Credit Card Wrongfully Rejected – Poor Handling at Bari Airport

Very disappointing experience with Automania at Bari Airport.

At pickup, I presented a valid credit card. The card has both credit and debit functionality, but with separate details and a proper credit account. The agent refused to accept it simply because the physical card also shows debit features.

This restriction is NOT stated anywhere in their payment policy.

I contacted DiscoverCars support on the spot. They verified my card and confirmed it should be accepted. They even tried to explain this directly to the Automania agent, who was uncooperative, rude, and frankly repulsive in their attitude.

As a result, I was forced to pay for their coverage unnecessarily.

This felt like an arbitrary rule and very poor customer service.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

We would like to clarify that, as stated in our Terms and Conditions, a valid credit card is required for the security deposit. In cases where a card is identified as a debit card or does not meet the required criteria, it cannot be accepted for this purpose. In such situations, the purchase of Full Insurance becomes mandatory in order to proceed with the rental.

These conditions are in place to ensure clear and secure handling of deposits and liability during the rental period.

We look forward to welcoming you again soon and ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable experience next time.

Review Automania

The car we received was good.
2 points of dislike:
- we didn't find the pick-up spot directly so we had to call 2 times. The woman was a bit annoyed and not always friendly in her reply to us.
- they keep the deposit blocked for more then a week after returning the car. We are still waiting...

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you were satisfied with the car provided.

We’re sorry that you experienced some difficulty locating the pick-up point and that the communication over the phone did not meet your expectations. Our team is thoroughly trained in delivering attentive and professional service, and we strive to ensure every interaction is clear, smooth, and satisfactory.

Providing an exceptional experience is very important to us. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon.

Regarding the deposit, please note that the release is initiated on our side at the end of the rental. However, the actual timing for the funds to become available again depends on your bank, and in some cases it may take several working days. If the amount is still blocked, we recommend contacting your bank directly for further clarification.

Thank you for your patience and for bringing this to our attention.

We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.

Great value for money

Great value for money! We rented cars from two different locations during our trip, and both times we got exactly what we booked. The staff were friendly, helpful, and treated us fairly throughout

Good value and convenient

The staff are nice and helpful and understand English. The checkin was quick as was the checkout. The pickup/dropoff is a very short walk from Pisa airport which is good.
Great value car rental and I will use them again.

Execelent

We rent a Polo from 11-4/20-4-2026.
Get the car from the airport very fast. (Employer Elena). The car was very clean inside and outside. They help us very well. There was a private problem with family and I told Automania staff they helped me so good. The car was rent on my name and I must go for private issue to an other country. The staff made a new contract and they charged nothing. Excellent staff. The car return was in a minute done. I give Automania a 10

Smooth pick up and drop off

Smooth pick up and drop off. I had full coverage option and no BS from a company side - they are not trying to offer something you don't want and does not try to charge you anything you didn't do.
I recommend!

Place to avoid

Only at the checkin they told me there is an additional charge to bill the rent to my company.

The car was dirty outside and inside.

No one answered to the official phone number and I tried several times.

No key box.

Opening hours not respected. 14:48 instead of 14:30. Result: I lost my train for few minutes (the train station is really close, about 200mt).

Dear Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

Regarding invoicing to a company, any applicable administrative fees are communicated at the counter in accordance with our rental terms and conditions. We regret if this was not clear in advance.

We are also sorry to hear that the vehicle did not meet your cleanliness expectations. All cars are prepared before rental, and we take such comments seriously in order to improve our internal processes.

Concerning the reported difficulties in reaching us by phone and the absence of a key box, we understand how this may have caused inconvenience.

Our opening hours are communicated as clearly as possible; however, occasional delays may occur due to operational reasons. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, especially the impact on your travel plans.

Your feedback is valuable and will be used to improve our service quality.

Kind regards,

Car was great, but office is hard to find

Car was great, friendly staff, no problems after returning the car. The location of the office is a bit off and hard to find though (It's not located inside the arrival hall of Catania Airport, but in a separate complex near Terminal C).

When we went to pick up the car we had…

When we went to pick up the car we had booked, they gave us a better car, a 2005 Toyota Auto X, brand new with 2,000 kilometers, everything was fine. The only thing that surprised me in the end was that they asked us for 20 euros to wash this small car.
