It can be a daunting task trying to rent a car, but when you find a website that looks honest and appears to list all the costs upfront before you make your reservation, you feel like you want to do business. But don't make that mistake with Sixt Car Rentals, especially if their website tells you the third party insurance is included in the total price of your car rental.
When you get suckered in to pick up your car (as I was) you'll find the third party insurance is NOT included as promised on the website and will in reality more than double the price of the entire rental! In my case they wanted $1200.00 more for the insurance alone on top of the $588.00 they listed on the website! Rip-off grande in Tijuana!
There was a very nice lady at the counter who took quite a bit of time placing a number of calls in an effort to get her supervisors to honor the sales pitch on their website - but to no avail! I actually felt sorry for her having to face customers who are lured in under false pretenses as I was, but I'm afraid that's her lot in life as long as she works for SIXT - a company that clearly lacks the integrity to advertise honestly or keep its word to potential customers.
If you're tempted to do business with Sixt Car Rentals as I was, do yourself a favor: stick out your thumb and catch a reliable ride!
