“Excellent Service”

Aimilianna P.

Helpful staff, clean car and offices. I used them the past couple of months 3 times in Athens airport, 2 in Chania for daily business trips. Strongly recommended, thanks

“Horrific policy”

Amy, J.
9/21/22

Horrific policy. My license from Canada updates every 5 yrs as do most across the globe. This is so for update of address and photo. According to Europcar policy if your license has a issue date of less than 1 year you can't rent a car. In my case, mine had renewed in Jan so although I have been driving for 40 years, I was given a hard time, an unbending front desk person and a delay in starting my holiday. Terrible policy. I will not rent from there again

We arrived at Heraklion airport and there was no sign or previous information on how to find or get to the the Europcar offices. Fortunately, by coincidence, we found somebody holding up a sign and he drove us the the office. This could have been explained better in advance. Secondly, we reserved a Fiat Panda or Mini, but got a Mitsubishi, which in my opinion, is even a lower category and smaller then the promoted model. It seems this is generally a modus operandi of rental car companies to tease you with a nice car and then give you a cheap alternative. Very disappointing.

Location: HERT02

Reason I chose this business:

Europcar is a worlwide rental car company.

Dear Alexander,
The time you took to share your experience with Europcar Greece is much appreciated. Our company strives to provide exceptional travel experiences to each of our clients every time they use our services. While the signs are necessary, airport regulations prevent us from placing any signage in the airport or in the arrival hall. In spite of the fact that the voucher sent to you contained all instructions. The model of Mitsubishi is a bigger category of the one you had booked.
Hopefully we will have the chance to win your trust again on one of your next trips.

Good reception. The car could be better because it has not enough power in some parts of the route but it was OK. Although I contracted premium insurance option I had to pay 31 euros for administrative fee that I did not understand.

I received my car and when I asked about the child seats, you told me that they were not available, even if I booked them several months ago!
After 10 mn arguing I finally got the 2 child seat!
Very stressful
Then for pick up we did a tour of the car in the night with a light to see if there was some scratches but not so convenient to really and fully see the car

Europcar team has been really helpful both over phone as on site once arrived. Just one small detail, it can be hard to find the minibus that takes you to the Europcar center near airport (wait to the bus parking lot on your right when exiting the airport). If possible a sign or indications at the airport (at the passengers exit) would be great. Apart from that all is currently ok.

Location: ATHT02

Reason I chose this business:

The French company I work for is now recommending Europcar to their personnel. Thus Europcar was already short listed even though the trip in Greece is holidays and not work related.

Rental car itself was good. NIce, clean and good condition.

At the airport there is no Europcar office and it was quite hard to find pick up place. I didn't see any signs.

I've been told by Europcar representative that final invoice I'll get after car return. I haven't received any. Nobody answered my email and nobody picked up the phone when I called them.

After having called the local Europcar agency we had to wait another 30 minutes in front of Mykonos airport for the pickup-service.

Finally the car we received was one category smaller and had only four seat belts for the five of us.

We'll see, if Europcar will be able to change the vehicle very soon as agreed!

Dear Hartwig

We're sorry to hear your experience was less than 5-stars and didn't meet your expectations. Europcar Greece values your feedback. Making our customers' travel experiences positive is very important to us.
We have investigated your case to ensure that all procedures were followed in a consistent and responsible manner. Your reservation was for a 4-seater car with four seat belts, however we could look at an upgrade of your reservation if you wish. There is a transfer protocol associated with COVID that allows up to one passenger more than the driver to ride in the pickup service.
In closing, Europcar offers high-quality services with consistency and efficiency to its customers in order to provide them with the highest possible travel experience. Our company philosophy is based on the values ​​of transparency and responsibility and are the main pillars of our customer service.
If there is anything else we can help you with, I suggest you contact us (email info@europcargreece.com, tel. +302111903000) and we will be happy to help you.

The checkout time was unbelievably long. I had reserved my car online, and when I approached the rental counter at the Athens airport there were 6 customers in front of me and there were two agents working at the counter. After an HOUR and fifteen minutes I had my papers to go retrieve the car. What astounded me was the inefficient repetition - most of the questions I was asked by the friendly rental agent were part of my Europcar profile. I believe the system was slow, because entering the redundant items like my e-mail address etc., took 3 - 4 minutes per entry. Once the paperwork was complete, receiving the actual car took another 20 minutes. Due to the lengthy checkout process, we had to travel to our destination in darkness, and on small winding Greek roads I did not find it safe. The car, a Nissan Mitra, was excellent - clean, excellent condition and very low fuel consumption. Returning the car was a reasonably quick process.

Location: ATHT02

Reason I chose this business:

I've used Europcar in France before and found Europcar to be a fair value. The experience in France was MUCH better (quicker checkout process)

Positive: driver and clerk at the car pick up location were very polite and funny. Really appreciate!
Negative: only thing why I give 4 instead of 5 stars is because there was no information on how to arrive to the pick up office. It was by luck that I got out of the airport and saw the Europcar van.

It was not clearly described on our booking, that there is no Europcar counter directly at the airport, but rather we had to look for an Assistant who brings you to the rental station which is a bit off the airport. Apart of that, the service was good and friendly.

My experience was mostly good, however, on the last day of the rental (02 May) I was hit by another car from the rear and Europcar were meant to collect the police report and forward me a copy. This is still pending and I desperately need these documents to complete my insurance claim.

My car works five and getting it was fairly straight forward. I had good service at the shop and the staff was open to questions and requests. As a German I was kind of surprised by a minimal first auf kit (almost empty). But it meets the countries standards. I still hope that a big company like Europcar would walk the extra mile and provide a proper first aid kit.

Process is frustrating. Phone number on app was incorrect. Walked to new Europcar booth in terminal. Instructions to find shuttle bus. Walk around. Find shuttle bus. Taken to Europcar, then stood outside bus for another 20 minutes while we waited for other customers to process their hire. I had booked the car for 2 pm, 3 months prior. Received the car at 3 pm, to then proceed for our long planned drive. Too much mucking around.

When booking the car rental it was stated that this was "on airport". On arrival I had to take a transfer bus to pickup my car which is not what I expected for an "on airport" service. When we eventually arrived at the office there was an excessive wait (almost 30 minutes) before we were able to get into the car and start our holiday.

Location: ATHT02

Reason I chose this business:

Because it is an established brand with an apparently good reputation.

Staff were uniformly helpful once we reached their off-site facility, and they upgraded us to a larger vehicle at no additional charge when the size we had reserved was not available. Check-in was smooth and the staff explained completely the charges on our bill. They made sure we knew how much time to allow ourselves to return the car before our departing flight. All good.
However, there was no representative at the group of car rental companies inside the Athens airport to direct customers to the shuttle, and no shuttle waiting in the shuttle parking area when we located that area. We took a cab to their off-site office, which was hard to find even for our cab driver. It will be good for the company when their office is back in the airport building.

Overall good experience, however it took quite some time at pick-up to accomodate my request of chaining 2 consecutive rentals I had, the additional driver was left out from the second rental and I was charged for it on the first one despite my privilege status (which clearly states the additional driver is at no extra charge). The staff was very helpful though, probably just unexperienced. The office and their fleet is brand new and we got the newest/best car in Greece ever before (any location).

We were given no details for picking up the car. We were surprised there wasn't an Europcar counter at the airport. Then two other rental car companies tried to tell us where to go. We wasted one hour before locating a shuttle.

The paperwork process was excruciatingly slow especially since we were exhausted and frustrated. Very disappointing start with only a little apology.

On the plus side, the car is doing great.
