" I copied Sixt email to AutoEurope on 20 June regarding issues with the rental but got no replies. I eventually called Auto Europe on the phone on 25 June (no reply to email still) and received a phone call back that morning. What I was told was that the Octavia and Corolla were both 'C' class vehicles, therefore the Octavia was classed the same as the Corolla; 'C' class. Sixt may put them in the same class but there are definitely not similar vehicles in terms of size or power. There is no way a Corolla and Octavia are equivalent. The Octavia is a far bigger and more powerful vehicle than the Corolla. The Octavia is ideal for Cyprus as it has steep inclines/declines of 8-11% and I had three passengers. I was not satisified with the fact that AutoEurope did not reply to my emails at all forcing me to follow up by phone. When I did follow up by phone, I would have thought that AutoEurope would have intervened on my behalf with Sixt to ensure I would get an Octavia or better when I arrived back to the rental desk. A delay of five days replying to emails is not great by any standards, I expected better. "
" CYcarhire vendor was Sixt. The expectation I had when arriving at the desk was a Skoda Octavia (as per image on my booking email). What I received was a Toyota Corolla Hybrid with a keyfob that would not lock the car. I was offered an upgrade for a fee/day but I declined. I would have thought that I should have been offered the upgrade for free as they didn't have an Octavia. I contacted Customer.Relations@sixt.com.cy on 20 June by email (Joanne Williams) and said I would be at the Paphos airport on 25 June and could I exchange the car for a Octavia. I provided my voucher number however, I never received any reply as to whether I could or not exchange vehicles. I copied this email to reservations@autoeurope.eu on 20 June but did not get any reply from AutoEurope either. Subsequently, I went to the airport on 25 June and spoke to the manager at the Sixt rental desk who very kindly agreed to my request. I must compliment him very much but criticise the non-reply to my email from Joanne Williams of Sixt and AutoEurope. I have to say that the Sixt rental staff on the ground in Paphos airport are great and customer service could learn a lot from them. "

" I have used autoeurope on several occasions and have never had any poor experiences with them. The rental company in Cyprus (Sixt) was the problem. They told me they were giving me a free upgrade, the car was not up to the standard I would expect from a hire company, plenty of scratches and marks on the bodywork, in car systems were outdated. "
" Sixt were the car hire company. I paid €133 to auto Europe for the hire car. At the desk I was required to pay another €146 and put a hold of €150 on my debit card because they would not accept blocking my wife's credit card. (No other hire car I've ever had has a problem with this. I would not recommend sixt to anybody unfortunately. This is my second poor experience with this company. "

" Convenient interface, usually unbeatable prices, overall extremely satisfied "
" Cars unusually old for Europcar level - mine had over 70,000 mileage and it's not an exception - last year they also gave a car with similar mileage. Otherwise, nothing to complain - reasonable prices (pick up in Larnaca with drop off in Pafos costed justes extra (E35), the rare company that operates 24h in Cyprus (others close quite way before the late flights arrive) "

" I was somewhat disappointed to learn that Autoeurope set up the car rental contract on a 'Full to Empty' basis. I only found this out when I arrived at the car rental desk. I was told that were I booking with Sixth direct then it would be on a 'Full to Full' basis. I was told that all the contracts from Autoeurope to Sixth in Cyprus was on 'Full to Empty' basis and they weren't able to change it. As I said, I was disappointed with that position. I believe Autoeurope's default fuel position should be a 'Full to Full' basis "
" I was satisfied overall but I could not get an answer from Sixth to a question I asked regarding a situation where the main driver was unable to drive the vehicle (due to illness). I made it clear that the main driver would not be able to go to the hire location. I wanted to know the procedure of how a second driver would be substituted then for the main driver. I did not get an adequate answer - I got a 'standard' answer which didn't answer the question. I'm sure that this situation cannot be unique in the industry and there surely is a procedure to deal with it. I would be delighted to know what the procedure is if ever I need to use it. "

