|Aug 2025I showed up at the counter and was denied the rental because my licence said GDL even though I am out of the program. I under stand that it’s not in the control of the counter Agent however a pop up or notice while renting the card would be extremely helpful especially hen you are being denied a rental when you are already on vacation and have no other arrangements. Absolutely terrible!

|Aug 2024Great vehicle and condition. Issue arose when I advised, a week before the conclusion of the contract, that I would like to change the drop off point to a town further north. The person behind the desk indicated it would mean “changing the whole contract” and got the distinct impression he could not bothered so simply suggested I drop it off at the desired location and pay a penalty for unauthorised drop off… Seemed pretty inefficient and costly. People at the alternate centre were very good on receiving the vehicle but not the best experience overall.

|Mar 2026Getting to the rental car area was cumbersome: long walk, then still had to take a shuttle. Rental agreement was in French, but one of the staff spoke good English and was able to help me understand what I was signing.

|Oct 2025We rented one car and got a smaller one then drop off which was chosen online was not available on the day we went to drop it off and had no drop box to leave the car. No one was available with the number there to call and the online number from confirmation was no help at all. Thank goodness to the man who runs the garage next door showing up and helped up.

|Jul 2025Actual scam. Force you to pay so many extra fees and advertise unlimited km, but that’s only if you’re from out of Provence. Location is inconvenient. Pick up was a nightmare and was an extra hour and a half wait. Ended up refusing the car and cut my losses. They were going to charge me over $130 a day for a car that was advertised as $40. I feared if these were the ridiculous prices up front there could only be more bs charges when I returned which is why I refused the car altogether. Avoid at all costs.
