The car was a bit of a up grade which was unexpected but good. Staff were courteous and help full. Still waiting on my deposit return but I am sure it will come as vehicle returned in same condition as picked up and tolls or traffic infringements

Booking was easy and straight forward

This company lacks integrity and engages in fraudulent practices. They initially attract customers with low prices, then impose additional charges through various means to gain undue profits.

The originally booked SUV was not available and was downgraded. When we got the keys and entered the car, the safety lock was broken, which was unsafe especially for children. We switched to a second car, only to find the air conditioning blew out hot air. After much hassle, we switched to a third downgraded car, wasting nearly 2 hours (from the original 1 PM to nearly 3 PM). In a hurry, we took the third downgraded car, but soon discovered it had no GPS and not even a USB port. During our 4-day Melbourne trip, we had to navigate with 3 phones taking turns. We couldn’t listen to music or take photos to save battery for navigation. Charging phones became our top priority every night at the hotel, or we couldn’t use the phones for navigation the next day. In desperation, we bought a car USB port, which didn’t work in the car but worked fine in a friend’s car, proving the car port was broken. Terrible service!!!

The car rental company charged 50 AUD for cleaning a child seat, which is highly unreasonable! When returning the car, I checked the vehicle thoroughly inside and out with the staff, and they said everything was fine and asked me to sign. Before leaving, I confirmed again with the staff that the car had been inspected and there would be no charges to my credit card, except for the highway tolls as those could not be billed immediately. However, after I returned to China, the car rental company sent a photo of the child seat, claiming it was dirty and demanding 50 AUD for cleaning. This is completely unreasonable! Why wasn't it mentioned on the spot when both parties were present? We knew beforehand that there would be charges if the seat was dirty, so we were very careful while using it and checked thoroughly before returning the car. There was no dirt at all, and the staff had also confirmed this. Now, after returning to China, they send a photo claiming it was dirty and demanding payment. This is very frustrating! Firstly, I checked and confirmed the seat was not dirty when returning the car; secondly, the staff also said everything was fine; thirdly, a photo alone is not convincing; and lastly, any issues should be addressed on the spot when both parties are present—claims made afterwards are not acceptable.

Exterior of the car not in good condition. All scratches were noted but there was a lot of abuse to the vehicle despite being only 55k in the clock. I have extended the same car for another month directly for a slightly higher fee but with a 2nd driver included. EasyRentCars will be my go to choice from now on.

All was good
