Often if you don't have a car at the same level, you will be upgraded. Sometimes if you wait for a long time, they will give you a free GPS or change to a diesel version.

We were told when returning the car that it was in perfect condition and we could leave without worry. A few days later, the invoice arrived and we were charged an additional 1100 euros for damage. 1100 is the minimum amount charged in the car rental company's contract. We rented from Enterprise Berlin Zoo and returned it at Frankfurt Main Station. Have you ever encountered such a situation ? Germany Q&A

I have a question. When we picked up the car, we charged more than 50. I didn't understand what this money was for. Was it a deposit for the last box of oil, or did it mean that we didn't have to return the full amount we borrowed? Have any of you encountered this situation ? Germany Q&A

In Germany, there is a fine of 30 euros for illegal parking, which was paid by transferring the money to a local Chinese person. After returning the car, a notification was received that the full deposit of 1000 euros would be refunded within an hour. Recently, an email was received, which seems to be a charge of 24 euros from the car rental company. Is this the so-called penalty management service fee? How can this be transferred in China, and what are the consequences if it is not paid? Does anyone know ? Germany Q&A

Violations generally do not receive information so quickly, unless they are fines issued on the spot. The pre-authorized deduction should be part of the fees charged by the car rental company other than the car rental. Please carefully check the bill to see if there are any fees that you did not notice. The car rental company will not help you handle violations, so they will not pre-authorize fees to handle them ?

Can you tell me that I paid the deposit with my domestic credit card in Europcar in Germany. It has been a week since I returned the car, but the deposit has not been credited in time.

Some people are willing to save tens of yuan a day, carefully checking scratches when picking up and returning the car, and paying first and then claiming compensation when an accident occurs. Some people are willing to spend money to save trouble, leaving the keys and walking away after returning the car. It's just a matter of personal habit ? Germany Q&A
