Booked a Volkswagen Caddy medium MPV, but the car provided was in very poor condition, and the last row of seats couldn't be folded down. They then offered a Ford Galaxy for an additional £250, claiming it was a different class of vehicle. Due to time constraints, I signed the agreement, but later discovered that both cars belong to the same category. This is a hidden trap, be cautious.
At pickup, they said no cars in the same category were available, we had to upgrade. If not, we would have to wait for four hours, but I arrived at 8 PM, so I had to upgrade and ended up paying an additional £1000 for the 16 days.
Huge scam!!!! They said there were no issues when I returned the car, but when I got back home, I received a damage fine, even though I had full insurance. What made me the most angry was the Hertz staff. In Edinburgh, we paid for parking but still got a fine. After returning the car, we went to the front desk to discuss how to handle it. Initially, the Hertz employee was very nice and asked us to send the ticket and our parking receipt to Hertz, promising they would handle it. But then, all of a sudden, they changed their tune and told us to pay the fine first, saying they would help us get a refund from the city council. They even made us pay the fine right there on the spot, despite us risking being late for our flight. After paying, the Hertz employee immediately became hostile and ignored us, serving other customers instead. It felt very intentional and extremely frustrating, like something out of a TV drama. When we got angry and demanded an explanation, they said it was not Hertz's responsibility and we should deal with it ourselves! Later, we realized it was a trick. By making us pay, they shifted the dispute to be between us and the Edinburgh government. To appeal the fine, we would need to provide the car owner's information, but we couldn't process it without that. Only Hertz could resolve this mistake, but to avoid hassle, they tricked us! Otherwise, they would have been charged, and we would have had to provide proof, making it a dispute between the car owner and Edinburgh's government. Sadly, when I was studying in the UK, I heard about how bad Hertz staff were, and many people preferred to choose Europcar even if it was more expensive. Now I've seen it for myself, what a terrible company. The service is extremely poor, whether picking up or returning the car! PS: We waited forty minutes for the Hertz shuttle at the airport!
1. The attitude towards orders via Zuzuche is indifferent; 2. Child booster seat was estimated at 30 pounds by Zuzuche, but the actual charge was 70 pounds. Zuzuche can't confirm the price of additional items, but you can book a seat for 30 pounds through the Hertz website.
I clearly rented an automatic car, but was told there were none available. I had to pay significantly more to rent an automatic car, which felt very unfair.
I booked a Mercedes, but they gave me an Audi, claiming it was the same type. When I asked for the Mercedes I booked, Hertz said I'd need to pay more! Isn't your claim of 'same type' contradictory?
