I have rented cars abroad many times in Europe, but my experience with Europcar in London was exceptionally troublesome and disappointing. I strongly advise against choosing this company in London. From the very beginning, the car pickup staff try to sell insurance and make intimidating remarks, followed by complicated processes involving various fines, and ending with a series of email hassles related to returning the car. For such a large company, their London branch is full of pitfalls, fines, and inexplicable issues that will cause you significant trouble. The service and overall experience are extremely poor. Among all the car rental companies I have used many times, this one is by far the most frustrating and stressful. Renting a car is supposed to enhance convenience, especially when traveling abroad where there may already be language barriers, but this company will ensure you deal with endless issues during your trip. Choose wisely, and I strongly suggest avoiding this company in London.

Very good, the service is very fast.

The drop-off location closed at 1 PM, but there was no reminder when we rented the car, and the system did not display this information. We had scheduled our return for 4 PM, but when we arrived within the designated time, there was no one to assist us. After calling for assistance, we deposited the keys into the self-service drop box. The rental company didn't process our return until two days later, charging us for an additional two days... The issue remains unresolved after communication.

Persistently pushing insurance and failing to mention important things when renting the car, such as the congestion charge in London.

I had an accident when I was traveling in the UK around 1 a.m. But, they didn't respond, and I had to deal with the situation by myself. So, hope to enhance the midnight emergency service. Except for it, it was perfect.
