I'm a Europcar VIP elite and I can tell you I just don't bother with them anymore. Of late it's cough upgrades, expensive rates (even with 15% discount code) and often fighting with them to refund stolen money (bullcrap fuel and additional day scams are common, not to mention their forte ... charging for non existent damage or existing damage). I just booked another two day hire with Hertz, even though I'm Hertz base (gold plus or whatever it's called) and I also have a Hertz PC comp up my sleeve, but with Uber rates, I'm finding I just don't need it at the moment. Park your VA comp status 'till it's needed is my advice. Unless you are a very understanding and patient person who doesn't mind being ripped off, I'd advise letting Europcar slide from your decision making nodes!
