Good value car rental

On October 3rd, after we landed, I called them to inform them that we had arrived. They told me to call again once we were outside the gate. When I called again, they said to wait 15 minutes. We, 3 adults and a baby, waited in the cold wind for more than 20 minutes. After finally getting on the shuttle bus, we had to wait for other people as well. The car was not at the airport. The staff had a very bad attitude, did not let us inspect the car before signing, and did not help us install the baby seat we paid for! The reviews said the car had a reversing camera, but when I was reversing, I found out it didn't! This led to me hitting a small mailbox, and now they are asking for over 900 dollars! When returning the car on October 17th, I waited at the office for 15 minutes before someone showed up. We negotiated from 4 PM to 6 PM. I said I would complain to the car rental service, and a female manager with short hair and glasses said they could take half the responsibility and charge me around 500 dollars. She wanted me to pay them 500 dollars at that moment and said the total cost would be over 900 dollars. However, my friend asked different car rentals in New Zealand, and the quotes were around 400-500 dollars. I believe in being honest! This car rental company caused this issue by not providing a car with a reversing camera as promised. Their attitude was also bad. They charged me 90 dollars for delivering a spare key, which I quickly paid. I was willing to pay for the parking fee myself. Still, I cannot accept this unreasonable demand for such a high amount, especially when the responsibility is unclear. I believe I am not at fault and got involved in a mess! It ruined my mood, and I feel wronged! This is the worst car rental experience I've ever had!

Pick up and drop off was extremely prompt and efficient. Photos were taken of the car and a quick check done on drop off. Previously with a different rental company at drop off they went over it in minute detail that gave the impression that any little tiny stone chip would result in a charge but ezu indicated that little stone chip on the front would be considered normal wear and tear so that was comforting to us after our prior experience. we would definately use them again.

The car had over 100,000 km on it with several scrapes and scratches, not that I cared, except that they charged me $83NZD for "damage" to the front and back of the car, however, in the pictures they sent I could not see any damage (I could be wrong, but if there was anything it was just minor scrapes that were indistinguishable from the rest of the scrapes and scratches already on the car). While the price was by far the lowest, and I did like their touch of providing a cell phone holder on the vent and a double USB 9V adapter to plug your phone cords into, it was very difficult to get a pickup from the airport since we were traveling internationally and did not have cell phone service. Likewise, they did not provide drop off instructions so when we arrived at 6:45am or so and no one was there and the gate was locked we were lucky to find the somewhat hidden and unmarked drop box attached to their gate (which appeared to technically be on the property next door which is a trucking or shipping company, so we took a chance on that being the EZU key drop box and not the trucking company drop box or a mailbox).

Maybe have a early morning key drop off service
