" Keddy is in a partnership with Europcar. There is no signage in the Paris airport for Keddy. It took us asking several employees in the airport, making several phone calls to Auto Europe UK, and me googling Keddy to discover that we were actually looking for Europcar. This took about 2 hours. When we got to the counter the employee there said our contract showed our pickup time as 10:00 AM. This is ridiculous because our flight was not even scheduled to land until 3:00 P.M. My flight number was on the contract. I was told that our reserved car had been rented, so I would only have a choice of the few vehicles they had left. Of course the car we ended up with cost over 200 euros more than the one we requested. I had little choice by that time of the day so I took the car. The car I requested was an Altama. The car I got was decent, but certainly not better than an Altima and not worth paying more for. I don't know if it was a glitch or an accident that my rental time was set so early in the morning. This is not something I would do. So is this an accident or a scam to get more from the customer. I don't know the answer, but it is something that is in the back of my mind. So the start of our vacation was miserable and it was due to the pickup of our rental car. Did I mention it was an unseasonably hot day in Paris? There is your answer. I am considering posting this on Trip Advisor as well. "

On return of the vehicle, there was a single staff member in charge of all returns and we had to wait for about 15 to 20 minutes which added quite a bit of stress to the journey as we had a flight to catch.

However, once I have got the check in done and walked to the car park, the staff in the car park said the car needed cleaning. After another 20 mins wait, when I got in the car the cat actually has little fuel left only while it stated 8/8 (full) on the contract. The car park staff doesn't speak English and asked me to go back to the office. Then I first speak to the gentlemen there and he just said his colleague would go to get fuel. I mentioned I'm in rush since I have spent a lot of time there. He then said everyone is waiting. It is not fair to a customer when this is clearly an error from the company. Anyway it finally took me 1h30m to get a rental car from the rental office. I think this time frame and the attitude of the staff is not acceptable. "

Told it would be an automatic and would be brought from the garage, probably take 25-30 mins. 1 1/4hrs later the car finally arrived. It was clean, but not sparkling, and tank was not completely full. Was given keys and told where to find the car. No paperwork to show scratches or scrapes. Not impressed!

My major criticism is that AE has any dealings at all with Hertz or its satellite companies - they do you a gross miss-service and you should advise clients t o avoid them at all costs "
" Having had an appalling experience with Hertz on a previous occasion I was horrified to discover that Thrifty came under the Hertz umbrella. I was on a one day business visit to France and to lose two hours through totally inefficient processing at the counter - between 2 and 3 times longer than any of the other car hire companies was very inconvenient. The car irself was a bit scruffy with scratches of the paintwork which were not immediately apparent on the documantation and a fuel tank the was only 3/4 full - not shown on the outgoing documentation which suggested that it was full. I await the refunding of my deposit in expectation that it will be incorrect. Fortunately I took photos to confirm the above "

" Despite providing flight details had to wait 15 minutes for the vehicle. The counter wasn't busy. The vehicle ended up being a battered Renault traffic which really isn't similar to a Mercedes V-Class. The car was in a dangerous state. Bits of it fell off and dragged under the car. Hi-Vis vests for all potential 9 passengers were not provided. The refuelling charges upon return were beyond extortionate. It's pretty impossible to find diesel for EUR 3.75 a litre and there's no way exactly 60 litres of it went into the tank. The fine processing charge of EUR 45 is 50% more than SIXT charge where you do actually get the car you booked. "

" Very diss appointed. "
" Very disappointed, several issues. The car I reserved and paid for was unavailable and I was offered another but the desk wanted another 150 euros which I declined as this was not my fault. Consequently the car I was given was a lower group( mini fiat 500) than what I had paid for and totally unsuitable for my long journey.Also I previously paid the additional premium for full excess insurance but the desk person refused to accept as he said we only .had basic cover. Not true. again I was asked for extra payments. Lastly again I was also asked for more additional payment if I used my wife' s credit card. Terrible service from a company I have previously used with no problem before. Incidentally I have contacted autoeurope customer service regarding this and am awaiting a reply. "

I'm renting cars a lot, in many different continents and countries but I've never had such a discouraging experience. I knew I wanted to extend after two days (which is three days before the end of the rental) and called the office tens of times during the rest of my rental but they didn't answer. I called their France office and other branches but everybody told me the only branch that can extend the one I took the car from. I had to drive 5 hours to the branch in order to extend my rental in two days. And then drive back 4 hours. Such a waste of energy, money and stress.

