Had to wait in line for an hour to get the car at the beginning.

The rental store was deceptive. My bill at the store was over 1,200 euros, whereas I had already paid more than 500 euros online. I repeatedly confirmed that I had already purchased insurance and did not need additional coverage. The store staff, however, slyly insisted that the extra 700 euros was just a deposit and would be refunded if there were no issues. When returning the car, they claimed I had used the full insurance and signed the contract, so the order was closed and nothing could be done. This is not my first time renting a car in Italy, but it’s the first time I've encountered such a deceptive mandatory insurance practice. This is commercial fraud and I'm very upset, currently negotiating with the rental platform.

We chose to pick up the car at the Rome train station, which was very convenient. After completing the paperwork, a shuttle took us to the pick-up location. The staff was very efficient, and there was no waiting.

This rental ended up costing more than USD$900 with no clear explanation. This is outrageous and I have received no assistance whatsoever from multiple employees at your offices in Bologna Airport and Milan Malpensa Airport. The amount far exceeds our agreed contracted to price without any justification.
