Buchbinder is extremely dishonest and even fraudulent. First, I refueled the car at a gas station within 2 kilometers from the return site, spending 55.63 euros (automatic shut-off). 2-3 minutes later, I returned the car. The staff checked the gauge and car condition without mentioning any issues and let me leave after I signed. After returning home, I was charged for 1/8 tank of fuel and repairs for scratches on the front underbody! The fuel charge is outright Buchbinder's shameless fraud! Additionally, the underbody scratches (not the front, you have to lie down to see them) were brought up afterwards, making it impossible for me to defend myself. I cannot determine if it was caused by stones or already existed before. Fortunately, they didn't claim for tire wear as well. However, the inspector did not mention this during the inspection. The worst part is they filled in car damage details on the blank signed inspection form afterwards and shamelessly claimed it was verified by my signature. I can't believe a European company can be so unethical and shameless! Had I known, I would have bought the full insurance they pushed hard during pickup to avoid the deductible loophole. Can you imagine such a shameless company? I've rented cars abroad more than 20 times, and this is the first time encountering such an infuriatingly shameless company. Even if it costs ten times more, I would want to take them to court!
The Mercedes Viano we originally requested was swapped for a Volkswagen Multivan. It drives like a bus, incredibly noisy and has horrible sound insulation! It's extremely uncomfortable to sit in. The front layout is like a truck with a two-seater next to the driver's seat, and the rear seats cannot be adjusted. There's no storage space at all, and we couldn’t even figure out where to put a cup of water. They claimed it was an upgrade, which is ridiculous! I will never use this rental company again. We spent over 10,000 on this trip and were expecting the comfort of a Mercedes, but ended up with nothing! Terrible!
In Frankfurt, the so-called driver's license certification provided by Zuzuche didn’t work with Global Drive, wasted 5 hours, and had to rebook a high-priced car with European Car through Zuzuche.
I booked a 320 on the website, but at the store, they insisted on giving me a 1.2T Skoda Fabia because I was under 25. The rental fee was not reduced, and I was forced to purchase full insurance and prepaid fuel.