" All was well until I returned the vehicle. There was a quick check and I was told by your agent that there had been some damage sustained at the rear under the bumper. I was not aware of this and am confident that I did not sustain this damage given I had only driven 45km to a private garage. I was shown the damage and asked if I had taken out cover. I said I did not. I took a look and can see a minor scratch but was difficult to see. I repeated that I did not damage the car and could not have seen the damage upon collection because it was dark. I asked to see a pre-collection photo and was advised there was only a check with no photo. I asked how I could challenge this as I was informed I would be charged €118 for damage I did not create. The agent went to speak to his manager and was gone for about 5 minutes. I was close to leaving as my flight was due in under an hour. The agent intimated to me that all was well and I did not owe anything. I asked why and he said that the damage was reported on 1 February before I collected it but the file had been deleted. I was made to feel guilty before anyone checked the previous damage report and it felt he was only interested in taken my money. This was the first bad experience I have had renting a vehicle from any company and I am far from impressed by your company's system of checks and left with a feeling that I was being ripped off for someone else's damage. In fact the speed in which your agent found the damage was the only impressive part of the experience, making me feel that it was planned or some kind of ruse to make people take out damage waiver cover next time they rent. Not what I expect from a global company and I will not be renting with you again. "

I am sure that it was not me because during my trip a did not approach any curb. After a long argument border line aggressive nothing was resolved and they took the money from my credit card. Proper Scam. Do not go to Hertz in CDG there is plenty of other professionals at Paris Airport "

By this time I had already found the sign, conveniently placed at the end of the window at the side of the Interrent office, as opposed to next to the sign on one of the front doors, where the sign saying the office was closed was correctly placed. Of course, I returnrd the keys after 22.00, and don't have a clue about what I'm being charged, since I haven't had any communication from Intrerrent, despite the fact that more than three days have elapsed since I returned their car.

If we purchased the company's own extortionate insurance then we wouldn't need to leave €2000 deposit ,even tho we have our own annual excess insurance the counter staff were not interested in this and refused to even look at it .

" It was disappointing that we had to pay a surcharge of E.51 to refuel the car. We dropped the car off after searching for about 40 minutes for a petrol station (only finding one that served lorries only). Your staff explained that there is no petrol station at CdG unless you arrive from Paris direction. As a refuel is inevitable it is considered unfair that we were not advised from the start of the journey how to refuel on the way back. My colleague left an iPad in the car only to find the next day when he returned that although the car had not been cleaned the iPad had been removed. It has not been returned to him. We were very impressed with your staff who stayed very late (well past mid-night) to issue the car to us after our flight had been delayed 9 hours. Finding the way to the return depot was a stressful nightmare. The sheet of photos was helpful. A sat-nave postcode would also have helped. The car was clean, tidy and all that we had expected. "

I would recommend better explanation of where to go with reservations - the paperwork stated 'Desk in Terminal 2D' but there is no desk there, we looked and asked. It seems the desk is the rental pick up / drop off office between 2D and (I think) 2C - this should be much clearer as all other companies have a desk in the tunnel connection but not Interrent, so we checked in 2D as stated on the paperwork It's not that clear.

They found a vehicle with Dollar and told me I have to wait few minutes to half an hour but Dollar made me wait 3 hours and they said this is the waiting time agreed with Auto Europe. After 3 hours Dollar charges me 160.97€ whereas the agreed price with Auto Europe was £76.16. I have shown them the voucher but they told me this commitment is with Auto Europe not with Dollar. I called Auto Europe but nobody answered the phone. Obviously at 9pm after about 4 hours of struggle I had no choice and I accepted their offer. I am very disappointed with Auto Europe as they did not respect the contract we agreed, I consider the over cost I have paid must be refunded by Auto Europe. Not only the first car booked was not reliable but nor was the second one and on top of that the cost was about twice the agreed amount. "

" Always use auto Europe for years and can't complain. Satisfied always been. "
" Second time I rent a car with them. The staff were very nice and very helpful. Can't complain about that. The improvement would be to have more cleaned child seat (very dirty) by experience all rental companies have the same issue when it comes to cleanness of car seats. And easy to install. They should all be with isofix attached. "

