Reluctant to use company again as they appeared dishonest and untrustworthy

The wait to pick up the car was rediculously long, especially in a warm airport with 2 young children. Counter staff were quite rude and once we realised car was far too small, we weren't able to upgrade. Wait for return was also quite lengthy.

Booking was smooth and easy to include all waivers.

Don’t know as couldn’t get one unless I paid 5 times the on-line price

j'ai loué la voiture chez ACE,comment savoir que Global car se substitue à ACE sauf par un petit panneau derrière le comptoir?Beaucoup d'attente au comptoir car le personnel tente de vous imposer une assurance à plus de 100€ malgré l'assurance souscrite lors de la réservation et devient très désagréable lorsqu'on lui oppose un refus:plus de 30' d'attente et une sérieuse prise de bec avec l'employé. Aéroport de BOD en travaux,guichets de location mal indiqués...Heureusement le personnel pour la livraison et la restitution du véhicule était très sympathique et opérationnel malgré l'affluence.

Correct.

We arrived on time to pick up our rental car only to be met by a sea of people waiting to collect their cars . Firstly, there were only 4 staff working and they each took around 20mîns if not more to serve each customer! No sense of trying to speed up to help with the ever growing queues! Once we had waited for 2 hours and 20 mins (!!!) we finally had our number called . We were then met by an incredibly slow, unapologetic and borderline agressive member of staff. When we asked for an explanation for the long wait and utter chaos, we were given no apology ( as the representative of ACE should have done in basic customer service ) and just an aggressive and rude attitude whilst we tried to collect our car. In the many years of travel and use of car hire companies at Bordeaux Meringnac airport I have never been treated so incredibly badly nor had to wait so long with no apology or basic customer service. I will never use this company again and will be sure to pass the word on amoung my contact , friends , family and anyone else who I know is looking for car rental .

The car worked fine but was very heavily damaged (large dents and almost every panel was scratched or gouged) and only a 1.4 petrol so a bit under powered for a car the size I had requested.

Fine.
