About Europcar:6.3/10
Initially wanted to charge a "safety deposit" of 12,000 USD on our American Express Platinum card. No kidding. Then want to charge us $140 extra for LIA coverage. Lists displayed publicly were showing a different price (lol). Agent told us listings were outdated just to have us pay more. We found the listings were perfectly valid, so he made up another excuse (lol). After showing detailed coverage included with the card and losing almost one hour, agent "mysteriously" discovered an insurance package for half the price (he entered manually a 60% discount... which means he knew exactly what he was doing). Borderline scammy. Drop off went super well with a nice lady but pickup left a bitter taste.
I chose an international chain with a counter right outside the airport. The staff guided us to a shuttle that took us directly to the nearby rental office. We queued up using a computer system. Although I booked a Toyota, they gave me a Dodge. They accepted domestic credit cards. It was a bit crowded so the wait was long, but everything went smoothly in the end.
We experienced very good service and the car was in excellent condition. However, we were surprised to learn that since we didn't purchase insurance in Mexico (our US insurance covered international) we had to put a deposit of $8,000 down on our credit card in case we didn't return the car. Luckily we had a high enough credit limit to do this and they never actually charged our card.
Eerie car don’t respect the conditions I have tu pay more Mony for insurance and the rent was the more expensive rent I paid in hole my life, very very bad!!! Experience
Europcar was very misleading about needing to have insurance after my booking online indicated that I just needed to show proof of insurance. I will not book again through either of these companies.
