Strange customer service rep

Pros: The price of the rental car

Cons: The AGNET charged me two security deposites. One valued at 1600 euros which was not even registered in the rental contract. It was really fishy. Also, the agnet tried to rip me off by charging me additional 350 euros for changing the drop off location within the same city. i refused and eventually changed the drop off location at no additional charge.

Final bill was significantly more than reservation estimate.

Pros: 1. The Fiat car was great; very nice.

Cons: 1. The reservation did not "clearly" explain this Budget location was on the French side of the Geneva airport; not the Swiss side. 2. Renting from the French side resulted in an additional $40 purchase of a Swiss highway sticker to drive on Swiss roads. 3. The final bill was over $100 more that my estimate noted in the reservation. I will need to investigate and determine exactly what happened.

Swiss pickup woes

Pros: Lovely car, smooth drop off

Cons: Like Basel, Geneva has a Swiss and French side. After following signs for Rental, and waiting almost 15 minutes on the Swiss side to be served, I was told that the booking was on the French side. Had to drag the kids to the far side of the airport and queue again. Very frustrating. It should be made clear on the booking the requisite directions where potent for confusion exists.

Deteriorating customer service

Pros: No problems with car.

Cons: No windshield washer fluid, was a real problem driving in bad weather on the highway. I guess that's something I assumed would be there. Unfortunately, this is not the first time. Service not nearly as helpful as usual. In the past we have made an effort to rent from Hertz because of the extra effort they have made at this location. This time they made out the whole contract and we were about to sign when we noticed it was 300 € over our reservation price. Had to re-do. Price was already about 50% higher than what we usually pay at this location (Geneva airport, French sector) Also, we seemed to remember always getting snow tires in the winter as part of the standard package. Apparently not.

Very misleading rental process with Kayak and Hertz in Geneva

Cons: The online rental process is completely misleading and full if miscommunication (on purpose?): The pick up location was on the French side of the airport, but until the last step of the booking process Kayak and Carrentals stated "Swiss side" Usually no vignette for Swiss highways is included on the French side, so you pay CHF 40 extra The car did not come with winter tires, not sure thst is legal

Great car, poor customer service.

Pros: The car itself was great, clean, operationally sound and comfortable.

Cons: No GPS or automatic transmission options, making for a very difficult trip through Europe. Additionally, the staff at the Hertz stations were extremely unhelpful. Really disappointed in the customer service. Tried to drop off the car at the Geneva airport in Switzerland. Turns out there are 2 locations, one on the French side and another on the Swiss side. They would not help us get from one to the other, leading to 2 hours of circling the airport. "Good luck" is all we got.

Challenges when collecting the rental car.

Cons: The rental company didn't accept visa debit card. The rental was actually done by hertz. And from my experience hertz is very ridge and not friendly. I who'd prefer to know these things in advance.

It was a disaster!

Pros: You said it will cost 267 frank I end up paying 987 frank for different reasons. Some of it my fault but I wasn't expecting that at all and the website fee was completely misleading.

not the nicest customer service

Pros: The car I ended up with was decent.

Cons: I had to pay significantly more for a larger car, when I had explicitly asked for a car above the compact size. Thrifty representative used scare tactics to try to include additional insurance.

Another good rental

Pros: The car was well prepared and had no faults of any kind, and the price was competitive.

Cons: It would be helpful to tell drivers to enter Building 51 in the far right lane to get to the drop off zone. There are signs, but a reminder from Europcar would be helpful.

Good car, lowest price at last minute

Pros: We decided to rent a car at the last minute, there wee very few cars avaialable. Our car was nearly 600 Euro for 1 week, much more than we expected, but still nearly 100 Euro less than the next company and 200 Euro less than Hertz. The drop-off was strange, no one gave me any paperwork but hopefully that will be OK.

Cons: The people at the car return were not very professional, kept talking to one another and ignored me for some time. They didn't give me any paper that certified that I returned the car. In retrospect, I should have insisted that they give me a receipt.

Change of car type

Pros: Quick service

Cons: The pushing of the reception employee to upgrade to a higher car for almost 50% extra on my reserved class . When I rejected ... he told me the car I requested in not ready and will give you a bigger and higher class car for the same price . Later I found that he gave me lower class car which can not be compared at all with the one I paid for ..

Very nice staff, good car

Pros: The staff was very friendly and helpfull ( Claire and Maktum in Geneve!). It was not clear to me that my reservation would be ended after two hours after pick-up time. So there was no car reservated anymore. Both Claire and Maktum were very helpfull in finding a similar car. It took a while because of some technical problems with the first choice, but after all it was a very comfortable and reliable car.

Cons: The fact that my reservation was not extended till my plane has arrived, but I didn't know that that should heve been indicated or phoned in advance.
