" When I arrived to collect the car a technical problem meant they couldn't take payment on my credit card, this was the same for others too. However, after 20 minutes of messing around I convinced them to simply write down my card details and let us start our holiday. Upon returning the car I understand they had to do this with all customers for the rest of the day. Once sorted everything was fine. Although understandably the staff were a bit stressed when I picked up the car they could not have been more pleasant when I returned it. "

" We always use AE when visiting Santorini and always highly delighted. Usually cars from Goldcar. Very poor experience this time with Centauro. When i refused their own fully comp insurance (as purchased through AE) the attitude of the counter staff became very poor. We were given a key and pointed to a car with no walk around or any explanation of the car controls: loaded our cases and flight bags and tried to start the car. The key would not turn in the ignition. Went back to the office and one of the staff members came out to try it. A second lady then came out and gestured towards another car. We were clearly shown to the wrong car. Unloaded cases and bags and reloaded the correct vehicle. No apology offered for the confusion and again not shown any of the controls. Drove away to then find there was no screen wash when I tried to clean the windscreen. Upon return after 14 days rental where we did not have any accidents or bumps I was made aware of scuffs and light scratches on the rear bumper...clearly made by another car. I was charged €300 damage which I'm now claiming through the insurance taken out when booking the rental. Found the whole experience with Centauro poor on this occasion, BUT we will definitely continue to use AutoEurope for every trip. "

" Excellent value for money, new fleet of cars. The only criticism I have is that the staff push too much to take out the extra insurance when most people already have their own insurance. They try and scare people that their own insurance doesn't cover everything. Also you had to pay for petrol in advance which is unusual. But all in all a good experience and would definitely recommend this company. Always take out your own additional insurance in advance you will save 100s of euros. "

" Centauro, The car rental company that keeps on giving. Following an devious charge €360 from the Thessaloniki office, see previous post, the office made two credit card charges for the "door damage". One for €114 and one for €244. The first one was the fuel deposit which was used towards the "damage" and the second was for the remaining amount. This is has caused a problem with my accounts and with my insurance, as both need to see a single charge from € to £. Neither the local office nor the head office in Spain were willing to debit my card with and make a single charge. Adding to that the head office ensured me that there is not an issue with the double charge, dismissing legal accounting requirements that exist in both UK and Greece. Advice, if you rent from Centauro, and you have an "accident", and you have your own insurance, do not accept to use the fuel charge towards the deduction due to damage. The charge MUST be from the deposit or a completely new charge. And don't forget to take a private on a Centauro insurance!! "
" Gentauro in Thessaloniki. Avoid Review of Centauro Rent a Car Reviewed yesterday I had used Centauro Thessaloniki Car rental numerus time in the past and I could only describe their service, up to this point, very good. Up on my arrival to collect the vehicle on the 1st of January 2024 customer service tried to force sale to me a Centauro CDW insurance which would cost 2 times the cost of the rental. The customer service representative used arguments that were not applicable to the vehicle. For example, accidental damage to the alloy wheel which the vehicle did not have. Up on my return to drop of the vehicle, 2/2/2024 @ 16:30 the same customer service representative was very eager to find scratches and faults to the vehicle. He has raised damage "incident", a number of door chips found on the driver's door edge. Considering the length of the rental, 24hr, and the place where the vehicle was parked during the duration of the rental, private covered car park 50 km form the city (I have access to another vehicle and the car rental is only used for traveling to and from the airport to the place of my stay), it would be impossible to have the door damaged. The customer representative also refused to provide a detailed description of the fault in the incident report, his details and he was eager to charge me €360 for the damage. I have been renting vehicles in many countries both for pleasure and business and from many different car rental companies but I never experience such behavior that can only be described as vindictive and totally unprofessional. As a result of this extremely poor service, I will withdraw all existing rental bookings with Centauro, and I will also make sure that all future business and personal rentals will not be made with Cantauro. My advice, either get a total CDW from Centauro for the extraordinary amount of €50 euro per day or find another car rental company. There are many in the area that will be happy to have your business. "

" AE were great, but Centauro were dreadful. I used them once before a few years ago and they were fine, but they have clearly motivated their staff to do anything at all to sell these policies. Perhaps each sold policy is 100 Euro commission to whoever sells it. Whatever the case, terrible, and never again! "
" The counter staff were borderline criminal. They pushed their 300 euro insurance package very hard, and lied in the process. We were told our own excess protection insurance wasn't accepted in Greece. This is not true. When that didn't work they told us that if there was any damage they would refuse to supply us with any invoices for the excess so we would not be able to claim from our insurance company. Even the British (but fluent Greek speaker) next to us was extremely upset with how she was being treated (exactly the same pressure and lies). We did not take their package, and it had a very negative effect on our trip to begin with. I will never use these people again, and I think you need to have a serious word with them as your reputation is somewhat linked to the treatment this company dishes out. "

