AVOID GOLDCAR Alicante - SCAM TACTICS
Charged €136 penalty due to THEIR unclear instructions and negligence!
Out-of-hours return: Tried to return car to Level 3 as instructed - area inaccessible/unclear. Left car safely on Level 4, photographed everything, emailed 5 photos immediately using email address provided by their Madrid support.
Their Alicante office:
Phone answered once then hung up (after "Hola")
4 more calls = only music playing
Emails completely ignored
No assistance when desperately needed
3 DAYS LATER: Received email from DIFFERENT email address claiming car "not returned" and charged €270 penalty!
After my detailed reply with photo evidence: They quietly refunded €134 (probably realized car WAS returned on time) but kept €136 claiming "wrong parking level."
The real problem:
Unclear return instructions (deliberate?)
Zero customer support when you need help
They ignore communications then claim YOU didn't return car
Only care about taking reservations, not solving problems.
This is a SCAM operation! Use literally ANY other rental company.
Evidence: I have all photos, emails, and call records documenting their negligence.
