Freemans Bay (Auckland) car hire reviews and directory
We booked a one way rental. While there was a budget rental office at the Auckland airport only the downtown office did one way rentals. When we booked we were told there was a shuttle from the airport. This was definitely not true and we had to pay $180nzd and take a 30 minute drive to get to the budget rental office. That was a very unpleasant surprise after flying around the world with three young kids! I will avoid budget in the future because of that.
We picked up the car from Ace rentals all was good until drop off. Either from Kayak or Ace we were given the wrong drop off information. The address given on our instructions was not where the Ace drop off was. It was one street over. We tried the 800 number they gave but unknown to us that is not a New Zealand number but some sort of international code. Because of this we were outside of our Canadian phone contract. It took several times to get through costing us over $100 cdn dollars in phone charges. Is there any chance for help on these charges I can provide any additional info if needed.

I made a simple request to shift my pick-up time from 10 AM to 8:30 AM, but the entire experience turned into an incredibly frustrating ordeal, and the request was ultimately not fulfilled. Instead of providing a straightforward solution, I was asked to call the shop directly to make the adjustment myself. Despite multiple attempts, no one answered the call. Left with no choice, I went to the shop in person, hoping to resolve the matter. Unfortunately, the experience worsened. I was attended to by an Asian lady who outright refused to assist me. Instead of addressing my concern, she directed me to call another number within their company, even though I was already physically present at their office. It felt utterly unreasonable that I, as the customer, was being burdened with the responsibility of chasing down a resolution while standing right there. What added to the unpleasantness was the way I was treated. The lady’s tone and choice of words were far from respectful or professional. Rather than offering help, her demeanor left me feeling dismissed and disrespected. This level of service was shocking and unacceptable. After this ordeal, I happened to come across reviews on Google, and it became clear that my experience was not an isolated case. The negative feedback from others now makes perfect sense to me. It's disheartening to see such poor service and lack of accountability, especially when dealing with a request as simple as a slight adjustment to a pick-up time. This has been an eye-opening experience, and I hope the management takes serious steps to improve.