" One of my worst experience "
" I rented an economy small car (Fiat Panda) to do my job in the town. However, they gave me another car from the 'S' category (Nissan Juke) without any prior warning. It was night time, and there was not enough light to inspect the car that I did not want to rent. The policy of Centauro is very strict and unacceptable regarding charges. The only pleasant aspect of this unpleasant experience was the extremely polite employee. However, this is not enough to change my opinion : I do not want to rent from them again! "

" It is very obvious that auto Europe does not vet the companies they recommend. "
" The problem is the staff checking in attitude. They refused to accompany me while checking the car . They asked me to take videos and photos but they can't add any scratches or dents to their contract. It is only at check out that they can review my photos. Very intimidating attitude to take the company Inssurance policy. The delay of the staff to check out cars was obvious at our check in and check out so we decided to arrive too early to avoid any risk losing our flights but I can see other passengers very nervous and irritated. The intersting fact was that there was plenty of staff hanging around smoking and not helping in the check out. We saw them checking cars out at our arrival but were hanging around smoking and they asked our driver to do the check in cars which delayed our driver. There is a vacuum of leadership in that office of Athens airport with poor behaviour and bad customer experience. "

" Although i have been hiring car from Centauro for years, this is the worst experience I ever had. I usually collect my car after 22:30 because of my flight to Thessaloniki. The collection was the usual stuff. They gave me the contract and after a quick look aroung the car, I did not see any damaged panels to further report. The bad lighting did not help... Upon my return, I positioned the car as close to the main building as possible and under their external lights. Upon inspection, the staff told that there two scratches and asked me for photos when I collected the vehicle. I pointed out to them, that their contract notes to report to them any damage, but the two tiny scratches they were pointing out they do not classify as damage neither could be seen under the poor lighting conditions at 22:30 at night, for me to report. Nevertheless, they failed to provide themselves any kind of photographic evidence that the scratches were not there when I collected the car. It is obvious because I did not have a full insurance with them, and the car was going back to FIAT in a few weeks time,it was easy for them to blaim me for those pre-existing scratches! They charged me €900 for that! In addition, their main offices have not provided me with any documentation of the cost/charges! The worst service I have ever received! I used to be think very highly of Centauro and I took pride in returning their vehicles in the same condition I collected them, but this experience made me feel extremely dissappointed, robbed and unfairly treated, as those tiny scratches had nothing to do with me! Very sad situation indeed! I now know that their operating standards changed and that they are trying to pray on unsuspected loyal customers, hence I will be very weary in the future. Of course I am disputing those charges with my CC company and I hope that all will end well and I will have the money they stole from me back... "

When I went back to tell them this and to ask for the insurance money to be refunded, he said he couldn't reverse the transaction even though it was only done 5 minutes previously. Car was badly damaged, but this wasn't disclosed ( stupidly I didn't check before I took the car, it was late and dark). Only found that the next morning . Tried to contact Centauro the next morning by phone and by email to discuss insurance refund . No response. The whole experience was poor. I am also cross at myself at being conned. "

" On arrival the counter staff were unfriendly, abrubt, rude and generally unhelpful when we asked any questions. We got the impression they just wanted to 'process' us as soon as possible. We didn't feel the fuel policy was fair or easy to adhere to. We were asked to return the car with 90% fuel, which wasn't easy to predict, resulting in us putting more fuel in to avoid not getting our full deposit back (which was overpriced). The return of the vehicle was very rushed, communication was poor. There was no damage to the vehicle but we had no receipt given to us to prove that they accepted the condition of the vehicle at handover, and we would actually get our deposits returned fully. We had a hair raising shuttle back to Athens airport, the driver was speeding and using his mobile phone. He dumped us at arrivals, instead of departures and disappeared.

I was advised to look vehicle over, but it was a dimly lit carport and you were not actually able to get out of car and look round as too narrow therefore. I didn't take a video plus couldn't see anything anyway. On return attendant noticed a small scratch at front, I have no recollection of damaging the car and the scratch looked like the car had gone into something with a sharp edge rather than another car knocking it. I was charged 350 euro for this. In retrospect, very important to take a detailed video of interior and exterior. Reviews say that this company has done this before.

