I had a really disappointing experience with this car hire service. At the pick-up desk, I was charged hidden fees that exceeded the total cost of my rental due to dropping off the car at the diffrent location. Additionally, my deposit has been frozen for five weeks. Despite sending numerous emails and spending hours on the phone, I have not received any resolution. I have been renting cars for 20 years and have never encountered such a poor experience before.

After vehicle return

After vehicle return, ACE claimed minor cosmetic scratches and charged 4,500 PLN. The amount is completely disproportionate to the alleged damage. When asked to justify the repair cost, they provided only their own internal estimate and debit note, without a convincing explanation why such a small cosmetic issue would require such an expensive repair.

We also obtained a quote from an official Opel dealer for replacement, and the amount offered was around 450 PLN.

Most concerning was that the charge was captured while the matter was still disputed.

Be extremely careful with return inspection, photos, and card holds.

Ace car hire

Searched Florence airport for Ace and ended up getting a taxi as it was not located with all the other companies.
The car was cheap to hire but it was dirty, inside and out, smelled of stale cigarettes with a ripped and broken gear stick cover. Would NEVER use this company again and do not recommend them at all. Pay more and stick to the big names. Shoddy bunch

Hello Janice,
Thank you for sharing your experience at our Firenze airport location. It is disappointing to hear you had to take a Taxi to the location as they offer a free shuttle service.

Your comments have been shared directly with the location to be investigated and addressed. If there is anything further you would like reviewed, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at customercare@acerentacar.com. -Emily

Do not rent with ACE!!!!

Online the price was $98 without tax I get there and they don’t have the vehicle so basically they upgraded me and I had to pay for the upgrade then they forced you to get insurance. I paid that too. My total was 460 for three days. I leave the place I catch a flat tire I pay to get that repaired and when I get back, I explained that to them and they tell me it’s not covered by their insurance. It is my responsibility and charge me another $296. The receipt had all these fees that no one ever told me about. I contact them they gave me another person to contact Dave Cook who is another scammer! My husband is a mechanic and this man tried to tell me that the tire isn’t repairable meanwhile I drove the vehicle for the remaining 2 days after I rented it with no issue. This company is a SCAM they rent you a vehicle force insurance on you and the insurance doesn’t cover anything at all!!!! Save your money and rent somewhere else! I wish I had read these reviews sooner!

Horrible experience being charged after we checked out car. At check out we were told car is all ok, only to be charged around £500 few days later for damage. BTW the damage were dots looking like dirt, that were not brought to our attention on check out and were also present on photos from previous user. This is not an honest company. Looks like we will need to go through credit card company. Waste of time and unnecessary stress and frustration! DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM.
