Book Sixt car hires in Istanbul

Pros: Staff was helpful. Not pushy/ aggressive.

Cons: Car was a bit old and worn out with multiple scratches, etc. Though the staff marked all these out assiduously. Deposit taken has still not been returned 6-7 days after return of the car, usually done in 2-3 days.

They don't accept American / foreigner credit card

Cons: I rented through kayak.com , and paid in full when I reserved it, When I got there to pick up they asked for credit card to get deposit (they call it provision) I said okey, they tried many times and it doesn't work, than they told me that they only accept Turkish credit card, I tried to give them cash as deposit but since I am through kayak they did not accept cash. Funny fact, they suggest me go to other agency which was even cheaper and got me better car. They had no problem using my credit card and paid provision with cash. I haven't got my money back from sixt and I got insurance from Allianz still no return yet.

Pros: nothing

Cons: everything
