I bought insurance through Kayak. When I picked up the car the SixT agent said we have to put a €1500 hold on your card in case of damage. I never heard of that before. I took the car and after 5 days returned it in the same condition I received it. The SixT agent said all was good and I expected the €1500 hold to be reversed. It’s been more than 24 hours but the hold is still on. Be careful when renting from SixT.

The experience, unfortunately, was only 2 out of 5. I had entered and uploaded all information including license scan and credit card prior to arrival, but was asked to provide everything again and also to enter physical card and PIN (which I did not have). Apple Pay was not possible, nor was swipe and sign. I ended up paying online with my card. The car we received was absolutely filthy on the outside and I was expected to identify scratches, which was impossible. The car was an embarrassment to drive in the state it was in, until the first good rain washed off the worst of it. I asked to put my Miles & More number on to the system, but the lady did not know how to do this or did not want to. Her overall attitude was less than pleasant anyway.
