The extra policy sold to us stil meant we had to pay the hire company in the event of an accident.

Great service, very helpful and attentive. We arrived earlier than expected, and they picked us up promptly!

There was hardly any queue, possibly because of the time we arrived. We had a dedicated car to pick us up from the airport. It's a family business, and both the owner and his wife were very friendly. Unlike in China, you need to be aware of the deposit policy. It's not like Shenzhou Car Rental where the pre-authorization is immediately unfrozen upon return. The pre-authorization for my rental was 2500 NZD. Since we were heading to Sydney for our next stop, the owner's wife manually released the pre-authorization for us, although it might take some time to process. So if you have a tight budget, do prepare for this. Overall, it went smoothly, and I will rent from here again for a longer trip with family.

A bit hard to find the office upon picking up. Car is in average condition - not the cleanest, still had someone's used tissue paper in the car. GPS that comes with the car is in Japanese and probably hasn't been updated or anything to suit NZ map. No Bluetooth or aux input. Communication with the counter staff when picking the car was not the greatest. Otherwise, it's nice that they drop you off at the airport after returning the car.

All good. No problem.

The worst car rental experience I have never had. Picked up car and noticed 4 damages on the car which are not noted on the report, although those damages are not major, they are still obvious to see. I took photos of the damages I can see. Unfortunately, I missed a tiny stain like dent in the windscreen, it was 7 o'clock at night when I picked the car up and the windscreen is somewhat dirty with water stain because of the rain. With normal eyesight, I wouldn't even see the dent. Surprisingly, when the owner checking the car on our return, within less than half minute, he walked around the car, didn't even mention the other obvious damages which I took photos already, but went straight to the dent and spotted it up accurately in HEAVY POURING RAIN!! I have to say he must have a kind of special power to see it through the heavy water, and wipe water off exactly the area where the dent is. Even after he told me the exist of the dent, it is no way for us to find it until he found a towel to dry the area up, and I have to lean as closer as I can to the windscreen (less then 10 cm) to tell if it's a stain or dust. I felt I was totally tricked for money. I have asked the owner to fix the dent and charge me with the receipt, this was to make sure he is not using this dent again to trick other innocent people. However he charged $102 right after we left, I still have not received receipt showing dent is fixed. If you are using this company, make sure you don't pick up car after 6 pm in dark, you have to spend time check extremely carefully, wipe the windscreen while you checking. Totally ridiculous dishonest people just wanting more money. I have been renting cars travelling all over the world in past 20 years, never had any issue. This is a lesson for me indeed! I have taken some photos of the dent, but can't even tell where the dent is when I come back and looked. (not obvious enough for camera to pick it up).

Car was broken when it’s given to us on the first day and there was no other car can be replaced. The car was temporary fixed so we drove it home and found it still broken the next day which caused we are unable to use this car for the entire trip! Lovetrip doesn’t willing to provide full refund but only accept to refund first 2 days after several requests.
