I rented the car from Europcar at Munich Airport. Since the airport is small, I quickly got through customs, picked up my luggage, and went to get the car. However, the counter staff said I arrived early and the car wasn't ready yet. They asked if I wanted to pay extra for a larger car. I had to wait at the airport for a while before getting the car. They didn't ask if I wanted to add any extras and mentioned they would hold some money as a deposit. The entire receipt was in German, and they didn't explain it, just asked for my signature. After returning home, I realized they overcharged me 100 euros for renting a GPS. I contacted Zuzuche for help, and they patiently assisted me in communicating with Europcar. However, Europcar claimed my signature proved I was aware of the charge. Remember to check every item carefully. This was the first time I encountered such an dishonest car rental company.

At pickup, the reserved vehicle was not available, only a so-called same class vehicle was provided. However, the trunk space was quite small, so it took time to fit our luggage every time. Additionally, the order didn't have local language documents, making communication difficult. Moreover, there was an extra insurance fee for returning the car in a different location, which was unexplained. Due to time constraints, we had no choice but to accept.

I purchased full insurance from the rental company, but there was no staff accompanying me to pick up the car. They just handed me the key, and I had to find the car myself. The vehicle was a Jeep hybrid with a small fuel tank, which was inconvenient, and the fuel wasn’t topped off. After negotiating, they refunded me upon returning the car. The interior was a mess, like a trash can, with drink cups, fast food bags, and cookie crumbs everywhere. It seemed like they didn’t inspect or clean the car after the previous customer’s return. One of the rear seatbelts was also broken.

The staff's attitude was mediocre. I emphasized that I rented a Porsche, but they gave me a similar model and insisted it was impossible to provide me with a Porsche. They also pushed me to buy insurance, which I refused.

1. No physical rental contract. The electronic contract is overly complicated, making it hard to identify any damage to the car. 2. The car return process does not include on-site inspection; they only said they would send an email. 3. The deposit takes three months to be refunded, whereas other rental companies usually process it within three working days. Not recommended.

The driver picking me up refused to go to the designated Subway entrance, and I had to call several times to get him to come. It's quite far, over 15 minutes by car. The counter only had one or two staff members, and they were very slow.

The car was pretty good, but after returning the car and coming back to my home country, there was a dispute regarding the car's condition. It took nearly three months to resolve, and the appeal was successful. ⚠️ To avoid disputes, please make sure to take photos with watermarks on the day of return.

The rental company offers packages that include toll fees and insurance, which is quite suitable. It saves the trouble of car inspection, and the car provided even has a green zone permit.

You usually don't get the car you reserved. I booked a Mercedes-Benz E-Class wagon but was given an Alfa Romeo. The Alfa Romeo has no other major issues, but the front bumper radar sensor is blocked by the license plate, which is not securely fixed. When driving, the license plate shakes, causing frequent false alerts. It's pretty frustrating.

Very good, much cheaper than Sixt. The car was clean, and although the one I booked wasn't available, they upgraded it to a better model. However, it seems like they charged extra for that. The total was 491 euros, while it showed 2388 yuan in the QEEQ app.

The rental company did not provide the vehicle as stated in the contract. I booked a Mercedes E, but was given a Mercedes A. Upon realizing the discrepancy, I immediately returned to the counter to discuss it, only to be told that A and E are the same category. How could a luxurious mid-size sedan and a compact sedan be considered equivalent? This blatant consumer fraud caused a two-hour delay at the airport, and no satisfactory solution was offered. Helplessly, I had to take the A and leave.

It wasn't Buchbinder (they were bought by Europcar?). Be careful in the return process because they will "find" you an invisible scratch that you will never be able to trace (like under the baggage hood) to charge you for handling and fixing fees.

Buchbinder is the worst rental car company in the airport imho. They offered a much lower class car instead of the premium one we reserved. They stated that its actually a better car because its bigger in size. We ended up trying to cancel with a fee. I would never go with them

Very dissatisfied, both with the car rental company and the platform. Initially, I switched to a cheaper car for the last few days of my trip abroad, in case I needed some transportation. The location was not difficult to find, but the pickup suggestions provided by the platform were extremely unreasonable. The car was handed over to me right after the previous customer returned it, without any cleaning process. The car's condition was very poor, so I took multiple videos to avoid disputes. After driving 500 meters onto the highway, a tire pressure warning appeared. Upon returning home, I contacted the rental company, and they acknowledged it was a sensor issue. However, on German highways where speeds exceed 150 km/h, no one would risk their safety. The next day, I returned the car early and requested to terminate the contract. The rental company said they needed to consult their boss, and then things became ridiculous. When I contacted the platform, without understanding the situation, they blamed me for not signing certain documents with the rental company. Honestly, the money involved wasn’t a lot, and previous rentals provided good cars. But when issues arose, the platform's service was truly shocking. It’s been five days now with no updates. In the future, I'll rent directly from car rental companies.

We rented a Ford S-max minivan to go skiing to Austria. The car was all the time located in the secure car parking in front of the hotel. Unfortunately, either due to the cold or snow, the car window cracked. There was no sign of any external damage. When I returned the car, a member of staff told me that it should be no problem. When I got home, I saw a bill for 500 euro. I feel that I got ripped off for nothing(manufacturing defect). Good luck in resolving this issue as well, the expected response times are longer than 7 days.

The car we were given was actually a Hertz car, not a Dollar one. Everything was fine, other than when we picked up the car, the guy at the rental counter in Munich specifically said it was a diesel car. Part through through our trip, we needed to fill up with fuel, nbut the diesel nozzle didn't fit the tank. The tank suggested it was petrol. We called Hertz to ask what to do, We were told that the records stated diesel and "good luck". we spent a lot of time trying to decode the VIN numkber, but that didn't help, we researched the make / model of the car (Ford Kuga) online but that din't help either. We were close to going to a Ford dealer to get their help but it was the weekend. So in the end we filled up with petrol and everythingwas fine. When we returned the car to Frankfurt, the person who greeted us told us it was a petrol car. Your records for this vehicle need to be cahnged, or at least not have your counter staff tell customers incorrect info. Other than that, the car was excellent

They kept pushing insurance and the cross-border fee was twice the suggested price. There was no personnel for vehicle handover, the vehicle provided wasn't the one reserved, and it had multiple noticeable scratches that weren't marked. We had to go back to the rental place, wasting a lot of time. There was a mileage limit that wasn't mentioned, and there was no mutual verification of the mileage data. The charge for excess mileage should be communicated and signed off in advance. There was no mileage check when returning the car either. The deposit has not been released two weeks after returning the car, and there are unclear charges. The responsibilities are not clearly defined, making the customer very dissatisfied. Why is the cross-border fee so expensive without a clear standard?

Very busy when collecting the car. Made to sign paperwork before inspecting vehicle When I highlighted the condition with the man at car collection all the damage was put onto a duplicate sheet. He took a copy and I took a copy. When bringing the car back none of the damage had been passed on and they initially tried to say I had done it. Luckily I had checked the car and had all of my paperwork to hand. Alot of people will be caught out by this and I see it as a scam being run by the company. Very disappointed.

Did not provide the reserved model. The provided vehicle was smaller in capacity than the reserved one. There were no other options, and we had to accept it. The car was not in good condition, even though it was fairly new. It started showing faults not long after we began driving. It was a diesel car, and we had to look for the manual to find out that the AdBlue was empty. Not sure who is responsible for this cost.
