Went straight to the Europcar office at Bergerac Airport and was sorted within a few minutes with no fuss with a very friendly lady at your counter
The car exceeded my expectations as it was nearly new and a lovely car to drive ( Peugeot 208)
We had expected a hybrid car but got just a Petrol Citroen C3. It was a good car with sufficient power and space and was an automatic as booked but a hybrid is more economical and environmentally friendly
All good although an issue with accepting a UK Post Office MasterCard Credit card for the holding deposit.
Refused to accept card and then had to provide another which was OK. Could not adequately explain what was wrong with the Post Office Credit Card.
Like: Staff were very welcoming, helpful and chatty. Knowledgeable about the car and happy to answer and questions or concerns. Car was slight upgrade from original booking and was of very good standard.
Dislike: Only two members of staff working through a busy period whilst I tried to hand the car back. Too busy to see everyone waited 20 mins without being served and was coming close to missing my flight.
Gentleman quickly served myself and another man dropping the car back, took the keys asked if everything was ok, and said deposit would be back with us.
Bit disconcerting as would have liked to check the car over together to ensure nothing done to vehicle afterwards and ensure I get my deposit back. Having said that, the staff were extremely busy and rushed, customers were stood in the sun and being typically British and impatient so I understand the reasons but will check to if my deposit has been received.
Overall as a first hiring experience, very good - Quick easy and value for money, would use again but could do with more staff to ease wait and stress on staff at busy periods.
