CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON EUROPCAR AT MARSEILLE AIRPORT, MRS

The car rental is just behind Marseille Airport. You can see many rental companies right after you exit the airport, and Europcar is very conspicuous. The paperwork takes quite some time, about 15 minutes per person. The pickup process is very convenient.

Pickup: The employee at the counter was patient and helpful, but the POS machines did not work well and caused us big problems. The employee at the parking slot did not offer much help and was hard to find. The car was not clean enough. Even knowing we would return the car to Geneva Airport, the employee did not inform us that: 1) it's mandatory to buy a €50 Swiss traffic license when entering Switzerland; 2) the car should be returned on the French side, which again caused us huge problems when returning the car. Neither point was specified in the rental car confirmation order. Drop-off: As mentioned, we arrived at the Europcar parking slot at Geneva Airport, but the first employee refused to accept the car and simply asked us to return it to the French side, or we would be charged €120. He provided a very simple map showing the way to the French side, but we could not find it even after an extra hour and three circles around the airport, and we almost missed our flight! Why does the same company have such a stupid and unfriendly policy?!! The distance between the two offices of the SAME COMPANY is just about 1.5KM according to the employee, so why should the customer be bothered by that??? Eventually, the second employee on the Swiss side agreed to take back the car, which took him only one minute! This was the worst car rental experience I've ever had in many countries, I must say!!!
