It s best to avoid this rental company
DEMESIO SUKCIAI ATTENTION SCAMS ACHTUNG BETR GER Panek rental company is a fraud I highly recommend that you first read customer reviews about the company The situation is as follows Via car rental booking ref 752003376 at Kaunas airport I didn t receive the car I ordered I ordered an automatic - I got a manual but the price is acceptable Rent for the week of 10 07 24-17 07 24 rent for 76 19 GBP and additional insurance 46 49 GBP I want to say that the car returned perfectly clean and tide Unfortunately it is not possible to check-in at the rental point Call to Vilnius open automatic gates and missing 30 min During work around 09 30 in the morning nobody was there I left the car at the office door took the ignition keys into the designated box and calmly flew home to the UK Surprise 26 08 24 1237 02 or 1400 disappears from my account I m trying to contact you by phone it s absolute rudeness He doesn t know what s wrong and doesn t give information over the phone He recommends writing letters to When I contacted I was told I was speeding driving irresponsibly and the 1400 euro deposit would not be cash back to me the car is back to rent office perfect in summary since when can car rental companies in LT chase people They perform the functions of the road police As far as I understand the rental car itself is also equipped with a tracker radar and I still don t know what I still have full protection no stress insurance I ordered it for the stolen 1237 02 GBP cash claim for compensation I warn you once again to avoid these legal thieves I travel all over the world and there is no such practice anywhere There is another term in the legal system moral damage But 100 crying customers do not make an effect for them Stolen money on an international scale compensates for everything DEMESIO SUKCIAI ATTENTION SCAMS ACHTUNG BETR GER don t be fooled it s just a nice advertisement

took 417 as a excess fee
It s best to avoid this rental company at all costs Despite being in my own country I was a victim of discrimination simply because I hold a British driver s license Panek charges the highest additional insurance fees if you don t have a Polish license which raises the price to that of a premium vehicle I rented a car from them only because it was late and no other rental companies at the airport had any cars available There s no mention of the requirement to purchase their full insurance anywhere in the rental agreement It s simply a scam As for the car there was another surprise I always rent cars with a manual transmission because I ve never driven an automatic But in the middle of the night in the center of Warsaw I had to learn how to drive one because they didn t have any manuals available It wasn t safe or pleasant The car had no windshield washer fluid but it was full of trash inside Embarrassing Another issue was the car s appearance The vehicle was covered in a hideous Panek car-sharing advertisement that was simply revolting They should pay people to drive around in something like that though I wouldn t take the offer an adult looks ridiculous and laughable in a rolling ad Lastly their logo Have you seen Panek s logo and mascot What is it A chicken A penguin Whoever is in charge of this company s marketing should rethink this Panek First and last time Well done You certainly know how to do business and attract customers

NEVER EVER USE THIS COMPANY
took 417 as a excess fee - we have a vidio of the car when we picked it up and when we dropped it off but they refuse to give me my fee back I have called and the rep said initially my money would be refunded i must wait - one week went by so i called again - he said they would email me - another week and told him i m back in Czech soon and i will pay him a visit so we can sort this out He huffed and Puffed and said what do you want me to do pay myself work for nothing you must email any complaint He obviously has some mental health problems - so i left it at that so i m down 417 the cost to hire their cars are too good to be true and now i know why keep away
