They forced me to pay an extra 300 Euros for insurance, claiming it was mandatory to guarantee with a personal VISA chip card. I contacted the after-sales service of the rental platform immediately, but to no avail, so I had to pay.
I rented a car for 16 days, and on the 9th day, the car broke down and needed engine oil. There was no roadside assistance, and I had to drive the car back from France to Düsseldorf to get a replacement, which greatly disrupted my travel plans, costing me time and fuel. Additionally, the French highways charged tolls. When I changed the car on the 9th day, they said they had reported it to the manager and I would be compensated when I returned the car. Today, when I returned the car, they said the manager had not approved it and I need to wait for an email. I really don't know what the outcome will be!!
First, I want to thank the Zuzuche platform. Over the past few years, I have frequently used this platform to rent cars for my overseas trips. This review is about my car rental experience at Frankfurt Airport in Germany. Originally, I requested a Ford wagon considering the length of my luggage. However, after completing the procedures at Terminal 1 and heading to the underground parking, I found an Opel compact car instead. Their parking lot had many cars, including numerous Ford wagons as requested. There were no service personnel in the parking area, so I returned to the service desk to explain the situation. I insisted on the Ford wagon, but the customer service tried to increase the price. Unable to reach an agreement, I decided to cancel the rental and called Zuzuche in China. During this call, the service personnel then mentioned that a Ford wagon was available in Terminal 2. I immediately went there, completed the procedures, and found the car in the parking lot without any assistance. After inspecting the car, I noticed obvious scratches on the front and back bumpers. I took photos and went back to the service desk to report it. They said that if I provide the photos with time and location when returning the car, it would be fine. With this confirmation, I started my trip. However, during the return, they made an issue about the front scratches being recorded but not the rear ones. They asked me to send the photos to their email and noted the situation in German on the return document. After returning home, I sent the photos and details to their email. Soon after, I received a charge of 1000 Euros on my credit card, in addition to the 1000 Euro deposit taken during the rental. I felt scammed, especially considering a German rental company shouldn't rent out damaged cars, particularly when there were many other normal cars available. This happened in Frankfurt, which was very unexpected. Looking around, other rental companies had rented out most of their cars, while this company had many cars left in the garage. It clearly indicates issues with their business model. Currently, I have reported this to Zuzuche customer service, who are helping me recover the charges. I suggest not cooperating with such dishonest companies and ensuring the rights of domestic users renting cars abroad, as we trust Zuzuche to assist us when problems arise overseas.
my only complaint was at Buchbinder they have plastic boxes with lots of keys in each box. Originally I was going to get a Fiat Panda, then he changed his mind and said ill give you this instead. I am still trying to work out how the picture I have sent is like the one I ordered or similar ? I was so tired as I had been up since Thursday 15:00pm so around 23hrs and we had a 60min drive to Dortmund. I think it wouldn't of mattered what I ordered from Easyrentals, Buchbinder just pick a key out the box.