" Overall not bad, but there was a HUGE NEGATIVE from SIXT "
" Hello! The last rental was in Sixt in Larnaca airport. That was a TOTAL SCAM from SIXT side. We booked the car with ZERO excess insurance. In our voucher was written about insurance with 0,00 excess, BUT SIXT manager wrote in contract 800 euro excess., She just explained us that we didn't understand a contract rules. WHY ? Why the SIXT manager break the rules of contract and change the excess amount!?? I count that as a SCAM from rental company. Staff name - Alexandra Borisova "

" Everything regarding the booking was excellent but the issue of extra insurance is confusing. I took the Super option when booking but when I met the Europcar staff they said I should have taken out the extra insurance with them as I would have difficulty claiming in the event of any issue arising. "
" When I arrived at the Europcar office they did not have the car I ordered. They offered to come to me to switch cars a day later but I opted to return the first car to the airport the following day myself and collect the car class I paid for. I was not offered a refund or anything for the inconvenience. I could not depend on Europcar to come to me to do the switch as I had a bad experience with them on my last holiday when they came to replace a faulty tyre which involved several return trips to their depot and delayed me several hours. Again on that occasion there was no offer of any kind to make up for the inconvenience. I was told a supervisor would call me later but that did not happen. If you wonder why I went back to Europcar sorry to say after many car rentals in Cyprus others were even more unreliable. "

" Last year i did use auto europe to rent a car in cyprus also, from sixt, no problem with this card. it was obvious this time that they wanted to find any invented reason to overcharge. "
" In 15 years of using my cards to rent cars (with autoeurope) everywhere in europe, middle east and US(not with auto europe :) ) , i have never had the problem of the people at the counter rejecting all 6 of my cards, despite the fact that i have ample amounts of money on them, just because it's not 'credit' card. I do not need a credit card, i have enough money :) I have use these (type of) cards forever, even in august this year with autoeurope in vichy france. This time, Europcar has insisted they will not use the card if it is not written 'credit' on it, regardless of how much money it has on it - all just so that they can overcharge another eur 130. (which was possible to be paid with the non credit card..) "

" There was a slight mark on the side of the car from rubbing against a bush on the side of the road. This would polish out - yet they charged ?50 euro.

" The car that I was given when I landed at Larnaca could only be described as a banger! It felt very unsafe to drive and the brakes did not feel like they were working very well. I had selected and paid for air conditioning but it did not work very well on this car either. I had to drive around with the windows open most of the time. I was left wondering if I would have received a better vehicle from Europcar if I had booked directly with them. I will never choose Europcar again. "

" The price was great and the booking went through without a problem. However when I arrived at larnaca airport I was told that the extra money I had paid on auto Europe to cover any excess I would be liable for with my car was invalid and I had to buy it from them! This pissed me off and would deter me from using auto Europe again, why advertise this super cover if europcar won't honour it? "
" Same thing as for auto Europe, why are their cars on auto Europe's website if the insurance paid for on auto Europe won't be honored? "
" Very good service and very helpful staff "
" Disgraceful and miss leading service which is put in place to swindle more money from tourists "
" The quality of car was good with low mileage and very clean. The Zero x/s option that was paid for, makes you think in the future. When SIXT say the zero x/s option was not "THEIR" ONE" and proceed to put a hold of 500 on the Visa card. The end result may be the same but as a marking tool, you question such practices in 2016 "

" The clutch was quite bad, there was no water for the wipers..it did not work,and I could not book the car for 31 days as I wanted on line..instead I had to book it for 30 and book it at a higher rate for 1 more day when I arrived as nobody could help me.. It only took 30 euro to fill the tank but I was charged 40..{ maybe that is just standard..} "
" The car I was given was not made ready for me! The water for the wipers was not spraying and in a hot dusty country you just need it it. I am a mature woman and the clutch made me sound like a hooligan, it was embarrassing and did not sound safe, I did ring to tell someone about this but the person I got was not helpful.. "
" despite me taken out top cover of insurance, i still had to leave a holding deposit of 535euro and pay 80euro holding deposit for fuel. i thought that was the reason for taken out the top insurance so you would not have to leave a deposit. to fill the car with fuel would only cost 45 euro "
