Worst ever car hire in experience
I hired a car via EasyJet from Faro airport. The car hire company concerned was Klass Wagen. In my view EasyJet should not be recommending this company and I hope they stop doing so so that other people don’t have to start their holiday with the same experience as us. Firstly our flight had been delayed by almost 7 hours due to technical problems. When I called the company on arrival to request the shuttle bus, the first thing they told me was that I would have to pay a penalty for arriving late. The rest of the experience at the car hire office was very unpleasant and the agent aggressively tried to encourage me to take out their way expensive insurance product. He also charged me additional fees for the toll token and a deposit for this. They then refused to accept my credit card even though it was perfectly valid. In the end, as I had a very bad feeling about the company and as it felt that they didn’t really want me to rent a car from them I asked to be taken back to the airport. I forfeited the rental fee and had to pay 100 euros for a return taxi fare to our hotel. I took photos of the office when I left and was threatened with the police if I didn’t show them I had deleted the photos from both my photos and the recently deleted file. The taxi fare and lost booking fee was a small price to pay to be free of having to deal with Klass Wagen any more. Please EasyJet stop using them. They are damaging your reputation and making a misery of many people’s holidays. Thank you.
