The guy who served us at Geneva (I think his name was Hussain) was humorous, kind and efficient. Our flight was delayed so we arrived beyond opening hours however he couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful. In the past we have had very different experiences at Geneva airport with other hire car companies but I would definitely use Alamo again based on this experience. ps drop off was also simple!

When returning the vehicle, the agent found two speck-of-dust-sized chips on the windshield. I'm almost certain these would have been there when I picked it up given I never would have seen these without the special flashlight he was using for his own inspection. Now I am being charged $3000 after having been extra careful with the car. Filing insurance using my own credit card benefits so should not be an issue - but overall a terrible experience with drop-off, leaving me feeling cheated.

Warning - this company is fraudulent. During my rental, I hit a small animal which caused small damage to a plastic part on the car. This required replacing the plastic component, something that was billed at 700 CHF. This is fine, and fully my responsibility. However, on top of this, they took the opportunity to also repair a ton of scratches at various places on the car, that had been caused prior to my rental. Even though Alamo acknowledges that the scratches were present beforehand, they still charged me for the paint job of 900 CHF. I have contacted them on multiple occasions to get this reimbursed, and their "damage team" will get back to me "in one week". It is now almost two months. I have disputed the charge with my credit card company, hopefully Alamo will now take their responsibility and behave like decent human beings in a civilized country.

I normally dread going to the sales desk at a rental car company because normally they try and sell you everything. On this occasion, europcar had all the info they needed, didn't try and sell me anything, had the right size car available and only required a signature and a swipe of my credit card. And the when I dropped it off the handover was seamless, the staff were friendly and didn't try to find an issue with the car so that they could charge me more money. It really was the best experience I have ever had hiring a car (apart from the overall price, but I understand that is down the market, not Kayak or Europcar).

Pros: - really nice car (Skoda Fabia), fully equipped and very clean - guys at pick up/drop off place very nice and friendly Cons: - very low value for money especially for extra insurances like flat tyres; no option to eliminate the excess, only to lower the amount and for a high price (30CHF per day to reduce it from 2000 to 750) - a strange policy of looking for visible faults of the car before driving it off; there were other people like me in the parking lot looking for any scratches or punctures and trying to take pictures of any findings; this was utterly hilarious and ridiculous in the same time as we have been transformed from tourists to some sort of insurance agents! - when questioning the guy at the front desk about the excess he bluntly said that he doesn't know the conditions offered as we didn't booked with them but with a broker; a stupid thing to say as I imagine Europcar signed a contract with the broker and they offer the conditions agreed upon with Europcar. Bottom line, this was my first experience with Europcar and I will do my best to avoid this company due to policies they have in place.

It's been the 3rd week already and my money for guarantee haven't be released as they said. They told me that the same day that we will return the car the money will be on my bank account, which is totaly untrue. No one told us that Diesel fuel in French called "Gazole" that cost us many time and money from our vacation to seaching for a proper gas station. It is unnecessary to mention that no one again said anything about "adBlue". I leard about this is tricky thing from a friend and I manage to add 4 liters at the last mile before the car leave us for ever on the highway, PURE LUCK. Proper Thief Company for car Rental

One of the best car hire experiences I’ve had. No messing about, no selling of extras, had to use a transit bus but this was simple & efficient. Deposit sorted by the time my plane landed on the way home. Excellent.

They gave us a different car that we had asked for. Instead of getting a car big enough with between 4-5 doors, we were given a 3 door Fiat 500, where we almost could not fit our package...

Hidden costs. Charged me extra 60 euro to take to France from Switzerland. Tried to charge me 300 euros for insurance upgrade for 1 weekend. Was not the car I booked. Did not show me how to use the car. Do not use this company.

Refused to initially give me the size of vehicle I reserved. Gave me smaller vehicle than reserved and luggage wouldn't fit. Had to go back to desk to change vehicle, which required a second shuttle ride and lost hour delaying our long drive to hotel. The replacement vehicle was smaller than what was reserved, but larger than the first. Vehicle was lower quality than what was reserved. Feeling abused and cheated.

The car itself was annoying. It kept beeping about something and there is no indication anywhere on any screen or display as to why. I thought mabye it was when I approached a train crossing, but honestly I still really don’t know.

The main problem was price gouging. I paid for 3 days in mini car what I normally paid for a luxury SUV for 2 weeks. I often travel through GVA and will never use Thrifty or Hertz again, ever. I can afford the money, but cannot afford to lower myself in supporting such a greedy and inefficient company.

Never EVER travel with Avis on the French sector of Geneva Airport. There is no signage / wayfinding to the return area. I spent 45 minutes driving around putting in their “suggested” location onto goggle maps and WAZE which literally makes you drive around in circles. The return is down some dodgy road, where the maps is telling you to do a UTURN. None of the contact details are Correct on the paperwork. The charge for dropping off on the Swiss side was over £500. It would have taken Avis 10 min to drive it back to the French side. The car also didn’t have a full tank.

Geneva airport is a nightmare. There were some surprise admionistration fees that make the booking substantially more expensive than it would seem initially.

When collecting the vehicle it was found to be dirty inside, front windscreen was awful could almost not see through it was so filthy, in fact the vehicle was picked up from what seem to be the return bay ....on the opposite side it seem that was where the clean vehicle were....dissapointing as had no choice as was in rush to drive to the Alps, in the vehicle that was given, possibly due to the low cost via USA website Also I asked to make certain i had snow chain as per French law, was given one set but apparently one was already in the vehicle as per normal , and was charged an additional €65 despite the return person confirming i would not be charged if not used (which wasn't) beside this all was fine

It has been a nightmare to pick the car up from French sector since you are not allowed to pass through within the airport building. This was very uncomfortable with all the ski gear, etc. We were given a car damaged allover and with summer tires on which is illegal in France in 48 departments in mountainous areas. We could not drive the car because of snow and had to cancel many of our programs. Dropping off luggage at Geneva airport Swiss sector then dropping off the car at French sector was cumbersome. I will never rent from AVIS again. Worst renting experience in my life!

The car was OK. The price was extremely high. We didn't have a clue what an AdBlue is, and we were stuck in a gas station, with no ability to start the engine, after filling engine oil... :) The staff should not assume all worldwide customers are familiar with AdBlue... and/or have diesel cars.

We dropped the car off within the contract period. They not only charged us an extra day, but they also sent us a photo of damage to the car that they want to charge us for. The photo was taken almost 24 hours after we dropped off the car. I have now asked them three times to provide me with their records of when the car was returned to their possession, and they are refusing to answer that question. So instead I am forced to dispute the charge through my credit card company.

The desk was poorly manned, we had to wait an hour and a half after the previous client had waited two hours or more, or even closed on drop off. No parking spaces available, car not clean, badly damaged and not reported on pick up. Overall not good, stick with the Swiss side, after all of the extras and hassle on the French side, the Swiss is a much better prospect.
