I booked the car via Discover Cars. The pick up was very quick. The car was nice - it was a new Volkswagen T-cross. Deposit was returned within few hours.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The questions for the stuff the rent company needed was direct. The whole process went smoothly and I got the reasons for every step. The only thing that didn't work was the sending of the documents of the rental car. I only had a black and white copy but still I haven't gotten the colorful document.

I was basically robbed of 150 EUR. In case one does not want to pay extra car insurance (150 EUR / 6 days rental) they ask for a deposit collateral of 800 EUR which is ONLY payable via short loan CREDIT card. Debit card or cash are NOT accepted! And now hold your breath. If I accepted the extra insurance they are ready to make an exception and I could pay the deposit ( now 200 EUR) via a debit card! As a bonus I was rudely reminded several times that I do not have to rent the car ( for which I already paid the rental fee via online booking), rental voucher from thrifty was issued with a wrong pickup address, did not get the child seat I asked for and after I overtook the car they let me wait 10 minutes in the garages before someone opened the gate. Effective blackmail on someone who had family with kids waiting around the corner. Shameful!

The location in Google is wrong - it is neither in Av. Jardines del Duque nor Plaza Playas del Duque; it is in the Hertz office in Av. de Bruselas near corner with Av. de Moscu. I rented via Jet2holidays including prepaid excess waiver insurance (it is an Axa policy). That means Thrifty needs to hold a credit card deposit of EUR670; if anything happens then Thrifty take your excess and you reclaim from the insurance policy afterwards. An alternative is to pay Thrifty EUR14 (for that size of car) and there would be no need to claim the insurance. Although I didn't need to make a claim, hindsight says the latter is preferable to avoid hassle when back home. I got a Hyundai i20 as class B - nice little runner & clean. Staff were pleasant and easy to deal with. As with any car hire, it is worth checking the car thoroughly when picking up - bring a torch to help inspection in the dark car park.

Unfriendly saleswoman, seems like we (from Germany) were not welcome. According to the contract, the handover would be on a Saturday at 8:30 a.m., but the seller wanted us to hand over the car on Friday at 4 p.m.

Unfreundliche Verkauferin, scheint so als waren wir (aus deutschland) nicht willkommen gewesen. Ubergabe laut Vertrag ware an einem Samstag um 8:30, Verkauferin wollte allerdings schon das wir am freitag 16 uhr das auto abgeben sollen.

BE WARNED! Dont join the sea! Only after money, they will cheat you right in front of you. Blame me for a defective (clutch) car while I only drove it 197 kilometers NORMALLY and paid 240 euros for 3 days rent!!! If other people view the car as . then you are the person addressed if you are the last to drive the car. They take your deposit (1080) and more. In addition, 0 empathy, no service if your car breaks down and just pointing the finger that it is your fault. They just leave you on a dangerous road and say they cant do anything for you. You can figure it all out yourself. They should never have rented out this car. What was supposed to be a wonderful holiday ended with a downer, so do you also want to sleep poorly during or after your holiday? Its especially nice to work with Thrifty. A car rental company should take care of you so that you really go on holiday or have gone on holiday, but they know nothing about that.

BE WARNED! Niet mee in zee gaan! Alleen maar uit op geld, ze belazeren je waar je bij staat. Geven mij de schuld van defecte (koppeling) auto terwijl ik er maar 197 kilometer NORMAAL mee gereden heb en 240 euro voor 3 dagen huur betaald heb!!! Als andere mensen de auto als . behandelen dan ben jij de aangesproken persoon als je als laatste de auto rijdt. Ze pakken je borg (1080) af en meer. Daarnaast 0 inlevingsvermogen, geen service als je auto dus stuk is en alleen maar vingertje wijzen dat het jouw schuld is. Ze laten je gewoon op een gevaarlijke weg staan en zeggen dat ze niks voor je kunnen doen. Je mag het allemaal zelf uitzoeken. Deze auto hadden ze nooit mogen verhuren. Wat een mooie vakantie moest zijn is dus afgelopen met een domper dus wil jij ook slecht slapen tijdens of na je vakantie? Vooral lekker met Thrifty in zee gaan. Een autoverhuurbedrijf hoort je te ontzorgen zodat je echt op vakantie gaat of bent geweest maar daar weten ze hier niks vanaf.

