awful

We were happy with our hire car but did feel surprised to find out about the £1500 deposit payment which although was on the fine print did still come as a surprise.

ACE was dire. The pick up took over an hour. After a flight with a 6 month baby and a 5 year old, this was far too long to wait to get to the desk to be served. English was poor, and it was a battle to convince them of the insurance I had already paid for with AXA via Easyrent. They even tried to con us out of 20 Euros for petrol to fill up saying the nearest petrol station was over 30km away from the airport. I had been to the airport several times and the petrol station that was 5km away has always sufficed.

Getting the car seemed to take forever and with 3 small hungry children it was a added stress.there was some some hidden charges and fined if you didn’t bring the car back with a full tank or committed an offence that weren’t stipulated before the hire.

Booking was easy.

No issues with the car however despite already requesting on two occassions I'm still awaiting a copy of my return paperwork and deposit. I took the opportunity to inspect the car thoroughly along with the car hire company representative present and it was confirmed that no damage was observed. The paperwork was completed on an ipad at 20:30hrs on Sunday 2nd June and I signed and confirmed my email. I was then notified by the attendant I would receive a copy confirming the car had been returned in an acceptable condition. Disappointingly I have yet to receive a copy of the signed paperwork. The attendant also informed me it would take 7 days to return the deposit to my credit card. I emailed Easyrent and they have sent an emil to the car hire company but I'm still waiting.

The insurance options and fuel refill terms were complex. When I booked I didn't realise a diesel rental car has a tax in France
