All-inclusive rental cars in Catania
Compare rental cars in Catania (Italy) from 5 different car rental brokers. Cheap, all-inclusive & no hidden costs!
Our car rental brokers Cars For Less, RentalCars, Atlas Choice, Affordable Car Hire and Economy Bookings negotiate the best deals with all international and local car rental companies in Catania. Every broker has his own search form to check available rental cars.
Renting a car via our brokers is cheap and without unpleasant surprises: unlimited mileage, local taxes, airport delivery and almost all insurances are included in the quoted price. Compare their rental conditions.
The only extra insurance you may want is a No Risk Warranty to cover excess plus damage to tires, windows, roof and undercarriage. All brokers offer this insurance for a fair price: much cheaper than at the pick-up desk of the car rental company!
Excess insurance is mandatory because your own risk may already be covered by your travel insurance (including some credit card travel insurances).

Carmelo Muscat from Zebbug (Malta) rented a car (mini) in Catania from Avis and used the service of broker RentalCars. RentalCars gets a 3 (Good) and Avis a 3 (Good). Carmelo Muscat would use the service from RentalCars again but wouldn't rent a car from Avis again.
Booking the car
The website of RentalCars did not give enough information or the information is not correct:
There was a problem with this information: extra costs.
Comment: Poor - As i ended up renting a car without knowing the total cost of the car hire. Being a client the price is very important.
The voucher and the confirmation mail received from RentalCars after booking the car did provide sufficient and correct information:
Comment: Price was not in the voucher. They said that i paid 59 euro when in actual fact i paid around 64 euro. Also missing information about what costs i had to pay more.
Before picking up the car there has been contact with RentalCars (by mail, phone, live chat). How helpfull and friendly they were is rated:
Comment: They replied very quickly but it was useless as they said they were no hidden charges and i ended up with a charge of 3.00 euro per day.
Picking up the car
How easy was it to find the rental office/service desk from Avis:
How clear were the directions on the voucher from RentalCars:
Avis offered extra insurances.
The info the RentalCars provided on the voucher about not needing extra insurances was clear:
The staff at the pick-up office of Avis was friendly and helpfull:
Comment about other issues when picking up the car: I am really disappointed about the extra cost that i had to pay. This time it was just 3.00 euro per day. Next time could be more than this and i have no choice rather than to rent the car. First because i need the car. Second because even though i wanted to cancel the car i was going to be charged as it wasn't 48 hours prior my arrival.

The service Avis delivered:
We wouldn't rent a car from Avis again.
Comment: We just rented a car and I'd like to point out something. As per below please note that I asked if there were any hidden charges and you said no. I've been renting cars and usually they quote a fee and it includes everything except the one to waive the excess. When we went to rent the car amongst others they told us that we had to pay 3.00 Euro a day so that they would give us two telephone numbers just in case something happens and we had to call them. I mentioned the point that if for some reason the car doesn't work was it gonna be my problem, and they said yes. This is ridicules. So I ended up paying this fee. Recently the car hire company are doing charges on everything and I'm expecting that in a few weeks I would go to rent a car and find out that even to fix the steering wheel in the car I have to pay.
[note from the editor: The 3 euros a day extra you payed are no hidden charges. It looks like the staff of this rental company has found a new trick to 'earn' some more money, just like trying to sell excessive insurances. The best thing to do in such a situation is to call the customers service of the broker immediately, because that's the only moment they can be of any assistance. Unfortunately there is nothing they can do after you 'agreed' to pay extra to the rental company]
The service RentalCars delivered:
We would use the service of RentalCars again.
Comment: I want you to give more information about the what is included and what's not. You have very competitive prices but there are the hidden charges.
