Vancouver Car Hire

Cons: Finnaly I did not rent the card due to they asked an additional insurance policy.

Pros: Good car, nice to drive, loads of space and great technology.

Cons: Bought Insurance online through Kayak only to be told that the car rental company don't accept it, and therefore I had to buy it again. Complete waste of money.

Pros: Inside of the car was clean But no car navigation and couldn’t connect music and Bluetooth

Cons: We waited for 2 hours and a half for picking up the car. I booked the car at 10 am but eventually we left at 12:30. It was not only us, everyone who booked around the time waited at least an hour.

Stressful

Cons: My credit card covers the rental insurance and I always use it without any problem worldwide. They did not accept our credit card insurance and made us call them and get a confirmation number. As we had to rush out, we decided to buy the insurance for $26 a day while we found out that there is a $1000 deductible even with the insurance. We asked for a 0 deductible option and they told us that it's not an option for "any car" as we chose and it only comes with "small car"!! The fuel tank was almost empty which added to the inconvenience. It was a stressful experience and cost us much more than we thought.

Worst Renting Experience

Cons: Apparently Ace has a partnership with d*********r in downtown Vancouver. The partner company in question was a nightmare! They said without a official English translation you’re not able to rent a car over there, while I was grabbing my translated drivers license, the branch manager showed up and said my translation wasn’t valid, that it was needed a ICBC translated license, they said it is in their company policy. When I asked for the hard copy of their policy the branch manager had bad attitude. So I asked for an email with the policy so I could read exactly where is my issue with this partner company. They wrote an one sentence email saying that’s company policy. What a joke! I called their provided number of ACE costumer service and unfortunately the only thing they did on the phone was ask if there was anything they could do. Honestly, he should do better, he couldn’t even get me the company policy in question. My complain is that at the d*********r website, there’s no request of the so called official translated drivers license. The partner company made ACE looks bad, really bad, they had a branch manager with horrendous attitude. Not providing the “policy” that they claim to be with the information and making you loose time over some very simple issue is a very serious problem in my view, but that’s just me am I right..? I just rented a car in another company as usual without any problems!

Mandatory insurance

Pros: The car was confortable

Cons: I am unsure with my insurance car company and with my credit car however they made me pay their own insurance ( policy of their company) which it increased a lot the total rent. I don’t like those kind of surprises, $20 extras per day!
