United Arab Emirates

Not a long wait, acceptable

The staff's service was very poor; it took them half an hour to install the baby seat... very bad. The service attitude at the pick-up location was particularly bad, extremely bad... I will not book Hertz in Dubai again.

The airport store is very small, with only two people attending to customers. We waited for about 20 minutes before our turn. The service attitude was great and explained everything clearly. Some of the add-ons we initially planned to purchase were suggested with better alternatives by the staff. Amazing!

① I rented a Honda Accord but got a small Kia SUV instead, which is not the same class. ② They added a damage insurance fee of around 3000 RMB without informing me. After I refused and discovered it, they required a 6000 RMB deposit, saying it would not be refunded for any damage. After communicating with Zuzuche, they told me I did not need to buy the insurance, and in case of any issues, they would reimburse me after I paid first. ③ When checking the car for scratches, they almost used a magnifying glass.

Only issue was car read low tyre pressure on pick-up. i had to get the tyres pumped up when stopped at a fuel station. Hertz did not honour the EasyCar value, and had me pay a larger number. The original number they quoted was excessive, and was a holiday changer. Thankfully they released the car to me at a better rate, but still more than agreed in the EasyCar terms.

I raised this with Easyrentcars. They say they will refund me the overpaid value as per the Easyrentcars contract. I am still waiting. 20 working days were advised to me as the time I would need to wait for the refund. We are approaching the 20 day mark, so I hope this is resolved in the time allocated.
