CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON CENTAURO AT BARCELONA AIRPORT, BCN

Satisfied

First, there were only one or two people at the rental counter, so the waiting time was quite long. I was the fourth in line and waited for over an hour. Second, the various service charges during the process were annoying (more mentioned in other reviews). After charging me a 1400 EUR deposit for vehicle damages, I saw the car I was renting, which was covered in scratches. I immediately took a full video of the car (see attachment), went back to the counter, and the staff said that the video was not acceptable, they needed photos (deliberate difficulty?). So, I took photos and argued with her for a long time. Finally, she reluctantly noted the scratches on my rental agreement and stamped it. Third, after completing the paperwork, I found out that I wasn't given the car model I reserved. They insisted that I accept a smaller Kia. If I disagreed, the only option was a manual car, or I had to wait until an automatic one was available, with no clear time frame. There was no apology whatsoever, even though they knowingly downgraded my car model. This was deceitful! Fourth, the car key had a low battery, and on the fifth day, we had to press the key against the start button to start the car. We needed to search for a Kia store to replace the battery since the car couldn't start with the key. You can imagine my panic! I don't even want to mention my feelings further. Overall, highly not recommended!!

Fatal en la recogida del coche, más de una hora esperando y al final tuve que ir a buscarlo por mis medios. También comentar que para la devolución se portaron muy bien y la persona me esperó hasta que lo entregué, un 10 para ella. El coche similar que me dieron era bastante más pequeño que el contratado

Efficient service, booking can be held for free for 12 hours. If you can't pick up the car at the agreed time, you can collect it within 12 hours.

I paid on way charge for the car from Barcelona - Valencia on QEEQ. But Centauro charged me extra for on way when I got to pick the car up. Case is on dispute with QEEQ and I will be seeking refund from my credit card company when I return to UK. As soon as we left Barcelona car engine management light came on, l continued with driving and it went. Hour later l lost power to the car, then stopped at hard shoulder and after turning car off for few minutes it worked. Anyway Centauro replaced the car next day but l lost a whole day. When we got to Valencia the office told me they need additional car so they will be keeping this car. Felt like being ripped off by driving car all the way to Valencia from Barcelona for free for them and they charged me well over €150, what a CON Company.

Smooth process but customer service not too good as l am disputing over €65 for extra charge.

The wait time was too long. I was supposed to pick up the car at 1 PM, but I didn't get it until 2 PM. There were only two people in line in front of me.

None of our card would work during the pick up to pay the deposit( there were 2 different customers there having the same issue), the staff was saying if we buy an extra insurence from them then we will not have to pay the deposit. Also they said my bank card was a prepaid one which totally wasnt, it was visa debit card. Very unpleasant experience during the pickup. Everything worked at the end however. Drop off was really easy and straight forward though.

Pretty good, except for the high deposit amount.

Focused on delivering happiness and freedom.

Professional and satisfactory. The car was in good condition with minimal scratches, unlike my previous rental experience with Europcar where the car had many scratches, leading to disputes afterward.

Very satisfied

Excellent

If the staff's statements are not truthful, what part of this rental company can be trusted?

Due to the inconvenience of parking in Barcelona, I returned the car early at a different location. There was a 40 EUR fee. The car pickup was convenient, with no additional requirements, and the car was new.

The service was professional. Although they introduced additional insurance, they proceeded with other formalities without any unpleasantness after I declined. The vehicle was relatively new and in good condition.

Very fast service

Very good.

Pretty good.
