。

Excellent service.
