Avis did not accept the booking as the rates advertised were for a private corporate only. I am not sure why these rates should be visible on an open public website. In the end I ended up losing my booking and had to make alternative arrangements at a much higher cost.

Pick up in Kloten was quick and easy. I never like trying to be tricked into upcharging the price of my vehicle with add-ons such as extra insurance toll passes and such. These can double the price of your rental and your charge card covers you for the extra insurance. Having said that, we were charged over $550 for a scrape mark on the rear tire. Yes, a scrape mark. No damage to the rim and the tire was fine. We were only informed of this after we returned home. Unfortunately Avis, like almost all rental car companies are always out to "get you" with extra charges.

It appeared that the location is closed and they don’t rent cars to people (only for companies). So my experience was the worst. I’ve made some bookings for hotels as well, and lost money, because I couldn’t go where I wanted. I didn’t manage to find another rental company in my city and was very disappointed, as well as my family.

Did not make clear that only Nestle employees could rent car. Arrived after long trip and was told No other cars available. Had to be on vacation without rental car.
