I was rear-ended and returned the car to the rental company. The staff had a very unpleasant attitude, which was uncalled for! I was the victim, and I didn't want the car to be damaged either! I paid for the initial repair costs myself, and then I swapped for another car, but had to return it at the airport. The city office told me that I could claim the repair receipt at the return location, but when I got to the airport, nobody explained anything. I almost missed my flight after trying to explain for 40 minutes. Their service and efficiency were truly disappointing. However, a Chinese girl in charge of cleaning cars helped translate and explain for us, and her attitude was much better than those at the front desk. Unfortunately, there were no Chinese-speaking staff or interpreters at all at the airport. Though we could communicate, many technical terms were hard to understand. This is clearly worse compared to other car rental companies.
1. We booked a 'mid-size' car, specifically a Toyota Corolla automatic or similar on the car rental site, but we were given a very compact Hyundai i20. In the rental site options, I couldn't even select an i20; the smallest option was a Hyundai i30, neither of which fit the definition of a mid-size car.
2. Our original rental was for three days, but when shortened to two days, the daily rate increased. The total for three days was AU$196.49, averaging less than AU$66 per day. However, at the counter, changing to a two-day rental was no problem, but the price was quoted as AU$78 per day. When asked why, they simply said the original quote didn't apply.
3. None of the insurance options selected on the rental site were recognized by Budget. We had to purchase all new insurance options at the counter. When asked why, the response was that the insurance provided on the website wasn't their responsibility; they only honor insurance packages offered at the counter.
Pretty good. Rented the car downtown, and it was quite nice. It seems like we got a free upgrade.
