Wanted to warn other travelers. I have never had a bad experience with car hires / rental cars…read moreanywhere in the world: South Africa, India, USA, Spain, etc. We rented a car here in Faro from Guerin (Alamo, Enterprise, National). They quickly inspected the car along with me. We noticed bumps and bruises but they said they were small enough and not to worry. We drove to our hotel for the day and back. Upon coming back, the employee opened the passenger door and noticed a light scratch on the inside edge of the door. I obviously disputed and he claimed it was new. No way I would've thought to review interior edges of doors on the initial inspection. Clearly a money grab. I will dispute the charges and keep everyone updated, but what a headache and dirty practice. I saw on other reviews that Guerin (Enterprise, Alamo, and National) do not return deposits or add more charges later as well. Please be careful and avoid this if possible. I saw reviews on several other local rent-a-cars that will avoid you the distress on your vacation and calls to insurance companies after to help dispute. What a mess.
Update: been 2 weeks and they haven't responded to my calls or emails but went through with the charges on my credit card
