The vehicle was poorly maintained; after driving less than 100 kilometers, an AdBlue warning appeared. Not having driven a diesel before, I didn't know what AdBlue was and almost had a breakdown. Ended up spending money on AdBlue myself, which delayed my trip by nearly an hour.
The car rental customer service was a Spanish lady who tried to sell me additional insurance. Despite me showing proof that I had already purchased full coverage, she refused to look at it and exaggeratedly claimed, 'What you bought is yours, what I recommend is mine. If you didn't buy it...!' We firmly and repeatedly emphasized that we would not purchase additional insurance. We resolutely said NO! Then she got a bit angry and ignored me. After a standoff, I asked if I could get the car keys. She responded that it wasn't 3 PM yet, which was my scheduled pickup time. So, I stepped back a few steps, waited for a few minutes, and received a pickup note or possibly a contract. She vaguely pointed to the side with her hand. I assumed I had to get the keys from the neighboring window, but the lady at the neighboring window told me to go to the parking lot at the back to get the car! Apart from the unpleasant experience with the insurance upselling, everything else was fine. If I had accepted her insurance offer, the total cost would have reached 600 Euros, which is double the price!
They took advantage of us not understanding English, and noted on the rental form that we chose prepaid fuel. When I questioned this, the staff claimed it was a fuel deposit for returning the car at a different location, and it would be refunded if returned full. But the bank charges showed no refund, and they overcharged by $300. No idea what the fee is! Never renting from Hertz or Thrifty again!!!! Currently trying to find out through the rental platform what the $300 charge is for.
I placed my car rental order at least two months in advance, yet I had to wait over an hour to complete the paperwork and our chosen model wasn't available. Despite booking so early, they switched our car and made us wait so long. I have no idea what you guys are doing.
The guy on our return was quite rude. The way he drove the rental car, the way he accused us of damaging the car. The Canadian guy when we arrived couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.
