Perfect rent service with fair prices

It was not our first time in Athens.
We rented a car with Exer in 2023 and were selecting between different providers 2 months before our trip. We read many reviews from other travelers about various companies. I have 25+ years of driving experience with a spotless accident history. I could not believe in all these 700+ euro deposits for any car. We started our negotiation with Exer and agreed to have a full insurance package + a small deposit.
We rented a car from August 12 to August 22. The shuttle service was great, customer service was good. We even got a bigger car for the same price. We got a new tidy car - nothing to complain about.
When we returned this car everything was also fine: quick check and the unlock of the deposit.
I will definitely choose Exer company next time.

Disappointing

We were initially provided with a car larger than requested. We were told that they would need to exchange it after a week. That car lasted about 10 minutes before we gad to return it to the depot due to a fault. They exchanged the car for a smaller car and said they would email the paperwork but we never received it. The car was initially ok however when we went to fill the car with fuel as it was given to us with a third of tank the petrol inlet was damaged and we were unable to insert the fuel nozzle. On contacting Ever they were unhelpful and unsympathetic. Basically we had to sort it ourselves. Poor service and poor quality cars

deposit not returned

The car was a Citroen not the Toyota that was being advertised, but that is not my reason for rating 2 stars instead of higher. I have still not received my deposit back. I did write to the Catalonia Hire centre to ask why it was taking so long but have not heard back from them.

Good service.

The people at the desks where very helpful and helped us sort out transfers when our flight was delayed with no hassle. Also quick to hand back the car and a quick transfer back to the airport. Also quick to transfer the deposit back on to my card. Not the cheapest and the car was mediocre but it was the peak season to be fair. Would still recommend because of the good hassle free service.

Bad feeling…

Besides of no transfer from the airport, the wrong category car, extra costs for speeding and a very arrogant person at the desk, was the transfer back to the airport good. This was the last time that we rented a car at your company. It is no problem for me to pay for what I did wrong, but get money out of my pocket this way is totally wrong. The guy at the desk had one job as far as I know and that is try to get as much money at the most arrogant way from the client and never listen to what he had to say. After contact with the headoffice of Exed cars, they decided to pay me the money for speeding back. Thanks for that.

Don't trust this company.

Don't trust this company.
It was terrible, because they didn't accept my international insurance (black credit card).
The rental Price was $259.50 I needed to pay for other insurance - $295.93 (Total
$555.43).
The rental service is provided by a subcontractor named "RJ CAR Rental (5780 Hoffner Ave, Orlando FL)"
Very sorry about this company.

Be careful!!!!

We booked a car online. When we pickup the car we have to pay more to get the car. In the internet they didn't mention anything about the insuranse we have to pay 140euros more to get the insurance for the car. There wasnt even any option to get the insurance straight from exer, only the insurance from discovercars. So people will take the insuranse from discovercars because everybody wants to have somekind of insurance to protect their back. So dont take this insurance from discovercars, take the insurance straight from exer!!!

Very good experience, highly recommended

My pick-up appointment from Kalamata airport was right on time. The service by the office staff that I was offered was quick and professional, while the car I was given was in a good condition. I am quite happy and I will use again Exer.

Great experience

The woman who assisted us was very helpful and kind, everything was great. Although we had to wait some time, cause before us there was an annoying/disturbing client, she did her best to assist him, even tho they were totally rude to her without reason. Her “smile” during this encounter was not interrupted, which showed professionalism and she apologized for this incident (which was unnecessary!).