" Auto Europe is great. Again I managed to find great price at the exact location in the last moment. Used before and will use in the future - definitely! "
" Overall I'm satisfied with this rental. I received a small upgrade which was very nice. The vehicle was only vaguely cleaned as it was a little dirty on the outside and not so cleaned on the inside. It was hard to spot any vehicle damages this way. The address given to me to put in the GPS for drop-off was not exactly right which lead to confusion due to the location of the rental parking - confusing, densely built location in Paris. Using plain Google maps and putting the name of parking did the job pretty well, which was what I was going to do if I didn't have the special drop-off "instructions". "

" easy and only negative the chasing the return of deposit which should be confirmed by email automatically "
" Very rushed hand over with the car not being fully cleaned or filled with petrol. Hard to find the location as signage was bad. once you know it is to the right as you get off the Eurostar, it is very easy to find. Waiting for confirmation of return of deposit -- The car was nice to drive and although not pristine due to rush was clean enough "

" Very easy. Very efficient. Good price. Information provided good but missed out on location of the hire office at Gare du Nord Paris. "
" Car wasn't ready at pick up and still a bit dirty after a quick jet wash when handed over. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would have been helpful if the operation of the electronic handbrake had been explained before we set off. And if the return location was pre-programmed into the sat nav system. "

" Took ages to get the car. Then the office was closed "
" I would like someone to call me considering we were told several times that the office in Strasbourg would be open until 7pm - when we got there at 6pm it was closed. I need to make a complaint. "

" Easy website to use. Good value. I usually use Auto Europe when renting overseas. "
" Very slow check-in, although representive friendly enough. Clearly not enough staff. Car not particularly clean, with a few scratches and dents (which I photographed as a precaution), yet I effectively had to pay an extra 7 euros in advance to cover car cleaning charges on return, or risk paying 14 on return. Return was very quick, and hopefully no extra charges for superfluous 'scratches' etc. "

" Booking online was easy. Problem is with interrent "
" Very slow service to collect. Even slower to drop off. Office should have been open at 8am and the staff member did not arrive until 8.15. He viewed and signed for the car but we have now been charged for an unknown item and have had no explanation "

" Auto Europe is a good tool to book car hire. "
" Charged us 950 Euros for a scratch that magically appeared while the employee was inspecting the car. The scratch was not there 10 minutes before at the petrol station. Apparently a common scam which I have no grounds to claim against. "

" Overall good but I'd like a cleaner car next time. "
" The collection and checkout procedure was very quick but would not consider it as particularly friendly - quite cursory. The car was not in great condition - it was very dirty and the windscreen was filthy and the car smelt badly inside. It had not been properly valeted. When I tried to clean the windscreen there was no washer fluid and we had to stop on the motorway to put some in so we could clear the screen. On returning the signage for car rental is not great and we struggled to find a nearby garage to top up the fuel - don't know what they're charging us for that yet. Thoroughly recommend the zero excess as that seems to make the process much easier! "

