Due to the pandemic, we were given a hard time by other rental companies in Paris, but Hertz was very friendly and rented a car to us. To show my gratitude, I upgraded the vehicle. However, due to changes in our return schedule, we needed to switch to a different drop-off location and exchange the car earlier. Firstly, contacting their customer service by phone was very difficult. Secondly, there were errors in the final bill. Nevertheless, after communicating with QEEQ customer service, the extra charges were refunded.

The car rental company refused to accept insurance from the credit card and kept persuading us to buy their insurance.

During return, the staff mentioned that the interior was not clean and there was sand. They asked for a 15 Euro cleaning fee or instructed us to go to a gas station to clean it before returning. There was no prior notice about this before renting, which felt quite unfair. Especially if you're rushing for a flight, you definitely can’t avoid the cleaning fee. Poor experience with this aspect of returning the car.

On returning the car at 9 am, there was only one lady at the check in counter inside the office. She was also the one that had to go out to check the vehicle conditions, the fuel used etc and can process 1 customer every 15 minutes or so. There were 6 people on line and you can estimate how long it took her. I almost missed my flight because of this!
