The worst service ever! Had to wait approx. half an hour at the counter with a little baby despite of having only one person in front. Overcharged for a minor damage to a wheel I do not remember making. It took another half an hour to return the car, despite of being the only customer.

I have experienced Europcar before, they advertise a nice car and then usually offer a substantially lower model as the or similar e.g. this year I rented a Kashqai and got a Renault Kajar, last year a Merc E class and got a Volvo V90 and so on, I will try to avoid them in future as its an obvious sales tactic. I upgraded to a Merc C class that was good.

Smooth pick-up and drop-off, no hidden extras, fun car to drive (Fiat 500). Boot not big enough for a large suitcase but I will know that for next time!

Excellent check in and drop off process. Very efficient. Finding the avis pickup location was slightly difficult as there was no one at the counter and the directions to the location were unclear. However, the rest of the process was very smooth and no upsell of insurance was attempted..

Pre-check prior to hire was not rigourous enough - this resulted in me being charged for stowed tyre inflator. This was apparently missing on my returning the van. So it was missing when I drove the vehicle off - unbeknown to me. For stowed (therefore hidden) parts, rental companies should have checklist of items renters need to check before leaving the forecourt. Wholly unreasonable for hire companies to expect renters to have mental list of all hidden equipment (spare tyre, jack, high viz jacket, triangle etc etc) that they need to check before leaving so that they do not get charged excesses on return! I contested this with Hertz and they waived the charge fortunately. But unpleasant.

Vehicle handed to me in poor condition due to badly damaged wheel, if that had been my personal car I would not have driven it in that condition!

Like: Picking up the car was painless, I was expecting lots of paperwork and hassle but this was not the case. I was dealt with in a friendly manner and very efficiently. Would highly recommend. The vehicle I was given was superb and tempted to buy one now
Dislike: Everything was perfect.

Landing at NCL with 6 people, 1 with a child seat, it's not too convenient for the driver to go to the Ponteland office then drive back to collect everyone. Why not bring the car to the airport?