" Car in a bit of a state. Dents on both side doors and a number on the bonnet. "
" Good price and good size car for range. "
" Easy check in car was ready straigt away even switched on with air con on so cabin was comfortable. Also no charge for the booster seat which was unexpected. Very happy with service and the girls in the Paris office were smiley and friendly. "
" it will be better if they give their cars with full tank "
" The staff I dealt with at the Gare du Nord were great. We received a free upgrade, which was a very nice surprise. However, the car we got was filthy on the outside and very scruffy on the inside. I did not expect that. "
" Good except it would be better if the insurance excess protection was included in the original quote. "
" Excelent personal service at pick up and very good at drop iff "
" We prebooked car to be collected 10am, got there 9.45am but managed to get our car just before 11am and it was just 4 people before us, very slow sevice which delayed our journey.... "
" Personal service, good car, pleasant personnel that spoke good English. "
" Asked for passport but small print when booking did not state this. Also car pick up wasn't at station as booked or expected but nearby this caused a bit of confusion. When finally getting there I was told the car available was electric (not what I had booked) so as this could not do the mileage I required I had to wait for another car. However, the car I was loaned was brand new and in immaculate condition. "
" Excellent prices and easy to use "
" Helpful attendant "
" had to extend hire period due to unforeseen circumstances and tried to report in case car reported "stolen". Info provided by Auto Europe was comprehensive and gave all necessary phone numbers. Citer/Enterprise desk said they couldn't help as booked with agent and to ring them. Rang Auto Europe and spoke to Ray who, having no rate to extend referred me back to Citer/Enterprise who this time made some note. Surely this isn't first time this situation has occurred? Left customer feeling frustrated Great little survey. "
" See above. Girl clearly did nothing as return cabin had to start all over again with explanation. Worked out fine in the end. "
" the entire rental process, customer service and rental vehicle could not have been better! a thoroughly pleasing experience start to finish. thank you! "
" couldn't have been any better. professional yet friendly customer service from start to finish...and the car was everything and more. thanks for providing such an enjoyable, hassle-free experience! "
" Best of the best!!! "
" Best of the best!!! "
" It was very easy working and liaising with AutoEurope prior to my journey. When I needed to change the logistics of the journey the US call centre was great. "
" CITER were great. Their manager was very helpful, though the cost of a one-way hire was excessive. "
" Was happy with price and ease of booking "
" The car and service were fine, but the office was really hard to find and I didn't get away until an hour after landing. Might be helpful if firefly desk location is explained as being in the red car park zone at terminal 1. "
" Great service, many thanks. "
" Excellent, tres bien :) "
" Reservation was fine and easy. "
" Firefly generally good - and good value. But this time the car was not full on pick-up, as stated: only about 9/10 full. Otherwise, good. "
" Sometimes the address details of the pick-up locations could be better, a small printable map showing the location like you get on some hotel sites would be useful, e.g. Citer in this case is not near Gare SNCF 11, which is actually a train platform that can only accessed with a relevant train ticket. The office is on a cross walk one floor above the platforms and is really part of the main carpark at the stattion. "
" The staff were Ok, but the car was quite battered, with only 2 panels without damage. It is always extra hassel at collection and drop off when the car has a lot od superficial damage. "
" the service was great but I had difficulties locating the parking at Gare due Nord cos I was new to Paris. Maybe a member of staff should be visible at the entrance of the car park to to assist people that don't understand French. "
" Excellent - clear instructions, easy to book. "
" Very busy at CDG airport. Had to wait 1/2 hour for car, but were given free coffee/pastries by friendly lady at reception desk. Car had not been officially cleaned (dusty, etc, (we found a few coins in footwells!)) - not a problem as was left clean by previous hirers. Happy with service, given the circumstances; will use Citer and Auto Europe again. "
" Make it clear when booking that you will require a credit card when collecting the car. "
" A little difficult to find initially as they are not advertised on the boards. Make it clear to look for Hertz car hire. "
" Easy system. Works well. "
" Check in was at terminal 2 yet th car was at terminal 1. So it took 20 mins to get the car to us which was a bit irritating considering our email said either terminal would be fine. However staff were helpful and informed us of this and they sorted it out. The car was nice and worked flawlessly. Dropping off was very easy but there was no check of the car by staff so they could say there are dents/scratches and charge me. I'll keep an eye on my credit card. Great service, happy with the result. "
" Good service. "
" National could have kept the car tidy before handing over to the customer. We have spent our valuable time on letting National know about the actual fuel level and also scratches they haven' t marked in their report. They can show a bit more professional approach. But staff were quite friendly and the car was good. "
" Good booking site with great range of companies and products. Clear instructions throughout the process and very useful to know before booking which company you will be dealing with. Will definitely book through Auto Europe again. "
" Very helpful Citer employees who even gave me an upgrade! "
" We booked our voucher on the phone and the man who took our booking was fairly unpleasant over the phone. "
" We were happy with the car and the person who gave us our car was very friendly. However when we had to return the car we couldn't find the place because the office had moved and it was very badly indicated. We were not made aware of the new address and this made us loose a lot of time. "
" We thought we were getting MB vans manual but ended up with one manual and one auto Fiat and VW! The auto was expensive to run and that is why we ordered manual. "
" impossible signage at CDG - had to ask three times where their desk was - then exit from their lot badly signed. "
" Always get the best deals from them "
" I asked for an Audi A3, but got a Ford Focus "
" It was easy and smooth which makes for stress free travelling. Would definitely book through Auto Europe again. "
" Easy and smooth process. Very happy! "
" great would definately use again "
