Recent Car Rental Recommendation

Be careful of Green Motion Car Rental. Their rates are very good but the one time I used them, the representative misrepresented the facts of the situation. (Ah, he lied.) Thankfully, the credit card company reversed his false charge.

My beef with virtually all of the car rental agencies in Mexico is that they refuse to acknowledge the credit card's built-in insurance. Armed with a letter written in Spanish from the credit card company, I had been able to convince one other company without incident to acknowledge that we had adequate insurance. The -- ahem -- gentleman, at Green Motion acknowledged that we had adequate insurance ... but then proceeded to charge for insurance anyway and denied any such agreement we had to the contrary, all the while feigning the same cordiality that he exhibited initially when I rented the car. I have been told that courtesy is more important than honesty in Mexico. I originally thought it was just a joke.
