Europcar staff were not friendly. They did not provide a map to find drop off point

Europcar gave me a car with summer tyres, in Geneva, in winter, when I had reserved snow chains! They then tried to charge me double the rental cost for a car with winter tyres. They then charged me €240 because I left the car at the wrong Europcar drop off point in Geneva airport (3.6 miles away from the 'correct' Europcar drop off point). Absolute rip off company - avoid at all costs.

Easyrentcars was a good booking process - I will use again for other companies than Europcar.

Had to pay an additional Eur 200 for a car with winter tires. Had asked specifically for a car to drive in Switzerland. At the desk I was informed that driving the car I got in Switzerland was not allowed since it had only summer tires. Driving this car in Switzerland could result in fines and liability. But “you can pay extra for another car” staff then told me. I felt tricked and forced to pay extra.

Your website said cars were insured for use in Switzerland but failed to mentained wntertyres are mandated. We needed to upgrade the car to get the tyres at a cost of €210. Very unhappy and the Europcar girl was hopeless at dealing with the issue denying any association with the problem as the booking was not made directly. She then failed to give us the map for the return of the car. In Geneva finding the French side is very tricky and it took us over an hour of curcling the airport to find the place. In the end we picked up the map from the Swiss side and managed to return the car. Overall in an industry of continual gotchas this one was well up there.

The French pickup / return area at Geneva is very poorly signed and the directions given were really inadequate. On return, no staff were at the drop-off point and vans were blocking the few free spaces. Staff at the desk declined to give any receipt for the return of the car.
