Bad experience with Alamo/Enterprise Rent a Car in Eindhoven:…read moreI rented a BMW Series 1 for 10 days - great car, no issues at all. At drop-off, however, they claimed there was a tiny scratch (less than 1 cm) on the rim, something I hadn't even noticed. Honestly, I hadn't checked the rims so closely, and it might have already been there.
A week later I was charged almost €300: €250 for that tiny scratch plus admin fees. I disputed the charge as completely disproportionate, but after 10 days of "review" they replied curtly that it was a fixed fee according to their damage matrix, with no intention of reconsidering. They already had my credit card on file, so nothing I could do.
Let's be honest: they won't replace the rim, they'll just add the note to the car's record and wait for the next unlucky customer.
Beware of Alamo/Enterprise Rent a Car: check the car extremely carefully and expect unpleasant surprises.
