CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON EUROPCAR AT NICE AIRPORT, NCE

Service du personnel ne nous a pas prévenus de dommages sur la voiture. il ne nous a pas expliqué comment conduire la voiture (c'était une voiture hybride). La voiture n'était pas au bon endroit qu'on nous avait dit et il n'y avait personne à qui demander. Nous avons perdu trop de temps et nous avons été stressés. Je pense que quelqu'un aurait dû nous accompagner pour voir si tout allait bien pour la voiture.

Europcar option came out cheapest for renting Alfa Romeo Giulietta “or similar”. However 1. When went to pick the car our chosen car was not provided and was referred to the clause on advert which says "or similar". However the car provided (cannot remember its name but some sort of Opel) was/and is in no way similar to Alfa Romeo. Looked around at Europcar car park both when picking the car and when dropping it but could not see Alfa Romeo at all so I am sure they lied on advert about having Alfa Romeo in stock at all and were always going to rely on clause "or similar". Extremely dishonest 2. When I arrived at counter with my booking Europcar guy tried very hard to rent me an expensive luxury car instead. The price quoted was 8 times of what I had booked for. (Common sense that I would have booked an expensive car in the first place if I wanted). Pressure tactics like this are very stressful when you have come off a long flight with children early in the early morning. 3. When Europcar were unable to convince me with renting their expensive car, an expensive additional fully comprehensive insurance of nearly double that of the price of rent was charged). I had no option but to accept as excess premium was £1500 without this additional insurance. I had similar experience in the past when you pick the car they find faults with your online comprehensive insurance so I never get a fully comp insurance online and rely on buying it on the day. However the price charged by Europcar was 3 times of what was quoted in the online offer. 4. The car provided consumed much more fuel than a normal compact car and certainly more than Alfa Romeo. Although I had told Europcar beforehand that I will be going lots of miles. 5. As per the contract I was forced to use Fuel type E5 which is more expensive that Fuel type E10. Later on I found out that manufacturer recommends any of E5 or E10 fuels for that car. Again this was dishonest.

No issues

Déçu par la voiture réceptionné Attente terrible a la réception du véhicule environ 2 heures. Restitution très facile et rapide Personnel très agréable et professionnel.

Quick transfer to get the car and staff very pleasant - car was almost new!

booking platform great and very competitive prices - will definitely use again

Excellent service at the desk during pick up. Gave good tips for our trip.

Enthusiastic service, quick car pickup

En résumé : Temps de vol Paris -Nice :1h15 , temps d’attente pour récupérer le véhicule 1h15 , jamais vu cela !

Ras

Over 2 hours before we saw our car - terrible would not use them again.

No issues

The price online didn't match up with price we were charged for car hire. Don't like being ripped off.

If you don t have the car available than do not advertise it! I paid more than 700 euro for a Peugeot, unacceptable

Nous avons attendu presque 2 heures pour récupérer notre véhicule, avec 2 enfants et étant prétendument en file "prioritaire". Aucune vérification du véhicule effectuée par EuropCar lors de sa récupération. On nous a proposé une upgrade vers un véhicule "offre spéciale super interessante": plus de 2 fois plus cher pour avoir un véhicule de catégorie supérieure: scandaleux !

Excellent service

Kindly réception, but waiting 30 ans Need add blue additive...bad surprise (But europcar reembursed at pickoff...)

Quick pickup, good service

We waited over an hour to pick up our vehicle.. we would not use Europcar again

Try to give me a smaller car than I booked and were only interested in selling me an upgrade. Took nearly an hour of arguing to get a car big enough. Terrible customer service

All good

No

No

Very efficient. There might be non-mandatory offers for insurance and vehicle upgrades, which you can politely decline.

Arrived earlier then booked pick up time , told me they didn’t have a car in My group (BS) ! Tried to up sell me Mercedes A class for extra 490 euro ! I went back at booked time to be given A damaged car, with filthy glass !! Never will I rent from euro car .

L'adresse indiquée sur le contrat pour restituer le véhicule (avenue Gustave V) n'est pas celle du garage (rue Halevy), mais celle du bureau ... d'où une perte de temps dans les encombrements de fin de matinée à Nice. L'employé,pourtant pas seul dans l'agence, n'a pas accepté de prendre en charge le véhicule et nous avons donc perdu beaucoup de temps ! Par ailleurs, ayant demandé qu'un taxi soit appelé, il nous fut indiqué qu'une station était au bout de la rue ! nous sommes donc parti en traînant nos valises, bien énervés !
