Après un appel téléphonique, toujours pas de facture alors que des frais de 80 dollars ont été retirés. Après appel, ces frais sont dus à une restitution tardive lié à une tempête sur kangaroo island. Nous avons prévenu et on nous a dit qu'il n'y avait pas de souci , qu'is avaient l'habitude de ce type de situation. En finalité j'apprends en regardant mon compte qu'une journée supplémentaire a été facturée....

Thrifty provided great service. The staff at the branch were enthusiastic, and after checking my driver's license and translation, the process was quick. After paying the rental fee and a 385 AUD pre-authorization on my credit card, I received the car keys. When inspecting the car, the staff noted some small scratches, which I appreciated. During the return process, the staff instructed me to drop the keys in a box without an immediate inspection, which made me a bit anxious. I took photos of the fuel gauge and the car's exterior, but there were no problems. Thrifty later confirmed via email that there were no damages. Overall, I was very satisfied with the services from both QEEQ and Thrifty, and I hope other travelers can have the same experience.

The promised GLE was replaced with a GLC, and they claimed both cars are in the same class. But in reality, the price difference is huge. Strongly recommend not to trust this car rental company. (There was no option for a GLC among the available models, so I chose a Mercedes-Benz C-Class wagon)

Waited for an hour and a half to get the car! They explained that it was due to the Chinese New Year, so there were more people, but the problem was that there were hardly any Chinese people in line, mostly foreigners. I booked a mid-size SUV, Mitsubishi Outlander, but ended up getting a Camry. Didn't want to wait any longer, so I took the Camry. Overall, I felt the efficiency was a bit low.

It was okay, but this company charged the deposit directly instead of holding it, and refunded it after the return. I lost some money due to exchange rate fluctuations, which felt unfair. Other than that, everything else was fine.

There is no Chinese service. Possibly due to the high demand for rentals during the New Year, the attitude of a few foreigners was terrible; they showed no expression and were very impatient when explaining issues. The car model I booked was unavailable, and I was given a very small car with a take-it-or-leave-it attitude.

Arrived at the store around 3 PM but didn't get the car until after 5 PM. The tiny store was in complete chaos. Despite having prepaid for the rental well in advance, there was no car available. After several phone calls, they finally found a car that had just been returned, but it needed to be cleaned first... I wasn't the only one; a group of people were all waiting for the staff to find cars on the spot, standing in the parking lot waiting for the staff to clean each car and drive them over from another location. An old man with an Australian accent kept saying: 'I've been to countless places and never seen such terrible service....'

Arrived at the return location at 5:57 PM and there was no one there. Had to lift the parking barrier myself. Called them but no one answered. Fortunately, another renter told us to leave the keys in the drop box.

The service was terrible. When I arrived, there was no one there. After waiting for more than half an hour, someone finally showed up. Even then, nobody attended to me immediately. When they did, they were indifferent.

Our English is limited, but the car rental staff were friendly and explained everything patiently. There were five staff members handling orders, so the process was quick and the wait time was short.

Overbooked! Waited an hour but no car! Terrible company. Charged extra fees! Claimed late return without any delay. Directly deducted fees! Found out after checking my credit card!

The lady at the rental counter was very friendly and talkative. Later interactions with other staff, including during the return process, went smoothly without much waiting. Thumbs up!

When picking up the car, we were told that our selected model was not available. We had to wait for a Chinese-speaking guide to communicate with us, and they suggested a refund if the car was not available. Eventually, we got the car we selected.

Getting a downgrade was a bit uncomfortable, but everything else was fine. The insurance I bought, which was one level higher than the basic one, had a 500 excess fee that was quite useful.

I was supposed to pick up the Benz GLE at 11:00, but it was not available until 18:00. Fortunately, the store arranged a Mitsubishi for me to use in the city, but it did delay my schedule a bit. I hope this can be improved. During this period, I contacted the rental service, but they couldn't resolve it either.

They blamed me for past car damage. When I rented the car, I pointed out the scratches, and the staff told me minor scratches didn't matter. In the end, they charged me 3300 AUD when I returned the car home. This company is a scam. I will never rent from them again. Their integrity is terrible.
