GOLDCAR - SCAM

I booked a rental car at GOLDCAR (Mallorca airport) via DoYouSpain. Although this site gets great reviews be careful with it because this looks like just an ordinary searching site. You deal with the rental service and NOT with DoYouSpain. DoYouSpain is collecting the money however when you have issues you cannot contact them. So it is better to look for the reviews of GOLDCAR at Tripadvisor or Trustpilot.
Issues getting the car at the airport:
1. Paying EXTRA for an unnecessary insurance of € 360 which was not in the on-line price and I certainly didn’t want.
2. Paying EXTRA for the fuel charge of € 94 because the fuel is NOT included in the online-price (lesson learned on my side do not let them fool you with the lowest price this one I should have read in the small letters of the contract).
3. The online reserved car was not there.
4. Arguing about the above issues was nearly impossible because the pretty looking GOLDCAR-lady hardly spoke any English which is really awkward at an international airport.

My rental price was more than DOUBLED due to the EXTRA amounts I had to pay above the agreed on-line price. This undermines the trust people should have in each other or in companies. This feels like a SCAM. Be warned and look for a more trustworthy rental car-service then GOLDCAR.
