I wonder if everyone has encountered this situation. We rented a car in Madrid yesterday and the staff asked us to buy scratch insurance, saying that if there is a problem, we have to pay 1650 euros. When renting a car, the app mentioned not to easily buy the packages they recommend, so we refused to buy. But this morning, we found that the car was scratched terribly. ? Spain Q&A
I stayed for one night, drove into the parking lot, and the attendant appeared for the fee. When I picked up the car, the attendant was also there. My luggage is at that hotel, and it's hard to say if there's anyone watching overnight. The parking lot doesn't have a fence or a guard booth, but it still looks safe. After all, there are few outsiders in the small city, mostly tourists. If the luggage is left in the car overnight, don't open the trunk after parking, just cover it up so it's not visible from the outside ? Spain Q&A
Hello, I have a local Spanish driving license, but it is less than one year old. I am 25 years old and I want to rent a car. Do you know if it's possible? Because I looked at almost all the car rental companies in Spain and they all require a driving license to be at least one year old. And I have also sent emails to some car rental companies to ask, but it feels like all the official replies say no, at least one year. So are there any car owners who have had this situation and successfully rented a car? Any car can be rented as long as it is the lowest grade ? Spain Q&A

Also when I picked up the car at the railway station, the car was very dirty on the outside, and there were many scratches, as well as a dent.

Dear friends, I would like to ask, when I picked up the car in Barcelona, the rental company charged me 59 euros and I'm not sure what it is for. I have purchased full insurance. Can you please tell me what the charge on the receipt is for? Is it for fuel? (Isn't fuel usually charged for a full tank and returned with a full tank?) ? Spain Q&A
Please ask, I booked a car from Avis in Spain. The website says I can pick up the car with just my driver's license and a translated copy. Will there be any issues if I have an accident? Do I need to get any notarization or dual authentication? Thank you ? Spain Q&A

We rented a car in Spain and returned it a month ago. The car rental agency charged our credit card for the transfer management fee for traffic violations. When I asked the customer service, they said they would send us the traffic violation bill later, and we would have to pay the fine ourselves. The transfer management fee is only 40 euros or so. Is it that expensive? Has anyone else encountered this situation ? Spain Q&A
