Very satisfied

I booked a Volkswagen Touareg four months in advance, but they gave me an Audi A6 instead. This is hard for me to accept, but I had no choice because there were no other cars available, and the rental company didn't provide any explanation. We are a family of five with a lot of luggage, so we booked a large car. How are we supposed to fit our luggage in a sedan? The trunk couldn't fit everything, so we had to carry two pieces of luggage inside the car, which defeats the point of booking a specific model. The website stated 'similar models', but giving us a sedan instead of another similar large car is unreasonable. Secondly, I paid 30% more for the Touareg compared to the A6. Why did they give me a cheaper car despite my higher payment? This lack of honesty affected our comfort throughout the 16-day trip. A better car with a higher price is acceptable, but a lack of basic integrity makes future bookings questionable, as paying a premium didn't mean getting the reserved car. This shows a complete lack of contract spirit.

We had read the reminders provided by Zuzuche before arriving at the Frankfurt store, but the staff informed us that the car we booked was unavailable and gave us a similar one, which actually had a much smaller trunk. They did not ask us if we needed GPS or any additional services though we declared that we didn't need any extras and had already paid through Zuzuche. When signing the agreement, the staff positioned the paper so it covered the upper part, which we couldn't see. After signing it, we found out about the additional charges only when returning the car. We have rented cars directly or through Zuzuche from various companies across Europe multiple times, but this was the first time we faced such an issue. It was also shocking that we couldn't communicate in English over their customer service phone line. We will definitely not choose Europcar again, as this was highly dishonest and felt like a scam! Zuzuche also refused to help us further because we had signed the agreement, which was very disappointing!

I picked up the car at Frankfurt Airport, it was very convenient! The attendant was very patient! My English is not very good, but he explained everything patiently! To my surprise, I was given a Renault Scenic MPV, which was larger than the car I had booked! Nice!

The rental office is near the train station, but there's another one close by, which could be confusing. However, it wasn't a big issue.