They are scammers. I made a prepaid reservation which I modified three times. The company confirmed the refunds by email and now they tell me that they will not refund me anything. I do not recommend it to anyone.

Booked with all-inclusive insurance via CHECK24, but we had to pay an additional all-inclusive insurance for 20 per day on site because we only had a debit card instead of a credit card. Otherwise we wouldnt have gotten the car. Furthermore, we were treated extremely unfriendly. I hope the 150 deposit for the key will be paid back quickly.
Translation
Uber CHECK24 mit all inklusive Versicherung gebucht jedoch mussten wir Vorort zusatzlich all inklusive Versicherung fur 20 pro Tag zahlen, da wir nur eine Debit Karte statt Kreditkarte hatten. Sonst hatten wir das Auto nicht bekommen. Des Weiteren wurden wir uberaus unfreundlich behandelt. Hoffe die 150 Kaution fur den Schlussel wird zugig zuruck uberwiesen.

Had no problems at all. Booked via Check24 for a very reasonable price with all conceivable insurance included. Small deposit was blocked (not collected) on my credit card (not debit card) and released again on the return day. The fact that debit cards are not accepted was noted several times at Check24 when booking... so giving a bad rating is stupid. No insurance was tricked into me when I picked up the car... I was only offered an upgrade in the car class, which you can of course politely decline if you dont want it. The vehicle was a bit older but it was drivable and completely fine. When we handed it over, an employee took a quick look at it to make sure nothing was majorly broken (a few small scratches dont bother anyone) and that was it. No complaints from me. You get what you booked here.
Translation
Keinerlei Probleme gehabt. Uber Check24 gebucht fur einen sehr gunstigen Preis mit allen erdenklichen Versicherungen inkludiert. Geringe Kaution wurde auf meiner Kreditkarte (nicht Debitkarte) blockiert (nicht eingezogen) und am Ruckgabetag noch wieder freigegeben. Das keine Debitkarten akzeptiert werden wurde bei Check24 mehrfach angemerkt beim buchen... deswegen ne schlechte Bewertung geben ist damlich. Mir wurden keine Versicherungen aufgeschwatzt bei der Wagenabholung... einzig ein Upgrade der Wagenklasse wurde mir angeboten was man naturlich dankend ablehnen kann wenn man es nicht mochte. Das Fahrzeug war schon nen Moment alter aber es war fahrtauglich und vollig in Ordnung. Bei Abgabe hat ein Mitarbeiter kurz druber geschaut das nichts grobes kaputt ist (paar kleine Kratzer storen hier niemanden) und das wars schon. Keine Beanstandungen meinerseits. Man bekommt hier das was man gebucht hat.

Everything worked wonderfully and problem-free. Ordered a Toyota Yaris (according to the offer or similar) and got a new VW Polo, good. Also hand it over nicely and smoothly to the boys in the underground car park. The 400 deposit was credited back on the same day! What more do you want?

Everything went smoothly. No additional insurance was forced on me. I was also able to pay the deposit easily using my debit card. After I dropped it off, I got it back after a few days. When I picked it up I also received a damage report. We got a Hyundai i10. The car was very clean and very well equipped for the price. Overall, the car rental company left me with a professional impression.
Translation
Es lief alles reibungslos ab. Es wurden mir keine zusatzlichen Versicherungen aufgezwungen. Die Kaution konnte ich auch problemlos mit meiner Debit Karte hinterlegen. Nach der Abgabe habe ich diese dann auch nach wenigen Tagen wiederbekommen. Bei der Abholung habe ich ebenfalls ein Schadensprotokoll bekommen. Wir haben einen Hyundai i10 bekommen. Das Auto war sehr sauber und fur den Preis sehr gut ausgestattet. Insgesamt hat die Autovermietung einen professionellen Eindruck bei mir hinterlassen.

