When picking up the car, I was told that there were no Corolla hatchbacks available, and I was given a Kia Cerato instead. However, when I went to the parking lot with the key, I saw several Corolla hatchbacks that I had booked on the ZUZUCHE website. When I asked the Hertz staff to switch, I was told those Corollas were all reserved. Are customers booking through the ZUZUCHE website treated differently than those booking directly with Hertz? I don't want to rent a car this way again!

1. I arrived at the store at 2:50 PM but only managed to get the car at 4:40 PM, even though my appointment was at 3:30 PM. Extremely long wait times. 2. The staff told me that there were no Group F large SUVs available and offered me a Group E smaller SUV instead. I clearly stated that I had prepaid and wouldn’t accept a downgrade. The staff then said they would upgrade me to an 8-seater van. I explained that I had booked an SUV specifically to experience driving an SUV on the Great Ocean Road. She actually blamed the lack of cars on the numerous Chinese tourists visiting during the Lunar New Year, saying it wasn't their fault. It was the first time I heard a rental company staff blame their poor vehicle management on customers. 3. Reluctantly, I agreed to the 8-seater van, but then she told me the vehicle hadn't arrived at the store yet and asked me to keep waiting. I waited another half hour with no sign of the car. I called the overseas hotline of Zuzuche, and after their customer service intervened, the staff member got upset and stressed several times that she was “serving me.” After another 15 minutes, she finally told me where the car was parked. 4. The staff kept pushing me to prepay 100 AUD for tolls and an additional 50 AUD airport tax, a total of 150 AUD. Even after I clearly refused, she entered these charges into the order anyway and printed it out. After repeatedly saying I didn't want to prepay, she finally crossed out the prepayment items on the printed order with a pen but didn’t change it in the computer. This caused issues when returning the car, as the staff there couldn’t finalize the return due to a “system error.” I had to explain the whole situation again, wasting another 30 minutes.

Completely satisfied with Hertz. While in Australia, I accidentally left the car keys inside and got locked out. The assistance team arrived quickly, wasting no time.

Terrible experience!!! Just awful!!! We booked a mid-size SUV, and HERTZ's list included four models: RAV4, OUTLANDER, X-TRAIL, and a Renault model, but we ended up with a very poor HYUNDAI TUCSON. It has weak power!! It struggled to climb hills in Melbourne and had turtle-like acceleration when loaded!! The key issue is that this car wasn't even listed in HERTZ's promotional brochure! False advertising!!!! Even worse, when returning the car at the airport, we had already refueled it fully, but the inspector (of Indian descent) claimed the tank was not full and said that refueling only counts if done within 15KM of the return location, allegedly according to their contract. This is pure extortion! We argued with this person, but he was very stubborn and forcefully charged us additional fees (refueling service fee + postage) and was very rude! We ended up speaking multiple times with the HERTZ office manager, who finally waived these charges!!! This fee was outright extortion!!! It wasted our time and energy, making us almost miss our flight!!! We will never use this damn company again!!!

Very good, the service was excellent, they always had a smile.
