One issue I didn't understand was the insurance. I believe I paid QEEQ as the agent sufficient funds to ensure full coverage and no excess. On pick up I was asked for a $3000 bond and told any damage etc would be taken from that bond. I would then approach QEEQ for a claim on insurance paid with you. Turns out there were no issues, but I still don't get it?

The car was old and not well kept. When requested to change the car we were told bluntly that this was the only one they had. We could see one more better looking vehicle but we were denied saying that it was already booked inspite of noone there to pick up the vehicle. Very disappointed by the staff and the way we were treated.

Great price and easy access to the vehicle. Bond is a bit steep if you don’t purchase insurance but overall very happy with the experience
