When returning the car in Nice, France, the service attitude was average. The return point was on the 6th floor, and the narrow staircase made it dangerous. Unable to find a gas station that accepts cash, I returned the car with half a tank, but the FULL TANK settlement fee was significantly high. However, the service attitude and car condition at the time of rental were very satisfactory.
The car return day coincided with the Paris Marathon, leading to traffic restrictions in the city center. I was unable to contact the rental store, and even after reaching out to the rental company’s customer service, they couldn’t connect me to the store. They advised me to use the self-return service and said the issue would be addressed later. Ultimately, the car return was delayed by over three hours. When explaining the situation to the staff handling returns, he assured me that there would be no late fees due to the road closures. However, additional charges for one extra day were still applied in the end. This is dishonest!
The service at Europcar was excellent, and the car was in great condition! They even upgraded me for free from a BMW 1 to an Audi Q2. The only thing I was dissatisfied with was being charged an extra day's rental for returning the car 18 minutes late. Most other rental companies usually have a grace period of up to an hour. Plus, I had discussed this with the staff on-site, and they said it was fine, but I was still charged for an extra day afterwards.
They arbitrarily use a high exchange rate for USD transactions and have repeated charges without resolving them. They gave us a 5-seater instead of a 7-seater. I'm not sure if there's a worse rental company.

Although I reserved a regular car I was told by the europcar agent that I reserved an electric car and that I need to upgrade if I want a regular car. I upgraded, which meant I had to spendabout 70 euros more for my reservation.
