CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON EUROPCAR IN MELBOURNE

All good as always!

Great as always

the counter staff was helpful. the process was smooth. car was clean

did my booking through the app, fuss free process

Europcar staff at collection point is good and helpful, however the collection point was confusing as it was off airport.

The off airport pickup point was pretty confusing as the instruction wasnt very clear. The staff at the phone helpdesk was quite helpful but was refer to a wrong location and spend quite long moving around to get the correct location.

Terrible staff at the pick up counter. First they told us that our booked car had been damaged by the previous owners and that they dont have a spare car. Over an hour later there was suddenly a Mercedes C300.. spare.. out of the blue. New car was fine for us. Just a few grumpy people at the desk.

Wonderful car but pricey

Best car rental app

Onboarding and Guidance was on point - they had made sure that I understood the rules before handover. The car was fresh and clean as I was given the keys for a brand new car which had only driven 17 kms.

10/10 for the customer support an booking experience

When picking up and dropping off the car at Melbourne Airport, the rental company did not mention any additional charges. After returning home, I received a notification from the rental company stating that picking up and dropping off at the airport incurs extra fees.

Excellent swift service

Another great experience

Poor communication to customer I requested for a Mercedes Benz and on nowhere on my booking confirmation that it states clearly that I must have a credit card. I was denied the car of my choice as I don’t have a credit card. They did not accept my debit card. The manager at Europ car classified your website as “dodgy website”. There was no mention of a specific amount of deposit, I was asked to pay $500 before they can release a car of my choice even though I’ve been denied my preferred car- Mercedes’ I was given a car called GM, which took more time for me to understand it’s logistics and I have a child with me I rate this the worst travel ever

This is a terrible car rental company. They gave me a broken car with a dead battery that can't charge itself, making it impossible to start. This ruined two days of my trip! Afterwards, they kept charging my credit card without providing any invoices. My time in Melbourne was ruined because of this car issue. Never go for these big name companies again. Garbage! Cheaters!

We waited a little while for the staff who appeared extremely disorganised to work through the queue of people. We were provided information over the phone which was then contradicted by counterstaff. The pick up of the car was relatively easy from there apart from having to navigate down several empty floors of a multi storey car park to get out! However drop off was terrible (afterhours) - couldn't get into the car park to leave the car and the courtesy bus promised to the airport was not available and we had to use Uber!!

Everything was excellent

Price was very good

Easy enough to catch shuttle bus but not great directions in confirmation of where to catch shuttle from.

Easy to book, good pricing but not easy to distinguish between pick up at airport and shuttle pickup

This negative review is for Europcar. Despite having cars available, they insisted on giving me a Kia or Nissan. I was headed to the mountains and they gave me a two-wheel drive car, claiming that I wouldn't need a four-wheel drive for the snow. That evening, it snowed and I had to put on snow chains in the freezing cold, something that wouldn't be necessary with a four-wheel drive. The Eastern European staff member with the big nose had an extremely poor attitude, acting like whatever he gave me was the only option. If any Chinese people go there in the future, they should really stand up to him. I rarely leave negative reviews, but if the service industry behaves like they're doing you a favor, who will use their service? Moreover, there were no tourists around, yet he was still making such excuses. Unbelievable.

Good vale & a female staff was picked phone and she is a very patient to answer my questions, and helped us to fine the right petrol number to fill the car that we rented. Thanks to her.

Only one things I need to ensure that i am waiting 500 AU$ to return $500 deposit for car rental to me as soon as possible. Thanks

Car was well maintained and clean Easy city pickup location

Was given a free upgrade to an SUV instead and pleasantly surprised at the quality and cleanliness of the car.

Got back to me immediately and helped me solved the issue of discrepant particulars online

Thought I was getting a commodore as the ad. suggested only to be told that you don't have commodores.

I didn't realize the connection between easy and europe, not that it mattered.

There needs to be better staffing at the parking so multiple customers can be serviced at the same time. Process is very very cumbersome and needs to be improved significantly.

Perfect

Excess human involvement. The process could be significantly more electronic or simplified. They had to shuffle through keys thrown in a draw for 5-10 minutes before discovering they didn't have the car model ordered so they provided a suitable but very different alternative.

The experience of renting through a rental broker and not directly from a rental company was a little uncomfortable at first (is this transaction legitimate/am I getting ripped off) but in the end the cost saving was worth the third party being involved in the process.
