They could try to not fraud with vehicle damages. They tried to incriminate me a scratch on the side of the car. Thank god I took pictures of it. However, I did not photo under the vehicle. So they then tried to incriminate that as well. But since that damage was below the scratch they did not "have in their database" - they could not prove I did it. Also being stuck to pickup time without being able to select it - sucks. I work. How am I supposed to pick the car up and return it at 12 PM?

It was not clear instructions about the insurance policy and I havve to buy the insurance at the counter and when you compare with the benefits and value it was expensive hence basic coverage…also I still didn’t get the refund yet. Even I sit didn’t get drop off confirmations email however they said you will get email notification about the drop off in the next 5-10 minibus still didn’t get yet!!! I dropped off the rental car 9/9/2023 around 8:40pm (before the drop off time)x

They tried to add some extra fees because I was planning to take a ferry to an island so I ended up leaving a car parked before the ferry crossing (which actually worked fine for me)

fees and required insurance (although my booking said I had insurance).. made my original reservation 3x more expensive
We loved our car and the service at the rental agency was fantastic. Our only challenge is that we did not have a way to call the agency for our initial pick up because we are international travelers.

Worst rental company I used in 35 years of travelling. They will charge you up front $1,000+ deposit and refuse to release it. There are so many descent rental companies, do not use that company.

When calling the Green Motion to get a ride from the airport nobody was picking up the phone so I called Athens downtown office which called them. There is a mislead they said wait for a driver in a green shirt to come in to the airport and he never did. Instead it was the car rent rep by the location specified with a green scarf. To get to the car rent this and that overall took 2hrs. When returning the car I mentioned my GPS didn't take me to the correct address so I spent 1hr to get to the Green Motion thus my flight was slightly over an hour and I asked 3 times to take me to the airport. The response was each time to wait 3-5 mins for the van resulted the van arrived in 15min + 5 mins load + 10 mins ride so I got to the airport when the check-in to my flight closed 15 mins ago I was lucky they checked my luggage at the boarding. With this experience I am very unhappy with the service.

Pickup at airport took forever. When we dropped car off it was chaotic at the counter. The car was almost empty when we got it. It had issues when we started it. Weird noises. Not a great experience.

This was a scam. Once i reserved the car they changed the type (i reserved a minivan and few days before pickup they informed me that i will be picking up a small SUV). When i argued about their change they said that they never had such minivan and that this must have been a mistake on the website. Fortunately i was able to get all of my money back. Don't rent with them to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Tires and windshield wiper need to be paid attention

I booked a Renault Kangoo minivan for 4 passengers and 4 suitcases via Kayak. When i called them, Thrifty told me that they have received in their instruction a “small automatic car”. I cannot figure out if Kayak messed up or Thrifty. But i ultimately had to pay up 30% more for a small minivan (Opel Zafira) from Thrifty with 130k miles and underpowered. I am NEvER going to rent cars thru’ Kayak again. They also told me that they do NOT even rent out Renault Kangoo, so they have no idea why Kayak will show that car to me online available to book. Either somebody is lying or something is seriously wrong in the tech interface between Kayak and Thrifty
Always a rip off, I forget every few years then do it again and get fleeced. Why can’t the cost I pay for car hire be the final cost ever? €10 cleaning fee on drop off? Really? Surely that’s part of the service… it’s like renting a hotel room then having to pay the cleaners after… stupid! You’ve definitely factored in cleaning to your price already but then sting customers for it again. Excess of over £800… ridiculous. Forces customers to buy insurance, and boom another £50 gone. no information given about pick up of car at airport, no signs no nothing, just a van outside with a small Europcar label on it, rubbish! All on all it would probably work out cheaper for me to get a private driver to take me around for my entire trip than do this again, shameful and nothing ever changes!

Good overall.The car was very old, so it was very expensive for the service that we received…With 50 euros/day +35 euros fee to go to the port we definitely deserved a new clean car

It would be helpful if it was more clear on the website that the person in whose name the reservation is made will automatically be assigned as the primary driver for the vehicle and this information could not be changed at the time of pick up for the vehicle. We ended up having to cancel and rebook our reservation at the time of car pick up in order to have my partner as the driver.

The europcar office in Sarajevo are crocks. I rented an 8 seater car. While driving on the highway some thing on the road hit the car and broke a hose or something, that cause the engine to overheat. The Europecar staff in Sarajevo airport ended up charging me almost 800 euros even though I had medium insurance protection. As they claim the my coverage does not cover damages underneath the care. In any case, I regret renting from Europcar.

Staff was very helpful and friendly. Car was brought to our hotel.
This is my third time in North Macedonia that I am renting with Hertz. I’ve never experienced the worst service, first of all the prize that I booked online I have to pay almost double for what I saw in the website. The mileage is supposed to be unlimited, they told me it’s limited to 100 kilometers per day and the worst of all of this was the parking card wasn’t working, so there was no way I could open the ramp to leave the car in the rental parking so I left the car on the bus taxi drive. I went three times back into the airport to pay for the parking and I couldn’t do it. After I left the car in the bus taxi driveway, I had to run for check-in they had paged me five times so I almost lost the plane because of that parking card that wasn’t working! So very bad experience with them, from the prize that I booked online that it didn’t match I paid double, to the parking cart that wasn’t working.I will never recommend to anyone to rent Hertz specially in North Macedonia very very disappointed..

I didn't get the car I booked, because THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT. no alerts, emails, or calls about them missing it, so I was left on the street with my luggage in the middle of the night with an Airbnb booked in another city. next time maybe count your cars before letting people book non-existing ones.
