Whether to fill up the gas tank when returning the car depends on the terms and conditions. Eroucar's new service does not require customers to deliberately refuel, as they will refuel without charging a processing fee and deduct the cost from the prepaid amount. I returned the car with a full tank, and the staff inspected the car on the spot and confirmed the signature on the mobile app. About a week later, I received a refund of 300 euros from the prepaid amount. On the other hand, another car rental company, Hertz, charges a pre-authorization of 75 euros and deducts the cost if the gas tank is not full, so the staff advised us to use up the gas as much as possible. Of course, we returned the car with a full tank, but the prepaid amount has not been refunded yet ? Germany Q&A
