I was charged an extra €50 to travel between Latvia and Lithuania, although I returned the car to the original pickup location. I was also required to contact my insurance company and have a proof of liability insurance emailed to them to avoid another €50 charge.

The car was almost brand new, and it was very nice. In fact, everything was fine except for the initial pick-up. There was no instruction about calling Green Motion prior to the pick-up, so we went to the pick-up point only to find nothing and no one. We finally found a telephone number for Green Motion on the Internet, and discovered that we were supposed to call them 30 minutes prior to the pick-up point, which was downtown, so they could bring the car over. By the time we did all this, we had walked all over the place, and wasted 45 minutes. Once we got in touch via phone, everything was quite fine. In the future, if the pick-up point is anywhere but the airport, the instructions must say to call in advance and provide a local phone number.

Rude staff, lack of communication, and a surprise $900 deposit that will stay with them for 10 BUSINESS DAYS! They won’t release the charge to have the funds back faster even though the vehicle was brought back spotless! This kind of company policy should be explicit on Kayak website!

I was asked to pay an extra 200 euro at the desk for the rental as the intermediary company used was a United States one and for certain reasons (embedded deep in their tncs as I was shown) i was told I pay 200 more or I can’t take the car. This is so frustrating and annoying. The rental company Green Motion should not be using intermediaries that evidently are tricking potential renters. The price quoted should be all in (with exception if you want further insurance or to reduce the premium). This was highly frustrating and very unfair.
