When I got there, they charged me to add rental car collision/damage coverage, which I had already added and paid for with Kayak. The charge they added for coverage was $150, and I shouldn’t have been charged, because I already paid for coverage through Kayak. I believed there was a break down in communication between Europcar and kayak. I should have only been charged what I paid kayak up front.

Poor|Aug 2024
The agent who we interacted upon our arrival was not helpful and was not empathetic at all. I forgot my physical cards and my husband’s credit card was acting up. We were trying to pay with cash/debit card and were told they won’t accept it and they do not allow apple pay or cash as the “whole of Switzerland” guess what? We were able to use apple pay anywhere and Sixt helped us get a vehicle without that unhelpful tone like that guy.

Location is great as always at the airport. Service agent was able to adjust my drop-off time without compensation to help me with flight changes, was very nice.
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.
