32 Car Rental Brands at Bergamo Airport (BGY)

At the car rental counter, they require you to sign the contract first and then collect the car (the contract roughly marks some pre-existing scratches on the car). Once you sign the contract, it implies that you acknowledge the car only has these scratches at the time of collection. Essentially, the car inspection process is moved earlier in the timeline. While this process itself is not necessarily problematic, the issue arises when the actual car has far more scratches than those indicated in the contract. To make things worse, you’ll find out later that even if you present all the photos of scratches taken during pickup, the rental company is unlikely to accept your claim. Their reasoning? The scratches aren’t noted on the inspection form attached to the rental contract, and you already signed it, which means the company will default to the contract. If you refuse to sign the contract initially, you won’t even get the car keys—effectively trapping you in a cycle. Allow me to compare this experience with prior rental experiences. In domestic rentals, the norm is to inspect the car first, note all scratches, and take photos before signing the contract, preventing disputes over scratches. In Australia and Norway, they also follow the sign-before-inspect process, but either they don’t mark any pre-existing scratches on the contract and rely on photos taken at pickup, or they don't use pre-existing scratches to trap you. Long story short: welcome to Italy! Predictably, after returning the car, the rental company filed a claim for over €300 for those unrecorded 'old scratches.' Fortunately, I had full insurance, but the way they treated us left a bitter taste. My advice to anyone renting a car: avoid this company if possible. If you must use them, make sure to purchase full insurance; otherwise, it's entirely up to luck.

I was shocked to see that I was charged for a dent on the car's door that was not there upon return. I used Budget before but never thought I have to take pictures / video of the car after I park just so I have proof that I returned it in the same condition it was when picked up. This is the last time I will book a car from Budget.

The guy with the gold chain was incredibly persuasive and insisted on buying the rental company's insurance. However, I had already purchased full coverage through QEEQ and firmly declined.

Goldcar always try to sell extra option and sometimes you can't refuse of them. last time it was service of fuel refill and i couldn't rent car without this service. This time it was the pick-up location. Although as said in booking terms pick-up location is in the airport but you need to pay 20 euro for that. otherwise you have to go to other parking about an hour by yourself. And they charged me for the last rent which was 1,5 years ago for empty fuel tank returning, although i always return the car, refilling full. They didn't show any evidence, fotos.

Goldcar is a FRAUD. My credit card did not work, so to allow my partner's card, they made us buy some kind of extra insurance for 2 times more than we initially spent, which also included full insurance...

As an experienced driver, I didn't purchase insurance. It was raining when picking up the car, making it hard to notice any potential issues. When returning the car, they claimed a very small dent on the front windshield was caused by a pebble on the highway and demanded €160 in compensation. Absolutely unreasonable! They stated it would only be processed a month later, forcing me to sign and accept. I'll never use this small company again!

It was a horrible experience. They tried to give us a diesel cadillac saying they didn't have the ford focus we ordred. They said the insurance we bought through QEEQ was not reliable and we needed to spend 400 Euros to have the minimal insurance. We asked about GPS and they would have charged us 135E but were out, anyhow the car they finally gave us had GPS. They said since I booked the car I couldn't have my husband as a driver so the charged another 95E. They said that drop off at Venice airport after pick up at Bergamo was another 170+ Euros, though I understood there was no extra charge. There was a large road tax about 145 E. The woman helping us was confusing and unpleasant

The car was as promised. Service at the counter was good and quick. The only problem was that I had problems with the shuttle from the airport to the OK-Mobility location. The shuttle driver didn't agree to take me and it took a long time to get there, maybe an hour or so. It would have been helpful to have their phone number. But once at their location, service was excellent.

Vehicle was clean and in good condition. Winter tires were in the car as promised. Check in was quick and without any unexpected things. Counter staff explained everything to me. It was quick. Paid 1400 eur deposit from credit card. It was released right after drop off. Brought back with less fuel(forgot to put fuel before arrival), and it was ok me to pay the fuel difference. Drop off was quick also, staff was very helpfull. Then they drive us to the airport. It was first time I rented a car in Italy. And I saw too many very bad experience reviews from others for other rent companies. But then I discovered Centauro with good reviews. And now from my own experience I would 100% recommend this company. Reasonable price and good quality car and service.

It was okay, I rented from them again later for a few more days. The car I got was covered in scratches, probably because it was due for repairs, but I insisted on using the Lynk & Co 01 that I'm used to. Extending the rental wasn't very convenient, as you have to apply and wait for a long time to communicate. Additionally, due to language issues, English proficiency is limited in many countries, so it's best to avoid needing any in-person communication. The fuel deposit the rental company charges is also quite confusing.

Had an awful experience with their roadside assistance and some of the customer service staff over the phone. Was not explained in a lot of detail how to use an electric car, despite letting staff know it was my first time. Was given a pamphlet, however the process of using the charging ports was horrible. Needed to ask for help on the street in Bologna as I was stranded for hours. Staff over the phone told me roadside assistance could not help me until the morning as nothing was available. Was told to 'ask someone on the street' for help, hung up on twice when I told them I did not speak Italian, and got told there was nothing they could do. I did speak to one man who was helpful (Vard), however the towtruck that was ordered for me did not come in the expected time slot, and I was only able to get the car working from kind strangers on the street.

I was impressed by the friendly and helpful staff, who did not pressure me re insurance. Their site was close to Bergamo Railway Station and away from the airport. We were collected from the airport and taken to their office - and as we were travelling by train they dropped us at the station at the end of our trip. I would recommend this company and would use them again.

1. Ecovia provide the car with half fuel tank, but did not mention it in a document. I was not able to identify this on pick up, since the dash board has 2 fuel meters: CNG and Gas, I was lookin on the Gas, not being aware of the 2d. I've sent an email, requesting to confirm this done by intention, few days later to both central and pick-up (Bergamo airport) office, but got no reply. Have remind them 2 time more, got no reply. They eventually replied right after my car was returned, but did not relate to my question at all. Finally, I requested to refund me for half tank, as I returned the car, but there was no refund. 2. Ecovia provide me with a car with CNG fule, which was highly uncomfortable to find a fule station for it. On counter they said they have only this kind of car.

Counter staff was threatening hard sell for the insurance. I’ll never use them again. I spent £30 on insurance when booking the car and they tell you that it’s not enough and that you have to buy insurance or will end up in a bad situation. Like road side assistance will be charged or if you leave your car parked and someone damaged it. I was left helpless at that stage and ended up paying 150 euros. Horrible sales technique.
