Dnk Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) I used Avis last year, i joined as a preferred customer to get faster cheaper checkin and deals but this year their price for the same car same dates has doubled I got great service from them, no queing at the hire desks in the airport, straight down to the garage checkin in the carpark and a nearly new Audi Q2 ready and waiting, check out was just as good Sadly the price compared to others makes them simply too expensive Also heard lots of rumours and read the terrible reviews regarding too many car hire comps at Malaga. I used Drivalia 2 years before but that was at Alicante, they were very good too but off site, still no issues but not sure they operate at Malaga Edited August 6, 2018 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I read some people saying about some comps that unless you'd taken out their full priced deal with the ridiculously priced insurance policies you sat at the back of que I bought car hire excess insurance cover here for a fraction of what the car hire comps want, cost me £27 for 12 months cover with Questor, Avis had no problem with that Also be careful of having no roadside assistance in your carhire agreement, again an extra. Good luck and who ever you use check out the car before you drive off and take photos and report any damage scratches marks on wheels interior damage etc Check the vanity mirrors are in one piece as i read a scam about those too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