" I've used auto europe many times and it's been quite some time since I had an experience like this with any of your subbies, even in Spain, or with anyone else for that matter. However, our dealings with yourselves in making the booking were excellent as ever. "
" The rental was supposed to F to F but the car wasn't full, so they took money from my CC which is supposed be refunded within 12 days of our returning it full, which I think was much more than the value of the missing fuel. At best this is them forcing me to give them a loan they can earn interest on and at worst a scam if I fail to return it full and they then over-charge me. They were unable to provide the small car we ordered and did not seem to understand that their 'upgrade' to a huge Citroen C4X was not actually a good thing! We saw no evidence at all that they have any small cars and plenty that they have lots of big ones so they appear to selling something they don't actually have. On arrival the woman in the office was telling another customer that if they severely damage the car they would be liable for the full amount if they didn't buy their insurance, not just the E1100 excess. We felt throughout the holiday that we'd be in for a very rough time if we did actually damage the car. On our return she went straight to the damage they'd not notified us of before (she obviously knew exactly where it was) and asked if we had proof it was there before we took the car (no damage map was supplied with the key). As luck would have it we had spotted and photographed it despite it being really dark. We felt that this was almost certainly a deliberate ploy to defraud your CDW insurers. I suggest that you and your CDW insurers should do a bit of data mining and analysis to see if this rental location is a bit rogue. Overall, this hire was like a return to the bad old days of car hire and, although we came out of it reasonably well, we were not impressed and certainly won't be choosing Centauro again any time soon.

" Uncomfortable and expensive experience because of the comments above re extortionate charges at the counter. "
" Despite taking out additional insurance through auto Europe at time of booking there was great pressure to purchase more at the counter which came with fear mongering if we did not. This was unpleasant. The cost of children's booster seats was far more than auto Europe stated. We bought with the understanding it would be 40 euros, it was actually an eye watering 70 euro per seat! Similarly the cost of an additional driver was far more than stated. This was 63 euro not 40. This made the experience expensive and we felt like we had been falsely sold by auto Europe. "

Instead we had to get a taxi which stung us for 20€ for a 3km trip due to them dropping us at a car hire company! Other than that centauro were great. We stool out the extra insurance. So it didn't matter that the car already had few scrapes, which we couldn't see when we collected it as it was dark. So generally a good experience from them. "

" Car hire was booked as an 'on airport' pick up (I specifically searched for this on the website) but the car rental was a shuttle ride away. Not a big deal, but annoying as I had specifically searched for in terminal. "
" The car rental ended up costing more than double the quoted price because we were unable to pay a deposit for the (prepaid all inclusive) insurance on our credit card. Centauro do not take Amex, nor a credit card on Apple Pay, nor debit cards. This was not made clear on booking and ended up costing us more than 100% the initial booking cost on pick up. Unbelievable. The insurance was already paid for in full and was a full comprehensive, no excess insurance, so why they need to take over $1,000 holding on your card is a mystery. Then the first car we collected (was a 3 door not 5 door as requested) and had a warning light on the tyre pressure. This was replaced by a different car pretty quickly however. "

" When picking up the car, was served by a gentleman who took all my details (passport, driving license, credit card) but then he switched with a colleague who asked for it all again. When I explained that these had already been provided she told me she was starting again. I was then told they had no manual cars available, only an automatic car was available. After explaining my dissatisfaction and waiting approx 20 minutes they then miraculously found a manual car that was parked outside all the time. Approx 3 hours later whilst I was driving I was called and asked to provide the number plate on the car. I was told that until I provided this I was not insured to drive the car. I had to pull over on the motorway to provide the number. All in all I found it a very poor service. "

" Usually Auto Europe are great but in this instance our booking should not have been taken if we couldn't collect the car that night on arrival. We should have been informed of the collection times on booking. As minimum compensation we need to be reimbursed by Auto Europe or given a credit/voucher for one days free car hire as we ended up picking up the car at 11am the following day delaying our plans and hugely inconveniencing us. "
" I booked the car for 11pm collection. We came through immigration at c.11:10 pm. No one was there to meet us as per the instructions on the voucher. It said on the voucher that the Centauro office closed at 11pm but it didn't say anywhere on the voucher that after 11pm we wouldn't be able to collect the car. No one called us or emailed to tell us this. Therefore we were left high and dry at the airport not knowing what to do. Eventually after 1.5hrs of waiting and looking for the Centauro shuttle bus driver we took a bus to Athens to our hotel. We then had to return to their office the next day to collect the car, spending Euro 45 on a taxi. No one apologised to us for this lack of communication and made it feel like it was our fault for not knowing their office closed at 11pm.

" We also chatted to Auto Europe on the issue above, you were unable to reach the rental car company, though we were. So as a broker you didnt really help us out. "
" Our flight was delayed. We did call the car rental company and they agreed to wait. They also stipulated that there was a late fee which we agreed to pay. However on arrival, they had closed the office and were not waiting as agreed. This is simply unacceptable and cost us an additional 50 euro on taxis, not to mention wasted time. I will never use this car rental company again. "

" Next time I will book a car rental through the car rental company as there are certain problems with booking through an agency. "
" AutoEurope is an agency and I did not book through Centrauro. Problems with extra insurance, which I thought I'd already paid for in the UK. I wanted to book the extra driver, my wife, for just two weeks instead of the three weeks of the car rental as the car was parked in Khora Sfakion for a week whilst we were in Loutro. No that was impossible. My wife drove the car for just one day throughout the three weeks car rental. Almost £100 extra just for the one day that my wife drove. Expensive indeed. "
