Extremely disappointing experience with…

Extremely disappointing experience with Locauto. I was refused a rental because my driver's license had minor physical damage, even though it was valid and all the information was clearly readable. I understand the importance of following company policies, but I expected some common sense and a more balanced evaluation of the situation.
As a direct result of this decision, I lost approximately €1,200 in travel arrangements, reservations, and other expenses that I was unable to recover. This significant financial loss could have been avoided with a more customer-focused approach.
In addition, the service provided by Manuela was cold, unhelpful, and showed no willingness to look for a solution or demonstrate any understanding. I was made to feel like a problem rather than a valued customer.
I cannot recommend Locauto and will certainly choose other rental companies in the future.

Esperienza estremamente deludente con Locauto. Mi è stato rifiutato il noleggio perché la mia patente presentava un piccolo danno fisico, nonostante fosse valida e tutte le informazioni fossero leggibili. Capisco l'importanza delle procedure, ma mi aspettavo un minimo di buon senso e una valutazione più equilibrata della situazione.
A causa di questa decisione ho perso circa 1.200 euro tra prenotazioni, spese di viaggio e costi aggiuntivi che non sono stato in grado di recuperare. È stato un danno economico importante che avrebbe potuto essere evitato con un approccio più orientato al cliente.
Inoltre, il servizio ricevuto da Manuela è stato freddo, poco disponibile e privo di qualsiasi tentativo di trovare una soluzione o di mostrare comprensione. Mi sono sentito completamente abbandonato come cliente.
Non consiglio Locauto e sicuramente mi rivolgerò ad altre compagnie di autonoleggio in futuro.

Dear Marco,thank you for sharing your experience.
We are truly sorry for the stress this situation caused you, and we deeply regret that you felt our staff member's approach was cold and unhelpful. Providing a supportive and empathetic experience is very important to us, and we apologize that this was not your impression.
Please understand that, to validate a rental and authorize a driver, our company requires that all identification and driving documents be completely intact and undamaged in any part. This strict policy is in place because a damaged document can be contested by law enforcement during road checks, making it legally invalid for driving.
We sincerely regret that this policy prevented you from picking up your vehicle and caused such frustration. We take your feedback regarding customer care to heart, and we hope to have the opportunity in the future to show you the true quality and value of our service.

Full extras if you book at the desk

I booked the car at the desk. Although the car was there and available to collect immediately, the agent did not agree to let me hire the car unless I pay for the full set of extras (full insurance, fuel, cleaning).
It should be my choice which extras to select and pay for.

Dear Vladimir,thank you for sharing your feedback.
We sincerely apologize that your recent experience was not fully satisfying. Regarding walk-in or last-minute bookings at the desk, please note that these rentals are subject to the real-time available rates. Our desk packages and pricing are dynamic and fluctuate based on immediate fleet availability and current market demand, which can differ from standard online options.
That being said, we take your feedback seriously and will use it to continuously evaluate and improve our service and customer communication.
We appreciate your time and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a much better experience.

Plus 20% of the expected price.

There are two reasons for this low rating:
1. I didn't realize that I had essentially been forced to take out body insurance because the woman spoke very quickly and unclearly in English when I was checking in, and I misunderstood her offer after an early morning flight. I didn't need that insurance at all, and I only found out about it after I received a mail—by which time it was too late to change anything. When you sign a contract, you're essentially signing a blank space on a tablet without knowing how much it will cost you.
2. When you rent a car—especially a more expensive model—you don’t really expect to be charged extra for the built-in navigation system that can’t be turned off. Especially since these days, all smartphones have navigation features that are better than the built-in ones.

As a result, the overpayment amounted to more than 20%-25% of the expected price.

Update: Chiara, thank you for your comment. I apologize about the navigation. It’s true that Roadside Plus isn’t a navigation system, as I initially thought, but rather additional insurance. Yes, it might actually be useful. Nevertheless, in the future, I’d like to stick to the original offer as booked, without any additional options or offers at the time of picking up the car. I’d prefer to receive all options in advance (for example, at the time of booking) so that I can calmly assess whether I need them, rather than at the counter after flying in and standing in line.

Super simple, fast, and a fantastic car!

We used Locauto for a week-long rental, and the entire experience was fantastic. The pickup and drop-off processes were super simple and fast, with zero hassle or long waits. The Opel car we were given was amazing—clean, comfortable, and a joy to drive the entire week. Checkout was completely straightforward as well. Highly recommend Locauto for anyone looking for a smooth and reliable car rental experience!

Really pleased with Locauto Group at Cagliari Airport. The staff were friendly and helpful from start to finish, and made the whole pick-up and drop-off process quick and easy. They took the time to advise us properly on the best car extras, without any pushy upselling. The car itself was excellent for the price and more than we expected for what we paid. Would definitely rent from them again.

I Booked a VW Polo over Booking.com

I Booked a VW Polo over Booking.com. When I try to pick up my rental car they say it’s not Available.Although I have already paid for it !! Then they tell me we don’t got your car yet but you can have another with an extra fee , after discussing they give a other car and tell me i will not get Charged more. Then I wait over an Hour at the counter for the other Car . Then they try to sell me even more insurance , but I telled them I got the full Insurance Package over booking. I drove 300 km an when I refill my tank , I took 35 L!! And in the Bordcomputer stand the Average Consumption was 6 L . That says the Car was not full and I looked on my credit card Bills they booked 90 euros more because they try to charge me for an upgrade. It was the worst Rental Car service i have ever Experienced. Never again

Hello Tom, thank you for sharing your experience with Locauto in Olbia. We are sorry to hear that our service did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide an excellent experience for every customer, and we regret that we fell short in your case. We would like to clarify that estimated range and fuel consumption displays reflect driving style and efficiency rather than actual fuel levels. The true indicator is the fuel gauge itself, which displays the exact amount of fuel in the tank. Your feedback is very valuable to us and helps us continually improve our service.

Best car rental company in Italy!

Best car rental company in Italy!

We had a perfect experience! The car was excellent, clean, comfortable, and in perfect condition. The price was simply unbeatable. We compared many rental companies in Italy, and we couldn't find a better price anywhere.

The booking process was easy, the staff was friendly and professional, and everything went smoothly from pickup to return.

If you're looking for the best value for money, this is the company to choose. We highly recommend Locauto and will definitely rent from them again. Thank you for the excellent service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I felt I got taken advantage of a bit

I felt I got taken advantage of a bit. I had a certain rate with national but booked the wrong airport. When rebooking I was not permitted to use my corporate rate and got upcharged and forced into insurance. Also the car had some issues that I showed the agent at the return and she offered no compensation for the faulty car.
