  • A must watch if you are renting a car, bike, speedboat or anything in a foreign country. I had a terrible experience in Serbia when I rented a car at Belgrade Airport. Based on what happened, I can say the worst car agency at Belgrade airport is ‘AR Rent a Car’. Watch this video and you’ll come to know about the things you must know before renting a car anywhere in the world. How rental agencies try to trap their customers. So go through my experience to avoid such tourist scams while travelling.
    This video is a part of travel web series based on my trip to Serbia. I travelled from Delhi to Belgrade via Dubai availing the visa-free entry for Indians in Serbia for 30 days. Watch all the videos in sequence here bit.ly/MTserbia.... #TouristScam #Serbia #IndianinSerbia

    ABOUT ME
    I'm Varun.
    I am a full-time traveller now (yes, I quit my job to follow my dreams). I love solo travelling & meeting people. After travelling extensively in Incredible India for years, I stepped out of my country and realised, how beautiful the world is! I started making travel web-series in Hindi with full of travel tips and tricks, especially for budget travel and sustainable tourism. My dream is to inspire people to explore this beautiful world and learn the best things to make our world a better place to live in. I was awarded the prestigious 'National Tourism Award' by the Government of India for my contributions in the field of promotion of Tourism. Thanks to my viewers, because of whom now I get invitations from across the globe to visit their places and show them to the world.

    All I have to say is this Serbia is not Western Europe. I have had a similar experience in Hungary. At the time of car delivery they don't check and hurry. And while collection of the car they check with microscopic eyes and take money from Western European residents or citizens for no reason. It is not just the agency you showed, I was duped by Hertz at Budapest Airport for a lame "polishable" scratch. Ideally they shouldn't be charging for "polishable" scratch.
    My experience in EU (western EU) is this. They give the car, you take a video. Any scratch, you send them the pictures. That works.

    To be fair, I think "what if you scratch the car, while I am gone" is an offensive thing to say.
    Anyone would be offended by this, that gentleman too got offended. Even in India this would enrage a person. Dignity and self respect is important for everyone, more so in European countries where most things, transactions are trust based and not verified.
    Anyone who has been to Europe will relate.

    Very well done !! These rental companies keep your credit card details and can later charge your card for damages.

One of frnd had to pay £600 for damage under the car which he no could have checked before collecting.

    Varun ji ,
    He said ‘it may happen in your country’ because aaapne usko bola ki ‘What if YOU Scratch it’. Agar aap ye kehte ki ‘What if someone else scratches it ‘ then the response would have been a bit different. AAP directly uspe chale gaye . Intention galat nahi thi aapki lekin ek chor/sajjan insaan jo aapko service provide kar raha ho, usiko aap accuse karoge directly to conversation acha nahi hoga.
    That being said, it’s a very good video in terms of making people aware about how to inspect rental cars and be cautious with minute things!! Kudos to you.

If you feel like you need evidence, you go around and record it yourself so it comes handy. They deal with hundreds of people daily and give them the benefit of doubt.

    2. Take pics , videos before you sign off.
    3. Always get insurance, costs 20$ extra but definitely definitely worth it. Have first hand experience of an accident where car was written off.
    4. The big companies thrive on good name, they never misbehave, helpful and polite to the core.
    5. Always refuel before handing over, they charge premium rate for fuel if they have to refill.

    In the US and Canada, people pay collision damage waiver if they do not have own auto insurance . It is optional and not insurance and people who have insurance do not pay it. It is obviously what rental car companies want or they to try to harass in some way for not buying. The CDW is a way,however, to waive their rights to charge you for damage to a vehicle (yes, even if it is totaled but is subjective depending on car and value. You may be liable upto small amount too ) but this is only for damage to vehicle. You will have to get supplemental liability too (optional) for any third party claims that arise due to your fault which includes property damage and then of course personal medical insurance too for you and your passengers (optional).

He didnt have to walk with u to check again and he said he had other things to do which u didnt respect. This was AVIS which is a Global reputable car rental brand not and back yard car rental. You were trying to be oversmart which didnt go to well and thats why he said "that might happen in ur country but not here".

    It looks obviously clear that the first guy who handed the car to Varun was in a big hurry to hand over the car, probably thinking of scamming later while the car is returned, possibly pointing out some issues or scratches. So Varun was no way overreacting , he was truly being cautious and recording it completely. Thanks to him, he saved the day. It's very unfortunate incident to happen, but one needs to be careful renting a car be it India or abroad
