I rented a Ford but received an old Isuzu. The staff did not inform me or guide me to inspect the car before having me sign a document stating the car was in good condition. Having rented cars many times in Australia, I trusted this chain and later realized it was a big mistake. The rental process went smoothly, but a few days after returning the car, I received an email claiming I had scratched the car. I asked for photos of the car in good condition at the time of rental, but they said none were taken and that it's the customer's responsibility to confirm the car's condition. I was shocked, as other rental companies always provide detailed photos of the car during pickup. It seems here that once a customer is misled into signing, they can blame any damage on the customer? They charged 4600 for a 4cm scratch. Fortunately, I had full insurance, but it took a month to get reimbursed. I've rented cars many times in the US, Europe, and Japan, and this is the first time I've had such a terrible experience with an Australian rental company.
The counter staff were unhelpful and didn't assist with car pickup or provide vehicle information. The car itself and the interior were generally fine but were covered in minor scratches. When I reported this, they just told me to take photos for evidence without providing any vehicle information for comparison. For returns, they just told me to take photos and drop the key in a box, without checking the car or asking for the car number or whether it was returned on time. This gave me no sense of security and made me feel vulnerable to being scammed. It also seemed like the car wasn't cleaned properly, as if it was handed directly to the next customer after I returned it.
