A terrible car rental experience. Because we had a lot of luggage, we specifically rented a Volvo V90 Station Wagon (810 per day). When we arrived, they said they didn't have it, and the only automatic car available was a BMW 3 Series. They told us to take it or leave it. I was instantly frustrated! Later, they said they had a manual SEAT SUV (other rental websites offer it for 300 per day). You can imagine the disappointment of swapping a luxury brand flagship like Volvo for a budget brand manual SEAT. The staff insisted they were of the same level, OMG! Finally, they said they would refund 88 euros, not because of the downgrade, but out of sympathy for me. Since my other credit cards were out of money, I used an old credit card at this shop. After a 6-hour self-drive, we arrived at our destination only to find that my card had been fraudulently charged 110,000 pesos in Argentina. I quickly called the bank to freeze the card and had to go to an ATM late at night to prove I wasn't in Argentina. It was definitely the staff who did it because he was the only one who had used my card. The next day, I had to report it to the local police. It was the most troublesome trip in my six years of driving abroad. I wonder if the car rental company can handle it well. If not, I'll post about this on forums like Tianya and ShuiMu Community!

About Budget:4.0/10
Firstly, it was impossible to get ahold of anybody at the desk. My flight was going to arrive flight and it was going to be a race to make it to the Budget rental office before they closed. Qeeq couldn’t even get through to them.
Secondly, the vehicle was fine on the road but there were many scratches and a fair amount of damage, many of which were not on mentioned in the pick-up report. Instead of coming out to acknowledge the discrepancies I discovered, I was told to take photos and to rely on Budget at the time of the return to trust me. In other words, lack of courtesy and professionalism.
Upon the return late at night, near midnight, I had to insist that someone come out to inspect the car to take note of the damage discrepancies.
Finally, I did not appreciate the attempt to upsell another vehicle for three times the amount by way of some slick and inaccurately wording. I literally had to have them repeat three times and request the bottom line cost which was the only way to get the honest straight answer.
La voiture elle avait des impacts un peu partout ,à l’accueil ils m’ont dit que c’est très propre ,c’est pour ça j’ai pris plein de photos des impacts avant mon départ
