I rented a Previa and was upgraded to an Alphard for free. I was delayed a bit while picking up luggage at the airport, but the staff waited patiently for a long time. The pickup procedure was fairly simple, and the car came with a full tank. Overall, very satisfied.

My English is nearly non-existent, and I quit my job to come to New Zealand with my three kids to study. The challenges I faced at the beginning were overwhelming. I really appreciate the store's Chinese-language service—the staff were so warm and friendly. It gave me such comfort in a foreign country. This was my first time driving a right-hand drive car, and I arrived safely at my destination with sweaty palms. Just a reminder to everyone: safety first and drive with extra caution.

This was my first time renting a car in New Zealand, driving through the South Island from the central route to the eastern route. Over 9 days, I drove more than 1500 kilometers and was very satisfied overall. The hybrid vehicle was fuel-efficient and provided an excellent driving experience, even better than my own gasoline car. Andrew, the staff member at the shop, was extremely helpful and patiently explained everything. He even recommended a local weather forecast app and quickly assisted in answering my questions about snow chains.

I have rented from this company before in Australia, and both the pickup and drop-off processes were very simple. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and trouble, you can follow QEEQ's instructions to take photos during pickup and drop-off. The staff were very attentive, and since my English is not great, the communication took a bit longer.

Extremely satisfied! On the day we went to the South Island, there was heavy snow in the mountains. We rented a compact car, and the staff at the store kept reminding us to be cautious. In the end, they even provided us with snow chains for the car free of charge (normally priced at 4 NZD per day).

Very satisfied. The car was in excellent condition, the service was attentive, and there was even personalized service. As it was our first time renting a car in New Zealand, they patiently and promptly addressed our questions. The vehicle was in great condition, equipped with ACC, lane-keeping assist, and speed limit reminders, which were very convenient. The interior space was large, and we managed to fit 6 to 7 suitcases.

The overall experience was very reliable. Picking up and returning the car was convenient, and there were no issues during the trip. The most commendable part was the test drive when picking up the car, which greatly helped me get familiar with traffic rules and right-hand drive. Since I purchased full insurance, I didn't need to take pictures beforehand, meaning any issues would be covered by the insurance company, so I had no concerns.

When I reserved a rental car, I also signed up for full coverage insurance. However, I did not understand when I was told that if there was an accident and damage, I would have to pay 5900 NZD first and claim the damage amount separately from the insurance company. If you signed up for insurance at the same time as reserving a rental car on the reservation site, it would be normal for the rental car company and the insurance company to handle each other's insurance processing so that there is no cost to the customer. Also, I was told that if I signed up for insurance directly with ACE Rental Cars at the pick-up counter, I would not have to pay any costs even if an accident occurs, but I ended up signing up for double insurance.

Pretty good, returning the car was very convenient!

As I stated above, the car given to us was smaller than what we booked. The counter staff members were not accommodative to our request for a slightly bigger car as we had more baggage, which was supposed to fit well in the car we had booked. Also, we had to pay a speeding fine of NZD 30 through SNAP that charged us NZD 50 as administrative charge, which was a rip off! The staff at the counter was not particularly friendly and took longer time to attend to me particularly when I returned the car.

When picking up the car, I informed the staff that I had already purchased insurance, but the staff insisted on adding local insurance, citing communication issues. It wasn't until after I paid the $200 deposit with my card that I realized an additional insurance fee had been charged. When I asked for a refund, I was told that the payment was non-refundable. The only option was to cancel the entire order for a refund, which would leave me without a car. Finally, I sought assistance from QEEQ customer service, and the issue was resolved satisfactorily.

She was professional, helpful, and both picking up and returning the car went smoothly. We noticed there were many people renting cars in Christchurch, and the staff seemed relatively few.

Car was old, dented body work, quite dirty, and very noisy to drive, not great suspension. We quickly realised why it was so much cheaper than the other care hire places. Staff friendly but clearly not enough of them and low staff morale. On our arrival they initially told us we'd have to wait two hours after the scheduled pick up time for our car to be ready. After a 36 hr plane journey from Europe with 3 small children this was completely unacceptable. We said so and they somehow rustled up a far in 20 minutes... Tank wasn't full but they were relaxed about it.

I left my phone in the car and had to wait half a day for them to retrieve it and then arrange my own courier.

They did not have the car I requested, and tried to "upgrade"me to a larger car. Unfortunately, bigger does not always mean better when hiring cars to drive around an unfamiliar city.

Our flight information changed the morning we were leaving the USA for our trip, which was two days before we attempted to pick up the car. I called right cars, knowing there was a time difference and it was late at night in New Zealand, however I wanted to confirm the change in pickup time as soon as I found out the flight information changed. We were originally to land around 1pm, and it changed to land at 11pm. A man answered who said he was working from home, and I told him I wanted to make sure we could pick up when we landed even if it was at night outside of office hours. He confirmed, saying that he was going to be on shift at that time. When we landed, I called for the shuttle and the same man told me no one was there, that I was supposed to pick up the car at 11am THE NEXT DAY. I told him that I could not come back the next day, that I specifically checked with him that i could pick it up at night and he insisted that the pickup time was set for 11am. I told him to cancel the car, and went to an airport desk to rent a car that I could take straightaway. When I called to get a refund the next day, I was told I had to go through the booking company. I called and was told I was marked a no-show, so I could not get a refund. I called the owner of Right Cars and he said he would have to do some investigating, but I have heard nothing since.