I was pressured to take out insurance because I would be liable for the deposit amount, even though I dont have a deductible through CHECK24. It was claimed that this wasnt true at all and that I would be stuck with the costs in the event of damage. Then the woman became quite rude and told us to hurry up with loading strollers etc. as they all finish work at 12. The return and the car itself were ok
Translation
Mir wurde Druck gemacht eine Versicherung abzuschliessen, da ich uber die Kautionssumme haften wurde, obwohl ich uber CHECK24 keine Selbstbeteiligung habe. Es wurde behauptet, dass das gar nicht stimmen wurde und ich auf den Kosten im Schadensfall sitzen bleiben wurde. Dann wurde die Frau recht unfreundlich, dass wir uns mit dem einladen von Kinderwagen etc. beeilen sollen, da sie alle um 12 Feierabend haben. Die Ruckgabe und das Auto selber waren ok

After we had suffered damage with a car picked up at Tenerife airport, we reported here and told what had happened to us, and how to proceed. The employee present was very arrogant and I had to put my car in the garage, which I did after searching myself. where the entrance was done and saw that they had a workshop in a corner where no one was, eventually I went to the cheerful man upstairs and he started telling me again in his arrogant way that I had to go back to the workshop Not asked by him how we were now, he reported that there was another same car, but my wife did not want it because we had first booked a Toyota Yaris and had received a Renault Megane, she wanted a smaller car as ordered. he couldnt and he didnt have it, so we said we didnt want another car for the remaining 3 days. Then he suddenly conjured up a smaller car from his hat, which we took with us. With our intention never to rent from Triftty Hertz again

Nadat wij schade hadden gereden met een op de luchthaven van Tenerife opgehaalde auto wij ons hier gemeld en verteld wat ons was overkomen, en hoe nu verder de aanwezige medewerker was zeer arrogant en ik moest mijn auto in de garage zetten dat heb ik na zelf zoeken waar de ingang was gedaan en zag daar dat zij in een hoek een werkplaats hadden waar niemand was uiteindelijk ben ik naar de vrolijke man boven gegaan en die begon mij weer op de zijn arrogante manier te vertellen dat ik weer terug moest naar de werkplaats Niet gevraagd door hem hoe het nu met ons was melde hij dat er een andere zelfde auto was maar die wilde mijn vrouw niet omdat wij ten eerste een Toyota Yaris hadden geboekt en een Renault Megane mee hadden gekregen zij wilde graag een kleinere auto zoals besteld dit kon niet en had hij niet waarop wij hebben gezegd dan geen andere auto voor de resterende 3 dagen meer te willen Toen toverde hij ineens wel een kleinere auto uit zijn hoge hoed die wij maar hebben meegenomen Met voor ons het voornemen nooit meer bij Triftty hertz te huren

Everything went great, pickup and return of the vehicle was problem-free. The vehicle was unwashed, but that is absolutely not a problem for me. Interior was cleaned. However, you should understand some English, otherwise communication could be a bit difficult. I had booked the complete insurance package with Sunny.car without any deductible, thats what I always do...it saves a lot of stress and doesnt cost much more!!!!!
Translation
Alles Super geklappt, problemlose Abholung und Ruckgabe des Fahrzeugs. Fahrzeug war ungewaschen, aber dass ist absolut kein Mangel fur mich. Innenraum war gereinigt. Etwas Englisch sollte man allerdings verstehen, sonst konnte es mit der Kommunikation etwas schwer werden. Ich hatte das komplette Versicherungspaket ohne Selbstbeteiligung bei Sunny.car gebucht, dass mache ich immer so......das erspart viel Stress und kostet nicht viel mehr !!!!!
