They cancelled my 9 passenger vehicle because I changed to pickup time by one hour. They kept stringing me along until I had to find another rental company and then they charged me a cancellation fee. Terrible customer service

After driving the car for a day, we realized that it was someone else’s name on the reservation form. Because there is no 800 number to call in the UK, we were charged for a 2 hr long phone call where we were told we’d be comped for the day we spent on the phone trying to get it sorted out. We were never comped the day, and were just stuck with the phone bill. On top of that, I discovered that we were being charged for insurance that I didn’t want because we had our own insurance. Budget rental for sure, but comes at a higher cost.

Hi, I’m somewhat fed up with searching prices via the website and realising time and time again that the headline price has no relevance to the final price charged. Extra charges such as additional drivers, airport pick up surcharges were never mentioned either on the website or at the europcar desk . Additional charges appeared on my credit card several days after dropping the car that were not verbalised or highlighted prior to rental - seems somewhat unfair! Surely this should be more regulated!? The car itself was fine , although didn’t appreciate multiple attempts by the desk sales to upgrade the vehicle at the pick up point , feels like a lot of effort goes into up selling.
