We were upgraded by chance which was great and meant we had a satnav built in. Staff were extremely friendly at Lille Europe and didn't push for us to take their insurance as we had our own. Car in great condition and very helpful staff.
This company is really terrible. The service attitude is awful. When borrowing the car, they were dismissive, and during the car return inspection, they asked me to leave the keys and said they would inspect later. How would I know if they would record some scratches and blame it on me? I had to insist on being with them during the inspection, which they were reluctant to do, and then they made me wait! During the inspection, they found a very tiny paint chip that I didn't capture because of the angle and the dark parking lot. They also pointed out many hidden damages (I think they know exactly where the damages are because they only check if you've taken photos, not the dates). Luckily, I had taken photos of everything, so they couldn't say much. After returning the car, they didn't email me the inspection report. Two weeks later, they charged my card 400+ euros, and then another 700+ euros – one claimed to be a fine (but didn't provide any documents) and the other for a late return (even though I provided my flight details showing I was at the gate). A month later, they charged another 600+ euros without explaining what it was for. This car rental company in France is absolute garbage. There was also a time when the car had issues, and changing the car took from morning till 4 PM, wasting my whole day. Other locations asked questions and then claimed they had no cars. Finally, they found an excuse that I needed to go to the original pickup location to change the car, which took over 2 hours to return to Charles de Gaulle. Utterly ridiculous. If you rent from AVIS at Charles de Gaulle Airport, be very cautious; it's a huge scam!
When we got to the pickup desk we were told that the car type we booked was not available and were offered a Fiat 500 as a substitute which was no good as I needed space for my wheelchair which is why we had booked the car type in the first place we were charged additionally for a Dacia Duster.
