Ordered 2 days before receipt on August 24.2017 on the Cars-Scanner website. com car. I was looking for the cheapest, but with a machine gun for a period of 14 days in Slovenia at the Ljubljana airport (to pick up and return in one place) for 1 driver. The choice fell on "Volkswagen Golf or equivalent SMALL CAR". Of all the companies presented on the site, the cheapest option was the company Inter rent (the difference in price with evropcar is 2 times, where the lowest price was 24 thousand for “VW POLO 1.2 AC or similar”< strong>).

The booking was confirmed immediately upon ordering, I transferred 11.643 rubles from a Sberbank DEBIT card. A voucher came in which it was MANDATORY to print it out, which I did.

While there was time on the way to Moscow, I read a lot of non-forest reviews about the Inter rent company, about how they were ripped off, and I was very very worried.


The voucher indicated the time of arrival of the aircraft, and the time of receipt / delivery of the car. On August 26, at the Ljubljana airport (fortunately it is very small), I immediately found an office (1 minute), where the manager was already waiting for me with documents, who copied my rights (they didn’t ask for other documents), I put my signatures on pieces of paper, he blocked the CREDIT card the amount of 1200 euros, told (moreover, I understand / speak English very poorly, but I understood everything) about all the nuances (it took no more than 8 minutes): in particular:

  • the money for the vignette will be withdrawn from the amount of the deposit (in Slovenia they take from everyone for using toll roads (you either run around looking for where to buy it yourself, or you just pay at the office. The price is the same, but in the office there are no problems with finding and correct gluing), and you travel around the country without encountering toll booths, unlike in Italy, Croatia, Russia).
  • specified what would happen if we left the territory of Slovenia for Croatia and Italy - he answered that he would need to call the phone number indicated on the piece of paper, and then they would debit the amount from 12 to 60 euros for leaving Slovenia.
  • And then he took me to the underground parking, where there was a NEW MERCEDES!! ! DIESEL!!! ! with a little more than 5 thousand miles. km (only run-in passed) and the smell of a new car in the cabin. I was delighted with the new shiny toy. I immediately examined it all, found a small chip of paint on the door, photographed it, showed it to the manager - he immediately put it on a piece of paper, saying that it was nonsense, but if it was important to me, he would make a note.

    I didn’t experience any inconvenience using this car, only I fell head over heels in love with it, if I’m going to change my horse, then for the Merc i200. But I confess that they never figured out the car radio....everything was once (although the radio was turned on a couple of times)... maybe there was a navigator there... but I inserted an Internet card bought at the airport for 10 euros into my iPhone 4 GB (sold at all gas stations and other public places without a passport), and she plowed for 17 days tirelessly, showing either roads or cartoons to children, and even in Italy and Croatia. And the "unlimited" tariff connected to MTS - could not open either Google maps even once, or get in touch - everything hung up (I just spent money in vain, I regret this service).


    My friend rented a car for 3 days (with a change of driver), because I left earlier, and she still stayed (until the time of booking, she could not decide whether she would need a car or not). We just made a phone call and agreed that on September 8 (the time of the expiration of my first contract), we would come and re-register the papers. By phone, we postponed the meeting 2 times (from 15 to 20 hours), because we decided to go shopping in the last hours....and the manager was waiting for us patiently (their working day ends at 18.00....)

    The update took 5 minutes. He just entered it, and announced the amount of extra. rent.

    A friend rented a car, having vacuumed it the day before for 1.5 euros at a gas station in Ljubljana, and rinsing it with water from a 5-liter canister (the place where the tokens for washing were sold was closed on the weekend, and she fantasized as best she could). Returned the car with a full tank. I rented it out for 5 minutes (we quickly looked that everything was fine), and she paid with my credit card (on which the money was blocked), because by that time she had already spent all her money... It should be noted that the blocked money came in 3 days!! ! .

    My travel expenses in Slovenia for only 17 days with a change of driver, mileage 2780 km:

    1. Car rental 1.643 rubles.

    2. Vignette 3358 rubles (47.16 euros for 17 days).

    3. Additional rent 3 days / driver change 2986 (41.94 euros).

    4. Gasoline ONLY 8841 rubles.

    5. Parking 5200 rubles.

    6. Toll roads Croatia-Italy 11.890 rubles.

    We were not charged any extra money for traveling outside the country, for high mileage!! ! .

    For my son, I specially brought a booster from Russia so as not to pay an additional 2.100 rubles for rent and a special restraint device for a seat belt. She left everything there (because buying from us is cheaper than renting there).

    I am satisfied with the company through which I ordered, and which provided the car with transparency of relations, no deception, no extra money was attributed anywhere, they worked clearly, promptly, responsively, patiently waited for us and answered all questions.
