Enjoyable

Upon arrival at the rental location, they insisted on mandatory insurance fees. Since we were already there, we had no choice but to comply.

ERSIRENT at London Heathrow Airport (KV) took advantage of the language barrier. Despite repeatedly showing the printed statement from the rental service about not needing additional insurance, and stating in English 'I have all cover, no need other cover!', the staff didn't mention the £1250 deposit option. When I repeatedly confirmed if the three charges were all deposits, I got a confirmed response that 'ALL will come back to me.' However, when I returned the car, the staff said this was a charge and wouldn’t be refunded. They maliciously upsold the insurance. Essentially, I rented a car and ended up with two full insurance policies, costing me significantly more than usual. This has caused me substantial financial and mental distress. Customer service is handling it, and I hope for a good outcome.

Arrived at the store at 9:30 PM. The first floor was empty, and I only found an A4 paper directing me to the second floor after looking around. The process took about 15 minutes; the guy was wearing headphones, so he was slow. The store is entirely staffed by Indians, who are not very efficient. Returned the car at 5 PM. The whole process took 50 minutes because all the staff were busy. Unlike big companies like Hertz, they took a long time to check the car.

The car model availability was random. I wanted to rent a Ford Focus but it was always unavailable. There were very few automatic cars. I ended up with a Korean car, a SsangYong. The first one had a side door that couldn't be opened from the inside. The second one was an old, beat-up piece of junk. Finally, I got another SsangYong which was just okay.

Absolute cheats..had a full insurance bought while booking..still charged 180 pounds without informing me..later said that I shud have read all the terms b4 signing...strangely enough the receipt does not show the amount anywhere..just a tick where it says need full insurance..
