Charging up front for half a tank of petrol (for 5 days) is a rip-off, when it is virtually impossible to use up anything close to this amount of fuel on an island as small as Guernsey. I asked at...

Thank you for responding to our customer survey questionnaire the comments of which are noted.
Our fuel charge policy IS explained clearly on our website in our 'booking conditions and terms' which customers are asked to read carefully before accepting them (by ticking the 'agreed' box) prior to making payment for the rental reservation. I have below copied those details for you which explain the fuel policy that applies in the Channel Islands.
FUEL CHARGE POLICY
The policy for charging for fuel when renting vehicles in the Channel Islands with most car rental companies is factored on three specific items - approximate mileage which is calculated from fleet records, group of car / engine size and the relevant fuel prices at the time which can change weekly.
Europcar in the Channel Islands supplies HALF A TANK of fuel in every vehicle irrespective of the length of hire but have a different charge for each rental period for each type of vehicle. We therefore charge for UP TO and not necessarily the MAXIMUM of HALF A TANK of fuel. It is extremely unlikely considering the size of the islands that customers are likely to use a whole tank of fuel during their stay which is why we do not offer a ‘full to empty’ option. Because there are no re-fuelling facilities available directly on site at the airport or harbour in Jersey or Guernsey, previous and existing renters have indicated that they would rather not have the inconvenience of having to fuel or refuel a vehicle at the beginning or end of the hire which is why we do not offer a ‘full to full’ option. This therefore is the preferred and fairest method of charge to customers –you are NOT REQUIRED TO RE-FUEL THE VEHICLE. Please note we do not refund for fuel left in the vehicle at the end of the rental period.
I hope this clarifies. I am glad you liked the car supplied in Guernsey and hope that it enhanced the enjoyment of your visit to our island. Thank you for choosing Europcar as your preferred supplier, we look forward to the opportunity of being of service to you again in the near future.
Yours sincerely,

I was given a car with only 1/4 tank of petrol instead of half. I went back the next day to complain and was given the remaining petrol.

Thank you for responding to our customer service survey. All vehicles should be supplied with half a tank of fuel as stated. We apologise for this oversight on our behalf and I glad my team rectified this for you the following day. We look forward to being of service to you again in the near future.

I have nothing but praise for your Airport Staff. I unfortunately originally booked the car for the wrong date, which was not realised until i reached the desk. Their patience and charm in "sorting...
When we collected the car from Guernsey Airport, it was supposedly half full of petrol, but based on the amount of fuel we had to "replace" it was patently well short of this amount. I calculated at...
