Absolutely awful experience ! Walk away from this company and if you are still motivated to go with them, I would not recommend you to deal with EWAN who has clearly abused of our trust and lied to us without blinking an eye !
He "offered us" an upgrade on our original vehicle, without specifying this will trigger higher "Premium insurance" that we did not need as we booked through our Gold Mastercard which includes rental car insurance as long as everything is paid with it. We took it as he was doing us a gesture.
Only realised that we had that extra cost to pay when we were about to return the car (Ewan was really good at pointing out the spaces to sign on the contract but not at going through the details of the price/cost which are written in tiny characters, of course).
We discussed this when we turned the car and EWAN went to the back office behind the desk pretending he was phoning one of his managers and came back telling us everything was sorted and that we will get a refund within 4 to 10 days for the extra cost of the Premium insurance. He looked at us in the eyes my wife and myself, said "this is not something we would normally do but we are making an exception for you but you have to take good care of me by giving me the highest score on the satisfactory survey". We were ready to do so but as we never received the refund and after contacting Europcar customer service got told that this will not happen and that they could only rely on physical evidence (signed invoice).
Indeed we should have read more carefully the contract, and we accept this but we don't accept the way we have been tricked and also that EWAN lied right in our faces while we had decided to be honest and to trust him !
Walk away from this dishonest practices !
