Great Discover agent and service Appalling EXER Paphos service

I booked a vehicle via Discovery from EXER Paphos Airport. The experience we had with EXER is by far the worse I have ever had with a rental company. I travel frequently to all Continents. Firstly we had to wait 15 minutes for them to meet us at the airport and then it was a further 15 minutes to collect the car. It was after nightfall and the rental place was up an ill-lit dirt track in the middle of nowhere. The rental company said that they would not let us have the rental SUV (which was smaller model to the one we booked) as we had too much luggage. I said to them that I still wanted the vehicle and that I would book a taxi to take the additional luggage with some of the passengers to our villa. They still refused to let me have the vehicle and said that they would not honor the booking. They were extremely rude and became aggressive and that troubled me and my family due to the isolated location of their showroom. They refused to further engage with me at all and they only agreed to take us back to the airport after my mother in law, who is in her mid 80s, pleaded with them. However, on a positive note, Mario, who is an agent with Discover, efficiently processed my claim and today indicated that the full payment would be refunded. I give the above five stars to Mario (dependent on the funds being placed in my account over the next few day) and zero stars for EXER. Discover Cars should never use EXER Paphos Airport again due the traumatic experience we encountered which has similarities to what other persons who have written reviewed about the appalling service they have had to endure at EXER Paphos.
