What is an insurance excess?

The excess is the amount you'll only be liable for in case of damage (under Collision Damage Waiver) or theft (under Theft Protection) of the vehicle. Information about the excess will be clearly stated in the price inclusion when you reserve a car on QEEQ.

How can I add an additional driver?

You are advised to make a request upon your arrival at the rental counter. Additional charge per day will incur unless '1 Additional Driver Included' is stipulated on the rental. Please note that the same licence and age requirement applies to the additional driver. The additional driver is supposed to present the required licence document along with the main driver at pickup.

10 - "The car I booked was the car I got. The staff were friendly, and they let me pick up the car more than an hour earlier without any issue. There were no upselling tactics or unclear charges, and the deposit was refunded promptly. Since I'm not a skilled driver, I chose to purchase the full local insurance. The car was in great condition and easy to drive. One suggestion: avoid returning the car in downtown Paris at all costs—the traffic is absolutely terrible!"
Alamo

Alamo
10 - "Very satisfied. Picking up the car in Nice was quick and simple. The car was in good condition, clean and well-maintained. Returning the car in Paris was straightforward, just park the car and hand over the keys at the counter. The credit card pre-authorization was canceled within a few hours—great experience."
Enterprise
10 - "I booked a Peugeot 508 but was upgraded to a BMW 3 Series diesel wagon. The car had 70,000 kilometers on it but was in very good condition. I didn't visit any chaotic big cities, so there were no issues with theft or vandalism. I thoroughly enjoyed the driving experience with the diesel BMW: precise steering, adaptive cruise control with L2 semi-autonomous driving, powerful performance, stable at high speeds, and excellent sound insulation. It's perfect for the South of France, which has both mountain roads and highways for long-distance driving. In terms of space, the trunk is very large and can fit two 28-inch suitcases plus a carry-on bag."

8 - "Originally booked a Peugeot 208, but received an MG3 for pickup. The car is small, which makes it well-suited for Europe's narrow streets. It was easy to drive. Purchased full insurance and completed a round trip from Avignon to Nice, including visits to nearby towns. The only slight inconvenience was parking. The refund of the pre-authorization took a bit longer than expected."
Keddy by Europcar
8 - "Overall good, but the car wasn't 100% full on fuel at pickup. Returning it with a full tank resulted in some loss."
Enterprise
10 - "Provides detailed guidance, so you don't have to find the car on your own."

Alamo
10 - "Had to wait in line a bit during pickup because there were some unusual customers ahead, like those without their own credit cards or wanting to use cash as a deposit. The staff handled it all calmly. Returning the car was very smooth, with the staff completing the inspection quickly."

10 - "Alamo has always been my top choice for car rentals during my trips to France. The experience has consistently been excellent—professional and efficient!"
Alamo
8 - "The car rental staff were very friendly and helpful. When picking up the car, I didn’t like the reserved yellow-colored vehicle, so they immediately switched it to a Renault Captur. At drop-off, I informed the staff that the car wasn’t cleaned at pickup and that the drop-off location had been changed without prior notice. The staff quickly deducted 50 euros from the rental cost, which was very considerate. Additionally, regarding the absence of an environmental sticker on the car, we had to delay our journey to contact the rental company and QEEQ. The rental company provided no response, and QEEQ claimed they were reaching out to the rental company. The long communication process did not yield a definitive answer. The staff at the drop-off location clearly stated that rental cars in France no longer require an environmental sticker. Surprisingly, QEEQ also lacked this information."

8 - "No specific instructions were provided for the return process."
OK Mobility
10 - "The front desk staff can communicate in English to complete the procedures, and their service attitude is excellent. If you purchased full insurance on the QEEQ platform, there's no need to buy the car rental company's own insurance. They will keep recommending their insurance, first quoting the original price, and if you refuse, they will offer the discounted online price. It is ultimately up to you whether to buy or not. If you drive carefully, the insurance from the platform is sufficient. It is recommended to use a small car in Marseille. We rented a Lynk SUV, which was easy to drive but relatively large. Some roads in Marseille are quite narrow, so be mindful of potential scrapes."

Lutam
10 - "The car rental company in Nice provides excellent service and operates very professionally. The contract is proactively sent to my email. They also take the initiative to introduce the condition of the vehicle and nearby gas stations. There is no push to sell insurance."
Avis
8 - "Average level."
Europcar
10 - "The staff at the rental company, a young guy and a lady, were very friendly and polite. The originally booked Volkswagen Taigo was unavailable, so they upgraded me directly to a large SUV. Consulting about full insurance at the rental location went smoothly as well."
Avis
10 - "The car pick-up process was very smooth, the keys were left inside the car. The vehicle was brand new and extremely easy to drive."
Enterprise
10 - "The car was in excellent condition. Although I rented a BMW, they provided a hybrid Mercedes, which was very new and drove great."
