### 2/5 — Only think for customer

*2026-07-06, version 22.0.1*

It’s just a customer oriented app thinks only for customer benifits not for host take 40% margin just little money left with host also only 250-300 km should be free then there should be a charge of 10-12 rupees per km you cannot take out service and maintenece cost

### 3/5 — Filters are not efficient

*2026-05-10, version 20.7.0*

I tried for airport delivery, but when I tried to book it’s not working as expected. Some cars are not available for airport delivery but still it’s getting listed.

### 2/5 — BHIM upi option not available

*2026-05-09, version 20.7.0*

Need more upi options

### 3/5 — Non resident booking difficulty

*2026-02-02, version 20.0.1*

Since I am a non resident, I found it very hard to book without validating through the digilocker process.

### 3/5 — Car rental experience

*2026-01-23, version 19.7.0*

Rental experience was just okay. My first time car rental went smoothly but I had to cancel the booking multiple times recently due to non availability of vehicle.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2026-01-09, version 19.6.0*

I had booked Zoom Car from Nagpur Airport, Host never responded for car delivery and there is no way you can get hold of Zoom Car customer service. Hosts kept cancelling the booking stating their cars are not in good condition. Pls do not use Zoom Car

### 3/5 — Refund and booking amount needs to be returned on time

*2026-01-06, version 19.6.0*

Booking amount should not be locked until hosts confirms the car. Many times host rejects booking and we need to manage with available options and booking amount gets locked and we will have to wait 7-10 days.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-12-10, version 19.2.0*

Worst app such a scam .first they let you pay then they just cancel the booking and they dont even refund you the funds .. 
after paying they say its non refundable

### 1/5 — Very bad customer service

*2025-12-09, version 19.2.0*

I uploaded my documents for verification more than a week ago. Have been calling customer service to get the documents verified. Same response from all reps that documents look fine, and we will mark the profile as verified within the hour. Nothing happens on the account after that. After attempting for 5 days, still no response. Reservation date is few days away. This is unnecessarily stressful and considering cancelling my reservations and looking at other alternatives.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-12-04, version 19.2.0*

They said refund issued but it never got into our bank account

### 1/5 — Review

*2025-11-30, version 19.2.0*

Worst customer care support

### 1/5 — Return time is not flexible

*2025-11-30, version 19.2.0*

I made a reservation for 12 days to pick up the car in the airport. I want to return 2 hours earlier that the return time shown in the booking. 
I called the host and he said he cannot do it and I should talk to Zoomcar. Zoomcar support has a few canned answers but no other support beyond that. What a joke. 
I am glad they have free cancellation. Hope cancellation works and I don’t have to dispute with credit card company.

### 1/5 — Host is. Fraud

*2025-11-12, version 19.0.2*

The car was in a bad condition, fast tag was had negative balance, stepny was not present, had multiple speeding tickets almost 10k( police caught and told).. this guy till u return the car will talk and then will block ur number once u return , Uday is a big fraud .. plz dont take his Brezza..

### 1/5 — 🚨 CRIMINAL SYNDICATE & CAR THIEVES - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

*2026-07-10, version 22.0.1*

Zoomcar is running a massive organized crime syndicate and nexus with fake guests to steal vehicles! My first car (Nexon) crashed and has been rotting in their garage for 8 months since January. They maliciously closed my claim saying "checklist not filled". How on earth can a host fill a drop checklist when a crashed car never reaches the drop location? It's a pathetic excuse to avoid payouts!

It gets worse. For my second car (Thar), I explicitly CANCELLED the booking twice suspecting fraud. Yet, Zoomcar forcefully allocated it, and their own customer care bypassed me to start the trip for the guest! That guest turned out to be a hardcore criminal who mortgaged my car the very next day and is currently in jail for a rape case! Zoomcar claims they do "ID verification" but they literally hand over your cars to rapists and dacoits.

Both my cars are gone. I am fully prepared and proceeding with massive legal action against them for heavy compensation. They will pay dearly for this. DO NOT LIST YOUR CAR HERE, THEY WILL STEAL IT!

### 1/5 — Terrible SCAM

*2026-06-29, version 21.1.0*

Do not rent.  They will charge you a large deposit and never give it back to you.

### 1/5 — Worst case scenario

### 1/5 — Hard to find support options

*2026-05-25, version 21.0.0*

Really hard to find any support . No options on app to contact anyone

### 1/5 — Worst Car rental app..

*2026-05-02, version 20.6.0*

STAY AWAY ITS A SCAM APP..I booked a car and paid 21144 for the booking firstly it was showing car will arrive at 9am then after paying the money it said car will arrive at 4pm.. I waited at the airport with my old mum,wife and 2 kids.. Called the support more than 15times no help at all..all the customer service reps were rude and kept on disconecting the call abruptly.. Car arrived at 4pm but could’nt start a trip as the support kept declining my genuine documents.. I am a tourist and provided my Indian DL, aadhar card, international DL also my international drivers permit but they kept declining and gave no reason. The booking still shows under verfication. I had to hire a different car from a nearby rental and continue my trip to Munnar.. PATHETIC APP..PATHETIC CUSTOMER SERVICE.. I NEED MY FULL REFUND..
