Satisfied

Cons: Rented a BMW 1 Series but was given a Golf. The full insurance was bought from a domestic insurance company, and the rental company couldn't see it, so they kept reminding me that I hadn't bought insurance. Pros: Picking up and returning the car was very convenient.

I paid the full rental amount in advance, but the store charged me again without any notice. They provided no receipt and didn't inform me. This is very unprofessional. They promised to refund the extra charges to my credit card within 6-7 days, but they never did. Picking up the car was also troublesome. They said the pre-booked car was unavailable, and the provided car was too small for my luggage. It took about 15 minutes of communication to resolve this. However, I was satisfied with the car I eventually received.

When picking up the car, many things were not communicated clearly, and there were issues contacting the rental company. We picked up the car at Frankfurt Airport and were told we had to pay even though we had already paid in full in our home country. The representative said they couldn't find the payment on the system. After calling the rental company and sending some pictures, the issue was resolved. They mentioned a fee of five euros per day for additional drivers and a cross-border fee, which was acceptable. However, when returning the car, they said the payment was incomplete. Besides the additional driver and cross-border fees, there was a 21% tax, totaling 389 euros. After contacting the rental company again, we finally paid 329 euros. This process was quite unreliable, even if the rental price was relatively cheap. Can't the rental company standardize their operational procedures?

I was upsold full insurance multiple times during pickup, even after informing them I already bought it domestically. It was irritating and I couldn't drive at ease throughout the trip.
Otherwise, everything was great, convenient, and fast. I originally booked a manual wagon and paid an extra 10 euros to upgrade to an automatic Jaguar. It was a new car, and cars abroad get updated quite quickly.
